So the dirty heads first warped tour is done and over. As a band Coming in to this tour we did not know what to expect. Especially from the fans that come out. We didn't know if we would get boo'd have shit thrown at us, get hated on by other bands all that, we heard all sorts of shit about warped before we left, horror stories, amazing stories, good and bad from many of our friends that have done it before and I can officially say the whole experience was amazing. Yeah some of the drives sucked yeah we lived in the van for 2 months but over all this was one of the most fun rewarding tours we have been Involved in.The crowds were killer the bands we did meet from punk to hard core to hip hop were all insanely cool. and all the production people that ran the whole thing to the crews setting the stages up where the shit.
Its was nice to finish in cali where we had some of our best shows but the surprise was that we had shows that were just as crushing all over the US and in Canada. All in all I can't wait till next year to see if we do it again. The main reward was the fans we gained that had never seen us, and the dedication shown from the fans that we do have, from kids driving 15 hours to see us, to the all the Dirty heads coming out to help. It all really means so much to us as a band and as just human beings, to see that love first hand is why we do this. If you love our music and support us in any way your not just a number or a soundscan or itunes purchase, your a part of this band, just as much a member as anyone of us. We don't look at our fans like some of these other bands do, as dollar signs. so this thank you goes out to you all. Also a huge thanks to all our sponsors, if you got any gear this tour thats thanks to these awesome companies that support us and good music KATIN USA, SKULL CANDY, FOX, and HURLEY Thanks to the skull candy stage crew! Randy Simon, hollace, Angelo. The skull candy family, luke, spitzy, boland. Music saves lives crew, Jesse di and Brian. Production. And all the bands we met.

Duddys birthday pukesplosion



So the bar we came to for duddys bday in the middle of nowhere. Doesn't serve hard alcohol but its the only bar in town. So he wants to shoot beer glasses full of wine with beer chasers, and its his day so here we go. The wines coming from boxed wine so we are gonna just buy the boxes and do this awesome thing that I learned from my aussie friends, you take the bag out of the box wine and drink it all and when your done you blow it up and you use it as a pillow, they're called goon sacks. You might expect us to be having this huge warped tour party with a bunch of rad bands and "cool people" that we think we know, but sometimes the best times are out of the way places with only a couple of your best friends.



Happy birthday duddy you brilliant retard.

Alright so I fell off the whole writing a blog thing, sorry, so here's a recap of the last couple weeks. Played a shit load of shows most of em have been really really insane. Had a day off in Kansas and went out drinking with "there for I am" an insane hardcore band from Boston that we've became good friends with, woke up in the morning with a 150 dollar bar receipt in my pocket, with 16 shots of rumpelmints, 7 shots of jager, and 4 jack and cokes on it. Who the fuck drinks rumpelmints.... Really. Got into a slap battle with the guitar player who is much much bigger than me and got thrown into a bush. good night. We showed those Boston boys how to party. They all hated me the next day. Playing hung over is great. Denver was a highlight as always thanks to everyone who came out. The weather was nice all day then I watched it hail marble sized ice death balls on atleast 3000 kids during 3oh!3.

Canada is rad. Both shows were good but calgary was nuts! Definetly going back soon. Never played there befor and the show was huge.

Now I'm sitting in the tent in Washington at the gorge. Wich is one of the raddest venues I've ever seen. It over looks a mini grand canyon.

7 shows left, I'm just stoked to be back on the west coast. So let's make these last shows count. See you there.

Ohhhhhh man. Alright so its been a bit, sorry this tour is nuts. A lot of work and a lot of driving. And a lot of trying to catch up on sleep and not really being able to. I'm not sure what city I left off on...... Shit.... Im actually not sure what day it is. I do know we played Detroit yesterday and chi town today and have to say both were good but Chicago took it. And I know I have prob drank 500 coors lights in the last 3 days. I should be sponsored by coors light and baby wipes, no not for pooping, a full body baby wipe is pretty much your shower for the day. Atleast I got fresh clothes, I brought a lot I'm kind of a girl when it comes to gear. We have a 12 day run befor we have a day off to get a hotel and chill. But I feel super healthy I've been eating good. the catering is amazing. and other than the last couple hot days I have kept the partying to a Minimum, yeah even I need a break, don't worry if you wanna party I will still put you under the table. And have you sleeping with your shoes on.
Wanna say thanks to all the awesome kids or should I say our friends now. coming out and street teaming.

We have hit the half way point on the tour been gone for awhile. Im not home sick but I'm mad cause my brother is probably kicking my ass in gamer points and playing new games I can't on xbox 360. Fuck yeah I'm a gaming nerd. Eat a dick if you don't like it. And I heard the US open of surfing In hb. was 10 foot and perfect, one of the boys at home a local kid and friend named BRETT SIMPSON won the whole thing. 100 grand in his pocket, and I missed the party.
I think that's it. Nothing really nuts or hilarious has happend in the last couple days just good shows and meeting rad people. Minneap were on our way, hopefully its good. We hit it with 311 and it was one of the best shows of the tour.

Oh and thanks to the 2 girls that helped hand out music with me today. I forgot your names but hit me up so we can hook you up with passes when we come back to Chicago. You know who you are!

Alright sorry for the nonsense I always wonder if anybody even reads these while I'm writing it.

 So obviously I skipped the 3rd show blog. And that reason is that god hates me, while I was loading gear after the show yesterday I stepped on a rusty rebar spike hidden in the grass and gashed my foot open between my big toe and index toe like and inch in. Had to go to the ER for the 2nd time this tour for stitches and a tet shot. RAD. Just fuckin RADICAL.
Buuut befor that happen we played at 11 45 first slot of the day early as shit and it was good. Started with no one there ended with a whole lot. Show was great. Then I started an alligator farm in my pants because it was so humid, very swampy, hung at the merch tent till 7 then watched bad religion side stage, then the foot incident.
So now today. north Carolina. Stage was in a weird spot show kinda sucked not a lot of kids but the ones there where into it. Today was Jeffrey starrs last day on tour hahaha holy fuck thank god. the worst thing I've ever seen. Glad there's no more trannys creeping around the tour. I feel like a fag just mentioning him. Watched a band called Alexis on fire yeah I know pretty lame emoish type name but they kill it super hard definetly impressed and not a gay scene band either the names decieving.
Saw a kid puke while crowd surfing. that topped my day and made me happy. Almost forgot my toe was hanging off my foot. Orlando Florida next. Swamp ass capitol of the world. Day off in 2 shows really wanna see Bruno. Dolce and Gabbana Hello.

Jared

Showed up in Boston this morn and its rainning pussys and dogs. Thought the show was gonna be canceled but they kept it open and I can say Boston is fuckin dedicated. Sold out fest in the pouring rain and no one seemed to care. We had the 1:45 slot after a screamo electric dance rave hardcore band. (serious) We definetly realized we are the black sheep on this warped.
I seriously thought we were gonna get hated on and have shoes and piss bottles Bulleted at my face, but the show was fucking rad! We had some loyal dirty heads here but the majority of the crowd hadn't heard us and there was a great response after every song. Very stoked. Gonna go drink a beer and take a nap maybe play with myself if none of the dudes come around, 11 hour drive to Virginia.



Jared

  First show was rad, never been to jersey and we just so happened to be playing the same exact time as bad religion so obviosly we are gonna have a way bigger crowd than that silly band. Right. Crowd was smaller but legit all fans new all the words pleasantly suprised actually. Watched the gallows shred jerseys face off. If you havnt heard of em go check them out, a UK band that is the real deal, very sick front man.
Met some rad people at the show. And after at the nightly BBQ for production and bands. Hung out with my buddy brooks from bad religion who introduced me to a lot of people and had drinks with nofx and exchanged disgusting sexual stories about girls shitting while in mid orgsam and a 69 including a tape worm.
Good day if you ask me

What's up everyone. So today we take off for Warped Tour. We got a good month of Summer at home to sit on the beach every day and now we are headed back out. Super stoked to be on Warped this year and get out to cities and states we haven't been to in a bit. I wanna see everyone come out and support! Lets make the DH show the biggest party at Warped. Come hang out at the merch tent with us after we play -- we'll be there all day playing "cornhole" or you can "putt" on the green to win free prizes. Also my boy brooks wackerman (bad religion) is out here showing us the ropes, bad religion is a headliner so go check them out.

I got to design new merch just for warped We got some new tanks, t's and girl t's. Get em befor they run out.

Before our first Warped in Jersey We are gonna be playin with Pepper this Sat the 11th in Park City, UT at the Roots Rock
Reggea Fest. Then some CO dates on the way out...


On a shitty note Jon Jon broke his hand, he was on vacation with his life partner in the Bahamas ninja fighting a transexual shark while saving a basket of mentally retarded puppies (aka a car accident on vaca a couple months ago) and just found out its not getting better and needs surgery so he won't be coming on this tour so he can get better ASAP and start playing again.

So hit us up if you wanna help get the dirtyheads word out. Sticker, flyer, or just hang out and party with us.

Peace!
