A/N- THIS IS NOT A CHAPTER OF THE STORY!!! I had to write this in order to get over this and write more and if you are a fan of P!ATD please read and comment or PM me on your views about this. After reading about this I felt like I had lost a bit of my childhood like I had died a bit inside. If you are not a fan or just don't care you can skip over this it won't hurt my feeling, I just needed to vent. I was going to post this earlier today but was not able to.

Dear Readers, Friends, and Panic At The Disco fans,

I am sorry to report to those of you who have not yet heard this depressing news, but the band known as Panic At The Disco has split up as today, July 6, 2009. If you are like me and have been a diehard fan ever since you heard "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" on the radio or even before that. I myself liked them before I even heard it. The band has chosen to split because of creative differences; I cannot say that I didn't see this coming. I loved 'A Fever You Can't Sweat Out' and tolerated 'Pretty. Odd.' it was not my favorite album in the world but I kind of liked it none the less. Ryro (Ryan Ross, lead guitarist/ backup vocalist) and Jon Walker (bassist) have chosen to part with the Spencer Smith (drummer) and Brendan Urie (lead vocalist/ rhythm guitarist) and start their own musical adventure. Urie and Smith though still plan to continue making music together under their current name and they are bringing the '!' back into the name, making it Panic! At The Disco, as it rightfully should be. The band dropped the punctuation during the making of 'Pretty. Odd.' Claiming on the cover it would be too much punctuation (LOAD OF SHIT!!!). As I said before this split does not come as a surprise to me. I mean, sure this morning when I woke up and saw the news I was like, "HOLY SHIT!!!" and started crying, but I had had my concerns about their next album said to come out September of this year. I figured either they would be one of those bands you know that reinvents themselves after every album and change their sound or there would be some strain about their theme. It seemed to me after Odd that they didn't seem to have the drive or the inspiration anymore. In interviews they didn't seem like the Panic I had grown to love over the years. I am also saddened by the fact that longtime friends and Blink lovers Ryan and Spencer are now separated, but the band says they are still friends, so at least they left on good terms. I wish this wouldn't have happened but nonetheless I wish both 'bands' all the luck in the world and hope they succeed in their future ventures.
