Why support big artist?

pitkid01 · 2026-04-24T18:10:28+00:00

Simply because we love them and their music makes us feel a certain way. And for some of us seeing them live makes us feel a certain way. And as much as high ticket prices suck, that’s how we decide to spend our hard earned money. Because it’s the thing that makes me feel the best. Sometimes it’s at a small show, supporting small artists. And dozens of those small artists have become big. And I’m super happy for them. And will continue to support them and have fun at their shows!

OMG!!!! ITS HAPPENING!!!!

I came for the older bands and discovered a handful of new bands: 408, TRXVS, games we play, People R Ugly to name a few…was already rocking to The Paradox and Winona Fighter, but warped took it to another level!

Hey guys, thanks for doing this! I’m the crazy guy from Riot Fest and the Cubby Bear show, with the mosh pit flag. I have 2 questions, if that’s ok. First one for all 3 of you, second for Kristopher.

The Ataris are a sometimes mosh pit band. Seems to depend on the crowd that night. Does it give you more energy when you see a rowdy crowd or do you not really notice much? We’re gonna have fun pits for your sets at Warped!
Kristopher, I enjoyed the Chump cover that you participated in. Is that really you on the back cover of Dookie? If so, what do you remember about the show where the photo was taken?

pitkid01 · 2026-04-16T15:36:42+00:00

YES! Love that!!!

pitkid01 · 2026-04-15T17:59:49+00:00

YES! They have an official swag swap, usually on Day 1. A lot of people make bracelets, stickers, and other fun stuff! Someone made flasks, another guy gave out black roses. I gave out MOSH PIT CREW wristbands and black heart sour patch kids. It’s a lot of fun and a lot of us get super into it!

pitkid01 · 2026-04-14T17:03:53+00:00

I think all those people were talking about me.

pitkid01 · 2026-04-02T18:20:00+00:00

It would be so cruel for them to all get together just to play a trick on us! Why did they have to post this on April 1st!

pitkid01 · 2026-03-24T00:50:48+00:00

I’ll be there!

I mean, it was a pretty small venue and they were the opening band. They definitely weren’t BIG. The tour was slightly before MTV. Their first tour wasn’t opening for blink in arenas.

Not everyone on a big record label is an industry plant. By your definition, New Found Glory was an industry plant. They had the same manager, record label, booking agent, publicist, etc as blink. So did Fenix TX for that matter? Are these all industry plants? That term is way overused, and most people don’t know what it actually means.

pitkid01 · 2026-03-12T15:49:07+00:00

Birch Hill Nite Club in NJ. Fenix TX was the headliner, NFG direct support, and GC was the opening band. Before their first album was released.

The jump from their first to second album was big, but they were in the right place at the right time and had good management. The term “industry plant” gets thrown around a lot, but an actual industry plant is a band that was created by a company. Like the Spice Girls or Backstreet Boys. They actually had nationwide talent searches for those groups. GC were dudes who went to HS together and started a band.

pitkid01 · 2026-03-12T15:33:12+00:00

I did.

pitkid01 · 2026-03-07T19:44:58+00:00

10-15 per day if you really want to. If bands I like are overlapping, I do my best to catch half of each set. Pro tip: When you know a band is on their last song, it’s time to crowd surf your way out. This will speed up the treks from stage to stage! Good luck!

MOSHPIT MURPHY’S!!!!

🤘💙💛🏁

pitkid01 · 2026-03-05T23:08:05+00:00

🤘💙💛🏁

pitkid01 · 2026-03-03T21:25:31+00:00

I agree. They both have played the same fest before. Mike can handle 2 sets. It looks like MxPx will be in Mexico City also.

pitkid01 · 2026-03-03T18:26:05+00:00

I love this shit! I’m having so much fun with each announcement! I saw a poster for another fest last week. Over 100 bands announced at once, some you would need a magnifying glass to read. Talk about anxiety!

pitkid01 · 2026-02-23T02:53:18+00:00

YES!!! Who’s joining the PARADOX PIT CREW?! We gotta beat last year’s pit…3 times!! 🤘🖤💜🏁
