Ludo Warped Tour Diary: Thursday, 7/24/08 Darien Lake P.A.C. (Darien Center, NY)



.
(antiMusic) Ludo will be checking in with us all summer as they rock the Warped tour in support of their Island Def Jam CD "You're Awful, I Love You". Here is the band with today's entry:

Woke up in Buffalo! Twas a cool, cloudy day. Fortunately for us, our bus was parked much closer to the Hurley.com Stage. Short load-in... Daddy like. Byron and Randy already had the Ludo machine up and running when we emerged from our slumber-chambers. Is this what life on the road can be like? Why were we in a van this whole time? Oh yeah, because we had no money. Sweet. Let's milk this thing while Warped Tour lasts. Someone bring me a vegan chimichanga. Since our set time was 6:45, we figured we would have to do the signing earlier in the day. We set it for 2:30 and then prepared for no one to show up since it was before we were even playing. Much to our surprise, there were 100 people waiting when we got there. Signed stuff for 45 minutes, grabbed some foods, and then commenced the warm-up. Took stage after a couple hardcore bands and blasted through the same set as the day before. A little more comfortably though. The Hurley.com Stage crew was very good to us, and made life easy. Right after we played, I ran to the side of the stage with my marching band hat on, and with an Island Street Teamer holding a boombox that played Ohio State marching tunes, I led a parade of idiots to the Ludo merch tent. There we all acted like idiots and listened to marching music, whilst the rest of Ludo packed up. We retired to the tent while Byron and Randy tore down the merch and loaded it out. Marshall fired up the grill and made foods for us. Jim (our bus driver) pulled away around 11:00pm, we had a meeting with Brigitte, recorded some ringtones for Arizona Iced Tea and some liners for AT&T on Matt's computer, and then went beddy-bye.
