Fond Fare-WARPED: Warped Update #8

Fond Fare-WARPED: Warped Update #8

Warped Tour started and ended with a sunrise. From the sunrise on my front porch the morning of my birthday, to this morning's warm orange salute, my cross-country adventures have come to a close once more. It's August 5th, and I just got home from an early morning run to drop off a friend off at the airport for his final flight home. Warped Tour is over and done, another summer on the books. These past eight weeks have been exhausting, but they have also been some of the most fun I have ever had.

A Day in the Life of Warped: Mini Update #7

I thought it might be time for me to do a small "Day In the Life" so that during this 10-day run without a day off (read: blogging). Every person's day runs a little differently than the next out at Warped Tour. The way I see it, there are five different basic groups of people on Warped: Production team, stage crew, artist team/merchies, non-profits, and artists themselves.

OH CANADAAAH: Warped Update #4

Happy belated 4th of July, friends! It's Saturday the 5th and we are slowly making our way off of the island of Parc Jean-Drapeau in Montréal, Quebec. Today was day two of two in Canada and we’re finally heading back to the states. Since I last updated you all, we have driven two thirds of the way across the continental US and made our way through Canada. I’ve gone from Portland, OR to Montréal in 6 days - pretty insane, huh?!
