Warped Tour Day #2

Posted by Jenn Aguinaldo on Under Shows & Tours

August 2nd topped the 1st. Have you ever been on stage with your heroes then hang with them near the tour buses ? That was Warped day 2 for me. I was so happy I still can’t comprehend what I did. When Alternative Press gave me a pair of tickets, I thought they were just like any other ticket you could purchase. Why am I always wrong ?

This is in no way even remotely close to being in order.

-Met Uh Oh! Explosion’s Johnny and Kevin. Thanks for signing my CD guys.
-Saw We The Kings perform but couldn’t finish because Alayna decides to have an asthma attack during Travis’s serenade to the crowd. =)
-Warped said The Morning Light would play. I wish they did. I love them with a passion.
-The security guy took my sharpie ! Pff, men.
-Saw Casket Architects.
-Tracked down the band after they perform and manage to get a drumstick and pictures.
-My arm gets tagged with FUKITT again.
-Discovered that our wristbands say ”VIP” for a reason.
-Continue talking to the boys with the headphones trying to get their band heard. I truly support them and their ambition. Remember, even Fall Out Boy sold their own merch at one point.
-Traced about the venue with a chick who works there searching for the so-called ”VIP Tent” which apparently doesn’t exist. I swear I saw it when we walked in.
-The same chick gives us another VIP bracelet to allow us on stage.
-Went on stage with Automatic Loveletter and highfived my new best friend from the band (see right).
-Saw him again after the show. He was like, ”HEY ! I recognize you two !” yay !
-Went back to the Hurley.com stage where Evergreen Terrace was playing.
-Chatted with a band member from a band I don’t remember. He was obviously wasted, but he took a nice picture (:
-Suddenly as I was standing behind the stage I see a man running. I know him. It turns out to be my future husband hero Jack Barakat. I’ve only met him twice, but he really is my icon. I say, ”JACK !” He turns around. I ask if he’s in a hurry and he says he is. Then he does the funniest thing. He grabs my camera and takes a picture of us, signs the sacred bandana, then runs away. I didn’t get to say thank you before you ran, but Jack, thank you. Each time I meet you, you always do the most adorable things.
-Before Katy Perry was about to perform, I met a member from 3OH!3! How cool am i ?
-Was on Katy Perry’s stage while she performed.
-KATY HAD A WATER BOTTLE THROWN AT HER GETTING HER SPLASHED DURING ”ONE OF THE BOYS.”
-She then threw the guitar at her tech (I would too).
-Then flicked off the dude. W00T.
-Props to her for continuing on singing. I really respect her for that.
-Met Katy after her performance.
-Asked Katy a question. The video will be up soon.
-Met All Time Low backstage before they went on.
-Rian really does have piano key teeth !
-Took some Caution tape…I like caution tape..
-Hung out with Chaser again.

Great, great, super great day.
