MUSIC: And The First Band Confirmed For Warped Tour '07 Is...

...Bad Religion! Yes, the veteran California punks are definites on this coming year's Warped Tour.



The Warped appearance comes right in time for the band to support what will be their fourteenth (!) album and their third since rejoining their original label, Epitaph Records, in 2001. The band's been in the studio for some time now, as well as participating in extra-curricular activities and playing Canadian dates with The Dropkick Murphys.



The 2007 edition of Warped Tour is expected to take place, as it usually does, between June and August.

kewl.

Too bad it's warped tour...

20 minute sets are awesome!

If they throw a couple more of my favorite bands in there I might actually brave the heat next year! ZOMG.

Hmmm...would there be any way to arrive just to see Bad Religion? ...preferrably in a hot air balloon that would hover over the crowd?

Easy in, easy out.

Well, let's hope there gonna more awesome bands this year with Bad Religion than last year with NOFX and Less Than Jake because I might not show up...

Last summer (2006) sucked and there was only like 12 to 16-year old emo kids everywhere! A friend of mine even told she heard a christian emo bad singing!!

Well, I guess if Bas Religion are gonna be there, more nice bands will wanna tour too... let's hope so!

that christian emo band is underoath. Underoath is amazing

I'm hopping for Flogging Molly or the Dropkick Murphys this year. If they show up, I might well make this my first warped tour

I was on Warped in 04, and the last 2 days in Boston included the 10th Anniversary show. BR, Flogging Molly, Dropkick, NOFX. Man, it was awesome. It would be great if Kevin Lyman could get all of these bands to play on the tour at the same time.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Warped Tour 2005: PHENOMINAL. Transplants, My Chem, Dropkick Murphys, Offspring, BILLY FUCKING IDOL! It couldn't 've gotten any better... unless Flogging Molly were there.

Haha.
I've seen Bad Religion play so many times.
My favorite time was in DC years ago:

In front of me were two teenage girls (around age 15), and as soon as Bad Religion took stage and started playing, one girl looks to the other and yells, "These guys are SO old!!!!!"

I couldn't stop laughing for at least ten minutes.

anyone recognize the guy in the lower right hand corner of that photo? its brian baker from minor threat !

let's hear it for the originals that manage to stay relevant!
joan jett did pretty well for herself on warp last year . . .
