A Warped Nassau show
from: newsday.com
by Rafer Guzman, Newsday Staff Writer
Good news about this summer's Vans Warped Tour: It won't be held on dust-ridden Randalls Island.
Instead, it will take place on the pavement-covered parking lot of Nassau Coliseum.
The Warped Tour, a traveling punk-rock festival now in its 12th year, has traditionally been held at Randalls, where a combination of sun-baked soil and gigantic mosh-pits usually results in sweaty, dirt-covered kids. This year, however, the tour is relocating to the relatively dust-free lots outside the Coliseum. A Warped Tour spokeswoman says renovations on the island are forcing the festival to move.
Concerts will take place in lots one and two, and will feature the usual multi-stage setup, with five main stages and several smaller stages. The bill features dozens of bands, including Thursday, Anti-Flag, Motion City Soundtrack, Underoath, Armor For Sleep, The Academy Is... and JOAN JETT AND THE BLACKHEARTS.
The event takes place at noon Aug. 5. Tickets are $35 and go on sale at 10 a.m. Saturday. Call 631-888-9000 or go to www.ticketmaster.com.
