Wentz: 'Fall Out Boy tour is cursed'

Rex Features

Pete Wentz has claimed that Fall Out Boy's current tour of the US is "a little bit cursed".

Speaking to The Aquarian, the bassist and frontman revealed that the band and their crew had suffered numerous mishaps and injuries while on the road with their 'Believers Never Die, Part Deux' show.

"It’s actually been a little bit cursed. We’ve had two trips to the hospital and we’ve had a show that was cancelled due to lightning," he said.

"There was a food poisoning that ran rampant through one bus and then someone broke their ankle, or did something to their ankle."

Wentz went on to say that the group had invited a shaman to "bless the tour" and that they were "making the opposite of voodoo dolls".

He added: "There’s a bit of a hex on this tour, but the show’s nuts. We’re doing anti-rain dances. We’re going to make it happen. We need this show blessed."
