Oh man, it's that time again when Warped Tour is on the horizon, and once more the chance for a lucky local band to nab a chance in the spotlight is upon us. This time around, four different bands will be playing in a good ol' fashioned battle of the bands- Haunted War, Buzzbox, Cali Conscious Blue Moon Collision and Animal Family. No matter who you're rooting for, there's always the promise of seeing a good show- and maybe discover a new band to like- but you'll never know unless you make it out to The Slidebar tonight and support your faves. And with five awesome bands like these playing tonight, good vibes, and plenty of drinks at the bar, it's not a bad way to spend your Cinco de Mayo.
