On Feb. 1, former Panic! At The Disco member, Dallon Weekes, reunited with fellow former bandmember, Ryan Ross at a charity concert hosted by Phantom Planet in Los Angeles.

Weekes, who is the current frontman of I DONT KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME (IDKHow), was performing at The Regent Theater to help raise money for those who have been impacted by the LA wildfires. At the end of his set, Weekes was joined by Ross on stage to help perform “Do The Panic,” a song originally by the hosts of the event, Phantom Planet.

Prior to this event, Weekes and Ross had never performed on stage together during their time with Panic! At The Disco, with Ross leaving the band in July 2009, and Weekes filling in to take his spot at the end of that year. Due to this, fans of the two singers were surprised by the collaboration and had a lot to say online.

“If you told 12-year-old me that in the year of 2025, Ryan Ross and Dallon Weekes would be on stage together performing, I think I’d have a genuine heart attack,” writes X user @lobotaimee.

After the show, Weekes’ wife, Breezy Weekes, took to Instagram, posting a picture of the duo, stating that they were, “having a good time chatting” after their performance- which led fans to wonder if Panic! At The Disco frontman, Brendon Urie, was their primary topic of discussion.

“This is like when two of your ex’s become friends and get together to gossip about you,” writes Instagram user @iammanserrat.

Alongside Ross and members of IDKHow, the Phantom Planet benefit concert also showcased performers such as Family of the Year, Z Berg, Hale Appleman, and twentylove. Together, the performers were able to raise over $32,000 for organizations such as World Central Kitchen and the California Community Foundation.

“In challenging times you have done so much to help our great city and community,” Phantom Planet shared on Instagram. “We love you so much Los Angeles!”
