Mayday Parade's Guide to Warped Tour
At this point, Mayday Parade are Warped Tour veterans. They're not, say, NOFX or Less Than Jake, but they've been around the block a few times. Starting as fans and show-goers before following the tour in 2006 and playing the following year, the band effectively grew up on Warped. Since 2008, Mayday have played every other Warped and this year—during the fest's 20 year anniversary—they're playing the main stage for the first time ever. It's exhausting just to think about!
But who better to tell Warped like it is? We caught up with Mayday frontman Derek Sanders to get the inside scoop on the importance of Warped, how to navigate the festival as a novice, what bands to catch and more! Here's what he had to say:
