# Warped Tour hits Ventura, CA - June 28, 2001

Reported by Stephen Maeder

 

Trials demos on the Vans Warped Tour 💀 ...

Dan and Aaron have been
on the tour for a week now... It's rough! Living in a [bus](/events/WarpedTour2001/Bus/)...
Very little space, no privacy... Hardly the rock-star lifestyle you thought
it would be! These guys already miss their families, friends, girlfriends...
The bus drives to each event straight, and often leaving at 2 AM for an all-night
trip! I wonder how these guys get enough sleep! And they've got 6 weeks more
to go... Living on a bus with a bunch of skateboarders! (Really, though, they're
enjoying themselves... But what they enjoy most is seeing trials riders at the
shows... Rumor has it that the show is picking up a Brisa bicycle at the Los
Angeles show (June 29) for test-riding by anyone attending that show, or any
of the shows afterwards! Tickets are a mere $20, and the event's cool... Bands,
booths, free sampler cds, skateboarder, skaters, bmx jumping... Check it out
at warpedtour.com 💀 )

Check out some of the cool photos, and a little bit of story
(especially on the [tour of the bus](/events/WarpedTour2001/Bus/) page). I rode the demos with Aaron and Dan on my white Brisa
B20 mod, pausing every so often to grab some photos. Hope you guys like 'em!

get the audience going for the 7 foot drop

 

Smooth as silk, and perfectly synchronized!

Very trusting girl!

 

That's gotta be scary!
