To take you through how our day at the vans warped tour went...

Mid Night - 1 am: Packing up and leaving a basement show(which rocked by the way)

1am to 2am: Band Sleep over / Not sleeping when we should of been sleeping

2am to 5am: Sleepy time for Chris and P.j. Epic fail for Zach and Brad as they got not even one minute of sleep =(

5am to 6am: Waking up, (or not pending on the member) packing up, getting food and water so we wouldn’t have to pay for the over priced warped tour food and drinks and heading to Adina's house(the greatest person in the world who was nice enough to wake up early and drive us). Also dong had to sneak out of his house. His parents made him quit the band last year when he got a C+ in honors chemistry 3

6 am: Leaving for the show. (Thanks again Adina)


8am to 9:30 am: Arriving at the show. Sitting around outside of the fest because none of security believed we were actually in a band. Why do we have to dress so casually? Next time it's tight jeans, straightened hair, and glasses that are to cool for us.

9:30am to 10:am Finally we get passes and are allowed to start bringing in our gear, which meant making several trips on foot to and from the main parking lot through the fest to our stage

10am to 11am: Killing time. Arguing about where our merch table should go and bitching about A) How we should have brought a merch tent and B) How we should have brought a dolly or something on wheels to bring all our equipment in and out.

11am to 1pm: Wandering around. Not doing anything

(I'm going to stop labeling all the times with a "am" or "pm", I’m sure you can all catch on)

1 to 1:30: Warming up, getting nervous. Complaining about how we should have practiced that week but couldn’t cause Chris was away and didn’t get back till the day before.

1:30 to 2:00: Show time. Played a really really really fun show. Big crowd of people who weren't just our close friends and they all seemed to really enjoy it and get in to it. =) Our stage was right behind Big D's tent and I think they were doing a signing while we were playing so I think we got a lot of their crowd. Also, the people running the Hellcat Records tent came over to watch us because they heard us from a far and apparently really liked us. I'm sure they'll sign us to a multi album contract any day now.

2:00 to 2:45: Talking to all the people at our merch table. Rushing to pack up and run all our stuff out to the car in time to make it back to catch streetlight.

2:45 to 3:15: STREETLIGHT MANIFESTO! So good. Could go on and on about how much we love this band and how much fun we have every time we see them

3:55 to 4:30: Less Than Jake.

.. ..

4:55 to 5:30: NOFX.(Chris swings by the LTJ signing, chats it up with Vinnie and slips him a demo. (I'm sure we'll also be hearing from him any day now)

5:45 to 6:15: Big D and the Kids Table


6:15 to 6:30: Catch the tail end of Flogging Molly’s set.

6:45 to 7:30: Hitting up a bit of Westbound Train. Some of Bad Religion, and heading out for the long ride home. (Also in the parking lot we found a can of pink hair spray and made dongs hair pink and wrote Ska! on the back of brads head.

7:30 to 9: TRAFFIC!!!! Hooray. Going for pizza. Complaining about how sore and burnt we are and raving about how much fun we had and how well everything went.

To the 5 of you who actually read this, thanks, and Chris lee owes you a cookie.
kbye
