Warped 2008: The Force is with many

Wooow. Christian funk rockers Family Force 5 has just about as many gathered around the Hurley Stage - a smaller stage set in a corner waaay across the tent concourses from the side-by-side Main Stages - as Story of the Year does in front of the south Main Stage.

SotY is performing its usual strong turn. So I'm taking in Family Force 5, and it's impressing me. "Supersonic" ripped: this unidentified song is equally frenzied and charismatic. These Atlanta-area guys are a little over-energized, and from screamo to electronica and funk punk, it's not above using just about every trick in the youth-rock textbook.

But it's got one of the intangibles that can't be taught: stage presence. Another: finesse. Slick, slick, slick. Hallelujah, eh?
