Most bands make an announcement about a tour or album through their publicists. Every Time I Die chose to announce their Warped Tour appearance the old fashioned way – a YouTube announcement. Since it’s their fourth year playing the festival, they liken themselves to seniors, threatening all ‘freshman bands’ with swirlies and ‘kick me’ signs and even telling Warped founder and ‘principal’ Kevin Lyman that they’re giving him a wedgie. Funny stuff now, but by the time they’re in the middle of the, singer Keith Buckley could be going off on rants again.
