Authors Note: Warped Tour

Sorry not an update! On Saturday July 12th I went to Warped Tour and it was my first time at Warped. Honestly I went to see The Ready Set because I love Jordan sfm but I also wanted to see We The Kings, Falling In Reverse, Of Mice & Men, Breathe Carolina, and Ice Nine Kills. Anyways when I first got there I waited almost an hour to get in so I got in at 11:45 and We The Kings started at 12 so my friends and I were rushing there and I bumped into Sydney the lead singer of Echosmith and I didn't realize it was her at first and she only had 3 people talking to her but my friends pulled me away so I didn't meet her :( But We The Kings were really good so right after we went to go see The Ready Set and we waited there for like a half hour for it to start so we were so close to the stage it's crazy. The Ready Set was so good like the best band I've seen live and oh my god I'm in love bye. So right after we ran to The Ready Sets merch tent area for the Meet and Greet and my two friends went to go get water so I started talking to these 3 girls who were in front of me and behind me. So we waited like half hour which wasn't bad at all and we wanted to take a picture with this guy Ryan cause he like takes pictures and films TRS and stuff plus he was cute but he left before we could. But I talked to Jordan's girlfriend and asked if it was just Jordan or the whole band because I really wanted to meet Mike Naran but it was just Jordan so I was really upset. But anyways Jordan is s fricking adorable and nice. I gave him a note to give to mike since he wasn't there, I drew a picture for his new album which he told he was amazing and I gave him a ring pop because I was gonna propose to him with it but I chickened out and he was really excited and was like awe thank you I haven't had one of these in forever, the ring pop matched his shirt and I pointed it out and he thought it was really funny so in a video he was wearing the same shirt and he's like when I wear this shirt I feel like I'm flying on an eagles wings so I was like look the ring pop matches your shirt and its like flying on an eagles wings and when I said that he got so excited like he started laughing and was like oh my gosh yes like flying on an eagles wings. So I got him to sign a poster I bought for $5 and he signed his name and put a "!" After it so we took a super cute picture and he had his arm around my back and I love him moving on. So then we had to find my friends sister and we looked for her for an hour and a half and during that time my really good friend Becky met Ronnie Radke and was trying to text me to come down where she was so I could meet him plus Jordan was walking around over there and I really wanted to go but I couldn't, then later while we were still trying to find her sister someone jumped on me hugging me and it ended up being Becky but she gave me a stroke. Finally we found her sister and ate then we went to Breathe Carolina and got really close and they opened a circle pit behind me so this guy like stood there with his arm behind me so nobody ran into me or pulled me in which was super nice of him. Later on I got kicked in the head three times by crowd surfers then Tommy and David of BC were raft surfing and the crowd dropped Tommy on my head and he ended up punching me in the head so after that I don't know why but my eyes were watering really bad and I couldn't see for an hour and a half so I had to go to the medical station. I ended up missing Of Mice & Men because I couldn't see and couldn't form coherent sentences and for 10 minutes I was trying to convince my friend that I was Mike Naran. When I got a little better we went and listened to Quicksand by The Story So Far but my friend left cause her legs hurt so my friend Heather and I walked around to try and find Mike because l wouldn't shut up about meeting him. Finally I decide we should go to TRS merch tent and ask for Mikes EP cause I wanted it really bad. So the girl Ellie was super nice and wanted to call mike so he can bring some cause they had none but her phone was dead so she paged someone on the radio and it ended up being Ryan so we took a picture with Ryan and then Ryan called someone and was like talking to them and when he got off the phone he was like Mike is coming to meet you guys with his EP so we stood there talking to Ryan and he was really funny and Tommy from BC walked passed and I told Ryan and Ellie what happened so Ryan kinda gave him a look like ew and Ryan felt really bad for me cause I still had ice on my face. So I was like I feel like my eyes are gonna look stupid in every picture and Ryan was like no your eyes look fine meanwhile they didn't. Mike came down and got bombarded by people and I felt really bad. When i asked him if he recognized me at first he wasnt sure but i showed him my twitter and he was like oh yeah ive seen youre name a bunch of times but he took a picture with me and he ended up giving Heather and I the EPs for free and signing them and he was SOOO NICE! So then we had to leave and I missed Falling in Reverse and Issues. But I met Jordan and Mike and Ryan so all in all Warped Tour was AMAZING and my friend Becky invited me to go with her next year and made me promise id go with her so I'm going with her next year. But I also met this band at Warped called 7 Minutes in Heaven and I'm going to see them next month with Becky and maybe Heather. Warped Tour was absolutely amazing and I'm gonna start going every year and I might have a concussion from Breathe Carolina! Update: I did have a concussion, this was almost a year ago but I never actually filled you in
