Thank God for the Old School and Hurley stages. Yes, I'm old! I got to the gig when the Street Dogs were playing "Tobe's Got a Drinking Problem." Boston is lucky to have them. Off to the OS Stage to see Big Drill Car. Amazing. TSOL played right after. Jack was on fire with his between song banter. Over to the Hurley stage to see the Horrorpops and the Briggs. "This Is LA" is a righteous anthem for our city. I finished off the night with Reel Big Fish! Skank it, baby.

I was really excited to see a few of my favorite musicians... The Color Fred and Angels & Airwaves. Both were truly incredible. I met Fred Mascherino afterward, one of the nicest dudes ever. Also I saw Matt Wachter (AVA) walking, I stopped his, also unbelievably nice and got some pictures with him. Another band to point out was The Devil Wears Prada. I only saw two songs, as I wanted to get a great spot for Angels & Airwaves, but they're also great.
So many more, but that's enough for now.
If you go a Warped show in the future, get some sunblock. Trust me, my face is so red as stingy...
but it was definitely worth it :)

It was a fantastic show. I ended up watching 5 more bands than intended, so in total, I saw 12. I loved this years set up and also loved the diversity.
The only thing I could complain about is the person who thought it was okay to put Bring Me The Horizon one of the smallest stages of the whole tour. 2,000+ people watching them was a little intense. They still put on a pretty good show though, not he best of the night, but it was good.

Against Me!, Story Of The Year and Four Year Strong were, in my opinion, definitely the best performances of the night. They DEFINITELY know how to throw a show. Though I would have probably added Rise Against To that list if I ended up watching them, b7t I was too worried about missing FYS.

Overall, best Warped I've been to.

This warped was amazing, I loved the line-up this year, and this one all my favorite bands were spread out, thank you warped tour gods. I never really had to pick between bands, and the stages werent that far apart. Plus, I got to spend time with my girlfriend which was amzaing, and no one called out "lezzys!" or "gayyyy" which is why i love warped no one cares and hardly no one is homophobic.
All and all, it was amazing.

This Warped Tour line up was not as good as last year but it still was fun.

I saw in order
Street Dogs, Anberlin, Authority Zero, Norma Jean, Story of the Year, Motion City Soundtrack, Oreaskaband, All Time Low, Every Time I Die,
The Lordz, Rise Against, Katy Perry,
Angels and Airwaves, Gym Class Heroes, and Shwayze.

The best where Story of the Year,
Motion City Soundtrack, and Gym Class Heroes.

Can't wait for next year.

PRETTY AWESOME I GOT TO SEE FROM FIRST TO LAST, WHICH WAS THE REASON FOR GOING JUST LIKE ANGELS AND AIRWAVES...ALOT OF KOOL NEW BANDS AS WELL AS SOME OLDER ONES, LOTS OF DIFF SOUNDS, QUITE SOME METALISH SOUNDS...GNARLY...

ONLY ONE BIG-HUGE COMPLAIN : \ THIS WARPED TOUR WAS SUPPOSED TO BE SORTA ECO...BUT MOST OF THE BANDS MEMBER WERE KILLING THE ATTEMPT BY SMOKING (UGH DISGUSTING)HOPE THAT NEXT YEAR THEY BAN THE CIGARRETE SMOKING TO TRULY SEND OUT A GOOD MESSAGE AS WHOLE, NOT HALF WAY!!!!

OTHER THAN THAT IT WAS AWESOME!!! XD
