Tonight the Glass House will be hosting the Warped Tour Pre-Party with Gallows and Big D And The Kids Table. For those of you who just absolutely cannot wait, the show will be just a teeny taste of one of the years most anticipated tours. Both bands playing tonight will be with the Tour during the majority of its duration.
Kicking off tomorrow at the Pomona Fairgrounds, the Warped Tour will make a big ass circle around the country (and select cities in Canada) before finishing back in So Cal a

Better than: Spending all night watching VH1 Classic — though hey, that's a pretty close second right there.
Download: "Deny Everything."
Sometimes you just gotta wonder — where's the real show happening? Some bands are so attention-engrossing, you can't believe that you're simultaneously sharing that seemingly personal experience with a few thousand others. Other acts are such a coma-

Most people wouldn’t look forward to driving 30 minutes in a complete downpour to see a show they were only counting on being half interested in. Especially if they found out upon arrival that the camera lens they were supposed to be shooting the bands with was

Since February 29, the elder statesmen of Los Angeles punk have embarked on a blistering "World Tour of Southern California" packing in sweaty, fanatical fans night after night. Los Angeles, San Diego and Vegas HOB's have also been in on the action.

Let's face it, good local punk bands are hard to come by these days. Seldom does one find the kind of balls-out, hundred-mile-an-hour fury that fuels sweaty mosh pits and unshakable spiky-haired camaraderie on a consistent basis. And behind the Orange curtain, this is an especially harsh reality. That is, until you step onto the concert floor of a Wastey face show. Raised on a steady diet of NOFX, Penny Wise and Black Flag, this five-pack of volitile, wise-ass Huntington Beach punks have managed
For the third straight year, the Vans Warped Tour--46 dates in 2009-will be kicking off at the Pomona Fairplex, this time on June 26. Pre-sales for tickets start April 1 (not a prank), with the "regular" on-sale date being April 18. They've also announced the list of bands performing, though we don't yet know who's performing at what date yet. Names include: Newport Beach's Saosin (pictured), Huntington Beach's The Dirty Heads, Fullerton punk vets D.I. and Thrice, from Irvine, natch. And if you'
Oh yes. For the third year in a row, the Vans Warped Tour is kicking off at the Pomona Fairplex (in, uh, Pomona). It's also the 15th anniversary of the Warped Tour!
