This was a pretty interesting show. I don't know why, but for some reason they held the Warped Tour and Ozzfest on the same day at the same spot. Ozzfest was down the hill and the Warped Tour was up the hill. It worked out pretty well for the most part. There was surprising little crossover by the audiences. People might come over to the other side to see a specific band or just wander through to see what was going on and then head back. I saw a ton of great bands on the Warped side, it was a really good lineup that year. The vibe was a lot more positive and friendly there. The vibe at Ozzfest was noticeably more aggro. Not hostile, but angrier and less fun. I walked through once and I think I watched the Melvins, Motorhead, and Tool from on top of the hill, or at least part of their sets. I remember the weather was really nice. Overall it was a fun, if kind of weird, day.
