Brendon and Jon prank called Rahul, of One Buck Short on hitz.FM’s segment called “Gotcha!”. The band played with Panic in Malaysia. Check out the video below:

Las Vegas four-piece Panic at the Disco changed radically between their 2005 debut album “A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out,” which made them poster boys for the emo scene, and 2008’s “Pretty. Odd.,” where they paid homage to The Beatles and “Ogden’s”-era Small Faces. Their set in Summer Sonic’s vast Marine Stadium saw them indulge this 1960s whimsy with tight melodies, acoustic and electric guitars and tinkly piano, introducing their hit “Nine in the Afternoon” in Japanese (after being taught how to say it by The Japan Times).

The band are currently working on new material and hope to start recording album three at the end of the year. Founding duo Ryan Ross (guitar) and Spencer Smith (drums) say it will be different again, but even they don’t know what to expect just yet.

Have you played at Summer Sonic before?

Ross: No, this is our first time. I want to see The Fratellis, The Kills; I don’t know if we’ll get to though, I think they might be playing right before us. I’m not sure how easy it is to get to the other stages from where we’re at.

Paolo LorenzanaPaolo Lorenzana’s ‘Odd’-est interview ever. A horror story.

All the things I probably should have said, a now-dead tone — much more a computer-generated call declared dead by squishy Skype signal — would not permit. Some sense of diplomacy had been lost over Internet telephone space and what was supposed to be light discussion with Panic at the Disco’s mastermind guitarist Ryan Ross on the band’s new release “Pretty. Odd.” — and their August 14 concert at the Araneta Coliseum — turned out to be, well, not just odd but pretty damn off-putting.

Despite the tentative 8AM interview slot a concert promoter had set the night before, I felt I was ready for a standard game of whack-the-conversational-ball-around with any of the band members by the time I’d received a 7AM text message confirming my ring-a-rendezvous with Ross and frontman Brendon Urie in about an hour.
