FunFunFun Fest Preview: Charli XCX


I want to start this post by urging you to buy FunFunFun Fest tickets. It is my favorite centralized music festival in Austin and this year is sure to be just as good, if not better than last year. They've added a Taco Cannon this year that will shoot Torchy's Tacos into the crowd, some of which will have backstage passes embedded. I mean, seriously people don't try to resist this festival it will haunt you. You'll be all like, "I don't live life with regrets...except in 2012 when I skipped FunFunFun Fest and didn't eat any airborne tacos. That I regret."

For those of you, who will be attending (cool people) I don't want you to miss Charli XCX. I love her like the daughter I will never have and her set is going to be the motherfucking JAM! So far her only domestic release is the You're The One EP but if you search around you can find her UK EP, Stay Away as well. If you're not hooked then you probably don't like dark-pop and we can't be friends anymore.

You'll find Charli XCX on the Blue Stage at 6:15pm Saturday. She's playing at the same time as Real Estate, which sucks balls because I love Real Estate too. Why music festivals?!?! *Shakes Fist at Sky* Whatever, Charli XCX is foreign, which means she's less likely to be back in Austin within the next three months. On the other hand Real Estate once played a show in my friend's living room so, they'll probably be back soon.
