With the recent plane crash that happened killing a few people in California, I wanted to post this here, one of those killed was the drummer of the devil wears Prada at one point and I met them back in 2014 when they were on warped tour. This was a page out of the warped tour program that I had them sign back then. Rip to all that died in the crash.

This 2009 Warped Tour ticket is a true piece of pop-punk history.

That year had an absolutely stacked lineup—bands like A Day to Remember, NeverShoutNever!, Underoath, Black Tide, Escape the Fate, The Maine, Alexisonfire, Anti-Flag, and Bad Religion were all part of the tour. It was one of the last years before Warped started shifting away from its punk and hardcore roots into more metalcore and electronic influences.

• This was my First Warped Tour, and I attended every year up until 2018 when it "ended."

• There was a 25th anniversary show in 2019 (3 stops), which I attended in Atlantic City, NJ.

• There is NOW a 30th anniversary tour (3 stops), where I will be attending the Washington D.C. stop this summer.

• This ticket was signed by Chris Barker, Chris Head, and Pat Thetic. Justin Sane was always questionable, so I did not have him autograph the ticket. Feel free to research why 😂.

This tour was my entire life, possibly the most important influence on my persona/character. I bought this ticket for 25 dollars from a friend, and begged my motto let me go (in that order). We were driven to the tour in limousine bus, and it set the tone for many years afterwards.

I would give ANYTHING to feel that day again. This Ticket, professionally encapsulated by Beckett Collectibles will (hopefully) be buried with me.
