Snagged mine for Mansfield, so I'll be there and Hartford. Might be hitting Mansfield solo if my girlfriend can't get the day off from work if anyone's trying to hang!
Got Tampa and West Palm for $20 a pop. Orlando was not part of the deal so it's okay that I bought that ticket already. Now I can spend a little more money on my hotels for those nights.
I had to pay 6 dollar fees for the Va Beach ticket but Charlotte was 20. So I got 3 tix for 66 total (2 for Va Beach with gf) can't beat that. Definitely wasnt gonna go to 2 dates beforehand but this helps!
A lot of my friends and saying they went pretty quickly for most shows. I got Weezer and Paramore tickets too, and the former is already gone.
These guys were known in the Drive Thru Records era which is why I'm not surprised some people here wouldn't have heard of them. I don't even think I've heard a song from them since Lechuza and I know that was very early in the 2000s
Still waiting for a band or bands to fill 6/21-6/23 on Left Foot. Then 6/30-7/8 needs some filling (7/5 needs 2 bands on Left Foot). There's still some room for the rest of the tour too.
Fenix TX played my first Warped, had a pretty big crowd if I remember right. They were actually the first band I watched a full set from that day. Saw bits of The Bouncing Souls and The Vandals but I was with a friend who wasn't into punk so he didn't want to stick around. I actually missed so much that day because I was worried about getting separated. Wish I could re-do 2001 and 2002.
2008 was one of my favorite years. Story Of The Year, Anberlin, The Pink Spiders, Between The Trees, TAI, ADTR etc,
I had fun in 2008, but would see some different bands than I did at the time. I still saw a good batch, though. Angels & Airwaves, Against Me, From First To Last, Set Your Goals, Protest The Hero, Every Time I Die, Pennywise, The Lordz, Dr. Manhattan, Katy Perry, Shwayze, Bring Me The Horizon, Reel Big Fish, and All That Remains. In retrospect, I can't believe I skipped Say Anything, Ludo, The Audition, and The Human Abstract.
2008 was the first year that nearly ended the tour. Gas prices went through the roof. 10-11 stages worth of bands, crew, etc. That's why Kevin scaled back the following year, had only one main stage and 7-8 stages. I know 2010 didn't do very well either. Kevin saw bands playing smaller stages outdrawing bands on main from 2009-2010 and switched things up for 2011. I think Face to Face drawing so poorly as a main stage act in 2010 made Kevin realize that just because a band was a main stage act once didn't mean they still were. In 2011 bands that had been headliners previously (Simple Plan, Sum 41, Relient K, Street Dogs, Unwritten Law, and Hellogoodbye) were all pushed down to smaller stages. Less Than Jake and Pepper weren't even listed as main stage bands originally. They were supposed to be on the Tilly's Stage with select bumps up to Main but I think someone pulled out last minute and both bands wound up just staying on Main for the whole tour. Without that extra money from Kia coming in for 2012 I wonder if they would have stuck with the one main stage model?
Saw livenation say they were adding more of some of the ones that sold out at some point, or at least they were trying... so check back periodically. im hoping paramore philly gets more discounted tickets haha
