Scribble Jam ends on Sunday, but the hip-hop keeps rolling through Cincinnati with the Vans Warped Tour, which stops Monday at Riverbend Music Center.
The music festival, one of the summer's touring success stories, brings together dozens of artists playing punk, emo, metal, hip-hop and all sorts of cross-genre hybrids. Among the national headliners are punk veterans Bad Religion, Anti-Flag and Bouncing Souls, and up-and-comers Yellowcard, Taking Back Sunday and Coheed and Cambria.

The Warped Tour lineup includes several artists with connections to Scribble Jam, including one of the hip-hop festival's founders, Mr. Dibbs, who performs with Minneapolis crew Atmosphere. Mr. Dibbs is likely to show up at Scribble Jam over the weekend, says a fellow co-founder, "Fat" Nick Accurso.
Local DJ DQ (Dan Hargraves) is playing the entire Warped run with Glue and also will perform on the Code of the Cutz stage in Cincinnati with another one of his groups, Animal Crackers. Glue is scheduled to perform at Scribble Jam today.
The Code of the Cutz stage will host several local hip-hop musicians, including NSP Crew. Cross-genre artist Abiyah, who played the local Warped show last year and lined up performances on the tour in Chicago and Columbus this year, as well, is teaming up in Cincinnati with punk group Paperback.
Along with the local hip-hop artists, numerous bands from the area are set to play on the Warped Tour's Cincinnati stop. The lineup includes Aloneat3am, Better Luck Next Year, Bottom Line, Death in Graceland, the Junior Revolution, Lightweight Holiday the Scrubs and Suffocate Faster.
