Brendon Urie brings down the curtain on Panic! At The Disco: “Let’s live every day like it’s our last, babyyyyy!”
Brendon Urie says he “overcome with gratitude” as Panic! At The Disco play their last ever show
Panic! At The Disco played their final ever show this weekend at Manchester’s AO Arena, and Brendon Urie has bid fans an emotional farewell on Instagram.
In January Urie revealed that he had decided to call time on the Las Vegas band’s 18-year career in order to focus on his family: he and his wife Sarah Orzechowski are expecting their first child.
“Well, it’s been a hell of a journey…” he said, “But sometimes a journey must end for a new one to begin.”
And after bringing the curtain down on Panic! at their final show on Friday (March 10), a gig which saw the band perform last year’s Viva Las Vengeance album in full, the singer posted a touching farewell note to fans.
Urie wrote: “I’m overcome with gratitude. I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. For the last 18 years, it’s truly been an experience that I’ll always be grateful for.
“So if you’ve been with us for 18 years, thank you very much. And if you’ve just joined us, welcome and… farewell. Either way, I love you very much, and I just can’t say thank you enough. Let’s live every day like it’s our last, babyyyyy!”
