I don't think so mainly because there's no way Anberlin would do it since they're not together anymore.
As mentioned, Hayley was at Warped but with her tent. NFG even play Vicious Love and I was stoked, low and behold nothing.
I was thinking one time reunion or something. Or Anchor & Braille. Like I said super hopeful thinking haha.
I think that's just more of a "warped alumni" type playlist since I think every band (or at least almost every band) on the list has played warped tour before.
To be fair, Kevin only said there would be a surprise visitor AT the tour, which does not really indicate a performance of any kind.
And he posted it on his personal Twitter page. There was never an official announcement about a special visitor.
I would have been a little disappointed if I went to the Nashville date. I was expecting something a little bigger based on his tweet. I also would have probably tried getting a picture with her. But this year's lineup is just too good.
More or less Anthony Raneri was side stage for NFG. A bunch of people in the scene have been moving to the Nashville/Franklin area for the past 4-5 years. Jack O'Shea and Josh Portman live here too, on top of Ryan Key, Chad Gilbert/Hayley Williams, and Arun Bali.
That's twice now I have seen the I See Stars and Issues conflict. Really worried it's gonna happen at Charlotte and VA Beach.
Emarosa/Broadside would be my only major conflict. Nice. The next 6 days are going to go by so slowly though. Haha
The only thing I'm nervous about at my date is ETID conflicting with NFG, LTJ or Sum 41. Everything else I can easily decide from
That specifically I would have absolutely no idea what to do. I just saw LTJ do Losing Streak and Hello Rockview so I could skip them if I really had too, Sum 41 I've never seen so I'd have to see them but NFG and ETID are tied for how much I like, how many times I've seen them and how much fun I'd have seeing them haha
As long as KP doesn't conflict with the 9 bands that I want to see on Main Stage, I'll be a happy camper.
So it looks like Reel Big Fish and Teenage Bottlerocket have conflicted at least twice already since the tour started. Realllly hoping that doesn't happen at my date.
