the offical warped tour details post.

okay so it all started with me having to wake up at five in the morning, which is all good because i had an absolutely captivating day ahead of me. we left my house around six and had to drive four hours to get to the virginia beach ampitheathre. so we got there ten-ish. i was so freaking nervous so i called hayley and was like "where are you, dude?"and i get the most crude comment back "you can stand on your own two feet for five second!"...yeah, pissed me off A LOT! but anyways, i finally met up with hayley, lindsey, and laura. we were just chillin' in line and listening to some new bands music when hayley informs us that her friend can get us to the front of the line, so of course we got in the very front and got in pretty early. we checked out the times from which bands we wanted to see and then headed straight for the academy is. but first, me and hayley saw the madina lake tent...and freaked out. hahaha. but we went to go see the academy is, and it was AMAZING! i offically love william beckett. they played an outrageous show that left me soaking in sweat. blah. after them, we camped out in front of the madina lake tent because their meet&greet was at one. so we waited an hour to meet them. and dude, THE BEST THING TO EVER HAPPEN TO MEGAN SENTER. I gave matthew a backwards hug :) and dan, nathan, and matthew signed my shirt. they all also said "we love your shirt!". thanks to hayley, i got a picture with nathan and matthew! it was hypotizing...the next hour after that i was in lalaland. fo shiz. i'm pretty sure after that, we went to find the smartpunk stage...as hayley said it should be renamed the gaypunk stage. cos we all got stuck in this gay hardcore pit. SCARY AS MESS! circle pits everywhere, dudes smoking pot, and bottles being thrown everywhere. little hayley stuck out right as it started and left me and lindsey to fend for ourselves. thanks to lindsey's backpack...i survived. dude, i never want to be in a hardcore pit again! after almost dying, we went to see the tailend of forever the sickest kids. they were pretty beast even though i'm not familiar with very many of their songs. after that we ran to see mayday parade...they were okay. but i was pretty much dying of thirst while they were playing. but we ran over because we heard "hey mister dj..." cos cobra was playing! i loved them a lot. travis from gch and beckett were their during snakes on a plane. they also played an amazing set. then we were REALLY tired. so we all got drinks and sat in the ampitheathre and waited for madina! so hayley had the great idea of getting down in the pit early so we could get barricade...in which we did :) we stood there for like an half an hour listening to this decent reggae band, but as they were playing we could see mateo, dan, and matthew setting up for there set. i was like not breathing. then they all walked out on stage, and started to play adalia! i was jumping all over the place, while mantaining my place at the barricade. adalia was friggen amazing, it made me love that song ten thousand times more! then nathan decided to come down into the audience, i got to touch his hairy knee :) but then i reached my hand out and mateo reached down and touched ONLY MY HAND. ask hayley. he touched only my hand, and then i of course like screamed because i have a huge crush on mateo! but then all the fun, got put on hold because of GAY CROWD SURFERS! I HATE THEM! poor little hayley got kicked in the eye, and now has a blue bruise on her eyebrow! i got kicked and fallen on...i was getting hella sick of it. hayley was done...so she ran out of there. i was gonna stay up there for a little bit longer until a full can of some kind of liquid bashed into the back of my neck. i was out of there after that. i was sick of me pushed around! in the process of leaving i missed one of my favorite songs "me vs the world" but got to hayley in time to hear stars. STARTS WAS SOOOOOO GOOD! I was never standing still that whole song! me and hayley were just jumping around for the rest of their amazing set. regardless of all the kicking, IT WAS THE MOST AMAZING SHOW THAT I HAVE EVER BEEN TO. i swear! but i feel bad for poor lindsey she got really sick during madina. :( but then we all sat down and me and hayley just talked about how amazing that show was. but then we wanted to go see gym class heroes! we saw like three songs by them and then left because their were people smoking weed right behind us...and it was giving us all a headache. if you smoke pot, your gross to me. but we did get to see clothes off! yeah, after that we were friggen tired! so we got drinks and just chilled in the ampitheathre and listened to every avenue...they were alright. and then the beginning of katy perry :) i was so excited to see katy perry until my mom texted me saying she was there, and i had to go. so i didn't even get to hear i kissed a girl! but it's all good. btw, she is the cutest person on the face of the planet. so i said my goodbyes and gave my hugs and headed to me madre's car. as soon as i got inside i realized that i got REALLY sunburnt. i have a shirt burn. my face, neck, and arms are burnt! i look like a lobster! but we got to the hotel and i could NOT sleep. i stayed up until like one just thinking about my day and i realized that it was the best day of my life. i'm thinking i'm going to go to warped every year from now on. it was seriously sooooo much fun. now i'm really really really tired and i should be sleeping right now. i'mma go get some rest. update tomorrow.
