Warped Tour less a concert than a lesson in survival

​Either yesterday’s Vans Warped Tour 2010 was really as awful as it felt, or I’ve become a cranky old man who just can’t handle a little warm weather. Still — holy shit, kids. You don’t know misery until you try and breathe and realize the air you’re trying to take in is getting superheated by the blacktop beneath your feet — the blacktop, by the way, that you shouldn’t stand on for too long unless you want to feel the soles of your sneakers begin to soften.
