Here are some clips from the Lyman chat about Warped, a bit more detail then the last post: Will Less Than Jake be playing and who else? :Yeah (Less Than Jake), and H2O and New Found Glory; One Man Army if they get a record out. There's a lot of great bands like the Explosion out of the Northeast--they'll definitely be on some dates. We're talking to Rancid, they have some other commitments, but we have to figure out how many dates they can play. This is gonna be a year when we bring a lot of new bands. There's a great undercurrent of new bands. There's gonna be a lot of surprises. Keep an open mind this year, because I've been talking to artists about their favorite bands--Fat Mike, Fletcher, Toby from H2O, Vinnie from Less Than Jake--and getting their input on good bands that they've heard of. About Weezer: Hopefully. I talked to Rivers on the phone last night. So hopefully they can play some of the dates this year. About Pennywise: Don't be surprised, I'm pretty sure they will. Odds are I'd bet on it. About MxPx and NOFX: Probably no MxPx, but you could see Me First & the Gimme Gimmes this year. About Emo: There might be the Get Up Kids, and Promise Ring. About Beatsteakes and Europe: Beatsteaks, probably not. There's a band from Spain called Dover that we like. We're looking for European bands, we're always looking
