Is having a daily Twitter post important to you?

Here's an interview with Brendon from when they were in Brazil back in November. Keep in mind that it went from English-Portuguese-English.

It’s not easy being in front of a band who said goodbye to half of its members not too long ago. Just ask Brendon Urie, the singer of Panic! At The Disco. He swears the exit of guitarist Ryan Ross and bassist Jon Walker, in July 2009, was in good terms, “with no drama”. And like that, he’s been living under a new perspective, like the title of their new single. Brendon told us how he’s writing without the help of Panic!’s formers members, his love for surfing, making new friends and the taste of beer before a show. Cheers to the new Panic!

Let’s talk about the exit of Ryan Ross and Jon Walker. Why did they leave the band?
Brendon: It was an entirely musical decision. We thought about it for a year. We wanted to do different things regarding our sound. We all agreed: ”Ryan and Jon want to do this and Spencer and I will keep doing the Panic thing”. It was a mutual agreement. Couldn’t have been better. There was no drama and we’re still friends.

Ryan and Jon have another band now, The Young Veins. Have you heard their songs?
Only a couple of demos, they’re cool. I consider myself a big fan of Ryan’s ability to write. It won’t surprise me if it turns out to be something really creative. He’s talented. He and Jon will do great. 

Dear K,

I don`t think I know exactly what to say, but, at the same time, I can`t say I have to. You`re not here. You`re not listening. So what does it matter?

It does, still. To me. And, god, I can`t figure out why.

Why you. Why me. Why us, why here, why now.

I haven`t found the answers yet. I`ve looked, for months and weeks, while you stared at me with pretty brown eyes and looked on, oblivious, I struggled to find something. Anything. Something solid and strong enough, something happy and bright and everything I wasn`t.

I haven`t found it.

Maybe you had it, maybe you really did, but you weren`t going to give it to me. Not me.

But-some, at least. Hugs and arms around each other- it was nice, but nothing new from what you gave everyone else.

Still, I felt special. And for once in the longest time- wanted. Like somebody, anybody, out there cared, maybe.

But I don`t know if you care, anymore.

And maybe it`s my fault, because I never said anything, because I`m not who you wanted me to be.

But I can see it, still. It`s a sparkling wonderful never ending never happened that I see every time I close my eyes around you.

Why?

Please, just…

Why?

I don`t think I`ll ever know, but maybe it`s just time I stopped looking.

Love,

     A.
