When I heard about the old-school stage at the Warped Tour, and saw the line-up for the last day of the tour, I made plans to get to LA to see some great bands and say hello to some old friends. It was fun. I got burnt to a crisp, the day went by really quickly which meant we didn’t get to see nearly as many bands as we’d hoped, but the fine folks at Goldenvoice hooked me up with a pair of VIP wristbands and Marina managed to snap a few pics, so for those of you that couldn’t make it, here’s a few of her favorites… starting with some random shots:

THE DICKIES
We of course got to see lots of other bands…
We Are Kings, The Action Design, Gym Class Heroes, Street Dogs, etc…
but we just didn’t get any good pictures of those bands, sorry.
Warped Tour is always a massive, crazy day, but it was a good time for an old fart like me.
Sadly it hasn’t been to Hawaii in a very long time and will likely never return,
so next summer, if you like the line-up, take a trip to the West Coast!!
