Warped Tour 2008 aka old jaded show goer

Warped tour 2008 rolled through the Pier yesterday in SF. I must note that it is coming back to our area AGAIN august 16th. How do I know? The two bands on the tour I wanted to see are on THAT date. I found this out at 2am the night before.

I could not sleep. I tried at 4am, and at 6am debated on just staying up. I met up with Mace @ 9am. I decided to still go because I did not want to go back on my word for buying the ticket off him and I had nothing else planned during the day.

We get there, and it was as expected: hot and boring. I wandered most of my time there, catching bands as I passed by. I spent $18 on staying hydrated. I eventually found a hardcore pit, and left because it was completely newjack city. I ended up talking shit to people with James and yelling "Fuck my life!" randomly. This corporate teeny bopper fest was not something I wished to endure if there were no bands worth that personal sacrifice to see. After 3 hours, I journeyed home. It was good seeing friends left and right, but I should have backed out in hindsight. The sleep would have been nice.

Although the water balloon fight I got into later that night was amazing...
