Rock band, Panic At the Disco formed in Las Vegas in 2004 made up of a line-up of high-school classmates. The band first sought a fan base through MySpace and debut album A Fever You Can't Sweat Out (2005) reached Number 13 in the Billboard Chart. The two hit singles that followed, I Write Sins Not Tragedies and But It's Better If You Do, a World tour in 2006, and playing with Bloc Party in the same year all cemented their success and in 2007 they began work on their follow up album, Pretty. Odd - it was at this point that they decided to drop the exclamation mark in their name. The album reached Number 2 in the US, and was followed by another world tour. However, despite their success, in 2009, it was announced that Ross and Walker had left the band due to musical differences - they went on to form The Young Veins - but the band went on tour with various musicians from other bands taking Ross and Walker's places
