I can't believe this is the final weekend of the 2012 Vans Warped Tour-- the summer really seemed to




In today's pit blog we catch sets from We The Kings, Four Year Strong, Mansions, Miss May I, and New Found Glory. We also stop by the Monster Energy Drink lounge and the Peace Tea tents for a refreshing drink during our stop in WA. More after the jump!
I can't believe this is the final weekend of the 2012 Vans Warped Tour-- hotels casinos las vegas the summer really seemed to fly by! After having 2 days off on our drive from Wisconsin to Washington, everyone was nice and refreshed for Day 40 at the White River Amphitheater! Since we only have two shows left, I had my work cut out for me to cover both main stages one last time. I started my day off over on the Kia Soul stage for We The Kings! Early morning sets are always hit or miss, but I couldn't believe how many people were already packed in front of the barricade, singing and dancing to their hit "Check Yes Juliet." The weather ended up being surprisingly warm for the Northwest corner, so I swung by the Monster Energy Lounge to pick up a refreshing energy drink from the always hotels casinos las vegas entertaining Monster crew. The Monster Energy Lounge has been a great place to cool down and get rehydrated at Warped this summer! I hopped off the truck, I made my over to the Acoustic Basement, but ran into a signing with Vampires Everywhere! first! It's always fun to see those guys! When I finally made it under the big white tent for some acoustic sessions I was so stoked to hear that Mansions was about to play. I've been a huge fan of this band for some time and it was great to hear one of my favorite songs, "Talk Talk Talk" live! Back on the Kia Soul mainstage, it was time for Four Year Strong. I hadn't had much of a chance to see them since the Boston show, and I swear their beards must have grown at least twice in size! These guys always put on a great set! Oh and make sure you watch out for lead singer, Alan Day as he really hotels casinos las vegas enjoys jumping into the barricade! On my way to the amphitheater, I swung by the Peace Tea tent. I've been seeing these giant cans all tour and it was time to finally sample their deliciousness! Feeling refreshed, I hopped in the pit at the Kia Rio mainstage for Miss May I. The ampitheater was packed with metal-heads ready to tear it up Levi Benton, and let me tell you, they most certainly did just that. Hair whips, screams, and moshing to the max went down for Miss May I's set. Talk about intense! Returning to the Kia Soul stage outside, it was time to finish off the day with New Found Glory and their endless amounts of high energy. It's been a real treat seeing these guys all summer in their colorful band jerseys-- I only wish they had a basketball hoop and trampoline on stage! How funny would that have been?? Anyway, see it all go down in the video above!
