VANS WARPED TOUR LIFESTYLE TO BE IMMORTALIZED IN PRINT; 'WARPED BOOK: TALES OF FREEDOM AND PSYCHOTIC AMBITION' AVAILABLE ON THIS YEAR'S TOUR WHICH KICKS OFF ON JUNE 21
As a special addition to this year's VANS WARPED TOUR, there will be a VANS WARPED TOUR memorabilia book. WARPED BOOK: TALES OF FREEDOM AND PSYCHOTIC AMBITION is a collaboration between tour founder Kevin Lyman, author Heidi Siegmund Cuda and photographer Lisa Johnson. Writer Heidi Siegmund Cuda also penned the graphic biography Sublime's Brad Nowell: Crazy Fool (Portrait of a Punk) and Got Your Back: Protecting Tupac In the World of Gangsta Rap. WARPED BOOK features photographs by Lisa Johnson, who has been documenting the tour since its inception and is a regular contributor to Kerrang! and Guitar World magazines. WARPED BOOK: TALES OF FREEDOM AND PSYCHOTIC AMBITION will enable fans to tap into the lifestyle of the tour. The book will feature Warped facts, road stories from bands, interviews with Pennywise, Rancid, NOFX, Vandals, Flogging Molly and Ice T to name a few, as well as behind-the-scenes photos and other memorabilia collected during the past seven years. The book will be available at all VANS WARPED TOUR dates and coming soon at www.warpedbook.com. WARPED BOOK: TALES OF FREEDOM AND PSYCHOTIC AMBITION was inspired by a love for music and fond recollections of VANS WARPED TOURS past. From its humble beginnings in '95, when it was fueled exclusively on beer and belief, to its current status as America's largest and most established punk rock festival, the VANS WARPED TOUR and WARPED BOOK: TALES OF FREEDOM AND PSYCHOTIC AMBITION are a celebration of a lifestyle. Current tour dates are as follows (subject to change). Also, check out www.warpedtour.com for up-to-date info on the tour.
