On a scale of one to Snoop Dogg

Jesus fucking Christ, THIS BAND.

The most popular items at your merch booth seem to be a t-shirt and bag that say “Reinvent Love,” which is such a strong, inclusive message. Tell me about how that became the band slogan.

[Spencer]: It started out as a lyric in “Mad as Rabbits.” It was the last song we were recording for the album, and as we figured out how to fit it into the end of the song, it took on some more anthem-style cheer. As we went on tour, me and Ryan [Ross, Panic’s guitarist] talked about making a “Reinvent Love” shirt. At first it was just going to be on the Fueled By Ramen web store, just a limited edition thing because it didn’t have our band name on the front, and we didn’t know how many people would want to wear that. It ended up being a lot more popular than we thought it would. We were ending all of the concerts with that song, so that was the last thing that people were hearing. We wouldn’t want to be a part of anything that wasn’t that kind of that message. If there’s going to be some saying associated with our band, that’s a pretty good one. It goes along with everything we want to represent and the way that we feel.

I don't know what to do with this band anymore.

P.S. Fifty million points to anyone who writes me stories of Spencer babbling his stoner monologue of paranoia and Jon being all "...dude, just look at the flowers and chill." STONED!THINKY!SPENCER FTW, 'S ALL I'M SAYING.

And then there's Gerard writing Tom Sawyer pornfiction and MY BRAIN HAS OFFICIALLY DIED FROM BANDOM, GOOD NIGHT.
