Wentz breaks foot, shows to go on as planned

Contributed by buzznet. Posted by aubin on Tuesday, October 30, 2007 at 7:00 PM (EDT)

Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz broke his foot during the band's performance at the Voodoo Festival in New Orleans this past Sunday evening. Though the injury is pretty gross, Pete does not plan to sit any shows out and the band's upcoming tour will go on as scheduled.

The band released Infinity on High this year.

So last week Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson came into my certain corporate coffee house I was working at...it was pretty funny. The dude is like, 5'7"...and then later, Plain White T's and Cute is What We Aim For came in...then I realized they were playing my city that night....then it all made sense.

He got a vanilla soy latte...pussy.

I'm putting together a skate-punk compilation for a radio show, and I'd love some input; stuff along the lines of older Strung Out, 88 Fingers Louie, Jughead's Revenge, etc. Fire away.

thebiglebowski (October 30, 2007)

I like heartbreaking music, but it doesn't fit in skate punk for me. The song is too serious.

Instead, I would go with Coffee and Cigarettes.

Thanks, everyone - keep 'em coming!

telegraphrocks (October 30, 2007)

How is the visual of his foot gross? It's barely fucking bruised.

You wanna see gross pictures, come visit my medical cabinet of fractured and shattered bones, plus surgical photos... that's some gross shit:

- pictures of shattered (not broken, but SHATTERED) left foot with one bone coming through the bottom of my foot.
- pictures of my knee DURING reconstructive surgery.
- pictures of my knee imediately after.
- pictures of me knee when one of the screws popped through the skin.

And I've got about two dozen others.

I don't know what my point here is, but I just wanna say "fuck Pete Wentz". You broke your goddamn foot, boo-hoo. There's gonna be a million teenage girls wanting to suck his dick to make him feel better, meanwhile I'm limping around my house alone with severe rheumatoid arthritis eating my joints and

pete loves ass diving into bandmates asses, he found a refrigerator and a big deodorant once. not to mention a jeep and a trash can in bassist's ass

i just entered the site and the "band of the moment" is Bob Marley... up da punkx!!

MsJustinChris (October 30, 2007)

People who continue to play on broken limbs usually end up making the injury worse. With any luck, he'll break his foot clean off.

haha i like how so many people want to hurt him. i mean, it's kind of sad, but still.
