Teeny Boppers Bad, Vandals Good

K guyssss. I've never attended Warped Tour mostly cos lately at least the bands all have had names like "I Scare Pretty Girls & Aminals Yes I Do" or "Kill Pretty Ugly Die Die La La" or something. You know.

And I mean, also, the kids who go to these things. Go here to see them. I dare you. Witness one amazing comment on the message board:

can't fckin' wait to be there with the krew.......we're gonna get DRUNK!!!! any babes that want too are welcome join us.............

Listen, myspace-teeny-bopper. Stop with the multiple periods, spell out "fucking," and stop pretending to be awesome. You're like twelve. You're mom's gonna drop you off at the show.

See? Why would you want to go to this? (besides the opportunity to accidently-oops-kinda hurt one o' them teeny-boppers. I think I have unchanneled aggression. Frankly, I blame the patriarchal society I live in.)

Hold on-

Are The Vandals worth teeny-boppers in Vans with bad dye jobs and bandannas around their wrist who think they're "drunk"? Hmmmm.

Not sure yet if I'll be in LA though, so looking into that. . . Regardless, rest of line-up is ho-hum-ew. Pennywise wouldn't be bad, but haven't listened to them in years. . . My friend knows one of the people in the Matches, but I'm not a huge fan. . . Apparently the Briefs were on the line-up, but no longer. I haven't heard of most of these bands. Not too bummed about that. . . but we'll see.
