Vans Warped Tour Was The Best Day Of My Year

I could not have asked for a better day.

Vans Warped Tour Was The Best Day Of My Year
Abigail Lynn

A couple weeks ago I wrote 10 Tips and Tricks Your Inner 'Emo Kid' Needs to Survive Warped Tour while waiting in excitement for it to actually happen. Well, this past week my 13 year old dream finally came true! I WENT TO VANS WARPED TOUR! Honestly, I can say It's been the best day of my year so far; and will be an amazing memory for years to come.

The day was amazing and started off great. My friend and I were literally the first people in the lot. We arrived when tour busses were still pulling into the venue. The stages hadn't even been made when we got there. It was just extremely surreal.

When the venue finally opened the day got a little rough. There were some storms in the air so the people there were all forced into the amphitheater while we waited out the storm. Luckily it passed relatively quickly and there weren't a lot of delays in the shows.

My friends and I had the day set with a list of "Must See"s. The list went: Attila, Carnifex, Dance Gavin Dance, Neck Deep, Memphis May Fire, and Watsky. We didn't stick around to see Attila or Carnifex (the heat was too much) but the people we met and the bands we got to see were amazing.

Now, I don't want to go moment-by-moment (That's a lie. I want to, but that'd be a REALLY long read) so I'll give you the highlights.

I got to meet Watsky! My boyfriend loves Watsky so much, and thanks to him I've gotten into the rapper myself. That was honestly one of the best moments for me: to see the person I love get to meet someone who has influenced him in such a positive way.


I also got to meet Fronz, the lead vocalist of Attila. Oh man the my poor Fangirl Heart died in that moment. It was so just... AUGH! I have no words. I've been listening to Attila for years and never once did I think I would meet him.


Every band we saw was amazing. The day turned out to be the highlight of my summer. I couldn't have asked for anything better.

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
