O think the'yre releasing just enough good bands to keep OUR hopes until, then they'll release all the shitty bands to get the pre-pubescent to barely adolescent market that they fight for to sell out the shows.

There are now enough good bands on this year's tour to make me want to go. I bet all the good bands don't play the Seattle date though. 5+ Replies

This has to be the first time in many a year that the good/acceptable bands have outweighed those like Chiodos and Escape the Fate. 1+ Reply

I can't believe there is no news on a friday night. I guess they make the news on friday nights and it is subsequently reported en sabado gigante.

Wow the Warped Tour is actually having punk bands play it, and good ones at that. Is this a sign of the apocalypse?

So at my work's Christmas party last night, we played white elephant or Yakeeeeeeee swap (for you Office fans), and I could've gotten Hulk hands, but I ended up with a copy of Big Momma's House. Talk about elation to utter defeat... 2+ Replies

lookin forward to a Warped show for the first time since 04... it's really fuckin early for NYC this year, though.
UNTJosh (December 20, 2008)
How long until Rancid/Strung Out/H20 are added? At this rate virtually any band I'd want to see will be there.
flamebaitnickloving (December 20, 2008)
Hopefully one more sweet band I'd pay to see doesn't show up so I can skip out on this tour. I really don't want to go but my rule is 7. If 7 bands I like plays, I'll go.

it's like going to see fireworks in the daytime. Pointless and erotic.

"Confess your sins, child." "Well," he's pretty sure he's going to throw up now. He should just leave, now. "I've had...relations with a married person." The words are heavy in his mouth, falling out like bricks. Everything is rushed. There is always a sense of being caught. They get tangled in the sheets as they move to the bed, clothes being thrown in every direction. He can see a faint outline of the priest nodding. "And are you aware of your sins and your reasons for acting on these impulses?" Spencer buries his head in the crook of Aaron's neck, breathing deep. The force is jarring them both up, and the crappy headboard of the motel room bed is making a dull rhythmic thud. The only other noise is the sound of flesh and breathing. "Actually, there's more." By now he's just praying someone swings the doo show rest of comment 1+ Reply
