My Warped Tour Experience (Huge Read)

[Penner]

Amazing.

First I had to wait in line for like a couple hours. People were throwing water bottles and shit. A guy threw a timbit in the air and I yelled "timbit!" and my friend caught it and threw it back in the guys face. Moment of the day right there. We finally got in, I remembered I had a pocketknife on my key chain. I hid it and luckily they didn't find it. I wouldn't want them to take it or anything.

Anyways, we went around for a bit looking for merch and shit. We stopped off at the Alexisonfire tent and Dallas was selling merch I bought a t-shirt and I got him to sign something for me. Huge crowd for them btw.

Yellowcard was one of the first bands up so I went to see them. Pretty good show. Pretty much what I was expecting from them. For some reason they stopped in the middle of their set and the guy who runs the warped tour said they were going to go on for an hour instead of half an hour. Pushed back all the time slots, but still pretty cool. I heard a lot of their good songs.

We rested a bit and then we say Billy Talent. I had already seen both these bands, so the Billy Talent set was pretty familiar. Nothing huge there. They played a pretty good set. Not as many songs as their actual concert but that was expected.

We walked around because we had some time to waste. I bought a New Found Glory Shirt and a Taking Back Sunday shirt

I caught most of Story Of The Year set. I didn't get to see them play Until The Day I Die because I left early to get a good spot for Alexisonfire .

Alexisonfire was pretty awesome, but it was a REALLY short set. It sucked, they should've played more songs. Dallas is frickin awesome Anyways, like in the middle of their set they told them to have like a merry go round moshpit around this tent. An accident waiting to happen. A guy got hurt and I think that's why they cut their set short. One of the guys I was with climbed a telephone pole to see them. My friend got a pic of it. Pretty funny shit.

Anyways me and my friend wanted to catch a bit of New Found Glory so we ran over there. We only heard them play My Friends Over You and All Downhill From Here, but that's all right. Pretty good for what we saw.

Next my friends wanted to see Silverstein so we went over to a smaller stage. They were really good. Awesome screaming and shit. We left halfway through because we wanted to catch part of Coheed and Cambria. We missed In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth:3 But we got to see some decent songs by them. Another short set. That guy's voice is MAD HIGH.

Next a lot of the guys that I was with were in love with this band called Underoath, so we went back to the stage that Silverstein was playing on. By this time Boys Night Out were finishing up. Pretty good for what I heard. Anyways Underoath came on and it was fucking crazy. They are really good. Seriously, check them out. They are fucking awesome.

After that we saw Taking Back Sunday. They were pretty good. They played some old and new songs. They played You're So Last Summer . They played a pretty good set. My friend got like owned by the moshpit.

All in all, a very successful day. Seriously that was one of the most awesomest things I've ever experienced.
