sounds like you just need a php location? this works like a charm.

server {
listen 80;
server_name foo.com;
index index.php index.html;
root /home/foo/web/foo.com;
include /etc/nginx/defaults.conf;
include /etc/nginx/expires.conf;
try_files $uri $uri/ /wordpress/index.php?q=$uri;
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:11000;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi.conf;
}
}
