Beware of fake Warped Tour messages and profiles!
Some of the bands listed as playing this year's Warped Tour have been receiving the following message on Myspace. Please DO NOT REPLY to this message, as the person sending it is not affiliated with the tour in any way. We are working to have the profile shut down. If you have been contacted by this person, please delete the message right away.
We are all for people trying to help promote the bands on the tour, but NOT when they are pretending to work for the tour and making false claims.
Hey guys we are happy to have you on this years tour. It should be awesome with that being said if you have any tours or shows coming up before or after warped tour just let me know and i will make sure to spread the word. If you have any banners or videos you would like for us to post shoot us the codes and they will be added to the page. We are here to help promote you guys and to get your fan excited about seeing you this summer on tour so use us how you see fit that is why we are here. Oh also we are going to be putting a music player up on our page so if there is a song you would like for us to add just tell us the name and it will be added. Hope the rest of your day goes great and i will talk to you soon. :)
May 28, 2008 Now that the application is closed and the Sonic Bids contest has ended, there is only one way your band can land a spot on the Kia Kevin Says Stage this summer: Sabian's "Dream Spot" Contest! You only have until Friday to enter, so don't waste any time!
If you are wondering whether your band got picked to play already, just keep checking your inbox for a message from "Kevin Says Stage" -- we are confirming bands one month in advance of their date(s) on the stage!
Keep checking the BANDS page as well, for a complete list of bands playing each date.
April 21, 2008 The SABIAN Dream Spot competition will once again be joining the Vans Warped Tour in 2008. The second annual promotional contest will give one lucky band the chance to play 10 dates on the 14th annual Road Trip through North America. The winning band will have the opportunity to play the Kia Kevin Says stage – the very stage that was the launching pad for many SABIAN bands including My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy and Avenged Sevenfold.
From now through May 23, bands can click here to submit three original songs in MP3 format, along with a video and a brief bio about their band. Then, the selection committee, comprised of SABIAN's experts, plus Vans Warped Tour representatives including Founder Kevin Lyman, will select the 10 finalists!
On June 16, the 10 finalists' videos and songs will be posted on www.sabian.com for you to vote! The band receiving the most fan votes will be announced on July 1, and the lucky Dream Spot winner will hit the road with the Vans Warped Tour in August.
Thanks to all the bands who submitted for this year's tour! We will be going through every single application over the next few weeks, and we'll start contacting bands at the begnning of May and listing bands as they are confirmed on http://kevinsaysstage.com.
Please do not contact us -- we will contact you if you are chosen!

The application is back in action!
January 30, 2008 Hello, all you anxious people who are wondering what's up for this year's HTKS stage!
Here's the deal:
1. The application will go up on kevinsaysstage.com in the beginning of February.
2. We will keep the application up for about 6-8 weeks.
3. We try to keep the stage new and fresh each year by choosing bands who have never played the tour before, so if you are a returning customer from last year please be aware that your chances are slim.
4. We do not need anyone to work for the stage or the tour. We're staffed!
