Warped Tour Will Not Institute That New Age Restriction
Update (9/3): Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman went on the Gunz Show to confirm that the traveling fest will continue to be all ages. He told the radio host:
"It was the last day of tour. I had just delt with some stuff, and this kid—sweet kid—had already written half of [his] story, he was just looking for a couple quotes to insert into it. And I said, ‘Man, I’m just gonna bring adults next summer out on tour. It would make my life a lot easier, in a sense.’ [Laughs.] And all of a sudden they inserted and added ‘under 21 is not gonna be allowed at Warped.’ Are you crazy?"
He went on in more detail:
"Warped has been about turning people on to music; getting them into festivals, getting them into a lifestyle that I think is [still] very, very good. The good doesn’t get highlighted like it should because we don’t run around and tout it. This music is good for people. [And] yes, it has saved people’s lives.”
