No problem! There's an awesome video about warped tour tips somewhere in the forum... I think it's in the music section. It's really helpful :3

i went to warped last year if you're bringing sharpies bring black and silver in case they're signing something black :3 also remember to put on sunscreen throughout the say because i put it on on the way there and didn't put it anymore on after that and i was burned really badly e.e

they charge like $3 or something for bottles of water at warped, and they usually don't come with a cap. so i suggest refilling your bottle at the refill station instead of buying new bottles of water a bunch of times throughout the day and if you're going to try to meet a band, then find out what you have to do to meet them tHE SECOND you enter. (most bands require you to have a pass to get into the signings, and they're usually only available to like the first 100 people). hope i helped someone out there wooo

You need a lot of sunscreen, even if it's cloudy out. I went to Warped last month, and I still have lines from my sunburn. One thing I do at Warped, and I always suggest it to everyone: Check out a band you've never heard of. You get to discover new music! While waiting for Attila's set, I checked out "Oh, Sleeper" and I instantly became a fan. I was in the front row, rocking out to amazing songs I've never heard! If you have the money, I would suggest doing a Bandhappy workshop because they are a lot of fun, and you get to learn a lot from people you admire. I did a workshop with Matty Mullins and Kellin Quinn and it was very informational. Have fun, see/meet as many bands as possible

As I mentioned, I did the Matty/Kellin workshop, so things may be different if you choose somebody else.... It's basically you and...maybe less than 20 people, depending on which artist you choose, and they talk about the music industry (kinda like a lecture, but cooler). You all get to talk with them, ask them questions, and at the end you get a group picture. You won't really get one-on-one time, because these guys are busy, they probably have a lot of other stuff to do. But don't do it because you want to meet the people, do it because you want to be in the music industry one day

You'll have a lot of fun with these guys, if you end up doing it. They're super funny and they teach you things that they wished they knew while starting out in the music industry. They also are really nice, and they make sure you guys are ok (like my friend and I were sitting in the sun, not under the tent, and Matty had everyone scoot over as much as possible so we could fit under). Have fun! and learn a lot!

I also saw Rosedale while waiting to get into Warped, and they were really good!

If you're going to warped, make sure you drink LOTS of water and reapply sunscreen every couple hours. Also have a good meeting place to meet up with friends after a set, especially if you get separated. And if you're uncomfortable with mosh pits, do not go up to the barricade. You will get pushed around. I'm not sure if ts like this for all bands, but it definitely was like that for Sleeping With Sirens. If you are uncomfortable in the pit and want to get out, do so. There are so many amazing people in the crowd at warped that will let you out.
