I'm with you on the Panic! music. Though, Panic! does have a record of having lots of strings and other good stuff in their music that live music just doesn't show. So I doubt that their actual finished product will sound like what they've been playing.

On the other hand, Ryan Ross has recently stolen my heart and ran away with it. Like, he's happy! He's dressing like a emo cowboy! He's smiling! ♥
