FunFunFun Fest Preview: Conflicts

One of my favorite posts to write whenever there are impending festivals is the "Conflicts" posts. This is where I pour over the schedule and identify the spots in which you're going to have to do some Rosemary's baby kinda shit to decide which artist you want to catch. Now FunFunFun Fest makes things a bit easier on you because it's RELATIVELY easy to move between stages AND they have the free Nites shows to supplement your viewing pleasures. Below the break you'll find my personal conflicts in the line-up. I generally don't drift to the Black stage very often but for those of you who do there are even more conflicts to deal with. For the bands playing a Nites event you'll find a + after their name.
