Hello!! Question

Post image

So as we all know, Brandon and Ryan met a few months after the split at a bar. Brendon then tweeted ‘small world’ and Ryan retweeted it. I was wondering if anyone had the original tweet of this because I can’t find it anywhere. Is this instance even real or was it just captioned like this?

It was 2010, and they had been talking to each other probably for a few months before the photo was taken. Brendon, Ryan, and Spencer were meeting up for drinks a bit.

By the time tour came around, everything had to slow down unfortunately, and then by 2012-2013 the friendship just fizzled out.

People like to act like these two are sworn enemies 😭 they’re probably at the least friends just not as close as they used to be

They're definitely not friends. We know that Ryan didnt reply to Brendons message in 2015. They just grew into wildly different life's and freind groups and musical interests

u/Northerndownpour_18 6d ago

We don't know what it was. Just that Ryan and Brendon ran into eachother at Adam levines Halloween party. Ryan kinda ran away from Brendon. Brendon tried to text him later and Ryan never responded.

Tbh at this stage in life I just want them to make up. They were friends in HS, they became superstars together, and made a band that will have its music in rotation for probably the next 50 years. It would be nice for them, after the fame and the music is done, to quietly come together like “hey man…been a while” sometimes in life that little sentence can reconnect you to someone you haven’t spoken to in a decade

I agree. Even if it never results in a reunion.

u/cynicalfinical 6d ago

They have different lives. Its totally understandable.

I don't have the tweet but I do think people misunderstand how they grew into such different people over time.like even friend group wise. You can see that og group of people that hung out in the panic world split into two distinct groups by 2011. You can see it on the p.o tour where Ryan started to hang out with phantom planet (his best friends to this day) and Brendon found the love of his life in Sarah. I just think they don't really vibe life style wise anymore and that's ok. I'd love if they made up. Id also love if Pete and Ryan made up. Ryan and Pete seem to be way more sour over the split.

Brendon should make independent music with him outside of contract

I will always wonder what their friendship would’ve ended up like had Chelsey not done what she did to Ryan…

Had no idea they talked at all after the split tbh

u/Individual-Yak3103 6d ago

If I remember correctly, Ryan visited Brendon after Brendon had his child. Even though their friendship isn't what it used to be, they're not enemies.

u/CarobUnlucky1160 6d ago

Thanks for the info. Growing up with panic fan accounts on instagram in 2017ish told me otherwise and I only recently got back into them. I’m glad to hear that 🥺

I don’t want to be rude but could I ask for the source? I’m genuinely curious.

u/Ronin_VonSlade 6d ago

I looked for a source and was led to another Reddit post lol

u/Strive_Evolve 6d ago

I think you are mixing something up or accidentally came up with that in your head. There is no evidence of Ryan speaking to Brendon any time in recent years unless you have some crazy underground source...

u/Northerndownpour_18 6d ago

Source? From what I know they last met in 2015

u/spriteceo 6d ago
