'Panic! At The Disco' to Headline Apple's Annual WWDC Bash

by

PATD PFTWApple's annual WWDC Bash will be headlined this year by rock band Panic! At The Disco. The almost-end-of-WWDC party will take place Thursday evening from 7-10PM at Discovery Meadow, just around the corner from the McEnery Convention Center where the rest of WWDC takes place. The invitation also notes that a "special DJ" will be hosting.

Apple notes that attendees 21 or older may drink alcohol after picking up a wristband on Thursday either on the plaza outside McEnery or at the tent inside Discovery Meadow by showing valid government-issued photo ID. Bag check is not available at the event, Apple notes, "so please leave your bags at the hotel."

The Bash is an annual end-of-WWDC tradition for Apple, though it takes place on Thursday night ahead of the final day, as many attendees fly out on Friday.

Seriously who the ef are they???
Seriously worth checking them out.
They started out in the ‘emo’ scene about 10 years ago, but their last couple of albums have been amazing! The lead vocalist has an impressive vocal range and they blend brass, pop and rock music together.

If you were watching the WWDC keynote their new song “high hopes” played before it started.

You, you right there, win one internet! Or what's left of it after the FCC allows it's destruction.

But you win!
I'm sure Pai will make another rap video.
