Information
I couldn't find a lot of information on the single/video, so I just put it as a stub. It was put together rather quickly, so please forgive me.--Dess 04:08, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
I watched a making the video for "I Write Sins, Not Tragedies", and Brendan had explained that the circus people were the groom's family.
read right away
hey u need a page on ryan ross from panic! at the disco ,plez!—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.250.146.160 (talk • contribs) .
- Why? There was an article, which has been deleted for good reasons (one of them being he's not notable enough to deserve a seperate article). --HarryCane 14:19, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
Trivia?
When the groom sees the bride kissing the guest, the bride's left shoulder is "facing" the groom. But when she talks to him, she talks over her right shoulder, as if she was in the opposite position. I have never made a big edition before, only corrected typos - so, if you don't mind, the information is there and I prefer to leave it up to you to decide if it's worth editing and adding that comment or not. Besides, my english sucks =P -- PrestoK
Groom?
The article currently says, "The song tells the story of a nervous groom who, on his wedding day, overhears two guests describing his fiancée as a whore. Feeling helpless, he tries to rationalize it, although it can be interpreted that the narrator of the song isn't the groom."
How can it be interpreted that he is NOT the groom when he says in the second verse, "I mean technically our marriage is saved." That's pretty clear to me. If the narrator is not the bridegroom at this wedding but his marriage is saved nonetheless there is much too much going on behind the scenes in this song.

well its the... why didn't you look up the lyrics?
Infobox
Someone who follows this band (not me :) might want to take a look at the infobox code. I noticed it looks like someone tried to change "Pop" to "Pop, Rock", but the code is a little messed up. It's easy enough to change (either forward to "Pop, Rock" or back to "Pop"), but I don't know enough about the song or band to do it myself. -Wayne Miller 19:02, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Wikiproject Proposal
I've proposed a Panic! at the Disco Wikiproject here, to see how many people would be interested before starting one. The project would be an effort by a group of Wikipedians to build and improve all Panic! at the Disco pages (including members of the band, songs and albums). If you think that you'd be reguarly editing these pages, please put your name down at this page so we can see who would be interested in the project.

King Henry VIII
Does this song remind anyone else of King Henry VIII? Or am I just a little too willing to make connections? WhatTheFace? 01:51, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Title?
Is there any possibility that the title is derived from the Douglas Coupland novel "Shampoo Planet"? On page 203 of the Pocket Books softcover edition, it reads:
"I am writing a list of tragic character flaws on my dollar bills with a felt pen. I am thinking of the people in my universe and distilling for each of these people the one flaw in their character that will lead to their downfall--the flaw that will be their undoing. (...)What I write are not sins; I write tragedies."
The book was published in 1992, before Panic! At The Disco were even a band.
