It amazes me what some people will wear...I mean whomever invented florescent mesh, should be burned at the stack for evil witchery. And don't get me started on the whole weird cut off leggings with shorts or skirts. So I am here to give you a few tips on what not to be caught dead in and what will get you the right kind of attention while you rock out to some of the best names in pop/punk/rock/emo/alternative music.
Do wear skinny jeans or fabulous short shorts. Don't wear skirts, dresses, baggy jeans, jeans with chains,mesh shorts. (you want to look good but you don't want to be exposed while crowd surfing or look trashy while walking by someone cute.)
Girls: Do wear layered tank tops....nothing with sleeves...you don't want pit sweat stains.
Guys: Do wear tees but make sure they are form fitting... or sleeveless. It is up to you weather you want to show a little more skin.
Do carry a pretty tote bag to keep sunscreen (you will need it), hair brush (you will need it), water bottles from home so you don't end up paying $584237594 for it, deodorant (you will need it), and then you will have somewhere to put the cute shirts you bought from Glamour Kills, Peta, or Heartcore Clothing. and of course your favourite band.
Don't expect your friend to hold your shit for you.
Do wear over sized sunglasses.
Don't wear your prescription eye glasses if possible. They are likely to get broken.
Do wear comfy shoes...you will be walking a lot. Vans and Converse are probably seen most often but anything that will stay on will do. (that is nice) something that is washable preferably because they are likely to get dirty also.
Don't wear heals, flip flops, boots, uncomfortable flats....you could most likely lose them in the crowd and your feet will kill.
DON'T make your hair some obnoxious colour. DON't wear mesh of any sort....or fishnet.
Make sure you look amazing....but make sure your outfit functions. Don't be a joke. Be beautiful.

| |  | You are the kind of person that ruins warped tour for the real punks...people do not need to be told how to dress at warped tour...real punk isn't about fashion its about the music and the passion, the sheer energy of a pit, the comradeship of fellow warpers sweating it out while picking up sweet free stuff from the booths. Guess what punks wear fishnet, have crazy colored hair, wear chains, they aren't all a bunch of commercial whores. Do not bastardize the one form of music that isn't concentrated on money and brands. Do not ruin punk. If you want to judge people on their fashion go back to high school. Yes people should be comfortable, and certain fashion choices don't seem all to comfortable, but if people want to express themselves with neon green fishnets or goth pants I say more power to them. Warped tour is the one social setting where you can express yourself in just about anyway you want without being judged for it. I've been going since I was 14 years old...I am now 21 I know what I'm talking about. Waer what you are comfortable in and drink lots of water so you don't dehydrate, bring a backpack, and if somebody falls pick them up. Don't be a snob at Warped Tour or you will be miserable because your makeup will melt, your sunglasses will get smashed, and you're hair will get messed up, all in all you'll look like hell at the end and so will everyone else.
P.S. if your going to try to hook up with one of those cute punk rock boys, don't think dressing like a prep and avoiding messing up your hair is going to get you anywhere. You are a fake and we can all see right through it.

When it began, for those who don't know
it didn't matter how you looked or what you wore to a show
dress codes, FUCK NO! we didn't care
about the brand of your jeans and all that shit in your hair
But now the biggest part is all about the image and not the art
Fashion before passion!
And at nights, it makes me mad that I should have to ask:
What happened to the passion? (passion!)
What the reason for screaming?
What happened the music and the message that I love?
What happened to the hard work? (hard work!)
And why does everybody look the same?
What happened the music and the message that I love?
And I know, that people change
and we go through different stages in life
and I'm not here to criticize
but the reason I scream, is a feeling inside
But now the biggest part is all about the image and not the art
Fashion before passion!
And at nights, it makes me mad that I should have to ask:
What happened to the passion? (passion!)
What the reason for screaming?
What happened the music and the message that I love?
What happened to the hard work? (hard work!)
And why does everybody look the same?
What happened the music and the message that I love?
Lost (1,2,3,4) lifetime ago it seems
you gave up on your wildest dreams
but i refuse to let mine go
I took an oath, you can find me here
with an open heart and ears
refusing to surrender
I can't believe they don't remember
what it feels like to be young
What happened to the passion? (passion!)
What the reason for screaming?
What happened the music and the message that I love?
What happened to the hard work? (hard work!)
And why does everybody look the same?
What happened the music and the message that I love?
