Best show moment ever

Despite the heat, my microcassette recorder not getting two interviews, and the International Superheroes of Hardcore LP I bought being warped (irony!), the Vans Warped Tour has actually brought me what I can pretty much state as the best show moment of my entire life:

The Aggrolites.
With Angelo Moore.
From Fishbone.
On the main stage at Sandstone.
Doing a medley of “Skinhead Moonstomp,” “Party At Ground Zero,” and “Monkey Man.”

And if that wasn’t enough… I watched it from the SIDE OF THE FUCKING STAGE. I was standing next to Aaron Barrett from Reel Big Fish and the drummer from the HorrorPops while the girls from Oreskaband danced on the other side of the stage.

I have pictures. Lots of them. They’ll be posted Friday. Lots of really good shots. I will never be in front of another barricade if I can possibly avoid it. It’s so nice to have room to shoot.

Fishbone – “Party At Ground Zero” (from Fishbone)
Toot and the Maytals – “Monkey Man” (single)
