I never posted about Warped did I?
Huh, strange, I usually do. Well, I guess I will now.
Honestly? I liked the past years a lot more than this year. Kristine and I went to Honda Civic...oh...I need to talk about that too.
Honda Civic Tour
Alright. So Kristine and I got there pretty much mid-afternoon and met up with Jessica and Kayla and Tim and a tonnn of other people that were with them. We pretty much sat in line for hella days, basically didn't even get early entry even though we were told we would, and once we got in we got on barricade and waited.
Cobra Starship played and I re-fell in love with Gabe Saporta's whiteass. Seriously, no white man should dance like he does.
So after their set I was feeling sick. I started getting sweaty and couldn't breathe and right as Paul Wall's techies were finishing up, I passed out. See, this is what you need to understand. We were in this outdoor venue, right? Well, the right side got shade and the sun was beating down on the left side. I was on the left side and they refused to give us water. So, I passed out.
I woke up and Paul Wall was playing and they were carrying me out. I saw Lauren, and passed out again, woke up and I was backstage. I was hella delierious, I couldn't even remember where I was for a while. I thought the EMT was Kayla's boyfriend Tim because he seriously looked like Tim's clone, same glasses and hair and everything.
So they're checking my blood pressure and it's low and I'm about to pass out again when I hear a HELLA familiar voice go "What the fuck is wrong here?"
And, no lies, there in front of me stood Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker. I was so out of it when I got to talk to them, but it was Mark and Travis. They're like, founders of what I am today. The reason I met Erin and Alex.
So I met them in my half-aware state and then they left. The Academy Is... were all sitting backstage chatting and the EMTs were like, "Do you know who they are?" and I was like "Well duh! The mothafuckin Academy is...! I love them!" and like, I was the only one backstage that wasn't supposed to be there so everyone kept staring.
They let me go back right before TAI played, so I hopped back into the crowd feeling better and I all throughout TAI's set I "moshed" my way up to the barricade again. I got my spot back after +44 played. Got Mark's pick. Fall Out Boy played, but in my opinion +44 and Cobra had the best sets. OH BUT, LOL @ ME GETTING ON THE SCREEN DURING GOLDEN AND NOT KNOWING UNTIL DIANA'S FRIEND TOLD ME. ahahahha I had my eyes closed that whole song, oh god, I must've looked like such a douche.
Got home at like 1, finally went to bed at around 2.30 after we both showered and shit.
WARPED TOUR
Got up at 6.30, got ready with Kristine. We opted for wearing shorts because it was going to be hot out, and it was a good choice even though for the first bit of Warped I looked like a whore.
Went to Ivanes at like 8, left her house at 8.30-ish after we picked up her bros and all. Got to MtnView, grabbed some coffee, and met up with my soulmate for a few to give her coffee.
Went in, headed for the sign. Saw that I wasn't really interested in anyone, so I lurked the merch area a little. Found Lauren, hungout a little, left and went on a dubhunt with Ivane & Kristine. Re-metup with Lauren, went to go see Circa Survive. Lauren and I stood in back and talked about sexingup Anthony Green and smoking him out. After Circa, we left and went on another Dub hunt. We didn't want to see anyone until Playradioplay! was going on so we just kinda walked around the merch area and made fun of all the merch kids we thought looked weird. My American Heart is greedy with their weed, ahaha. Lying and saying you don't know when someone is rolling a fatty joint right next to you is never smarrrrt.
We went to get a spot at PRP!, saw Meg&Dia's last half of their set. Diana saw me from across the venue, That gave me a smile. Watched PRP! played, cutest boy everrrr. Dan is just adorable.
Left to go Dub hunt somemore, got a tobacco blunt cinnamon flavoured. It was disappointing. Met All Time Low, got their EP and a shirt. Went and saw Cute, got called a whore by an 11 year-old boy in the crowd. Decided I felt too old at Cute's sets ahaha. Met up with Diana after FF5's set, and we went to go see Paramore and we were going to go see All Time Low together. But, my ride made me leave early so I didn't get to see either of them.
Didn't get sunburnt, got home, and all in all it was a good day. Not as good as the year before, but it was still a good day.
I'm going to San Francisco on Wedensday with Joey. He's taking me Birthday shopping!!! =]
My birthday is in 21 dayyyys. I have to do all this shit early though cause I start school before my birthday comes and I am not allowed to go places during school =/ only weekend concerts and A FEW weekday ones.
oh well. SENIOR YEAR IS ALMOST HERE AND I AM SO STOAKED FOR IT!
oh and, 2 weeks from today I get to go to SWC Monterey :] Yayyyyyy
