so today was the greatest day ever because I got to go to warped tour which I look forward to every year. I am burnt to a crisp, it was the hottest day of the year and I'm super tired but it rocked so much! getting there sucked because we were stuck in traffic to get in for an hour! Finally I got to see New Found Glory, then my beloved flogging molly followed by the casualities and them story of the year (who I grew up & went to high school with). I met the guittarist for Anti-Flag without even knowing it. He's a nice guy and his band rocks my world. I also saw NOFX and Bad Religion who rock as usual. Sadly there was no moshing for me, I'm way too small & those pits are violent.

basically I was just wondering if anyone else got to go see this fantastic tour or atleast wanted to (sorry its a US thing only...but I still love you guys!)

I wanted to go so badly, especially because of The Casualties and NOFX, but I have absolutely no way to get to anywhere that it will be. I miss out on so much because nothing ever comes remotely close to my city. ;_;

You're so lucky that you got to go! Did you take pictures?

Hmm, the warp tour, I think I heard about that on the radio, they have some people I like going there but most I don't care for...plus concerts hurt my ears so bad.

sadly no but i got some shirts& other little freebees. my camera was out in the car tho. stupid me. i alsmot stoped and talked to the guy from the casualities w. the big orange liberty spikes but my boyfriends like no no he's too hardcore for me (which is true those guys are nuts). if i wasnt so afraid of him i would have had him sign something....kinda like i wish i knew who that antiflag guy was when i met him. oh & i saw my story of the year guys but they looked so tired & pitiful i didnt want to bother them, even if they're friends of mine.

oh & i kno what you mean about your ears. mine were ringing from standing so close to the speakers but it was worth it. next year i might try to mosh but ill just end up in the hospital

Oh wow, The Warped Tour. *sigh* I've always wanted to go, but it's never gonna happen. *curses living in England*

Lucky you...

I was in the US last summer... I was in the NY/NJ area...
So it happened to be that the last 2 days of the warped tour were in NYC and NJ...
So the day it was in NJ (which was where I was staying with my dad), was on aug 9th.... The day I had to leave the US!!!
Talk about luck.
Unless I go to the US again this summer theres no chance I'll see it...

Exactly how long does the entire thing last?

it was from 11am till around 9pm. st. louis happened to be the hottest day of the tour so far. i am burnt to a crisp but it was worth it.

& all of you over seas im jelous. so many awesome bands come from there (flogging molly being my favorite of course)

Flogging Molly rule.

I wish they did something like that in England.
All my favourite bands play warped tour

I want to go, but I can't. I'm too young(parents words not mine) and most of the bands on the tour are bands my parents hate, so I'm outta luck there.

Awww...*pat pat* damn parents. You've got more of a chance of going then me though.

I really wanted to go to the Warped Tour. My mom would have had to go with me though since "I'm too Young to go to a concert alone". I totally wouldn't wanna go with my mom and I don't think she would like it anyway considering her favorite type of music is RAP!!! My friend is going with her mom and her sisters I think.

parents going 2 a concert like warped tour blows my mind. its nothing but angry punk teenagers/adsolesents most of which smoke and use excessive profanity (muvh like the bands). it doesnt bother me personally...my ex was a smoker who tried to be so hardcore (but he really wasnt). but its a harsh environment between the pits and the huge crowds. i cant even hold up well to a pit and ive seen some people take on nasty injuries. i mean if you younger and want to go thats ok, just know what your getting into. sure it rocks to hear the bands, but warped tour is more then just music for some.
