I remember Panic! went to see Kanye in Vegas, and Pete asked Kanye if he had met them and Kanye was like, 'No, I didn't see anybody here dressed like the 1800s.' So I think they had some idea . . ."-Chris Payne, Where Are Your Boys Tonight?: The Oral History of Emo's Mainstream Explosion 1999-2008
" Jim Adkins: ...There was a girl who wrote us, explaining how she felt like an outsider at her school because the punk rock kids wouldn't accept her, even though she liked us and a lot of the really obscure bands we toured with. And I just thought 'It's not worth your time to trip on this. Punk rock is and should be inclusive. That's the one thing I know. No matter what your definition of punk is, everyone would say that it's inclusive, it welcomes outsiders. Freak flags welcome. Wave 'em around. These chicks don't get it at all, don't waste your time trying to get their approval.' That's where the main idea for the lyrics to 'The Middle' came from."-Chris Payne, Where Are Your Boys Tonight?: The Oral History of Emo's Mainstream Explosion 1999-2008
