Panic at the Disco Shrug Off Poor Sales of ‘Pretty. Odd.’
It’s a disorienting time in the music industry. Panic at the Disco‘s sophomore album, Pretty. Odd., has gotten positive reviews all around, but it’s not exactly ruling the charts.
Hear that? RyRo wants to see your singing, smiling faces —not your money. OK, maybe some of your money.
“It’s a really weird time for music, and it’s hard to tell where you stand, and all the things that used to tell you about your band have kind of gone away. So how you perceive yourself has changed,” the often-mum drummer Spencer Smith added. “Luckily for us, rock bands have always been about playing live, [which is] good for us, because we’re a real band who plays our own instruments, so we love being able to do it. And luckily that’s always going to be there, because you can’t download the concert ticket.”
Aaaaactually, Mr. Smith, I have downloaded a concert ticket before. It just wasn’t free, obviously. Just sayin’.
Brush your teefs and get your warbling pipes ready if the HCT has yet to hit your hometown!
