my 2012 Warped Tour story

Yesterday sucked basically. So i thought I'd share it with all of you just so you guys get a laugh at how my day went :).

First, for all of you who don't know what Warped Tour is, it is a 70+ band tour of pop punk, post hardcore, punk, hip hop, and metal bands. All across north america and they play pretty much every day. Tickets are remotely cheap ($30-$40 a piece) and they get some kick ass bands for anyone who likes the genre's, so normally it is an amazing time. But yea, here ya's go.

Woke up at 4:30 am, and ate breakfast. Thought that the rest of the day should be awesome. Got in the car with my girlfriend and her friend at around 5 and set off for Montage Mountain in Scranton, PA. It was only an hour drive, and we thought we could be first in line. Sadly, we weren't. We weren't allowed to park in the parking lot yet at the venue yet, so we drove down the road and relaxed for an hour or so. Finally were allowed into the parking lot around 8 am, and were told "a bus will be here to drive you up the hill to the venue in a few minutes." It ended up being an hour and a half. So we sat in the sun for 90 minutes for a bus, when we could have walked up the hill in the sun in an hour. NO BIGGIE.

Finally got to the venue, and stood in line for 2 hours until we were let in. And as always, people are dumb and cut in front of everyone else and we ended up being in the later half of the line when we finally got in rather than in the first 30-50 people. BLAH! We got in, and went to look at the set list for each stage to see when the bands we wanted to see were playing. go figure, all of mine were late in the afternoon... so i watched some bands i didn't exactly like for a while.

At around 2:30 pm, the sun went away and it started to rain. and i mean RAIN. thunder, lightning, a fucking river starting at our feet. The workers ended up stopping everything for an hour so people could get away from the metal poles and fences so they don't get hit by lightning or anything. They started the show up again around 3 when the rain finally slowed down, and the band playing that i was watching got 1 song in, and they shut it down again. we had to walk across the venue to get out of the rain, and i got split up from everyone i was there with. sadly, my phone didn't make it the rest of the day. it got water logged, and i could hardly use it. GREAT. i was split up from my friends, with no working phone, and in the pouring rain. after about an hour of looking for them, i finally gave up and walked back to the car.

THERE WAS NO ONE AT THE CAR. i left the concert for nothing, and now wasn't allowed back in. AND IM ALONE. IN THE RAIN. >:|. i ended up getting my phone to work for about 5 minutes, and i texted my girlfriend saying i was at the car, and can't get back into the concert. she showed up an hour later with her friend and we left.

i put my phone in rice when we got home and today when i woke up, it still didn't work. just bought a new phone 2 hours ago.

so yea, i broke my phone, got split up from my friends for half the day, and didn't even get to see ANY of the bands that i wanted to see. waste of $30 if you tell me.

:/. next year better be insane.

the battle of the bands was over for a while. it was just to see who would play on the actual tour.

and the only bands i saw were BlessTheFall, and We The Kings. and then i had to stand there and watch some stupid rapper who i didn't like so my girlfriend could see another stupid rapper who i didn't like. and it got rained out for him anyway. so yea.

BUT yea, got a new phone last night after mine was destroyed.
