Pete Wentz Fan Club!!!!!!

Sign in to disble this ad
ok. i know of him, but never payed attenation to his music let alone his bass parts. however, he plays a pink and black p bass (obivously paying homage to bret hart of the hart foundation) and i think that in itself is worth having devoted fan club members. i want to hold a contest of sorts.... i will buy a BT'er a fall out boy cd if they can recorded better bass parts for any fall out boy hit single. i guess the songs would be hosted somewhere and we'll hold a poll of some type.i think this is a good way to debute our newest club on TB!

rules are...

1. one entry per player
2. parts must fit the song.
3. solos are ok, but need 2 bass tracks and must be bass solos, not guitar solos on bass.
4. pete wentz can not take part in the contest.
5. conUSA only.
6. Bonus points if you record the parts on his signature squire pbass!!!!!!!!!!!!
7. all entries must be submitted by 7.1.2008
8. upon winning, you will have a choice of digital download or physical delivery. PM when you.

Good Luck!

Michael Lisboa

Its really hard to write a bass part OTHER than following the root note for a Fall Out Boy song. Anything else would just be completely unnecessary! I bet Matt Freeman (Rancid) could melt the face off of Pete Wentz with one riff over a FOB song, though! Although...doesn't nearly write as catchy songs!

that is why we're going to make fallout boy's music more interesting. think of it as.... sugguesting alternatives to playing solely off the root, 5th, and ocative. who knows, maybe he'll use these basslines. i'm sure he needs them lol.

yeh.... and the pink & black combo are the colors of greatness. we need to lay down these bass parts guys. i'm also thinking of setting up the fallout boy bassline charity fund. all bass lines donated will be fowarded to pete wentz for new fallout boy songs.
