john walker is the new bassist.
'On May 17, 2006, Panic! At the Disco made an official announcement via their website announcing the departure of their bassist Brent Wilson. No official reason was given for the departure of Wilson. The announcement stated that a long-time friend of the band, named Jon Walker, would be filling in for this summer's tour as a temporary bassist while the band searched for a permanent replacement. However on July 3, 2006, the band's myspace was edited to list Jon as bassist/vocals. Walker is now considered a member of P!ATD.
According to MTV News, the band and Wilson have now engaged in a war of words, with Wilson stating in a Spin interview that he was fired without warning, opposed to the band's official statement that his departure was a decision all the band came to. In retaliation to Wilson's comment, Panic! at the Disco alleged that Wilson did not write the bass parts on their debut album or even played bass on the recording. Brent Wilson is demanding the cut of royalties he earned from the band's debut album, or else he is threatening to take his former band mates to court.'
