So
far, I'd have to say that playing on the
Warped Tour has been pretty amazing. We're
out in Arizona right now. The response
has been surprisingly overwhelming. We
have never been on a national tour before,
so even if we had 5 kids there to see
us we would have been stoked. Instead,
we've had anywhere from 300 to 1,000 kids
attending each show we play and singing
along to every word. So you can imagine
how excited we are about all of this.
The shows have been killer. Everyday we
rock the Volcom stage, but sometimes we
get upped to the bigger stages which totally
rocks. I think that our overall show is
pretty tight and rockin'.
Everyday we chill with all our old and
new friends like Letter Kills(fucking
sick new band), Never Heard of It, The
Goodwill, Damone, Western Waste, The Used,
The Ataris, and so many more. Its crazy
going to lunch or dinner and sitting next
to one of your idols. If I had to describe
the Warped tour in anyway it would be
"the punk rock summer camp".
There's the cool kids, the uncool kids,
the kiss-asses, and the modest. We fit
somewhere in the "uncool" section.
Sometimes we get to chill with someone
cool. hehehehe. Its fun as hell. The parties
are rad.
That pretty much sums everything up. I'd
just like to conclude with the fact that
Judas almost got bit by a rattlesnake
the other night while driving to Arizona.
We stopped for a pee break before entering
Arizona in the desert, and just as I yelled,
"Look out for snakes guys!"
As soon as I said that I looked over at
Judas as he was peeking into the bush
next to him. Then he flipped out saying
there was a snake right next to him. So
we got the video camera and as soon as
we turned the camera's light on and pointed
it in the snake's direction it started
rattling. Needless to say we got up out
of there so fast. It was kinda like Scooby-do.
Ya know, when they get scared they run
in mid-air for a second before taking
off. Yeah, funny story.
Thanks for reading my ramblings. Keep
it real. See you at the shows. Look for
our new album "Stories and Alibis"
coming out on Sept. 23rd. Rock on.
