History Trivia / PanicAtTheDisco

** Between ''Fever" and ''Pretty. Odd.'', the band had attempted to create a concept album called ''Cricket and Clover'' in a cabin in Mount Charleston, Nevada. Described as a modern day fairy-tale and the beginning of a series of albums, producer Rob Mathes described it as sounding "really bizarre" and more akin to a film score than an album. Most of the tracks have never been released. Only two songs are known to have been written for the album: "Folkin Around" off ''Pretty. Odd.'' and "Nearly Witches" off of ''Vices and Virtues''. A demo for the latter already had been released as part of Fall Out Boy's ''Welcome To The Administration'' mixtape under the fake band name The Paul Revere Jumpsuit Apparatus, with completely different lyrics that had been rewritten following Ryan Ross's departure from the band.

** Brendon was considering performing under his own name after Spencer left, but eventually decided to keep the band going essentially as a solo act.

** Managed to happen to The Young Veins as well due to difference between Ryan and Jon. The band sprung up, pushed out an album and were gone before ''Vices and Virtues'' was even released. Probably related is the fact that ''Take a Vacation'' flopped even more than ''Pretty. Odd.'' did.

** During the ''Pretty. Odd.'' era, the band stated that the "emo" scene was "bullshit", and dropped their previous circus and vaudeville costumes, and most of the first album from live performances, with the exception of their successful singles. Meanwhile they played the entirety of their [[NewSoundAlbum new album]] every show. Naturally, this didn't make most fans happy.

** As of 2018, "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" and "Nine in the Afternoon" are the only songs from either of their first two albums to be performed lived anymore.
