So it was the first Warped Tour experience today for yours truly, sweetdisaster dot com's Big Cheese, and it was pretty sick. Bands seen by your favourite 'zine hack included Bleed the Dream, Strung Out, The Dillinger Escape Plan, MxPx, Mae, Thrice and a bunch more. Take note, kids: the new album from Thrice, judging by the new material displayed tonight, will crush everything. They have grown as songwriters since 2003's The Artist In The Ambulance, and it shows mightily.

Offspring also played. Missed them. We did hear the sweet strains of 'Self Esteem' towards the end though. Ah, 1994.

That's it. For now. We're tired here. SOME of us worked all night and THEN went to Warped.
