PAST SHOWS: MIA on the Old School Stage, Warped Tour 2008 8/14 (San Diego) and 8/17 (Los Angeles)

SHOW LOG

This is from the stage in Los Angeles. There were a lot of people there.

First off, it was amazing to be on a stage with so many cool bands. Jack from TSOL remarked that people were asking him why they were playing the Warped Tour, and he told them "Look at the bill: TSOL, DI, Germs, MIA, Dickies, Mike Watt, Fear, Big Drill Car -- who wouldn't want to be on that bill?" We agreed, it was a really good lineup. We'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Both shows went well, but the LA show felt a little better as we had to shake off a little rust in San Diego. We had to make some tough choices to squeeze everything into a 30 minute set. Scotty Rew introduced us in LA ("I'm Scotty Rew and this song is about me!") and then did a stage dive -- I pity the people he landed on, he almost got kicked out for that.

Here are the 15 songs we played in 30 minutes (!):

SCOTTY REW
TOMIC BOMB
SHADOWS OF MY LIFE
TELL ME WHY
WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM
MODERN WAY
GAS CRISIS
MURDER IN A FOREIGN PLACE
SMALL MAN IN A BIG WORLD
USED TO KNOW ME
NEW LEFT
THE KARMA SUITS YOU
LAS VEGAS
BOREDOM IS THE REASON
MACHINE GUN ETIQUETTE
