« Conrad Murray found guilty in Michael Jackson's death | Jay Reatard documentary screens tonight at IFC Center; pre-show party at Other Music »
by BBG

My final day at Fun Fun Fun Fest 2011 ran the gamut from 90s-indie-worshippers Lemuria to the poppy-hardcore of Kid Dynamite, the Prince-clad hardcore of Ceremony to the glitchy dance of Flying Lotus, and the operatic/enigmatic Austra to the great Slayer. Of the bands that I was not familar with prior to that day (namely OBN IIIs and Les Butcherettes) OBN IIIs set was my favorite; high energy punk/garage was an excellent way to turbo-charge the day. Le Butcherettes were no slouches though, playing fun and spazzy garage-punk featuring the endlessly watachlbe Teri Gender Bender up front and surprise guest Omar Rodriguez-Lopez on bass.
I'll save the "Fun Fun Fun" knee-slapper for pretty much every single band's pre/intra-show banter ("Are you having fun? Are you having Fun Fun Fun?") but yes, Fun Fun Fun Fest lives up to its name.
Previously posted pictures are here: day 1 & day 2, and day 1 & day 2.
More pictures from day three including shots of Lemuria, Le Butcherettes, OBN IIIs, Davila 666, Ceremony, Nobunny, Kid Dynamite, Zero Boys, Eyehategod, Austra, Ted Leo & The Pharmacists, Cannibal Corpse, Boris, Del The Funkee Homosapien, Slayer, Blonde Redhead, and much more, below...

Was Blonde Redhead really on after Slayer? Did anyone really stick around to see them?

Blonde Redhead and Slayer were on at the same time, and no, not a ton of people watched them

Blonde Redhead played on the Black stage from 8:50 to 9:50. Slayer played on the Orange stage from 8:20 to closing (maybe close to 10 pm)

@12:16pm yes that is an AOS shirt but no, that's not Jeff Hanneman. It's Gary Holt from Exodus filling in.

Ugh. Pissed I missed Kid Dynamite in Philly. Was hoping they were going to add a NJ/NYC date.

Kerry King's picture is what you get when you search "Bear" in Urban Dictionary. KK puts the beard back into "the beard".

Kerry King hates the world because he was not born a girl.

unfortunate that BR was scheduled at the same time as slayer and OF. But much to my benefit as they played a wonderfully intimate set and had the best sound of any showcase the entire weekend. An encore with Equus was just incredible, a beautiful night !

It's pretty awesome that HUM played this - bummer there are no pics and the YouTube videos of their set are pretty crappy. Hey! Alright!! Good talk!!!

What does Kerry King eat for breakfast?

Yes, after the cock.
Sausage omelet, or course!

Iz it true that in the Men's clubs Kerry King is known as a Bossy Bottom?

Would you kids please get over Kid Dynamite already and seriously, what is up with that guitarist from Ceremony? I'm sure that's the question he's asking himself.
