Bunbury Music Festival in Cincinnati, OHIO is three days: Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Each night there is one headlining act where no other bands/artists are playing. On Friday, that band was Fall Out Boy. I’d seen Fall Out Boy at Bunbury in the past and they always put on a great show, so it was really exciting to have them come back and headline again.
Fall Out Boy played a nice mix of newer songs, and older ones, including “Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy?” which I reference in the graphic above. It’s always great when artists play some of their older stuff along with the new…after all, some of those songs are what made them famous! Another slightly older song they played was “Sugar, We’re Goin’ Down” which is definitely the song that made them most known, I think.
In Cincinnati, whenever the Reds play a Friday night game, they have Fireworks Friday. That means that fireworks start going off after the game, and it’s during the final set. Pete Wentz was aware that fireworks went off when the Reds had a home run, but he obviously didn’t realize why there were a ton of fireworks going off. Obviously someone from Bunbury really needs to tell their headlining band on Friday that they will get a fireworks show during their set. At any rate, it was really cool because it was right behind their stage, and it didn’t drown out the music, so it was kind of like an extra layer to the show. No complaints from me!
It was a great show and definitely a nice way to cap off the first day of Bunbury 2019. Thank you to my sister, Kari, for taking all of the pictures. I did take a small video of them performing “Centuries” which you can see below!

I must admit, I don’t know many Fall Out Boy songs, just This Ain’t A Scene and I love belting that one out. It looks like a brilliant night out though. You would think there would have been better communication so the band or at least their managers knew about the fireworks but sounds as though it ended up working in their favour anyway. Thanks for the wrap up Lauren and thrilled you had such a great night!
Oh man your title is giving me flashbacks to HS! HAHAH! Glad you had fun!
I would love to see Fall Out Boy in concert! I have been listening to them for ages! OMG how awesome! My sister was the one who introduced me to them. She actually loves them more. So glad that you went.
I know at least one of their songs thanks to my girls and I am pretty sure i could sing along! Sounds like fun!
I’d love to see them in concert. Great post!
Fall out Boy would be fun! Takes me back! I checked out the line up and there were a lot of cool shows. Love it! STP takes me back to high school! LOL
This sure looks fun!

I only know one or two of their songs but it sounds like a fun time! And how cool that the fireworks just added to the show. 🙂
I love FOB. I think I’ve seen them four times. They always put on a great show & I’d be happy if they just stuck to music from the first three albums. Haha. Glad you had fun!
YASSS I love this!!
I would like to see Fall Out Boy in concert someday. I want to see Panic! At the Disco more, but my kids would love to see FOB for sure.
Looks like a great time! I did two concerts this year, Michael Buble and NKOTB. Both were great!
I haven’t listened to that many Fall Out Boy songs, but I have a few favorites by them. It’s super cool that you got to see them perform live!
Looks like it was a great concert!
I’m not a huge Fall Out Boy fan but over the past year or so I’ve listened to the album American Beauty/American Psycho (start to finish) at least once a week… Sometimes it’s daily, mostly when I’m cooking. It’s the perfect length to make a meal and potter in the kitchen.
I absolutely adore it and it’s one of the only albums that I can listen to like that… It’s become part of my daily ritual, a little slice of sanity. It’s weird but it is what it is, lol.
I’d want to see them live but I’d want them to perfrom that album, in correct track order. Anything else just would not do. ? Although, I do like a few of their other songs… Just not entire albums!
This is so cool. I love Fall Out Boy.
Ha! That’s awesome they got free fireworks as an addition to their show lol. I saw FOB in concert once like ten years ago. This sounds like it was a great concert! I also love when artists play some older songs 🙂
I LOVE this so much!! I saw FOB ages ago, back in high school. They’re so fun and such great performers!
