Panic! At The Disco released an official music video for alternative rock band duo's second single "Ready To Go (Get Me Out Of My Mind)" on the Fueled By Ramen's YouTube page. The boys can't stop playing dress up. After the retro circus chic in "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" and the steampunk styling of "Ballad Of Mona Lisa," Brendon Urie and Spencer Smith are jamming in a 50's-inspired set among other vintage-themed scenes for "Ready To Go," which showcases the boys dancing ability and fits the songs fun and upbeat mood."Ready to Go" is the follow-up to the massively popular "Ballad of Mona Lisa," lifted from the duo's latest third studio album "Vices & Virtues," a little musical gem out on March. It is also their first as a duo and will be released on June 6th. The departure of singer Ryan Ross and bassist Jon Walker left a hole in the Panic! The experience became the catalyst for Urie finding his own voice and the confidence to take over as the band's principal songsmith. As he wrote, Urie started noticing trends in his lyrics. "They dealt with self-deprecation, pride, subversion, manipulation, but some good stuff too: self-expression, honesty," he told Spin magazine.
Panic At the Disco once again worked with director Shane Drake for the new video. "Shane is just so awesome to work with, he is unlike any director we've known. He really pushes us to come up with some crazy ideas and try to work it in with whatever budget we have," Urie once said of reuniting with their longtime collaborator.
Urie time travels to the past with Smith, rocking pompadour hairstyle in this Shane Drake-directed video. Urie notices a glowing music note in the wall and magically pushes open a hidden door which allows the duo to blast back to the past for a neato time in the 50's, before morphing into chimney sweeps leads the boys into a rockabilly type era complete with back-up dancers that should almost certainly audition for the next round of America's Best Dance Crew. Urie back flips into another scene in which he is now crawling into a cannon. With the help of Smith lighting the cannon, Urie gets shot out into cartoon land before landing with an umbrella in the final scene.
