The calm before the Warped

Sunscreen - check
$$$ for water and food - check
Pens/laptop/notebooks - check
Anti-Hero deck with Independent trucks and Spitfire wheels - check (on second thought, it's best to leave the skateboard at home; it's been a while since my days of noseslides and crooked grinds)

I'll be heading off to Warped Tour in just a little bit. The bands will start going on around 1 p.m., and I'm planning to get to the Sleep Train Amphitheatre right around that time. So how will this all play out? Who knows. At last count, there were, oh, 1.5 million bands playing at this Warped Tour. Well maybe not that many, but by the looks of the schedule it sure seems that way. It'll be hectic, but it should be some gnarly fun as well. Catch you on the flip ...
