Warped tour for FREE!!

Hey, this isn't about records, but I wanted to write about it anyway, so forget you, pal!

Anyway, Warped tour was coming up and my stepdaughter and I wanted to go, but couldn't afford the tickets. Well, I worked on Monday, and gave Josh of "From Autumn to Ashes" a haircut and he put us on the guestlist.

Thanks again man, that totally ruled.

So we saw F.A.T.A., checked out the Dollyrots and bought their CD's, I FINALLY saw NOFX, (they were as good as I thought they'd be and Eric Melvin came down after the set to make sure some kid who fell in front of the stage was OK. What a rad guy.)

Joan Jett, (a living legend, Joan, please kill Courtney Love, p.s., we're likin' the new CD) AFI, and the Living End.

I didn't shake any hands, but I did get NOFX's setlist, so that was alright. And I loaded up on free stickers and buttons, I couldn't help myself.

I also met some Numbnuts who claimed to be in some band that wasn't even on the tour, I still don't know how he got that laminate...

Anyway, what with the internet, it's not that tough to look people up, so why even bother lying about being in a band?

So all in all, a pretty rad day, even though I'm now the proud owner of a killer farmer tan.

I did see some vinyl there, but there really wasn't anything that exciting, and I didn't feel like lugging around an LP all day so what are ya gonna do?
