Panic! At The Disco performed a surprise sold out show tonight in Cleveland, OH at The Grog Shop. Fans waited for hours and only those lucky enough to score a $30 ticket were able to gain access to this super intimate performance from Panic! At The Disco who usually perform in sold out arenas across the world, so it was very special to witness them performing in a very intimate 400 cap room. The performance was announced just one day prior to the actual event and it has been rumored that another surprise performance will be happening later this week in New Jersey, the show tonight in Cleveland was branded as TELL ALL YOUR FELLOW SINNERS, PRAY FOR THE WICKED, which could just be the title to their new forthcoming record? But that information has not yet been released.
PANIC! Frontman Brendon Urie revealed that the band’s sixth studio album was nearing completion in an Instagram live stream just last month, and tonight, they played a surprise show in a small intimate venue as mentioned, which leaves us and fans speculating it could mean new music is on the way.
Fans have been receiving mysterious packages in the mail with a white bottle with the words “Pray For The Wicked, 3:21, Unholy Water” on them as we found via Alternative Press’s report. We are speculating that those words are giving hints of a new single or album announced coming on March 21st titled as one of those sayings on the bottle but that date (March 21st) is also the date of their next surprise show in Asbury Park, NJ which can be seen being sent out to fans via flyer in the mail.

What we learned tonight at the Surprise Panic! At The Disco show?
1. Panic! At The Disco announced that they are set to perform on The Tonight Show, This Wednesday, March 21st which just so happens to be 3:21, the date on the mysterious white bottle being received by fans.
2. Panic! At The Disco has a new bass player replacing long-time bassist Dallon Weekes who departed from the band late last year, and the new bassist is a female, her name is Nicole Row. She’s toured as a touring bassist with artists like Miley Cyrus, Billy Ray Cyrus, Noah Cyrus, Daya, and Troye Sivan and now she’s with Panic! At The Disco serving as their touring bassist.
3. Brendon Urie confirms that he is “in new album mode”
4. Tonight’s Grog Shop show had merch for sale with what appears to be additional shows for this brief promo of something which are crossed off or whited out on the back of the shirts only showing the tops and bottoms of the text. Could the front of the shirt be the new album art?
5. No new music was released or played at this show.
