When your band starting out and climbing you way up from shows with no audience to shows with bigger audiences, the idea that your going to play a prestigious baseball stadium like Wrigley Field can not be a reasonable thought but it certainly can be a dream. Next weekend, a dream for many Fall Out Boy fans becomes a reality when they pride of Wilmette takes the stage at the ‘Friendly Confines’.
It’s been such an important moment for FOB that they released a new EP aptly titled ‘Lake Effect Kid’.
You know the world can get my bones but Chicago gets my soul.

Before they became a worldwide sensation, FOB climbed their way up by their suburban boot straps, building a dedicating following locally before venturing far from the 630, 773, 708, and 312s they were used to. This video with wonky audio oozes that era when Chicago got to have this wondrous band to ourselves before we had to share them with everyone else. It shows the band on Halloween 2003 playing a packed audience who is singing every single world and crowd surfing to the ceiling on the sweaty Knights of Columbus in Arlington Heights,IL.
