Fun Fun Fun Fest is getting ready to kick off the summer right! The last batch of pre-sale tickets just got released today, and are already nearly sold out. Our favorite little fest that could is gearing up for their 7th annual event, and started teasing us last week. Taking place once again Nov 2-3-4 in Austin–the live music capital of the world, at Auditorium Shores (don’t forget to bring your bandanas). They are currently holding a contest until July 1st to give away prizes, including passes to the festival. All you have to do is correctly guess the most artists who will be on their line-up. They announced the first few artists today. The contest is limited to 20 guesses. So here is our list of picks. We will also be updating these hunches as we get more details, so make sure to save this link. And leave your comments about who you are excited about and hope to see, and share your guesses with us. Good luck, and more importantly–have fun! For the record, these artists have not appeared at FFF previously, nor or they scheduled at ACL, which takes place just 2 weeks earlier. We are also excluding those artists performing the weekend before, at the Voo Doo Fest in New Orleans for Halloween.
