listening to: Dub Trio - Agonist
alex, i'm liking Dub Trio more and more. maybe next i'll come around to Porcupine Tree. heh, we'll see.
warped tour. so good. the drive down was pretty nice. (terror)tori was entertaining in the back seat because any time i made eye contact with her she would start laughing. never failed. the drive down to chicago went real quick and my car made it just fine. got there about 11 their time i think. took about 2 1/2 hours. not bad. hung out with rich and adam. john ate a poisoned porkchop sandwich. lulz. movie with women eating babies to look younger. piano player with fingers axed off. crazy twin girls the fire and an angry father. i don't even know.
woke up the next morning. girls brought over a ridiculous amount of breakfast food. awesome. left late for warped, i was a little grouchy because of that. all in one vehicle, a nice vehicle with a gps named Lola. rich didn't follow lola right, but we made it there. heh. didn't miss any bands i really cared about. bands i saw/enjoyed
Ever Time I Die: Good show. i probably danced hardest during this one, it was the first of the day for me. crowdsurfed once, good stuff. got hit by a crowdsurfer and my face smashed into a guy in front of me. felt like a bleeder but it was fine. until 10 minutes later when a single drop of blood fell out. then 5 minutes later another. it was weird.
Oreskaband: All girl Japanese ska band. need i say more? they were fun.
Protest the Hero: drunk canadian. funny. really good guitar. really good bass too, i had no idea. tap tap tapped it up. "there's enough love and sunshine going around here at warped tour, so this song is about tearing your friends apart"
All That Remains: um... not cool guys. oh well
Tat: Punk from London. doesn't get much better than a female guitarist/vocalist with an accent. she rocked out.
Anberlin: caught a few of their songs. they're pretty good live. i should listen to them more
The Devil Wears Prada: love them. they played their cover of Still Fly and it was amazing. danced it out. crowdsurfed, got dropped because while i was in the air another guy was tossed on top of me. my phone fell out of my pocket and i didn't notice until somebody next to me was holding up a phone. that was close. so intense.
i think that's about it. after the show we went and ate at culver's and then back to rich's/adam's to hang for a bit. got on the road pretty late. i made it back to my house around 4am. woke up at 7:45 to shower and go to church.
in short, it's nap time.
good times. peace.

Sounds like you had and excellent time! I like your descriptions of the bands :)
ReplyDeleteProtest would be sooo good live. i'm kinda jealous. and it'd be good to see TDWP again, hopefully under better circumstances. i gotta make it to warped next time
