Fall Out Boy Blogs On Lack Of Grammy Nominations
Fall Out Boy Pete Wentz has been blogging about having to play at People Magazine's Grammy nominations party despite his band received no nominations in the US's annual music awards fest.
He wrote: "The first reaction is jealousy mixed with a slight sense of entitlement. We just want to be a part of your club. Other than the fact that we play the events for you and the right parties all the time (which is a bit embarrassing either for you or us, not sure which, possibly both, it's kind of like being invited to a birthday party and then not allowed to eat the cake) - it shouldn't mean much".
But playing down the importance of Grammys, he continued: "We want our songs to be immortal and a statue doesnt do anything to help them live forever. A fifty year old white man shouldn't decide whether we are relevant or not- and he doesn't. We wanted to thank you for making us feel relevant - for sitting up all night to get into our shows and for buying our music. It means more in the wake of moments like this. We know who we are based on those who would walk through hell with us".
