Amazing Feats From Warped Tour

At Warped Tour, the crowds are always more than willing to do whatever the bands ask while they are on stage…and ask they did. Of the 10-ish bands I actually stopped and listened to, about 8-ish of them hand some sort of hand gesture for the crowd to do. It’s like watching a cult in action. I figured the day was all about non-conforming, so I refused to participate in the hand gestures. Well…okay…I’ll be honest, I really didn’t think about non-conformists much that day…I was just holding beer and didn’t want to spill it because it cost a freaking arm and a leg.

There were these police towers about 50 feet in the air. They looked like those things they use to work on street lights. It was so big brother-ish and it really creeped me out. At one point, the cop was leaning out of it smoking and I couldn’t help but stare…I was praying that he would spit on one of those annoying frat boys, but he didn’t.

I forgot to mention that Katy Perry graced us with her presence towards the end of the night. Her tent was bright pink and you could see it from a mile away. She did a signing at one point and the place was packed. Her show was awesome and she definitely out-performed plenty of other bands. I got some video for you to check out. Listen to her then go buy her CD.
