Warped Tour 2008

We’d be remiss not to mention Warped Tour’s 2008 lineup. After all, we do cover pretty much every other summer music festival. And while the sterotypical Warped Tour attendee may not fit the mold of a typical CoS reader, seeing 100 bands for $30 is still quite a deal.

Against Me!, Bouncing Souls, Angels & Airwaves, The Briggs, Street Dogs, and the Aggrolites are some of the bands we recommend checking out. Though you have to admit, this year’s lineup is much weaker than those of past years…

  1. Actually, this year really isn’t that bad.

    And recomending AVA? blah… there are many better bands on the tour. Like Jack’s Mannequin!

    and Plus, Pinker Tones! Warped has an electronica artist this year… strange. haha. But I’m glad it is them, they are one of the few electronica groups that can pull off playing 30 minutes sets in the middle of the day on a temporary stage.

  2. I agree. The lineup is not that bad, you’ve got a good mix of old and new. Kevin Lyman knows his stuff…..

  3. Against Me! has an official Kyte page now! Follow this badass Rock group who will be opening for Foo Fighters and be featured on the Warped Tour on their channel ! Stay tuned as these guys take us all over their venues, from the Warped Tour and beyond!! Rock ON!!!!

  4. Against Me! has an official Kyte page now! Follow this badass Rock group who will be opening for Foo Fighters and be featured on the Warped Tour on their channel !

  5. yeah i checked out their kyte stuff on their myspace page. If you are into this band, i highly recommend checking out their channel. It’s got some cool “backstage with the band” style footage on it.

  7. WTF?! Where is FOB? I like lots of the other bands but i really wanted to see Fall Out Boy….

  8. im too old for this festival now…and i’m 23

  9. we need
    Jeffree Star
    Mindless Self Indulgence
    Metro Station
    and more:P
    the line up isnt too bad though
    last years was better though.

  10. deff metro station!!! they are amazing=]=]

    and i agree…last year was WAYYYY better…

    parkway drive isnt going this year…im pretty upset about that

  11. Oreskaband are definitely worth checking out, they put more energy into their show than almost any other band.
