This tastes like the cow got into an onion patch. Yesssssssssss.
This is probably the most cliche way to start this, but honestly all I can think about today is the movie SLC Punk. The strange part about that is this: I don't really remember anything about that movie other than the fact that I think that dude who wound up being a killer in one of the Scream movies was in it. Who was also in Spanish Judges with Dennis Keiffer, who was in Death Sentence, which also starred. . . Kevin Bacon.
None of those people were at Warped Tour today.
AP, however, was squarely positioned smack in the middle of the Smartpunk/Hurley.com stage set-up and the Highway 1 mainstage. This lead mostly into a mash-up of Against Me!/FTSK, Angels & Airwaves/Katy Perry, Relient K/3OH3 and other unlikely combos of the sort. The Almighty Norma F'in Jean (I think only 2 of those words are actually part of their name. I think?) and Anberlin stopped by to sign the glorious AP program guides. Thankfully the NJ boys refrained from punching any babies in the face during their tenure. Just ask them about that, their new album incites such activities, so we all dodged a bullet on that one. The venue today was super tightly packed. A whole lotta people in not a whole lotta space. There was, however, a building simply labeled "Sheep" so there's always that.
Back to SLC Punk though. I saw the movie when I was fairly young, maybe like 13 or 14 (does that timeline even work? I think so. . . yeah fact checking!). I think it was a post-season party I had with my hockey team celebrating our 60-8 dual-championship winning season (oh yeah, w-i-n-n-e-r-s). It's not so much that I wasn't paying attention to the movie or that it was really even that long ago, it's just that nothing about the movie really stuck with me other than the simple fact that, yes, it does exist. So why is it then, that when in Salt Lake City this relatively obscure movie that I don't really even remember is the only thing that comes to mind?
