Day 2 of the Funs

So, FunFunFun Fest was clearly all about Saturday. Am I glad I got a two day pass? Absolutely. Did I have more funs on Saturday? Sure. Did I also have fun on Sunday? Not as much as Saturday, but come on, there's no way to equally divide three funs between two days. Unless half a fun is allowed. Is it? Well? I'm leaving this one for you to answer because I have no clue.

There was the guy that forgot to wear pants. That was pretty cool, but only because I never had to stand close to him. I hope he didn't get into a mosh pit because then there'd be a dude in a mosh pit without any pants on. The possibility of this happening is now reason 136 for me to never get into a mosh pit again. (Reasons 1 through 15 are that I'm no longer 14 years old.)


St. Vincent was pretty awesome. However, I still don't know if I want buy her CDs. I don't even know if I want to download her CDs. Does she have a CD? I'm not sure if I really care.


I did get a chance to see Minus the Bear. The last time I saw them was in the middle of Summer at Emos. It was super hot and I could only stand about half the show before my friends and I went inside where Local H was playing in the A/C. I don't really regret the decision, but this rendition of "Drilling" makes me think twice.



Also, April and I saw this DJ since neither of us really like Clap Your Hands Say Boring! NSFW.

How Many Funs?

Mohawks, spiked vests, trucker hats, tight jeans, and shirts with pearl snaps in Waterloo park? All at once? What's going on? Ah, right. Austin's FunFunFun Fest started yesterday.


Best dressed for this event was clearly this family. You can't read the kid's shirt in my picture, but I assure you it said "Fuck y'all, I'm from Texas". I'm not often proud to live in Texas, but people like this make my heart swell and my eyes teer up... in awesomeness, that is. Not because I'm a sensitive pussy. I can't possibly be puss, because I'm from Texas.

Gold Tie guy won the "I clearly don't belong here" award for not realizing the title of the festival does not include the words "kinky" or "fetish" in front of any of the "Fun"s. Not even the middle "Fun". (Am I using too many quotes?)


Things I learned at FunFunFun Fest Saturday:

1. Bishop Allen is like Vampire Weekend without the sweater vests, hype, and stupid name. So basically, take the annoying parts away from Vampire Weekend and you get Bishop Allen.


2. Rival Schools are coming out with a new album soon and it will be recorded with much less hair this time. Seriously, I think these guys spend most of their time perfecting the hipster comb over. I'm not trying to make fun of them, since I will need to learn this comb over mastery in the near future.





3. If you want to drink beer and don't want anyone to know it, Miller High Life now comes in a camo can. (Also, this is what I look like when I need two hands to take a picture over a crowd of people.)



4. Checker board hair is not cool. (This was seen during the Killdozer set.)


5. Don't piss off your hipster landlord or he may attack you with blue dye at FunFunFun Fest.


6. I still don't know if I like The National, or if I really really like The National. Their last song of the night ruled. (Speaking of which, I saw a guy with a shirt that had Obama on it with the words "Mr. November" written under the picture. Very cool.)
