Warped tour! Part 1

So this is going to wind up having a few parts. There's no way I'm going to type and/or remember everything that happened yesterday.

So first things first, I got an interview with Micah Kinard of Oh, Sleeper. You'll hear that interview soon on 3SN and I'll get some pictures up. Look forward to it! The guy was so inspiring.

I ran around for half the day in a unicorn mask.

Sup.























I talked to Jake Luhrs of August Burns Red, and communicated with The Chariot aswell. I tried to get interviews with them, and they were interested, but because this is a canadian date, it wasn't possible. The reason for that is most of these guys have american cell phones, so no service in canada. So while they're here, it's virtually impossible to hold them to a commitment that isn't directly related to critical warped tour stuff. Lame, but what can you do. I had to convince Micah to meet me (for an unnofficial interview which isn't even allowed, so he was awesome for agreeing to it) at a stage across the venue where we would go find somewhere quiet to chat. The guy actually came, in the pouring rain, all of us looking like wet dogs.

Then the dude pretty much blew the minds of my photographer and I, because this guy is smart. Like, really smart.
So at first, he's super reserved, like he hasn't decided if we're legit yet, probably thought we were kidnapping him. Then the guy opens up, starts to talk, and.. bam. You're going to have to listen to 3SN to get what I'm throwing down.
