Gym Class Heroes

As posted in an earlier blog, Gym Class Heroes were rumored to be scheduled for this year’s Vans Warped Tour traveling festival. Well, the complete lineup has been recently announced as well as all the tour dates, and Gym Class Heroes will be among the acts in the 2008 installment of the long-running fest. This will definitely help expose GCH to a buttload of new people all over North America who may have never heard their music or seen them live, as Warped is definitely geared more towards a punk and rock-oriented crowd. They’ll be joined by punk legends Bouncing Souls and Pennywise, as well as other bands such as Every Time I Die, Norma Jean, The Bronx and The Academy Is…
