I have no idea how these things end up being reported, but Patrick said, "contrary to popular belief there are no scantily clad girls around, except maybe on computer screens." Oh yeah. No word on who has to eat the cookie most often.
Patrick was speaking to TV Hits magazine when this came up, and there was an actual context -- but that's boring. He preceded his admission that the band watches Internet porn before shows with, "I think people have a misconception of what everything is like behind the curtain. They think there is more back there. It's really cold and very bland and there are no strippers or poker or wind machines that blow tunnels of money."
For the record, I am pretty sure nobody thinks there are wind machines that blow tunnels of money backstage at Fall Out Boy shows.
Further, Patrick said the band mostly watches DVDs when they're on their bus -- but insists it is not porn. I guess that would be a bit weird, since he says the lounge area is rather small, and it might be overkill since they're getting down with the dirty stuff before the show.
I mean, a band can only be so close before it starts to get creepy.
