The Damned @ F F F Fest
Day two of Fun Fun Fun Fest 2011 was definitely more taxing than day one (pics here and here), in part due to the unrelenting dust storms. But despite a case of brown lung and some fatigue, it was still a blast and I managed to catch most of the sets at the Black Stage, as well as select shows at the Blue Stage and even popped over to checkout M83 at Orange for a bit. Highlights for the day included the Death Grips, the crowd going bat-shit crazy and creating human launch ramps during Paint it Black, Cold Cave blasting out destructive white noise, the return of Hot Snakes and watching The Damned rip through favorites like "New Rose" and "Smash It Up" from their first two albums while making jokes about Danzig (who played a notorious set the night before on the same stage at the same time). Completely different vibe from the night prior (and not the only time a Danzig joke was heard).
The rest of my pictures from Saturday (with more to come) are below...

@6:07 who are your sources?
I'd check them twice.
They put on a great show when they were here.

The whole 'occupy wallstreet' look is so wack.

Is that nappy chest hair or really bad acne on the black guy?
Posted by Anonymous | November 7, 2011 8:08 AM
6:51, I agree. I'd like to hear who puts on a great show from 6:07 there.

haha, that little gremlin in black skanking away in the pit at Negative Approach is priceless! Not a care in the world...yaaaay!

all these clowns in their bandannas are really taking the 'I'm an outlaw' thing a little too far.

Ironic how the guy in the rainbow suspenders is allowing numerous men to use him as a launching pad.

what time does ryan gosling go on?

by the way, the damned show a few weeks ago was awesome. 2nd time i've seen them and they've been great both times.

Would of been nice to see Youth Brigade, The Damned, and as always Negative Approach.
Looks like the Cold Cave was a little overdressed in their outfits.

the only reason all of us were wearing bandanas is cause it was dusty as fuck, we had black snot the next day, it was sick but worth it
