so far most of these comments have all been so mixed it doesnt make sense anymore..., music isnt about popularity or skill, its about whether you like how it sound or not. if you dont like it, dont bother with it, if you do then carry on. Also, this performance is a bit pants cos its one of the first times they play it live, as the presenter states.
Balorc seriously bro are u STONED or something. like the things u said about fall out boy and pete i pretty much agreed but all of a sudden u mentions A7X having no talent. i think something hit your head seriously. They may have some easy parts on a few songs but it always ends up hard later on some parts of the song. not only the solo but also individually if u know a lil about music. maybe matt needs a lil more work but the rest of them are more than talented enough. think before speakin
I like Fall Out Boy but I must say, I think most Fall Out Boy fans, especially female fans like Pete because of his looks and so they give him a pass on his bass playing "skills". The bass sound and his playing sounds fucking horrendous. And this is coming from a fan of their who is just being honest. Their best album was their first one and their most recent has a few good songs on it, but songs like "Saturday" are great pop punk fun.
is that the only comeback you could think of? If so your a total idiot. Go on liking what you like but you just tell me to and i quote "Dude, fuckin choke on a dick." and don't explain why and give evdence to back up your comment. They sucked in this song Patric can atleast sing while pete did horriably on this so just deal with it hes useless to this band everyone says that that likes music hes the "sex apeal" nothing more.
oh you want a comeback why doesnt someone pull a john lenon on your ass. Pete wentz is like the best base player ever! If you can put up a video and prove that your better or why not become famous then i will apalogize you f'in loser. And for your information he's the song writter of the band so this song wouldnt be possible without him or any other song this band has for that matter.
ok pal first of all you spelt bass wrong (base like what were you thinking) this comment is a god damn month old i dont care past 4 days about what the hell you think. I dont get it Pete sucks and everyone loves him get it through your head. HE CAN'T PLAY THE GOD DAMN BASS (NOTICE BASS NOT BASE).
Second of all your just a frickn 5 minute fan i have been into fallout boy ever since they started and i cant belive you would judge my comment. Get a life and a damn ear for music. Respond i dare you.
Um jeez soooorryyyy cause someone cant make a mistake everyonce in a while Bass your highness and no im not just a 5 minute fan as you say. I do have an ear for music i'm a freaking music major!!! He does not freaking suck every think it may be the camera might be too close? Listen to one of they're Cd's they sound great! Quit being childish get a life what are you 6? Oh and by the way if you dont even care about the past 4 days then why did you respond in the first place?
... i just realized there is a thing to see when people posted on your comments dude ok your not a music major and if you are you must have failed or have been failing because hes very very bad everyone did bad in this song but its forgiven in other performances but pete is not very good im sorry i know kids that are 14 with more talent he doesnt play much and trys too hard he cant sing when hes playing and hes edited on cd trust me i looked it up
DO NOT TELL ME WHAT I AM OR AM NOT I AM A MUSIC MAJOR! Fine I'll give you maybe he's not the best but give him SOME credit. This whole arguing thing is kinda weird dont you think I mean read the comments we left and have a good laugh I mean I did
Ok sure say your a music major but he deserves no credit he has no musical talent im sorry. So pull that major back out of your tight ass and realise that hes no damn good no matter what your or the millions of crazy fan girls say. sure he has sex appeal and that attracts a ton of people to concerts but he's only an icon for falloutboy most people only listen for pete i listen for lyrics and amazing vocal talent. He has nothing to contribute sound wise in live performances but he adds sex appeal
First of all I didnt even know about Pete I listened to the music and the lyrics then I looked them up and I found out all that stuff about him being the composer and all that jazz so what he has sex appeal I dont give a shit if he has one eye and has your dumb ass face he has musical talent weather you like it or not you JERK!
What musical talent and name calling is not in order. He has none name one time he was good in this performance. He's useful to the band because he can get a full concert house but thats about it. No other than that he's useless really listen to the crowd patrick does not get heavy cheers for anyone when he sings but pete does for all the girls. that means they are only there for him and they played their worst songs in this performance, and to prove your a fan name some songs.
Uhhh how many times do i have to say this he's the com-po-ser. Name calling? May I remind you: "So pull that major back out of your tight ass." May not be name calling but it sure was an insult. For your information Im a huge Patrick fan he's a really good singer and I never said they were the best live sure but the recording is awsome.
Im still wating for thoese song names. Hurry up and get your cd and list them off im wating. Good for you hes a bad composer then. Hell im a composer. That doesnt mean im good at it , but i can do it im into all types of music i can tell anyone and their type. yours happens to be top ten list listner and dont try to change my mind i can lay out good arguments and fast. so for the love of god convience me or just give up. i havent heard a good point to prove me wrong yet.
PLEASE PLEASE I beg of you not to mistake me for that type of person I love every kind of music- exept mariachi (gag)
7 minutes in heaven
Bang the doldrums
I dont even want to list them all they are good songs and I would die happy if I just ended up writting a song that even comes close to being one like he wrote. To top it all off I dont have to prove you wrong its not my job.
But you start to tell me im wrong you obviously want to prove a point. 2 songs right off an album list. let me.

Chicago is so two years ago
calm before the storm
please do not dissagree with me i am more in tune with music and fallout boy have been my favorite band for the longest time i didnt just jump on the train and said ill get off talent and stay on loving something thats not good just because i like a band they are amazing but you would'nt listen to petes solo carrer.
To be honest I would listen to Pete but probably not for long the thing thats bothering me about this whole thing is that you wont even recognize that he's a good musician past the point of average yet not good enough to go solo that my whole issue.
But i do not belive he's any good you havent convienced me. I don't belive he is because of solid reasons. So feel free to convience me but it wilol be very hard ive done my research. list musical qualties that he has and plucking random strings like he has no clue where the clitoris of a lover is is not a talent and wailing like a dying animal isint either. Go listen to some death cab for cutie live and the quality on ever member is good and everything but pete in fob is good DCFC are live gods
you know what? WHATEVER I'm really tired of this we've been going at it for a while and your just like my best friend stubborn as a mule nothing gets through your heads when you convince your self of something that can be argued about you egotistical people its annoying! You ever think that its just your opinion that others might think differently?
Hey I dont need to calm down Im calm OK? wait the band wouldnt be famous if there wasnt some talent to begin with lets say Brittney spears 5 years ago some talent then corrupt but she wouldnt even be famous if she didnt have some talent to begin with so....HA!
Ha what Fall out boy had talent but pete didnt. ok liet me explain lots of bands have no talent and get cd records because of looks or popularity like Avenged Seven Fold they are not good and they are popular. So no you dont need talent to get popular on cd watch their older stuff they are not the best ever and pete hasnt changed from them he just drags them down brittney spears had no talent trust me she is very edited and "pretty" so bam record deal she got better but is still not the best.
Yes they do or they wont be recognized at all Avenged Seven Fold (never heard of them) probably had atleast one good song I am 100 percent sure they probably did.
OMG are you serious!?! XD haha do you acctually don't think that Avenged Sevenfold are good? You obviously don't have clue about music. I would really like'd to see you pull of a Synyster Gates solo, hey why dont you try the afterlife solo. Don't talk about things you don't got a clue about anyway.
Don't diss them, just cuz they're not the best live, okay? I mean, they try the best they can, and they do that really good, and nobody is perfect live.
Pete has all the stage presence of a good front man, but has admitted himself that he's not a great bass player. However, the sound tech should have tweaked his bass a little on the mixing board, just turned it down a bit so it wouldn't jarr so badly with the rest of the guys, because there were a couple of moments when that bass just made me cringe. But, no one is perfect and it's still a good performance. Thank you for posting.
ok i dont usally comment videos but im sick of all the teenie bopping pete wentz lovers saying that petes bass playing is fine. ok he uses a fender Pbass and a god damn ampeg cabinet ok so yeah his bass playing sucks and no the the bass hes using is a fender not squier so yeah it sucks. and yeah i do like fall out boy so this like isnt because i hate them or anything
He actually plays through a Fender cab... and has been known to play Squiers sometimes on stage, and more notably in the Thnks Fr Th Mmrs vid... but yeah, his playing here was pretty suck lol
No he plays through an Ampeg head and cab.....and he plays with his signature bass....which is a squire.....and it sounds exactly as his tone here......it sucks
no no i saw on the fender website he uses thier one head and thier one cab thats for bass. i saw them live when their first record was out in a mall and at mojoes, and that was ampeg but that was then so i dunno. i hate them now
haha everyone thinking they know everything about a bass when they most likely have know idea. 1. Pete is a terrible live bass player, Joes guitar doesn't get cut off, it just gets turned down and yes petes bass is turned up. Crappy sound desk guy if you ask me, plus then venue isn't made for live bands its made for theatre so the sounds bouncing back. oh well.
by the sounds of things petes bass is rather loud, but it's the nasty clinkyness that's coming through and cutting everyone else out. it's because pete strums hard on the neck and the string hit the fret board. more of a soundman fuck up as well with it being that loud.
why does everyone bag on Pete? He's really amazing. Maybe Patrick should just sing louder...or maybe its Joe's guitar...or Andy's drums! Well I think they sound AWESOME and I wouldnt change a thing.
always they sond amazing
