That's what I thought, but when I looked at the venues for this it looked like it was indoors... I'm confused, I've never done Warped before.

My friend explained the Columbia venue to me like this:
"While they are held at seated venues, Warped Tour usually like...expands the whole area of where you are. At Columbia, the ampitheatre holds two smaller stages, divided in the middle. SEE BLURRY PICTURE! (http://i227.photobucket.com/albums/dd175...C06027.jpg ) They rotate, so as one band is playing on one stage, another is setting up on the other side.
But, if you take a short walk to the right of the ampitheatre, and follow the massive crowds, that takes you to another smaller stage, and the two main stages, left & right. I doubt Vamps will be playing on those, they'll probably be in the ampitheatre stages, so you really dont have to worry. Oreskaband played one of those stages last year."

OMG seats! finally, lol. We should meet there! I'm as new to warped tours as you are TOT

We should all try to have a place to meet. I've never been to the Warped Tour either and I would hate to get their and miss the whole thing because I get lost in the crowds!

Agree!

I think midday would be a good time to arrive, there are many bands and I doubt people that are inside the amphitheater at 11 am will stay in the same place until 10 pm.

So midday would be a nice hour for us to meet, get to know each other and then stroll around and meet again around 4-6 pm or something depending on when Vamps is playing. I don't want to be hit by a metal-punk-ska-whatever band crowd for 4 hours while waiting for vamps and I don't think they will all want to stay there after their favorite bands play (they have to drink-eat and stuff).

There's also a mall across the street. Does anyone know if they allow re-entrance to the venue? maybe with bracelets?
