Bassist running rule over Hard Rock Calling hopefuls
Pete Wentz has found another way to spend his time outside of side-project The Black Cards while Fall Out Boy are on haitus – by becoming a battle of the bands judge.
The bassist will judge bands competing for the chance to play Hard Rock Calling festival, which takes place in London's Hyde Park on June 24-26. Heats are taking place in Hard Rock Cafes worldwide.
For the UK heat Starsailor’s James Walsh will also be on the judging panel. See Hardrock.com for more information.
