 everal years ago, I tutored a kid; let's call him Tim. For the third time, he was trying to pass the 9th grade. It wasn't going well. Before the summer school final exam he broke a study appointment. 'Tim, what's wrong with you? This is important,' I scolded. He responded, 'yeah, I know, but I have Warped Tour tickets.'
In the intervening years, Tim eventually found his way onto a set of decks. His DJ career is going well. I ran into him a few weeks ago. He looked like a Klaxon. 'Got Warped tickets?' I queried. 'Man, I'm not 15 anymore.'
Cobra Starship, Angels and Airwaves, Pennywise, Against Me! and many, many others play this year's sometimes-punk fest. -S.T.
Tickets are $41.75 @ Ticketmaster or 416-870-8000
