it was fun... just weird. mike had us do jazz hands at the end of the songs because it sounded so pitiful with just a couple of people clapping.

SkolarX (October 23, 2006)

at our show he was wandering as far from the stage as the mic cord allowed and kept messing with people. pretty funny actually

60 the night before in Detroit. Thursday night the Bouncing Souls were playing Detroit though, figure that had to have killed at least some of the draw. both bands put on great sets though

Haha Peaches, bitch is crazy. I'd go to this for the Circle Jerks alone, plus do guilty pleasures get any better than The Sounds? Nope.

this is amazing. probably one of the best fest of the year. it's not expensive and it's not going 110 degrees out... so yeah, this will be rad.

This would probably be the only reason I would ever want to go to Texas.

SlackMFr (October 23, 2006)

Geez, someone from Texas came up with the crowd-drawing name of FunFunFun Fest? Go figure.

P.S. The Sounds are one of the shittiest bands around right now.
