Warped Tour 2017 Festival • Page 22

Calling it now. Next year warped will be stacked for pop punkfans and metal people like me will be cranky.

 

Any guesses why?

 

Kevin didn't really go into detail. He posted a brief video announcing it on his Twitter page if you wanted to watch for yourself. He just did the typical reasons beyond our control type explanation.

 

Likely poor ticket sales

 

I'm thinking there is something wrong on the venue's end. Outlaw Music Fest just cancelled their scheduled stop at the same place, which was planned for 3 days after the Warped show.

 

Yea it's definitely a venue issue, surprised they put it out there in the first place.

 

I seriously can't wait to see Candiria.

They haven't played more than a handful of shows since their van crash in 2002... and if I'm correct, all of those shows were in NY or NJ.

 

BAAO album didn't come out like they announced back in December, in case anyone was interested.

 

I can't believe my date is next weekend. Kind of sneaking up on me since I didn't know if I could go until this week.

 

What happened with it exactly? I didn't see an announcement saying it got delayed or anything.

 

That's because they didn't announce it was being delayed. They haven't mentioned it in months and pre-orders were never launched, so it was a fair assumption to say it was being delayed. But it's still shitty to not say anything about your album being delayed and hoping people just forgot it was supposed to come out

Edit:Looks like they did actually tweet about it, directing all questions to Equal Vision

 

Something seems very off in the BAAO camp right now. Warped starts in a week and they haven't made a Facebook post since May 13th. That's extremely strange. Everybody else on the tour is very active on social media at the moment.

 

Ouch! That's not a good tweet at all.

 

I'd really like to nail down a ride for next weekend. I would take the Rally bus, but it seems unreliable and I don't want to risk it. If anyone if is coming through/from Portland I can provide $20 gas money or a ticket to Taking Back Sunday in exchange for a ride.

Because Equal Vision needs to give us something

 

The whole BAAO thing is just odd. You'd think Equal Vision would want to push this new album super hard, what with them being their only band on Warped this year.

 

That's why this makes no sense. EV always do a great job promoting albums especially the acts on Warped Tour. There's 2 scenarios I can think of right now. It's either EV doesn't like the album or BAAO went over budget/album isn't done yet. Other than that, I don't think we'd be in the dark about this and that tweet from the band doesn't put EV in a good light.

 

Yeah it's definitely the first. BAAO is different from many bands on EQ, sounds like they expected a more mainstream approach. The three songs I have heard are phenomenal

 

The Ataris posted this image. I don't know if it's just a reference to the tour starting or if they're releasing something that day.

 

On the warped tour compilation they have a song listed I don't recognize called trash panda, maybe it's that

 

It's from this EP they put out last year, all songs that were written before The Ataris first album.

 

:(

 

Ohh that makes sense, I didn't know they made this as it doesn't appear on anything I use
