Have you ever gone to a music festival and wondered how do they manage to get all of these great artist in one place? How do they choose the right artist to perform? or even choosing where to hold the event(State, City, Venue)? Well we have and now when it comes to Van's Warped Tour we just let it go because every year the line up, the production, the staff, the security blows us away. With this year being the LAST cross country run we decided to attend both Ohio dates(Cleveland and Cincy) and I am so glad we did.
The staff did an amazing job they kept everything nice and friendly and all around had an amazing time themselves by joining in on the fun. I grew up on warped tour and I'm so glad that my kids had the chance to experience this amazing music festival because this is one event where everyone feels like family because we are all there for the same reason and that is to support the artist and have a great time weather you are a vet or new to Warped there is always a friendly face.
After giving that run down I do want to shine some light on these very talented artist that I was completely blown away by. OK here we go! there are people that will pay hundreds of dollars just to see their favorite artist for a quick hi, take a picture and get an already signed poster and that is totally OK because the artist is busy with putting on the shows and making the music that makes us love them and they have a lot of fans to meet.
Over the 2 days we spent at warped tour I observed artist running their own merch table, walking around with the fans and watching other bands sets, and doing their own meet and greets. The ONLY thing they asked for in return was your support.
The bands we had the pleasure and honor of speaking with showed the fans so much respect and treated us more like family/friends instead of fans. They also did not come off as they were better then the fans and they genuinely thanked the fans for their support during their set, at their merch table and even at the meet and greets.
This is something that the bands wanted to do for their fans. They did not have to spend their FREE time with us but they did out of pure kindness and appreciation and we respect them for that.
With so many bands you do not get to see a full set HOWEVER the 25-30 minutes that they do have they put on the best shows. We have seen a lot of these bands like Broadside, Sleep On It, State Champs, Waterparks, We The Kings, Falling In Reverse and many more multiple times because let's face it they are amazing and fun to watch. Then you have the staples of warped tour who has been there since the beginning like Bowling For Soup, All Time Low, Simple Plan and Reel Big Fish. This is a music festival that we will look back and reflect on for many years to come.
Thank you to the artist for rocking out with the fans during the last cross country run of Warped Tour and for making all of the fans feel very welcome. We will be forever grateful for all that you do for your fans and for the great causes that Van's Warped Tour shines light on every year.
