Vans REALLY Warped Tour
You have to wonder how bad your band has to be to NOT make the cut for the Vans Warped Tour. By our quick count, it looks like 75 to 80 artists are scheduled to perform on eight stages when the tour comes to Nissan Pavilion on Wednesday, August 10. Eighty bands you've barely heard of playing a one-day outdoor festival in the middle of August? Sign me up. The headliners, if you can call them that, include MXPX, Atreyu, the Offspring, Dropkick Murphys, My Chemical Romance and a bunch of other groups.
If this sounds like the perfect show for you, there's even more good news. The concert begins at 11 a.m. so getting out to Nissan shouldn't be the traffic headache that it usually is.
Tickets for the concert are $29.50 plus service charges and go on sale this Saturday at noon.

Wow, looks like you really have a firm grasp of a wide spectrum of music. It's not our fault you don't broaden your perspective of music. Love the sarcasm Joe.
