The trump of all "what the shit?" Warped Tours is when Katy Perry played in.......08? Because she was humping the singer from Gym Class Heroes at the time.

Best Coast, Wavves, and Against Me! are all playing. wondering if there will be any other crossover. HEALTH, Portugal. The Man and Titus Andronicus on Friday, that would be sweet. The Hood Internet in the dance tent would also be sweet.

Big Chocolate playing Warped Tour?? Wtf!

I don't know how they do it but that festival continues to get worse year after year.

Seriously. Last year there were a couple bands I was willing to sit through all the shit for. (Andrew W.K., Agent Orange, Reel Big Fish) but this year there's hardly anything I would really want to see.

I'm still probably gonna go though just because all my friends go and it's still alot of fun

quite a few bands just got added to the full summer schedule, check it out

I'm hovering on the Lolla website because they're mentioning this Secret Sale in which tickets are $60/person and they're not announcing when those go on sale.

I can't even tell you how many times I've refreshed the damn page.

Anyone know anything about it/when they released that last year?

Posted by LumpSquatch on Mar 29, 2011, 4:49pm

If you hear anything about this, let me know, if it's only $60 it might be worth going to, though I'm still leaning towards Pitchfork Chicago-wise.

I'm a little late to this, but there is some insider knowledge on when the secret sale is, because each year, many of the regulars on the Lolla board end up getting them, and I don't think it is because they keep hitting refresh. I remember a bunch of regulars were posting the top secret info one year, and all the others regulars got pissed because it would lower their chances of getting them, so everyone had to delete their posts. Those tickets usually sell out in seconds.

It's pretty annoying though, it gives many regulars an excuse to brag about getting them whenever people talk about how bad the lineup is. "I would pay $30 to see Band A, and $30 to see Band B, so I totally think the lineup is worth the $60 I paid," and, "really, $20 a day is totally affordable, I can't believe you aren't going."

that is really dumb.

Lolla's early bird tix went on sale this morning and are already sold out. goodness gracious.

There's something in the water, methinks. Tickets everywhere are selling out wayyy too fast this year.
