i need warped tour info...going tomorrow and barely prepared

[easy0lucky0free]

so i've never been and tomorrow (june 21 in SF) i'm going and i'm trying to figure out when the bands i want to see are playing and where all the stages are in relation to each other. and of course it has none of this info on the warped website.

so what i know is who i want to see and what stages they're playing (i don't know the orders they're playing in, though - i just listed the bands alphabetically)

main stage
the academy is...
cobra starship
from first to last
gym class heroes
say anything

hurley.com stage
katy perry

hurley stage
pierce the veil
we the kings

so what i need to know is the order of the bands at those stages and times each band begins and ends, that is, if they plan it like that.
and i need, like, a map of the stages (if that even exists), but i would imagine that it wouldn't be exactly the same at every show. will they have maps there?
and aren't there two main stages?
i'd really appreciate it if you had answers to any of these questions, preferably soon :-)

[shit stroll]

don't go see the bands you listed.

also, search function.

[TakeLotsWithAlcohol]

Best advice, don't go.

[easy0lucky0free]

why not

[fly_guy]

The set times are made day of show

[TakeLotsWithAlcohol]

why not


It's the most miserable day I've ever been through.

[easy0lucky0free]

oh. thats too bad.

[easy0lucky0free]

The set times are made day of show

alright. thanks.

[fly_guy]

And there are 2 main stages, a Hot Topic stage, and Smartpunk stage

[easy0lucky0free]

And there are 2 main stages, a Hot Topic stage, and Smartpunk stage

how do you know which main stage bands are playing at which main stage?

[fly_guy]

You don't, but you DO know what bands are bigger than the others. And the main stages are right by eachother, so its kind of a 'run back and forth' type thing for most mainstream kids.

[remedyeli]

1. Your not going to see ALL of those bands.
2. Bring a water bottle and fill up at the water fountain. Unless your rich.
3. stay away from the free energy drinks if you know what's good for you.
4. get as much of the free condoms that you can.

I hope that helped.

[fly_guy]

I steal so many free energy drinks, haha

[remedyeli]

haha I just wouldn't drink them while there though.

Seriously. Last year it poored, so there was no real need for water.

it did, thank you. the bands i really want to see are the ones at the main stage - the others i would be okay missing. and i plan on bringing a water bottle. maybe vitamin water. and the prospect of free energy drinks excites me so....well i think i'm going to partake in that. and i really don't think i'm going to need any condoms.

In a few years you will, so why not take a backpack full?

I didn't realize that I was talking to a 13 year old girl...yeah don't get the condoms unless you make balloons out of them which are fun.

and try to check out some other bands when your there?
most of the bands on the mainstage were at the smaller stages in past warped tours too..

[fly_guy]

i WISH it would rain, but i really doubt that it will.

Dont ever say that. When it rains, bands tents blow away and its depressing

i probably will. i bet i'll have a lot of time to kill. and last time i used a condom as a balloon (a water balloon to be exact) i got in trouble. but i was like nine at the time.

[easy0lucky0free]

you make an excellent point. i guess i wasn't thinking about it in terms of the show. it's just been so damn hot lately.

[remedyeli]

yeah you deff will have some time to waste. Just don't be one of those losers who spend 3 hours at the myspace tent posting bulletins.

wellll you can put the condom on your head and blow it up.

[easy0lucky0free]

imagine that...what a sight it would be.

i'll just seek out all the awesome people and we'll drink vitamin water and redbull and remark on how awesome we are. anyway, i rarely post bulletins. only for important stuff.

[googirl8907]

First off, use the search function.
And they announce set lists day of show.

ok people keep saying search function. what do you mean by that?
i thought it was searching the warped site but i went back there and looked for a search thing and couldn't find one.

[shit stroll]

so you admit that the bands you like are as shitty as the bands you criticize?

um speaking of laughable have you seen shaant's incredibly unnecessary combover? cute is what we aim for is alright, though i wouldn't call myself a fan, but i mean really. that hair.

[hockeyguitar99]

I never said that i was happy about it.

Also, the bands on that list are different genre's and styles than most of the music I liked.

[easy0lucky0free]

so then it isn't really the individual bands you have a problem with, just the genre.

[hockeyguitar99]

considering that I'm not a fucked up little scene girl, I don't really care what his hair looks like, as it has nothing to do with how the music sounds.

[hockeyguitar99]

No, they are at the shitty end of their own particular genres.

[easy0lucky0free]

for the record i fucking hate scene.

to each his own. i don't want to fight with you.

[hockeyguitar99]

that wasn't really meant to be a shot at you, I was just saying that most of the people that care about that would considered stupid fucking scene girls

[versus_god]

I hear this year's Vans Warped Tour is going green.

[easy0lucky0free]

considering that I'm not a fucked up little scene girl, I don't really care what his hair looks like, as it has nothing to do with how the music sounds.

one last thing though - you don't know a thing about me. for all you know you're a hundred times more fucked up than i am.

[easy0lucky0free]

that wasn't really meant to be a shot at you, I was just saying that most of the people that care about that would considered stupid fucking scene girls

it's not something i take into consideration when judging whether or not i like a band. it's just an observation i've made.

[hockeyguitar99]

Okay, I already said that it wasn't a shot at you so why are you still bitching about it.

it's not something i take into consideration when judging whether or not i like a band. it's just an observation i've made.
Again, I said it wasn't about you, it was just a statement.

I think it's possible to see all those bands. I am sure that the schedule (since I have a lot of bands I wanna see), is gonna piss me off again this year. Last year I picked Almost over Yellowcard(Paper Walla hadn't come out yet), HUGE mistake.

Also, you NEED to watch Story of the Year. Fucking tremendous live.

alright. i'll have plenty of time to kill, so i'll probably just kind of go around watching whatever bands are playing.

[googirl8907]

Bring lots of sunscreen and water.

Good call.

But remember this: I could easily hall 3 backpacks full of free shit out of their. Ponder that when theres nothing to do between Cobra Starship and The Academy Is...

i'm getting hellla excited about all this free shit. i see the makings of endless entertainment.

[easy0lucky0free]

i plan to. i should make a checklist though.

[Nolessthanblink]

i plan to. i should make a checklist though.

Here's my list:

Every year I bring:
1. Money for merch and ticket (shirts are not over 20 bucks at any of the booths that I have ever seen and I have been going since 2000). Many times you can get a deal with a shirt and hat or something like that from Vans for like 10 bucks.

2. Water bottles (I believe you can bring in two per person). Fill them up between bands throughout the day in the sinks or water fountains. It's free, Hoodlum is an idiot for blowing money.

3. I bring a can of beef jerky strips every year to munch on when I get hungry or need that little extra bit of energy.

4. Sunscreen! (and don't wear just a bikini top. Girls that do that are retarded and begging to be groped in the pit. Sluts.

5. Phone (communication with friends is necessity)

6. Camera, to document meetings with bands.

ours are similar.
my checklist:
student ID (my dad told me i should bring it)
ticket and directions
phone
food (no beef jerky strips for me - i'm vegan. i'm going to bring a bagel)
money for merch
water with ice
travel entertainment (unfortunately though i don't know where my ipod is - i'll probably bring a book that doesn't take up too much space)
sunscreen
giants hat (keeping it real!)

and i don't have a camera. except for the one on my phone, which i will use if there is something i decide i must document.

when i went, i heard chicks complaining about being groped in the pits, these little chicks too dude. i was surprised they even survived.

and guys like to be shirtless in the pits. got a sweaty chest to the face when i was fourteen, and after that, i rarely moshed.

some people take deodorant too. if you think you need it, go for it. the people i talk to would go out to eat after though, so it might be un needed for you otherwise.

[easy0lucky0free]

yeah, the small girl i know who walks around in lingerie when it's hot has just stopped going in the pit because it's just not a pleasant environment for her kind. and also she's short and has trouble seeing.

Yeah, girls get groped at a lot of shows. Wish girls would reverse the trend and start groping guys.

And yeah, shirtless in the pit ftw!

[SanePsychotic]

It's the most miserable day I've ever been through.

Agreed. I went last year and I swear it was one of the most depressing days of my life.

[easy0lucky0free]

Agreed. I went last year and I swear it was one of the most depressing days of my life.

i hope i'll have a better experience
if it did suck then it would be just going outside all day when it's hella hot for no reason
and that would be lame

some of those guys get worked up in those pits. I always end up being the guy picking all the girls up because I stand always get pushed just outside of the huge pit. I tend to think that sweaty shirtless guys are a think to stay away from.

You might as well just bring a 12 pack of soda.

[googirl8907]

Some places only let you bring in 1 unopened bottle of water. So you might check to see what your venue lets you bring.

what date was that? cos I'm going to the Tinley Park IL one.

I'm bringing my sister's camera, & it's kinda big. I probably won't be able to fit it in my pocket or anything haha.

also, I'm bringing a drawstring bag with sunscreen & other stuff like that. do the venues allow that? it's my first year at warped, but I've been to other concerts & they were fine with bags.
