...I've never heard of any of those bands in my life. What happened? Last year, I could name a lot of them...

Really? It's probably the first time in a long time I know a lot of the bands in the lineup.

They won't come to Australia and I wouldn't go to a music festival if you paid me but that's a pretty solid line up.

Not even Underoath? Ah trust me I'm sure you would recognize some of the songs by the bands at least.

You've never heard of Bad Religion or NOFX? ;)

But to the OP, I think I'm about 10 years too old for warped tour at this point. I'd rather see Bad Religion on there own and not have to sit through 30+ other bands before hand.

But having said that, when I went to warped tour when I was younger it was a blast.

Agreed. I think I'm most excited for A Day to Remember. ;)

I am very excited. I'll be 16 when I go...my first time too.

Ahh cool man, have a good time. I don't know about now, but in past years you were able to bring in 1 sealed water bottle. Be sure to take advantage of this with a 1 liter bottle if ya can, it gets HOT outside.

At a glance, the lineup is utterly insane. Every single one of those bands is good (to an extent.) Yet, the dates for which bands will be on what parts of the tour haven't been released yet. Here are the bands that I think make the concert worthwhile:

A Day to Remember
A Skylit Drive ( to an extent)
Alexisonfire
Bad Religion
Chiodos
Flogging Molly
Gallows
Less Than Jake
NOFX
Saosin
Senses Fail
Silverstein
The Devil Wears Prada
The Maine
Thrice
Underoath

But I also think this lineup somewhat sucks. The bands are all aimed towards the same scene genres without much diversity. I mean, really: Brokencyde, Millionaires, Breathe Carolina, FTSK? I do like FTSK, but the tours are getting out of hand. I barely see any good metal bands up there, too. In the past, there's been As I Lay Dying and KSE. At least other good bands, like Anti-flag and Bouncing Souls along with Flogging Molly help this.

I'm going on the July 9th date (Cleveland, OH.) Last year's lineup wasn't as good as I thought it would be, and this year seems to bring much more to the table (for the better or worse.) Im looking forward to it.

I'm with you on that. I don't do festivals when I can pay $25, see anyone of the bands at a club, not deal with massive crowds and 20 bands I have no interest in, not to mention being way farther away than I would at a club show.

That being said, its a decent lineup, but the only band I have a lot of interest in seeing is Thrice, my favorite band. They play out here fairly often, I'll just wait until a fall or spring headlining tour and see them then. I've already seen them a few times in the last year, so I can live without doing a warped tour.
