I have seen some fantastic American Suiteheart headcannons and that inspired me to share mine on how they became a team.
Dr. Benzedrine was city-born and drug-resistant. He just didn't feel their mind-numbing effects. He was able to hide it for a long time, long enough to get a place at university to become a doctor. He got through the majority of his degree, spending his downtime in the slums helping the poor for free. One day, he let slip that he was planning on using the knowledge he gained to help killjoys in the desert, and BLI found out. That was when he was sent to the Vixens. The Vixens were a special branch of draculoids who dealt with drug-resistant citizens by using powerful mind control techniques to turn them into weapons. They made his trigger music and used him and his influence with the poor of the city to get rid of killjoys at illegal concerts. He was able to get his memories back after coming into contact with one of the people he helped.
That was Sandman. He was a juvie who lived in the slums of the city. He had insomnia from a young age and used a drug known to the juvies as sleep dust to help him get to sleep. This came with some really shitty side effects, including anxiety and mood swings that ended up making him isolated and alone. This went on for years and gave Sandman a horrible reputation for being cold and uncaring. One day, it all got too much, and in a leap of utter desperation, he went to a clinic Doctor Benzidrine was holding. He was able to get Sandman off the drugs and gave him better ways of sleeping. He also saw the loneliness and reached out a hand for companionship. Sandman knew something was up when Benzie stopped coming to visit and set off on a mission to get him back. He heard stories of a monster, one who was once a doctor, killing anyone who set foot in a live music venue and knew that it was his best friend in trouble. He got extremely good at fighting, and his specialty was fighting Vixens, who had an unfathomable strength from their mind control. This is what he used to get through to Benzidrine and get him out of their clutches. They made their way to an exit ready to leave the city but not before meeting Horseshoe Crab.
Horseshoe Crab was well known as a desert-born nuisance within the Battery City slums. He dressed obnoxiously in red and gold, a top hat perched on his head. He had a habit of coming in to cause mischief and then leaving before any draculoids could take him in. His incredible luck meant he never got captured and that inspired a wave of city-born children to become rebels in the city. He befriended a young boy who would come to be known as Fun Ghoul and helped his mother ferry city folk who wanted to escape out of the city. It was on one of these trips that he met Sandman and Benzidrine while they were running away and liked them instantly. They brought the real dangerous villains, the ones he could have fun killing. He got them out of the city with his insanely good luck, but not without getting a bad blaster shot to the shoulder. Luckily, a very capable doctor was close at hand and sorted it out in no time. He felt indebted to the pair after this and vowed to help them through the desert for as long as they needed. Which turned out to be for the rest of his life. He didn't mind because it turned out that these two city boys would become the family he never had.
It was around 6 months later when the trio met Donnie. They found him on the side of the road fixing up an old Trans Am for a young sand pup. He recognized Horseshoe from trips he would make to get supplies from the city, but was wary around the other two who were obviously city born. Horseshoe explained the situation to him and somehow persuaded him to become a member of the team. He was the only one with any knowledge of mechanics and could fix anything with ease. He learned to trust Benzie and Sandman when they got ambushed by some Vixens and fought together as a team for the first time

just realized dr benzedrine/shadow man has a flower in his hat instead of a feather like mr benzedrines, also sports a mask (or stage makeup) like the illustrated version of benzedrine. The hat is way shorter and wider brimmed than mr benzedrines top hat. it looks exactly like a boater hat.
Also, I can't really tell if that white squiggly thing on his chest is a bowtie or something else, it almost looks like a necklace or shirt collar-- to me anyways.
It's fair amount of detail for a shadow monster that appeared for like, 0.5 seconds on screen. Even though Pete said America's suitehearts is just a one off thing and was meant to have to plot, wish they expanded on this world in comic book form or something.

T.W- Emotionally abusive families
Some more American Suiteheart head-canons for your consideration
After his unbrainwashing Dr Benzidrine developed a really bad sound sensitivity. It doesn't set him off into a murderous rage, but it does hurt his head and ears. So he wears noise-canceling headphones out on jobs. Donnie helped make them indestructible, and Sandman encouraged everyone to help decorate them. That arts and crafts session was the start of his emotional healing process.
Sandman still gets bouts of insomnia, especially after claps. His head rushes with thoughts about what could have happened if the clap went wrong. So, instead of fighting it, he keeps a watch. He makes sure no one is gonna jump on them in their sleep. On one of these restless nights, he meets Kobra for the first time. The young kid tries to steal food, and Sandman just lets him take it. He knows what it's like to feel hungry, so just let him go. The kid then returned the following night, and the tradition continued until he found a crew of his own. They never spoke, just shared the food and the quiet of the desert.
Horseshoe was the only survivor from his original crew, and he shouldn't be. He doesn't remember much about what happened, but he does remember the searing pain that came from a huge wound on his thigh. It looked like he should have bled out, but he didn't. That's why he believes in The Phonix Witch. She is the only logical explanation for his survival and constant good luck.
Donnie ran away from his previous crew. They were extremely dangerous, only looking out for themselves. They killed whoever they wanted and stole from any shop they stopped at. This crew took Donnie in after his mother and father died but didn't give him any thoughts while he was there. He never wanted to get violent but was forced to as he grew up. Even when he was an adult, he was pressured to stay. All he wanted to be was a mechanic, so he practiced secretly. He decided to run away at 25 and travelled alone around the desert until he was 28. This is where he met the rest of the team.

so im sure everyones fully well aware of the magic 8 ball site fob is using to promote a contest to win some tickets to see them in nashville. the little 8ball widget theyve got in browser is also modeled on the physical 8ball that they had in the vip merch packages for tourdust's first leg, which is cool! but of particular note is the way that, to fill out the contest form, you have to pick your favorite fall out boy songs. and the sheer breadth of what is allowed is...interesting? it's not cohesive by any means, but it is really wild the selection of songs they have here because not all of them are fob songs. in fact, quite a few of them aren't.
i went directly to the source code and got a full list of all possible songs that you could input (which you can check for yourself by right-clicking and selecting "view source"). i'm going to list them here for archival purposes, with a few notes/explanations cause some of these are WILD.
there are 187 songs total listed.
bolded songs indicate songs that are demos or never received an official release
italicized songs are songs by other bands
underlined songs indicate songs that are covers
songs with an asterisk beside them (*) indicate they are from patrick's solo catalogue. two asterisks (**) are for pete's.
additional commentary by me will be [in brackets]
20 Dollar Nose Bleed 27 7 Minutes in Heaven (Atavan Halen) 7-9 Legendary A Little Less Sixteen Candles, a Little More "Touch Me" A Nice Myth [one of the earliest fall out boy demos, found on their first ep, and only the casette version at that] Allie* Alone Together Alpha Dog America's Suitehearts American Beauty/American Psycho (song) American Made Art of Keeping Up Disappearances As Long as I Know I'm Getting Paid* Austin, We Have a Problem Baby Annihilation Bad Side of 25* Bang the Doldrums Beat It Big Hype* Bishops Knife Trick Bob Dylan Bounce [this is a song that came out on then-Decaydance labelmates The Cab's debut record, Whisper War, which patrick produced. he has writing credit and also is credited with background vocals (and also shows up in the music video)] Caffeine Cold Calm Before the Storm Centuries Champagne for My Real Friends, Real Pain for My Sham Friends Champion Check Your Phone** Chicago is So Two Years Ago Church City in a Garden Coast (It's Gonna Get Better)* Coffee's for Closers Cryptozoology* Cute Girls* Cyanide** [this is a nothing,nowhere song that pete did some spoken word parts and backing vocals on] Dance Miserable* Dance, Dance Dead on Arrival Dear Future Self (Hands Up) Death Valley Deep Blue Love* [song patrick did for the indie short film "spell"] Demigods Disloyal Order of Water Buffaloes Don't You Know Who I Think I Am? Electric Touch [the (in?)famous taylor swift song patrick featured on] Eternal Summer Everybody Wants Somebody* Explode* Fake Out Fame Less than Infamy Favorite Record Fellowship of the Nerd [this is an alternate title for world's not waiting, as far as i can tell] Flu Game Flu Game [yes flu game is listed twice for some reason] Footprints in the Snow [demo from the Llamania ep] Fourth of July From Now on We Are Enemies G.I.N.A.S.F.S. Get Busy Living or Get Busy Dying (Do Your Part to Save the Scene and Stop Going to Shows) Ghostbusters (I'm Not Afraid) Golden Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy Greed* Grenade Jumper Grow Up and Be Kids [this song is on The Cab's sophomore album Symphony Soldier, which release after they left decaydance. nonetheless, pete does have some writing credits on it. give it a listen and you'll hear for yourself in the first 10 seconds or so] Growing Up Hand Crushed by a Mallet [this is a remix of the 100gecs song of the same name; patrick did some vocals for it] Hand of God Have I Got a Gift for You* [song patrick did for the horror movie black friday] Headfirst Slide into Cooperstown on a Bad Bet Heartbreak Feels So Good Heaven's Gate Heaven, Iowa Hold Me Like a Grudge Hold Me Tight or Don't Homesick at Space Camp Honorable Mention Hot to the Touch, Cold on the Inside Hum Hallelujah I Am My Own Muse I Don't Care
I Got Nothing, But You Got Something [this is the one that really perplexes me. there's no evidence of this song actually existing, other than an unverified genius post and an article on a single fandom wiki. it is inexplicably listed here despite its very existence being questionable at best.]
I Slept with Someone in Fall Out Boy and All I Got Was This Stupid Song Written About Me I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me) I'm Like a Lawyer with the Way I'm Always Trying to Get You Off (Me & You) I've Been Waiting [this is technically a lil peep song with fall out boy as a feature] I've Got a Dark Alley and a Bad Idea That Says You Should Shut Your Mouth (Summer Song) I've Got All This Ringing in My Ears and None on My Fingers Immortals Irresistible It's Hard to Say 'I Do', When I Don't It's Not a Side Effect of the Cocaine, I Am Thinking It Must Be Love Jet Pack Blues Just One Yesterday Lake Effect Kid (song) Lake Shore Drive [this is a song patrick covered on the piano at wrigley, first night of tourdust] Love from the Other Side Love Will Tear Us Apart Love, Selfish Love* Love, Sex, Death Lullabye Mad at Nothing* Miss Missing You Moving Pictures My Heart Is the Worst Kind of Weapon My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark (Light Em Up) New Dreams [this is a bonus track on pax am days, a naked rayguns cover] Nobody Puts Baby in the Corner Novocaine Of All the Gin Joints in All the World One of Those Nights [another song from the cab's whisper war. this one has patrick doing vocals very prominently] Open Happiness [this was a huge collaborative piece done for a coca cola commercial. patrick was on it along with big names like cee lo green, janelle monae, and labelmates travie mccoy and brendon urie] Our Lawyer Made Us Change the Name of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued Parker Lewis Can't Lose (But I'm Gonna Give It My Best Shot) Past Life [llamania ep] Pavlove People Never Done a Good Thing* Porcelain* Pretty in Punk Rat a Tat Reinventing the Wheel to Run Myself Over Roxanne Run Dry (X Heart X Fingers)* San Diego [this is a blink-182 song that patrick did some writing for] Saturday Saturday Night Again* Save Rock and Roll (song) Sending Postcards from a Plane Crash (Wish You Were Here) She's My Winona Short, Fast, and Loud Snitches and Talkers Get Stitches and Walkers So Good Right Now So Much (For) Stardust (song) So Sick [this is a song patrick has exclusively covered live, so it's a fascinating inclusion] Sober [another blink-182 song patrick did some writing for] Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year Star 67 Stay Frosty Royal Milk Tea Sugar, We're Goin Down Summer Days (song) [this is a martin garrix song patrick lent some vocals to] Sunshine Riptide Super Fade Switchblades and Infidelity Tell That Mick He Just Made My List of Things to Do Today The "I" In Lie* The (After) Life of the Party The (Shipped) Gold Standard The Carpal Tunnel of Love The Kids Aren't Alright The Kintsugi Kid (Ten Years) The Last of the Real Ones The Mighty Fall The Music or the Misery The Patron Saint of Liars and Fakes The Phoenix The Pink Seashell The Pros and Cons of Breathing The Take Over, the Breaks Over The World's Not Waiting (For Five Tired Boys in a Broken Down Van) This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race This City* Thnks fr th Mmrs (song) [for some reason the site specifies song here, despite that not being necessary. the only other times this distinction is relevant is when songs share a title with their albums, i.e. save rock and roll] Thriller Tiffany Blews Twin Skeleton's (Hotel in NYC) Uma Thurman Untitled 1 (Colorado Song) Untitled 2 (Jakus Song) [both of these are recently released tttyg era demos] W.A.M.S. We Didn't Start the Fire We Don’t Take Hits, We Write Them [this is a song that famously was only ever performed live. we don't have a studio recording or even a demo, as only live versions exist] We Were Doomed from the Start (The King is Dead) West Coast Smoker What a Catch, Donnie What a Time To Be Alive What's This? When I Made You Cry* Where Did the Party Go Wilson (Expensive Mistakes) Wrong Side of Paradise [llamania ep] XO You're Crashing, But You're No Wave Young and Menace Young Volcanoes Yule Shoot Your Eye Out
in conclusion i have no idea who compiled this list. it doesn't include every song patrick and pete have ever touched (notice the lack of gym class heroes, cobra starship, and hush sound discography) but it has a really weird selection of songs. i mean, blink songs patrick wrote on?? its bizarre.
anyway do you think if we mass request swing me by the rafters they'll have to do it

As the tour has turned out to be a rollercoaster of emotions and nostalgia, I decided to concentrate in a small masterpost each of the surprise songs played by the guys throughout the whole tour. It will be constantly updated and is not free of errors, if you notice any mistake in the dates or the position of the songs, feel free to comment and I will fix it. By now the source is the people who had contributed to the setlist.fm website, so I will try to look for more reliable sources with links to their respective creators (and also videos if it's possible) Thanks for reading, and happy tourdust to all. 🖤✨

I think sophmore slump is one they were planning on playing at some point as it was on a setlist of possible songs that leaked for the magic 8 ball segment (alongside ginasfs, gin joints, coffee for closers and possibly american suitehearts and patron saint(?) - funnily enough kintsugi kid, which was played last night, was not on that list and c4c and AS haven't been played yet). idk I feel like they have rehersed a bunch of old songs, just maybe not often enough for that one lol.
I was wondering in particular about Coffee for Closers and America's Suitehearts! Like, I was thinking of which songs i thought they might do and those two hit my list. I would also love, love What a Catch but Idk. I would also personally love (After) Life of the Party just because it's one of my favorites.
But that makes sense that they must have prepared a bunch of songs ahead of time. And I know Patrick claims he's doing his piano bit spontaneously but he must have some thought in his head of some options ahead of time. Or he's just that good to sit down at a piano and be like, "Idk, how about this song I've never played before?"
