Fun Fun Fun Fest 2012

Okay it’s been over a month since Fun Fun Fun Fest and now I’m finally getting down to writing about it.  For the uninitiated, Fun Fun Fun Fest is a music festival in Austin, Texas that takes place in the fall.  Amongst the bajillion music festivals in the Austin area, this one seems to be the most alternative and wacky.  That’s two things that are near and ear to my heart.  Last year I went with a day pass, but this year I plunked down some change for the 3 day pass.  I’m glad I did.

I Joined Jeff The Brotherhood At Stubb’s

Hey I’m back again and I scored myself a pretty sweet deal seeing Jeff The Brotherhood Monday night.  They headlined a small tour and it showed right up at Stubb’s  Now, I was entertaining guests at the time so I didn’t get a chance to catch the first band, but I did get to see the 2nd biller along with these tiny little headliners.  There was plenty of entertainment for both the tunes and the crowd.

Dirty Projectors Were Actually Pretty Clean

We are smack dab in the summer concert series and Thursday night kept it going strong.  It was back to Emo’s East, or Emo’s I guess what it is now, to see the almighty Dirty Projectors with a little appetizing sauce that was Wye Oak.  It was a truly indie night and the show helped clear the palette for what I’ve been through.  Im’ not saying it’s the turning point of the summer, but it definitely marks the spot where I’ve been musically.  All the bases are covered now except for rap, but that’s okay.  So how did they do?

Spring 2012 Concert Round Up!

Okay, I’ve been super busy building things and making music that I haven’t had the chance to really sit downa nd go over the concerts I hit up this spring.  Believe it or not, there was plenty of acts to roll on through Austin after SXSW to keep my bill full.  So, instead of bangning out an individual post for each,  I will shoot through them with highlights.  Bang.  Bang.

Radiohead.

So it’s been a quiet month for me and it’s about to get a little bit louder.  I’ve been bouncing back and forth getting ready for SXSW this week, but I carved out some time to take road trip to Dallas, Texas to see one of my favorite bands in the world, Radiohead.  I saw them way back when in 2008 in St. Louis and it was time again for me see them live.  Even though the seats weren’t as good, plus I’m a little spoiled by small venues, the show turned out pretty great.  I even made great time back home to Austin.
