Win A Chance To Open for Fall Out Boy (in the U.S.)

From hyping it with a mixtape to recently earning the world record for most interviews in a 24-hour period, Chicago emo punk heart throbs Fall Out Boy have taken some unorthodox routes in the promotion of their upcoming third album, Folie A Deux. Now, the band are running a contest where unsigned bands can win an opening slot at each show on Fall Out Boy’s upcoming American tour.

Here are the details: fans submit a MySpace page of their band here, and then Fall Out Boy choose a winner to open for them in each city on their upcoming tour. Though no Canadian dates are included, this model will likely be a success and hopefully pan out to when they do announce some Canadian shows.

Folie A Deux was originally scheduled to hit shelves this week but has been pushed back to a December 16 release date.

Fall Out Boy’s tour dates:

11/6 Allston, MA – Harper’s Ferry
11/7 Philadelphia, PA – Northstar
12/4 Seattle, WA – Paramount Theater
12/6 Denver, CO – Ogden Theatre
12/11 Del Ray Beach, FL – City Limits
12/12 Orlando, FL – House of Blues
12/13 Ft. Lauderdale, FL – BankAtlantic Center
12/14 Detroit, MI – Fillmore
