Warped Tour arrived in Portland, Oregon on June 16th, 2013.
Here are a few clips of just a few of the artists that played. I tried to film a bit of every band that I watched, unfortunately, it did not turn out that way. There are plenty more incredible musicians that were out there that day, this is just a few.
THESE ARE BY NO MEANS GOOD QUALITY VIDEOS!
For The Foxes: (0:00) The first band I stopped by to see. Definitely recommend checking them out. They were a great start to the day.
Shy Kidx: (1:01) If you feel like dancing or changing up your flow of music, check out Shy Kidx! Definitely a fun breather from all that rock and metal.
Woe, Is Me: (2:14) This band draws in a pretty big crowd. If you want to see them perform up close and personal, get there early!
We Came As Romans: (3:17) This video is not so great because this band also drew a large crowd and it was difficult to see what I was filming. A fun band to just jump into the crowd and go crazy with.
Middle Finger Salute: (4:46) Or as they introduced themselves to my friends and I, 'a bunch of English wankers.' These guys are great! Stop by their set or their tent for a good time.
Sleeping With Sirens: (7:00) This is the worst video I've ever seen and I don't know why I even put it in here. SWS brings in TONS of people. If you want to watch them, get there really early for a good view. I was quite far away and it was impossible to tell what I was filming. Which is why I'm filming heads for most of the video. HOWEVER, as you might be able to tell from the audio, SWS sounds incredible live. It's almost as if they're just playing their records over a stereo. Check these guys out!
Black Veil Brides: (8:02) This was the second time I've seen Black Veil Brides. Both times on Warped Tour. They were incredible the first time and they raised the bar even higher the second time around. Again, HUGE crowd. Arrive early for a good view. Either way, you can definitely have a fun time seeing these guys doing what they do best.
I See Stars: (10:35) Let me tell you, I was not planning on seeing I See Stars at all. I saw their name on the lineup and didn't care. I'd seen them on tour 8 months prior and I didn't care for their music or performance. However, I was checking out the Monster Energy stage and they happened to be playing. I couldn't deny that they were out there absolutely killing it. I recommend checking these dudes out simply because I went in not caring about them at all and they completely won me over in a matter of seconds.
Motion City Soundtrack: (11:42) Great band. Great music. Great performance. They sound impeccable live. This was one band that I had a really fun time seeing. I was a good distance from the stage, but that didn't matter because they sounded perfect. Belting the lyrics at the top of your lungs along with the rest of the crowd makes for a good time. Definitely consider stopping by these guys at least for a couple songs.
The Exposed: (13:16) I stumbled upon these guys while waiting for Crown The Empire's set. If you want to keep Punk Rock alive and on Warped Tour, then you need to come out and make some noise for these dudes. As you can tell from the video, they are just an absolute good time.
Attila: (14:32) Jesus, what do I even say about Attila? I had heard Attila before and I wasn't too big of a fan. But seeing them live completely changed my mind. When the set ends, you'll be begging for more. They kill it and have one of the rowdiest crowds of the day. They bring in a pretty large crowd so if you want a good view, show up early! Trust me, this is not a band you want to miss. AND despite their vulgarity, they are really cool dudes. So stop by their tent, pick up some merch, and go to their signing!
Memphis May Fire: (15:30) To be completely honest, I forgot about their set. They were a band that I really wanted to see too. I was walking past and saw them playing which made me curse myself for forgetting their set time. I got as close as I could, but it was difficult considering a ton of fans had already gathered. I managed to catch one of my favorite songs by them. This is another band that sounds impeccable live. If you like them on record, you'll love them live. So check these dudes out!
