SUNDAY, JULY 20
CANTERBURY PARK
Vans Warped Tour

We covered Vans Warped Tour last year and we were only able to cover about seven bands (one stage)... which is pretty sad, because there are hundreds of bands on the lineup. If you are attending this year's show, taking place this July 20th, you'll just have to pick and choose your battle and have fun watching as many bands as possible.

My personal picks are Saves the Day, Anberlin (their last tour before they break up!), Yellowcard, and Sleeper Agent.

Here are just some of the bands playing this year:

Mayday Parade, Beartooth, Air Dubai, For Today, The Mixtapes, Stray From The Path, Teenage Bottlerocket, Plague Vendor, Tear Out The Heart, The Protomen, Attila, Saves The Day, A Skylit Drive, The Ghost Inside, The Ready Set, The Devil Wears Prada, The Color Morale, Nit Grit, Chunk! No, Captain Chunk!, Anberlin, Survive This!, Cute Is What We Aim For, Issues, Crown The Empire, State Champs, The Maine, Volumes, Enter Shikari, I The Mighty, Alive Like Me, Secrets, MC Chris, Terror, Breathe Carolina, Falling In Reverse, I Fight Dragons, This Wild Life, Courage My Love, Bad Rabbits, Real Friends, To The Wind, Ice Nine Kills, Every Time I Die, Scare Don't Fear, Of Mice & Men, Yellowcard, Bayside, Four Year Strong, Crizzly, Antiserum, K.Flay, Marmozets, Brian Marquis, Lionize, Echosmith, Sleeper Agent, The Word Alive, Beebs And Her Money Makers, Rob Lynch
