I might have entertained the thought of attending if LORDS was playing warped, but then realized it was the lordZ. fucking pathetic 1+ Reply

So, so far, of interest we have, Against Me!, Street Dogs and Reel Big Fish........

i promised myself i'd never go back to the warped tour, and the street dogs jump on this? oh damn, now i probably will go, because this will be the closest they come to ND in a LONG time.

I try not to be a negative nancy about everything that Punk News throws at us, but this is seriously a shit line-up. (Aside from The Bronx)
ExtraCheesePizza (December 6, 2007)
Does Warped pay bands well? It always surprises me to see a small handful of bands I like thrown in with the rest of that garbage.
hhrules (December 6, 2007)
Hopefully their just announcing these bands to get them out of the way, something tells me the rest of the bands are gonna be skate punk bands. One can hope that is the case

That's a good line-up. I'd pay just to see Norma Jean. 1+ Reply
GlassPipeMurder (December 6, 2007)
a fine assortment of good and terrible. wonder how many dates the good bands like Street Dogs are actually going to be doing though. 2+ Replies
hhrules (December 6, 2007)
One of the consistantly great live bands out there right now. My favorite DKM stuff was with Mike McColgan anyway, so it made perfect sense that the Street Dogs would be just as good, if not better and to me, I'm right. I see them whenever I can, can't wait for the new album 2+ Replies

Horrible. I've never been to a warped tour and judging by the annual decline in quality bands that play, it'll stay that way. 1+ Reply

17 reasons NOT to go to Warped again this year. Street Dogs is the only exception.
noondi34 (December 6, 2007)
Against Me!, The Briggs, Reel Big Fish, Street Dogs. looking alright so far.
hooges (December 6, 2007)
I love me some Street Dogs, but I am not sure I love them enough to see them without a bar, because their music just makes me think of drinking.
the_other_scott (December 6, 2007)
the bronx will last like 2 weeks on this shit storm. against me! i think can handle it better. 3oh3 is on fucking warped tour?
brynot (December 6, 2007)
I love how some of you youngsters act like the Warped Tour isn't punk anymore. The funny thing is, it never was. Ever! Unfortunately, life is like a Bob Marley song "you don't know your past you wont know your future." If you really understood the etiology of this little punk rock community, you wouldn't even waste your time worrying about Warped Tour, Radio Shows, Lollapalooza, Bamboozle, etc... You'd just go to them to be entertained, blow some cash on bottled water and shit in a port-a-potty. Take it for what it's worth, like anything else in life; however, realize that it's totally separate from "punk" or any idea of "radicalism." No need to even waste your time getting bent out of shape. 3+ Replies

Soooooo, of the 18 bands there is 1 would want to see - - The Bronx. So, looks like I won't lose any sleep if I miss it - again - this year.

I didnt go last year...and It doesnt look like I'll be going this year. Warped 04 and 05 were good times.
Balipunk (December 6, 2007)
The closest ive been, and ever will be to warped tour, was when i picked up a compilation cd about 4 years ago..
letmesleep (December 6, 2007)
I don't know why you guys are complaining, there may actually be enough here to entertain me into going this year. I mean, The Bronx, Against Me!, Reel Big Fish, The Briggs, Street Dogs...sure, thats just 5 out of 18 announced, but if they keep putting a few decent bands along with this from-first-to-last-shitfest, theres going to be more than enough to keep dudes like us happy for a day.
evil_crap_monster (December 6, 2007)
i don't feel like sweating through six hours of shit just to hear a thirty minute set that i kind of like.
Edgar13 (December 6, 2007)
The LA date last year was kind of good. They had a whole stage where Adolescents, Fear, Agent Orange and etc... played. This was along with Bad Religion and Tiger Army.
thatsyouth (December 6, 2007)
I look forward to seeing the line up every year in hopes that they'll have atleast 4 or 5 bands that i'd go for. Dissapointed again.
guttermcmouth (December 7, 2007)
Remember when the Warped Tour had bands like Lagwagon, Guttermouth, Bouncing Souls, Bad Religion, No Use For A Name? I want to fucking hang Kevin Lyman. Fuck All these shit bands. 1+ Reply
superskabro (December 7, 2007)
Wait, is Against Me! on Warped Tour or not? That'd be sweet if they were. I'm 23 and I still dig warped tour. Sure, most of the bands are shit, but If I can pay $30 to see even 4-5 bands I like, then I'll be happy. I'd love to see RBF, Bronx, Street Dogs, Briggs and Against Me!, and chances are, they'll add at least one or two more decent bands. I'd really like to see more ska (Bosstones!!!) on the tour next year as well. 1+ Reply
TheKidsAreSoSo (December 7, 2007)
anyone else notice Against Me! isn't on the list anymore? 1+ Reply
Salvador (December 9, 2007)
now if you throw No Use For A Name, Lagwagon, Bosstones, Methadones, Milliencolin or maybe The Falcon I would be down with that...even though BK from The Falcon hates the Warped Tour.

the academy is..., the devil wears prada, and we the kings
