Scientists <3 Fall Out Boy, Right?

Straight from Pete's mouth -- well, hands -- the deal with "7 Continents" has been revealed. I kind of overestimated it, but it's still pretty cool. Seeing as they've already played on 6 of the 7 continents, they decided to be the first band to play all 7 by doing a show in Antarctica... at a research station.

 

According to Pete:

as you may have read on other corners of the internet, we are going to play a show at a scientific colony in antartica on march 25. we are making this trip with greenpeace and will attempt to document some of the impacts of global warming. we will be bringing a certified recorder from guinness book of world records and will attempt to be the first band to play a concert on all seven continents. we will be bring a photographer and video equipment to document it....

 

we didnt want to release this news officially until we had squared the entire trip away as weather patterns and other factores make confirmation more than a few weeks out difficult, but this news was released on other websites - so we decided to give you the most accurate story. more info coming shortly.

Maaaaan... if you're a scientist who lives in a colony in Antarctica and you're a Fall Out Boy fan? You're set. You're going to get some sweet-ass Fall Out Boy action next week and it's going to rule for you. However, seeing as I don't get the feeling we have a large readership based in Antarctic scientific colonies, chances are this does not apply to you at all, and really doesn't mean much.

 

Two other thoughts:

01. I bet we are the #1 emo site in Antarctica.

02. Pete can't spell.
