Being on the Vans Warped Tour is something that we, along with most other up and coming bands, have been aiming for since the beginning.

So when we were confirmed for the 2010 Tour, it was almost surreal and hard to grasp until we finally set off from Lexington Kentucky to start our four day journey towards Los Angeles California, and what would be the first day of our very first Warped Tour experience. We will be updating this blog all summer on Rock Sound for everyone to follow along.

Today we are in Phoenix, AZ. The fourth show in! The nerves have all settled and we've gotten into a routine. So far the crowds and shows have been larger than we were expecting. Fans have been coming out of nowhere and surrounding the stage moments before we go on, it's been awesome.

In Phoenix we battled a new enemy, instead of nerves and excitement we were face to face with the Sun and his insane heat! This day was hot and I mean, one of, if not the hottest shows we've ever played. We had to pace ourselves but we didn't let the heat win and affect the show. Kids still came to have (sweaty) fun and that’s exactly what we did.

More next time...
