Did you attend Vans Warped Tour last weekend? If so, what was your experience like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hit reply or send an email to jacob@lbpost.com<\/a> to share your impression of the festival, whether you were there or just waded through the crowd to dine or shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I live downtown, and it was refreshing to see the streets flooded with festival attendees (although parking was more of a headache than usual).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was especially nice to see local food spots receive much-deserved patronage, such as the new cafe<\/a> featured in the Eat section this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you loved it or hated it, be ready, it’s coming back next year<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, be sure to check out our story in the Do section below about a pair of recent Poly grads who \u2014 through sheer creativity and force of will \u2014 are staging an original play at a professional venue in Santa Monica. It’s a great read<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
