Hii :)
This is my first time going to Warped?! I heard it was fun and all that and I bought tickets already for me and my friend on August 11, 2011 in SleepTrain Sacramento :)

How long will the tickets come through mail?
What time is Warped Over?
What time should I arrive with my friend, if I want to be first the show starts eleven in the morning?
How much should I bring?
What kind of food do they sell?
What should I be prepared for, (the atmosphere) ?
Is there cute boys? :)
Should I bring a bag cause I'm still debating weather I should or not?
After each show does the band, or solo artist hang with the fans?
Do other bands who don't tour come with?
Preparing for the night before and morning?

Thank You :)
 
The best way to prepare for Warped Tour is to sell your tickets.
 
Tickets: If you bought pre-sale they will come 2 weeks before your date.

Time: It starts at 11AM and it will end around 8:30PM depending on if they start on time.

Arrival Time: Bands start playing a half an hour after doors open. So get there like 2 hours before the gates open. People do start lining up at 6AM. The line move pretty fast though.

Bring: Water, Sunscreen, Hat, Hand sanitizer, backpack, brush, sharpie, camera, cellphone, cash.

Food: Pizza, hot dogs, turkey legs, chicken teriyaki (I think it depends on your venue), etc...

Atmosphere: It can be overwhelming with all the booths and people but its a fun atmosphere explore all the booths.

Boys: Yeah there are a few =]

Bag: Yes I recommend a bag because you need a place to put your merch and water. Make a good sized backpack.

After show: Bands hold signings through out the day (Not all of them but a good amount). Drop by the bands merch tent to see when/where/time and get to signings like an hour early because lines get really long. After a certain amount of people they cut off the line. Sometimes you can even catch the bands at the beginning of warped tour at their merch tent chilling. Throughout the day some bands hang out at their tent helping sell merch or they are walking around watching other bands set. I've seen a ton of members just chilling at their tents.

Other bands: Yeah while your waiting in line bands play outside of warped tour who could not get their band to play warped tour.

Preparation: The night before make sure you have everything you want to take laid out or in the backpack your taking.Make your sure you have your ticket. Get a good nights sleep because it will be a long day the following day. The day of warped tour make sure you have your tickets and what you plan to take with you. Eat a really good breakfast to keep your going longer.

How long will the tickets come through mail? Depends where you live and what priority shipping
What time is Warped Over? I think 3 days
What time should I arrive with my friend, if I want to be first the show starts eleven in the morning? it doesn't matter people usually lose their spots after they go get a drink or whatever you can be ANYWHERe you want you just have to move past people.
How much should I bring? less then $50(for merch/food) if you7 get in the pit you might lose your wallet with your money in it
What kind of food do they sell? unhealthy shit(pop,popcorn,chips,hotdogs,typical concert shit)
What should I be prepared for, (the atmosphere) prepare to be groaped by balding 30 year old men if you decide to move closer,scene kids having seizures, ?
Is there cute boys? :) Usually the type of kids you see at warped tour are the same type of people who you see at bus stops loitering and smoking
Should I bring a bag cause I'm still debating weather I should or not? it'll get in the way
After each show does the band, or solo artist hang with the fans? Some bands do usually they have a booth thingy set up at festivals.
Do other bands who don't tour come with? .....no
Preparing for the night before and morning? WEAR perfume/deordorant pit girls that smell like b.o yuck
 
Not sure, it's my first year too and I'll see you there!!
All I know is the atmosphere has music lovers, there better be cute boys xD, you should bring lots of money to buy food and other tempting things, and bring a bag (for the crap you buy).
Ack sorry I wasn't a good help :(
