If you are at all into heavy metal pop-punk, reggae or any obscure/emo genre in between, consider Warped Tour your official induction into "the scene". This is not a day to take yourself at all seriously. Take advantage of the opportunity to get sweaty, get rowdy and sing off key at the top of your lungs off key and unapologetically. You may also get a chance to meet the artists who wrote all those songs you keep on repeat (this girl did!)
See your favorite bands, and go home with a few new obsessions.
This year was my Warped maiden voyage and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The set list was perfection, the energy was off the charts, I would knock off a star because it was unbelievably hot and sweaty, but hey, if you're not ready to get gross with a few strangers/ new best friends, you're not a true concert-crawler!
