I had a great time at Warped Tour this year. After getting the worst sun burn of my life, I made my way around the booths and was really impressed at what I saw. I went to an autograph signing at the peta2.com booth, and while I was there watched a video showing cows, pigs, and chickens being tortured by the meat industry. It really made me give some thought to where the meat I had been eating come from.
