Hot Dang its Vans Warped Tour Hype Time. For those of you unfamiliar once the cold snow of New England melts my mind heads straight to the thoughts of Warped.One day 5 stages 5 million bands all on that the same time. Sweat, vomit, dirt, dehydration weed and Monster energy drink.
Sunburn smeared make up and a 5 hour shower once the gate closes and that's it. Done.
Basically Warped should be a 3 day event but instead they jam it in to 9 hours. Its like speed dating only its music.
Presale is on! You get a silly cd and a hop the line pass as a bonus for planning ahead. That could be a great thing if you want to meet bands at signings. Music Saves Lives is a better organization crank out a pint of your blood and you get better perks like free water and side stage access. Good times
So then, the bands are official in place and I am proud to announce that this years headliner is none other than A Day To Remember. Congratulations guys!!
Here is the official band line up. The dates are obviously those that the band ar participating in as not all bands cover the entire tour. This has great potential!
The bands in bold are those www.rocknycliveandrecorded.com has had the pleasure of interviewing.
