Brendon Urie had originally been in a blink-182 cover band with a few mga kaibigan from neighboring high schools. Ryan Ross, a member of their cover band reached out to Pete Wentz of Fall out Boy and sent him their early demos. He got back to the starting band and invited them to LA and meet them. So they did and it all went up from there.
