Warped Tour 8-14

Warped Tour brings something into the air that just stirs up people's soul and bowls. Not everyone followed the "pee before the road" rule.

Pablo's Ink

We started the morning looking at Pablo's Volkswagen tattoo. I stared, really. Who gets a VW on their arm? To each his own.

Pablo Dave and Brian in a Car

Pablo "hoopty" with Dave and Brian inside on Westside Ave. What you don't see is me sprawled across Jason and Zach. We didn't fit in the back so they had to carry me the whole way there. It was good and kinda warm. I felt funny but they said it was only their cell phones. We caught up on what happened in the year.



Deviant Jason

Yeah....a Cell Phone.



Deviant Zach

They Always Say its a Cell Phone.

Schweaty Danwich

As soon as we finally got into the fucking Warped Tour, WAM!!! We find the most marvelous thing to ever come about....All Hail the SHOWER TENTS!. Sweet Jesus was it good. Dan Love it (obviously.)

Schweaty Vany

Spinkles weren't enough for me. I filled a whole Gatorade bottle with the river water. and DRANK it too. Now, let me explain the shirt. At first, I was wearing a Finch shirt. I took it off because it was just too damn hot. Then I had a wifebeater on. Wife-beater + Water + boys. So then i bought a pink Warped shirt...again..Pink shirt + Water+ boys. grr.

Schweaty Dan and Vany

Dan licked my noce because i look like a purple person.

Karen's 'Accident' @ Senses Fail

Karen had a bit of an accident. We both took a nap during Senses Fail. No offense to the bad but...c'mon....their crowd sucked ass.

Hustlin' at the Monster truck

mmm! Free shitty-tasting Energy drinks! Thanks to Jay for finding it. Althought it said that you had to have eater something before chuggin, i figured it would pack an extra punch on an empty stomach. I guessed wrong. that shit sucked.

mmmm! monster!!!

hopefully, with zach pimpin the logo, maybe i'll have another MONSTERRRR.

A7X

Avenged Sevenfold...in the words of Leche, AAAaaaarrrgggghhhh.

BAD My Chemical Romance picture

My Chemical Romance, could have been better but good none the less.

Fall Out Biz-oy

Fall out boy......No.

Reggie and the Full Effect and some peacekeeper dude

The Best....Reggie and the (freakin) Full Effect.

Moral of the Day: When You say "I'll be home on Monday" they hear "I'll be home right after the concert with the money."

MIA was DOA so we Am-scrayed

After such an eventful show, Danwich, Jhonny and I decided it was best to skip another disappointment (MIA at Summerstage) and got hang out on 14th Street all day.


"When I feel a little quenched from a long walk from Port Authority to Columbus Circle, I grabbed free samples of Starbucks Green Tea Fraps! MMM! That hits the spot! :Thumbs Up:"

Nothing better thanJhonny got a spiffy 5 dolla' hat,ya'll! You can see the Forever21 bag on Dan's lap. We could live and die on that block. Forever21 + Whole Foods = life. I died in Forever21. All these tops and I only had ten bucks. So I bought a sweater on clearance that I won't be able to wear until October. Fuck you, its pretty.

Coheed and Cambria at Central Park


Saturday was the free Coheed and Cambria show at Central Park's Summerstage. My brother and I woke up damn early and got to North Bergen at 9. By the time everyone was ready, it was almost 11. But hey, thats where the adventure began.

I'm glad Wikit made it. She was talking to Van for most of the busride to NYC. You mostly heard "aw" and "shut up" but it was cute because they girl tends to giggle a lot when you stare at her midway an affectionate name-call.

FASTFOWARD ONE HOUR LATER:

=.

It didn't take too long to get in. I took the opportunity to take a nice group picture before the crowd starting forming. My brother was standing out like whoa when we realized he was wearing white.

Then this smokin' piece of Spainard Ani-DiFranco style songstress hit the stage. He entire set was in Spanish. Stupid Coheed kids tried to boo her off but she said "Fuck yourselves," so it was all good. I think Wikit and Chrissy were about to climax when she started stripping down. Chrissy caught her water bottle. Used water bottle. mm-hmm. Chrissy technically frenched BeBe. But besides that, I was really impressed. She had all these mega-fans with signs and literal...fans. I just hate how much shit she got. It was a LATIN FESTIVAL not FREE WARPED TOUR STAGE. Sometimes, I hate my generation.



Then, probably the only Boriqua that I like in the music industry, hit the stage. My brother got his white shirt autographed so it did serve a purpose. The crowd was kind of stupid. So kid puked. A shoeless crowdsurfer fell (and stepped) on it. Actually, the puke was all over this kid's crotch. It was sad. The condom balloons were all popped. Co&Ca only about 2 singles. They rest were of the "In Keeping Secrets..." album. It was fun. They opened with "Welcome Home" which was pretty great. They played "A Favor House Atlantic" so everyone knew that. Then...there was a 12 minute epic song at the end. It was good and all but seriously, save it for the headlining tour.

Afterwards, we hit up the Micky D's. I kinda sat there, trying to regain some sort of composure after experiencing how shitty a free-show crowd can be.


Imagine my face of astonishment when I found out MCDONALD'S DELIVERS?!?!

I don't know why we think this picture's so damn funny. Maybe its how Jhonny's so impressed by cardboard cutouts of asian couples.
