Fall Out Boy Thinking Of Antarctica 2?

Fall Out Boy had to abandon their record breaking feat of being the first band to play Antarctica, but now they're seriously contemplating a second try. The band was close to pulling the first-of-a-kind feat off, and they even had an official for the Guinness Book Of World Records there to certify it. After dragging a crew of 15, weather conditions forced the band out of their slot and they didn't have the resources to wait an additional week or so to pull it off.

Video clip :

At the time, Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz was bummed, but does he think the band will make another attempt at the record?

Pete Wentz On Failed Antarctica Trip

"I think so. I think the interesting thing is that when you make an attempt...it's boring to watch people win all the time. It was a bummer when it happened, but I think the great thing about it, the attempt, is that you keep trying and hopefully we'll do it again."

Fall Out Boy recently released their first live DVD/CD ****: Live In Phoenix, and the collection features a cover of Michael Jackson's Beat It.

so basically they aren't good enough to make music that will be remembered so they are trying to be remembered by doing something completely pointless...

[Vrstone87]

They will be remember for being one of, if not the worst band out there.

[Footzyrama]

Seems a bit pointless if you ask me, Doubt they will get a very big turn out.

[DieGarbageMan]

there already in the records for worst band, why do they want another?

[Tyler Durden]

who would go to see that crap

[ApeOfJustice]

I hope someone else beats them to it.

[!normajean!]

who is there in Antarctica to play too? Russian scientists?

if we just ignore them...maybe...just maybe...they'll go away.

[megadethdefying]

At the time, Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz was bummed

Well its nice to know that although it failed, he had a good time out there.

[godberry]

epic fail!!! they aren't hardcore enough. i bet a metal band like Slayer could pull this off. but then we would have to fear the ice caps melting.

Shut the FUCK up, you total ****ing moron.

I can't stand the stick that some bands get on these columns, there's nothing wrong with what Fall Out Boy are doing. If it was, say, Red Hot Chili Peppers doing this everyone would be like "Cool!" but because it's a band who it's cool to hate on, everyone's giving them stick for it.

Best of luck to 'em.

That's because people actually like the music that RHCP make.

[blair30]

This is the most ridiculous idea I have ever heard.

Surely their fingers would succumb to frost bite before they even finish one song?

im not a big fan of them, but i think they are good at what they do,
writing catchy pop songs

[Regression]

Fall Out Boy recently released their first live DVD/CD ****: Live In Phoenix

lol wut. Is that actually part of the title? Or does the writer of this article just not like them? Would have been much cooler if they filmed their dvd in Antarctica. Anyway, I see a flamefest coming on, I better leave fast.

[tands]

this is a lame publicity stunt, seriously for musicians you dont get much less creative then this

[oxJDxo]

You may be the first person ever to say the RHCP suck

[TomleHat]

The day they leave for Antarctica I'm sending out my best icebergs. Anyone who thinks I don't like Fall Out Boy would be completely wrong, my idea will actually save them money coz it'll make it a one way trip.

[webbtje]

Am I the only one immature enough to find that funny?

Quite apart from my opinion of these guys, good luck to them.

[connorlawhorne]

I thought some band already did this during live earth. and also for the people saying there won't be a big turn out, etc. they are not going to play for people...they film it and broadcast it, or probably just film it and put it on youtube.

But...I'm not gonna flame the band on this...i just came to look.

I can see where you think FOB suck, and even though I don't agree with your opinion you've got every right to have one, but RHCP actually are musicians who play their instruments correctly, and you can't argue with that.

[ApeOfJustice]

These guys are pretty much the worst musical envoys we could send to the Antarctic. What if the penguins think we like Fall Out Boy?!

[AzzA2006]

ROFLMAO

its funny coz its true

[False_God]

*Waits for alot of users to we hit with banstick*

Honestly, they are a ok band, if you dont like them, dont like but stfu about it. Dont even know why ye came in despite not liking them.

I said best of luck to them, would be cool to pull it off.

[connorlawhorne]

in response to TjGK, i have heard quite a bit of fall out boy that involves more than power chords, and either way i would imagine power chords being hard to play bazillions of degrees below zero anyway (non-existent number used for dramatic effect).

[WhiteStripesIII]

Antarctica's already been played.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nunatak_%28band%29

Is there something I'm missing?

[r3conmarine90]

People are just bashing on FOB because its "uncool" to like them even though they have legitimate music. Basically all these retards are jumping on the bandwagon against any bands that the 'cool' musicians rag on. If they were real musicians they'd appreciate music in general instead of criticizing artists for ludicruous reasons because they themselves are insecure. Nuff said.

Lmao, first of all i don't hate fall out boy because it's cool to. I hate them because there music blows balls. And this totally reminds me of the first dethklok episode.

i found it funny as well dude. but i cant stand FOB, they are terrible. and apparently Antartica has beem played, ass WhiteStripesIII said. i think that rules them out of the record then

[ashowe]

Fall Out Boy has a record deal and millions of dollars. Any of you haters ever been able to make that claim truthfully?

Anyone?



Didn't think so!

[FenderMaster]

the haters are even worse than FOB themselves

[stuzy21]

that doesn't make them artists, they just write what they know the majority of people in this country will listen too. That doesn't impress me too much.

Just because I enjoy playing guitar doesn't mean I want to be a millioniare in a band.... I make a good living and I'm happy with it.

[Dinkydaisy]

How thoroughly and utterly pointless. Why not spend the resources that would be wasted playing there on a gig which more people can enjoy? Better yet, use the money to fund a protection program for Antarctica. Playing there can only do the continent bad.

[CaTeArS]

someone should beat them to it definitally. I bet a band like the RHCP or Iron Maiden, or some other good band would do a better job, and maybe have the "resources" strange.

[gnome_hovel7]

I'm with you.

[Multiplayerjon]

I agree w/ Zapfire.... It's really annoying when all this "emo" Shit is on... ppl think this Panic at the Disco is emo as well becuase they have emo hair cuts... well i was looking at my bands iLike (Pickled Fat and Placid Crate (Trogdor tab on here too)) and i was posting a gig when i see onlike the very top of the scroll is antarctica and i told my band-mate and best friend derek that we should play there and play for the penguins... this is rediculis...

Screw F.O.B.

[NOTxTHATxGUITAR]

God yout such a bunch of morons. I happen to like fall out boy for their music and if their music means something to someone out there then they won't be remebered as the worst band. They will definitely be remembered as the band everyone thought it was cool to hate.

[bricksgrenade72]

Its pretty cool that there doin it, i personally have nothing against them but i wish a better band was doin it... btw Nunatak has already done it so its basically pointless

Checked/banned

Guys!
PLEASE,if you don't like them,don't spam this news.Just don't read it.
Any spamming/flaming=ban

[Vermintide]

Pffft. I'll beat them to it for sure. They couldn't even take a bit of snow, the pansies :p

Or does Guiness discriminate against level of fame?

[munkymanmatt]

doubt many people wud go to see them, partially cos they suck and partially cos it's the worst place to have a concert ever, i.e. its a crap lcimate, and it's expensive to get there

[munkymanmatt]

but really, could Pete Wentz be any more of an attention seeking twat?

yes, he could convince his band to try and play antarctica.....

oh, wait....

LOL I was thinking that

[adslam3]

fob are a decent pop band that got really lucky with the amount of success they have and i think that it would be kinda cool to see a band set a world record, no matter who it is. it's just pathetic the amount of people that leave absurdly generic hating comments because they apparently are so hardcore that they can call people names on an online comment board...you know..like how everyone does in 2nd or 3rd grade. it really doesn't say much about the intelligence and respect of ug users.

[Raizer Sabre]

didn't a band play there for live 8 though? they're obviously a bit slow on the uptake there

[MonsterOfRock]

Even penguins hated them...

Go Penguins!!!

[BGrem261]

poor poor penguins... theyll be cuttin themseleves by show's end...

[Blades Rules!!!]

um...

maybe this has already been said somewhere in all that shit-talking above...

but I definitely watched a band play there for Al Gore's 'Live Earth' global concert series on tv.

So, the moot-ness of these attempts aside, it's nice to know they have the money to waste on this.

And that they would put this much effort into something and puss out. Sweet.

And that they would go to a place that is a focal point of the global warming crisis, selfishly contributing to said crisis by flying their posse and gear there and back, etc, so that they could stay relevant in the news or have some wikipedia blurb about it, desperately hoping that history wouldnt forget about them. But no worries, Fall Out Boy. You're timeless.

[roketsox23]

k ime one of these people who doesnt really mind fall out boy, they have some cool catchy songs. not saying this isnt completely pointless, but dont give em shit for just trying something out. its another attempt for attention, just ignore it if u dont like the idea.

i like to read these columns so i know which bastards to stay away from. fUUkers that come into places like these to flame another band are either jealous, or actually have nothing better to do. why can't anybody just appreciate that some people like different music than others? i personally like Fall Out Boy for the most part. Pete is a little odd for me but i like his writing style. I also hope they can pull this show off because A) antartica is a bitch and anybody willing to try this has balls, and B) they thought of it so let them do it.
To back myself up, i usually don't like poppy music, i listen Muse and Lightning Bolt. If you have even heard of the second band then you can try to flame me.
cheers.

[Sleaze Disease]

I thought GWAR already played Antarctica?

[xHellbound]

There's already a band in Antarctica called Nunatak. They're much better than this "Fall Out Boy" band. >_>

[Shakalum]

at least no one is there to hear them.

[GodbowstoMath]

Naaw, I think this is a great idea... in fact, I volunteer to fly them to the nearest ship yard and THEN i'll steer that ol ship on down to Antarctica and just as they realize that no one loaded their gear, i'd kick 'em off that ol ship and turn around, go home and wait for the thank you letters and have a sandwich and a beer to close a good couple of days of work.

[inferi596]

sometimes i think UG just puts fall out boy news up because they're such a hot topic for ppl to vent about. soo...

i'm tired of their publicity stunts. they're good but there are loads of better bands out. they just stick themselves wherever they can in music and in magazines and in the news just to make their mark in history but i think they'll be going down as one of the most dispised bands of all time, not one of the greatest as they (somehow) seem to think.

This is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. This just proves that they are terrible, their music is not good enough to be remembered, so they need to pull of some crappy gimmick to get some more 14 year old girls to buy their records

[Year Zero]

Antartica huh? I've heard some lame ideas but this tops them. I guess since emo is dying taht's the only place they can go for a fan base. That fan base being a couple penguins.

[flea878]

I think we should all be much more supportive of FOB going to antarctica. Its them coming back we should try and stop...

i dont understand some people sometimes. there is no reason to flame a band for any reason, especially if you havn't done anything or achieved anything close to what they have done. People should just learn to shut their mouth.

Are you kidding? RHCP are the worst band ever!

Corporate band made by greedy businessmen. Kurt Cobain would look upon emo music and see the horrors that he could have prevented. FALL OUT BOY IS AWFUL!

[GNRjungle87]

live earth? a band called nunatak played antarctica for live earth lol

sorry fall out boy, you still suck...but at least ur sucking while staying warm.....

[fagelamusgtr]

I dont really like the band, but you have to admit, this is pretty cool. I hope they do it.

[ChucklesMginty]

NOOO it would be a disgrace if they were the first band to play Antarctica!

How can u say RHCP suck? They're one of the best funk/rock bands ever? I agree that Stadium Arcadium was a little step back, but still, dude! They rock hard, listen the album Mothers Milk or Californication? It's ****ing awesome. Plus, they're great musicians. Flea has been seen as one of the best bassist of the world, John F. (its a hard name to spell) is allso ****ing, great and Chad SMith is allso hardcore.

But to all you haters: I DOn't like F.O.B. either, but i don't comment shit, because you know what? They dont give a shit. They whipe their ass' in 100 $ bills and laugh at all you haters. So if you hate them, that cool, but it's called "Ultimate Guitar" not: "Fall out Boy hate-club"

[ApeOfJustice]

Hey wait a minute guys if they go it may very well turn into a dramatisation of 'At The Mountains Of Madness' amirite fingers crossed lolol

Yeah Nunatak already played there , guiness didn't know that? still like someone said i would be much more happy if RHCP did it not this stupid FOB...

well, holy shit mate! guess what?! some people DO like them! I used to be like you, until i actually decided to listen to them with an open mind, not granted ive only heard their singles, but i think theyre pretty damn catchy tbh, good tunes, not ground breaking by any means, but they do what theyre trying to do well.
Although that "a little less 16 candles, a litte mopre touch me" or whatever it was xcalled was absoloutely god awful, although, that might have been panic! :/

I say we start a fund to send the worst band on UG to Antartica, and quick. Someone has to call that guiness guy back up and tell him to drag his ass back down there. Who's in?

I swear they must just put up FOB news when the mods are having a bad day and feel like going on a ban spree.

The record was actually playing on ALL the continents in seven months or something, not just Antarctica.

I have to ask, all the people who hate Fall Out Boy - have you listened to Take This To Your Grave or are you basing this on their singles? Which, to be fair, are sometimes the worst songs on the albums? You can't base your opinion of a band on their radio singles. Although the Pete Wentz thing, totally... he is a bit of a bastard.

checked.

[Soul-Monger]

Didn't they try this originally to prove a point about global warming, though?

[Sox0690]

well, just throwing this out there, they aren't trying to be the first band to play in Antarctica, they are trying to be the first band to play on all seven continents in nine months.

You're all jealous.

because there are a lot of bands that deserve that money more. And just because there is a lot of hate for the band here, doesn't mean the band is generally cool to hate. They have a HUGE fanbase. Why can't the (relatively) small number of people who don't like the band post about it here?

[ChikiChikiwa]

Other than the completely pointless FOB bashing, it's not a half bad idea. I'd give so much money that most of these people who think its a pointless idea, that if one of they're favorite bands tried it, they'd think it was the best idea ever. imo, good luck to them!

This is the most ridiculous idea I have ever heard.

Surely their fingers would succumb to frost bite before they even finish one song?

no because they will be well heated....get this they are doing to to raise awareness for global warming yet they will be using so much energy for their amps and to keep themselves and the crew warm.....
kinda of hypocritical if you ask me....
they should just give up they have no talent and the only people they have left to play to are a few scientists who don't care and some mating penguins

The day they leave for Antarctica I'm sending out my best icebergs. Anyone who thinks I don't like Fall Out Boy would be completely wrong, my idea will actually save them money coz it'll make it a one way trip.

word +1

[dinosaur sr]

the funny thing is that they have enough money to make 2 trips to Antartica

[SynisterSlash92]

ok so those of you who think your cool because you rip on fall out boy, your not. im not a huge fan but they're good at what THEY do which is write pop music. and if they want to play in Antarctica well best of luck to them

[metal_john13]

godberry :
epic fail!!! they aren't hardcore enough. i bet a metal band like Slayer could pull this off. but then we would have to fear the ice caps melting.

yeah! \m/

flea878 :
I think we should all be much more supportive of FOB going to antarctica. Its them coming back we should try and stop...

haha

I can't stand the stick that some bands get on these columns, there's nothing wrong with what Fall Out Boy are doing. If it was, say, Red Hot Chili Peppers doing this everyone would be like "Cool!" but because it's a band who it's cool to hate on, everyone's giving them stick for it.

Best of luck to 'em.

im not a big fan of them, but i think they are good at what they do,
writing catchy pop songsYeah, i can't stand the band, but i don't make it a point to flame them constantly. People who make comments on here need to grow up.


then obviously you need to grow up because you just left a comment...so you are kinda dissing yourself...oh yeah i forgot you like FOB, i don't know why I expected so much from someone with obviously no judgment at all !!!!

First of all you like the redskins that and fall out boy writes good music according to the number one cd's and there grammy nominations. what do you have??

[Zenith Lead]

this is a massive publicity stunt. This is also a massively horrible band. So it equals out. No one will care. i didnt even know they were trying. If you try and fail i believe the moral is to QUIT TRYING! thank you homer simpson.

wow your real mature wishing death on people at least when they die people will care. When you die stray cats and dogs are gonna shit on your grave.

good job on contradicting yourself with incredible maturity. You could just respect people's opinion on this band and let them waste their time trashing them. You're now disputing over relatively irrelivant situation to this subject. very nice.....

[paul_brownell]

i like fall out boy, always have

[Slaytanic6606]

Are they trying to play for penguins or something? I don't understand the purpose of this.

This is kind of like when Dethklok played for fish.

[AvengedThrice]

What the hell? Nunatak has already played in Antarctica.

[JessicaGonzo]

They arnt that great, but why would they want to play in antartica? they should focus on making better music. But if they do play, they will probaly cause more global warming from their horrible bass lines and riffs.

[Raiderkid38]

the penguin community will be very pleased to actually have a show come out to them..... tho they wish to have their lawyers present at the time, that way when their eardrums explode they can file a lawsuit on the spot.....

[Ibzman]

I could care less. It should be mentionned later one above the other; "the first band" and "the first good band that didn't look for publicity because their music interested no one"

[Icarus166s]

They're trying to grab antarctica why? Because Audioslave was the first band to play in Cuba. This is becoming a huge game of risk.

No, they were smart enough to make music marketable to a mass of corporate(MTV) fed teens, not creative.

You'd be surprised. The UGers aren't the only people in existence.

I like all music. And I'm not ashamed to say that I like a bit of FOBs music- I even have their most recent album.

They're making alot more money than any of you are. So apparently they're doing SOMETHING right.

[knights_doom]

first off slayer. sure there awesome and brutal, but they get annoying as hell hearing those blast beats and fast rhythms. You cant compare fall out boy to slayer you idiot. its like comparing a orange and a apple. there both fruits, but they taste different.

But...I'm not gonna flame the band on this...i just came to look.

I can see where you think FOB suck, and even though I don't agree with your opinion you've got every right to have one, but RHCP actually are musicians who play their instruments correctly, and you can't argue with that.

I can argue with that, here it goes: I find the Red Hot Chili Peppers' music to be boring and uncreative. They use the same recycled chord progressions that all other rock bands use. They are all overrated musicians and the singer uses the same pussy voice in every song. Whether or not you agree with me is your opinion, but what you can't argue with is that I just argued with your statement that (to paraphrase) "you can't hate the Red Hot Chili Peppers because they play their instruments correctly."

What is playing your instrument "correctly" suppose to mean anyway?

[BlackSymphony6]

mmm sounds like a good idea.

if their fanbase goes with them and they all freeze to death, hen its two birds with one stone.

.... the icy death of fob and emos

I bet you think it's COOL to dis on a band just cause everyone else is doing it. Well, guess what! IT REALLY, HONESTLY IS NOT!!! Everyone on here flaming Fall Out Boy is just too much of a loser to do anything useful or good for the world, so to make yourselves feel better, you put down a group who has actually had some success. How sad, how sad indeed.

It IS cool to diss them... But really FOB is the degeneration of rock music, seriously

[Matt_1213]

They just want to be like Dethklok with the Coffee gig.

[GoWithTheFlow]

what about the scientists who form rockbands on their spare time. dont they get bored and have some battle of the bands type thing? scientists can be musicians too.
