FOB vs NYPD
Fall Out Boy fought the law in New York’s Washington Square Park on Monday afternoon. the law won, mostly.
After tipping off fans via their official site, the band headed to the landmark Greenwich Village gathering place - acoustic guitars in tow -for a special pop-up gig just hours before their new album, Folie a Deux, went on sale. Unfortunately for FOB and their fans, the NYPD also got the heads-up, and greeted the band with bad news: Without a permit, they wouldn’t be allowed to play.
The show went on, though - sort of. They did a nice little sing-a-long of Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy Tonight? and Pete Wentz even showd pictures of his newborn son from his Blackberry. Not bad, after all.
