Re: Death At Warped Tour

Warped Tour is a tour for many bands. Sum 41 didn't perform, but the others did.sum4ever1 wrote:WHAT? didn't they cancel that show?

Re: Death At Warped Tour
damn, well I know I got weak and dizzy from not eating. One woman passed out at the show I was at. I hope this incident wasn't a form of violence or something

Re: Death At Warped Tour
http://dyingscene.com/news/kansas-city- ... p-scandal/It is with great regret and a heavy heart that we report to you a young fan has passed away while attending the Kansas City leg of the 2010 Warped Tour. The official cause of death is still unknown, however there are rumors of dehydration leading to the incident. Many Warped Tour festivals take place outside, where fans endure midday summer heat to see their favorite acts. I’ve noticed first-hand that many venues exploit this situation by gauging prices on anything from a damn band schedule, to a sandwich or bag of chips, to the necessary bottle of water.
Is $10 too much to charge for a bottle of water?
The festival grounds that hosted the Kansas City leg apparently didn’t think so. Bridge Nine Records confirmed that fans were being charged $10 for bottled water, while temperatures neared 100 F degrees. I understand, hydration is a personal responsibility, and that their are sinks with potable water in the restrooms, but when does the venue realize that their price-gauging is unnecessary and could be detrimental to festival attendees. How much money do they honestly think they can get from us before the show ends? It is absolutely appalling and unethical.
I have been to festivals in Europe where large containers of water are strategically placed throughout the grounds, providing FREE access to drinking water for all fans. Why can this not happen in the capitalist-driven US? Hopefully, this tragic, unnecessary death of a fan will open their eyes to what their greed is actually costing them.

Right, simmer down the both of yous, if you want to have an argument then that's what PM or MSN is for. Stay on topic or just don't post.
Shame they died but $10 for a bottle of water is a fucking shock. Bunch of bawbags.

They should just lower the price of water so this doesn't happen.

Re: Death At Warped Tour
Yikes. I can totally see how dehydration could be a factor. I don't think I've ever been so sweaty in my life when I was on the floor at Blink-182. I haven't gone to many shows, so it was kind of a shock to me at how tired I got from having to be in the crowd of people. Not to mention I had bought two Blink shirts and I wore them both over my existing shirt I wore to the show. I had to take a break from Not Now to slam back a large iced tea.
