**** to include FOB's version of "Beat It"...
A cover of Michael Jackson's "Beat It" is among the tracks on ****, Fall Out Boy's first live release. Due April 8th, the project will be available as a CD/DVD or DVD only. "Beat It" is a studio version featuring a "special guest guitarist" yet to be named.
**** was taped on June 22, 2007, at Phoenix's Cricket Pavilion. Beyond the band's own hits, a wide array of covers are included, such as Akon's "Don't Matter," Timbaland's "One and Only" and Panic At The Disco's "I Write Sins, Not Tragedies." A tracklist is below.
The DVD includes all eight Fall Out Boy music videos, behind-the-scenes footage and a making-of segment for the "Me & You" video, which was filmed in Uganda.
"Before watching ourselves on film we never really realized how much we swear," bassist Pete Wentz wrote on the band's blog, by way of explaining the strange title for the upcoming release. "It's pretty gross ... though it's edited as to not hurt your little munchkin ears. And as for how to say the name, well any little four letter word will work."
