Descendents Unite to Headline Fun Fun Fun Fest 2010
Austin, Texas (October 29, 2010) – Fun Fun Fun Fest is proud to announce the addition of The Legendary Descendents to the lineup of the 5th annual music and comedy event in Waterloo Park November 5-7, 2010.
The reunion show of this elusive and world renowned pop punk act will replace the Sunday headlining spot previously held by Devo.
The Descendents’ performance at Fun Fun Fun Fest this year marks their first with the full band in almost a decade.
The Descendents will be joined by the late additions of Nacional Records’ Nortec Collective Presents Bostich + Fussible; the melodic and chill-wave sounds of Washed Out; the subdued indie sounds of The Antlers; and the indie break out band, Cults.
“I really can’t believe it. The Descendents were one of those bands on my dream list that I thought I would never get to book” Says Graham Williams, FFF Founder. “A week ago, we had no idea what we were going to do, and now we couldn’t be more happy”.
This year’s music lineup of more than 80 acts ranging from hip hop to punk rock including “Weird Al” Yankovic, MGMT, Suicidal Tendencies, Mastodon, Slick Rick, Bad Religion, Capn’ Jazz, The Hold Steady, Devin the Dude, Dirty Projectors, RJD2, The Vandals, Gwar, Monotonix, Pharoahe Monch, and many more. Go to www.funfunfunfest.com for the full lineup. Weekend passes and single day tickets are still available but limited.

Or maybe the title is "Bands that were the first to answer their voice mail on short notice"

These comments reek of damage control by the FFFF organizers. No one really thinks thant the Descendents are a reasonable replacement for DEVO, right?
