The lone date that has been canceled is May 1 in Sacramento, Calif.; refunds are available at points of purchase. “Unfortunately, because of some personal issues we had to delay the tour a few weeks,” Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz says in a statement. “We want to put on the best possible show we can and know that this… Read more »

It’s not a stretch to say that on their epic climb to the top of the Billboard albums chart, Fall Out Boy have shed their fair share of blood, sweat and tears – spending nearly five years crisscrossing the country in vans, buses and airplanes will do that to you . But on next month’s tour, they’ll be focusing primarily on the red stuff. Taking a (pretty awesome) page from the Kiss playbook – or, more specifically, the Kiss comic book – FOB will be tapping their veins for a contest, one in which they’ll mix their own blood with… Read more »

Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz is far more recognizable than the average rock band bassist. With jet-black asymmetrical bangs, slightly smeared eyeliner and a toothy grin, Wentz certainly makes for a memorable image, but it’s his public antics that have created such an unforgettable impression. “I honestly don’t care what the perception is of me to the world,” says the 27-year-old, while sipping on a Starbucks’ vanilla latte on a rainy day in New York City. “It’s a weird thing to have come to, but after you’ve gone through the ringer so many times you don’t care. But I do… Read more »

Justin Timberlake scores his third No. 1 hit from the Jive album “FutureSex/LoveSounds” this week as “What Goes Around, Comes Around” zooms 8-1 in its 11th week on the Hot 100. The cut also enjoyed a 143% sales gain and a 9-1 climb on the Hot Digital Songs tally following its performance on the Feb. 11 Grammy Awards. Back on the Hot 100, Ludacris’ “Runaway Love” featuring Mary J. Blige, which was also performed during the Grammys, rises 5-2. Last week’s chart-topper, Nelly Furtado’s “Say It Right,” drops to No. 3, followed by a No. 4 re-entry for the Dixie… Read more »

Last week, Fall Out Boy’s Infinity on High usurped Norah Jones’ Not Too Late – the previous week’s #1 – as the nation’s top-selling LP, relegating the jazzy songstress to the chart’s #2 position and scoring the Chicago rockers the first chart-crowning debut of their careers. This week, Jones returned the favor. With nearly 211,000 copies of Not Too Late sold during the album’s third week of release, Jones reclaims Billboard‘s coveted throne, leaving Fall Out Boy in the proverbial dust. Sales of Infinity on High dipped by more than 50 percent, dropping FOB to the chart’s #5 slot with… Read more »

When Fall Out Boy released their third full-length album, From Under the Cork Tree, no one realized just how well the LP would do. It ended up being one of the surprise breakout hits of 2005 and sold more than 2.5 million copies in the U.S. alone – making for much less surprising first-week sales totals for the band’s follow-up effort, Infinity on High. With close to 260,000 copies flying off record store shelves last week, FOB’s Infinity on High has earned the Chicago rockers a career first: a #1 debut on Billboard ‘s albums chart – a debut one… Read more »
