Panic! At The Disco is kicking off their Fall 2011 tour with a performance on October 9th at Reno, Nevada’s Knitting Factory. Heading out on tour with P!ATD will be Patrick Stump and Foxy Shazam, with the tour wrapping up on November 10th in Illinois.
Additionally, the group’s new studio track – “Mercenary” – will be featured on Batman: Arkham City, Rocksteady Studios/Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment’s forthcoming third-person action adventure.
Per the Press Release from Decaydance/Fueled By Ramen:
“Ready To Go (Get Me Out Of My Mind),” the latest single from Panic! At The Disco’s acclaimed new album, Vices & Virtues, has proven a massive fan favorite. The track was just named by Rolling Stone readers as one of the top 5 “Best Songs of the Summer.” “Ready To Go” can also be heard soundtracking Diet Coke’s latest “Stay Extraordinary” ad campaign, now playing at Diet Coke’s official YouTube channel, youtube.com/user/dietcoke.
A live version of “Ready To Go (Get Me Out Of My Mind)” will be featured on Panic! At The Disco’s upcoming iTUNES LIVE EP, pre-order is now available exclusively on the iTunes Store. Recorded June 8th at Chicago’s Apple Store, the six-track collection features exhilarating performances of some of the band’s greatest hits, including “New Perspective,” “Nine In The Afternoon,” and “I Write Sins Not Tragedies.”
In addition, the latter track’s imaginative companion video was recently voted the “Best Video of the Year Winner of the 2000s” by MTV viewers. “I Write Sins Not Tragedies” — directed by Shane Drake (who also collaborated with Panic! At The Disco on the hugely popular videos for “The Ballad of Mona Lisa” and “Nine In The Afternoon”) — was also ranked among the top 3 on Billboard’s recent “The 10 Best ’00s Music Videos” poll.
Vices & Virtues — which also features the hit single, “The Ballad of Mona Lisa” — made a spectacular chart entry upon its release earlier this year, entering the SoundScan/Billboard 200 at #7, while also coming in at #2 on SoundScan’s “Alternative Albums” chart and #5 on the “Digital Albums” ranking. P!ATD celebrated the album’s success with a major North American headline tour, as well as appearances at an array of summer music festivals. The band also made a series of TV appearances, including performances on NBC’s The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, TBS’ Lopez Tonight, Logo’s NewNowNext Awards, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live, TBS’ Conan, MTV’s The Seven, and Fuse’s Top Twenty Countdown.
