The 4th Annual FUN FUN FUN fest
Presented by Transmission Entertainment & Incase
November 7-8th, 2009
Waterloo Park
Austin, TX

THE. BEST. FEST. EVER. Were it not for the fact that it happens in November, FUNFUNFUNfest would be the best/last outdoor independent music festival of the 2009 summer season.

Austin’s vibe is always easy breezy and positive. It takes place in beautiful, relaxing Waterloo Park mere blocks from the heart of town. You just sort of walk everywhere, graze restaurants and street vendors, watch rock shows, and stumble into pals. Totally early 90s Dazed and Confused-style.

As for the line-up, FUNFUNFUN’s roster is comprised of a veritable who’s who of the bands, comedians, and djs lurking on the summer outdoor festival circuit—Fucked Up, Crystal Castles, Kid Sister, Jesus Lizard, Cool Kids, Destroyer, No Age and dozens more. And, yes, most importantly, DANZIG is headlining. So random.

Bring earplugs and comfortable shoes. Take a road trip, this one is not to be missed.

No Age Baggage Survives with Ease

No Age checked in with us from tour over the weekend! In between their sweat-soaked euphoric punk shows in Manchester and Lisbon with Los Campesinos, they took a moment to photograph X-Rayed African tribesmen and their baggage surviving with ease, thanks to the Incase gear we hooked them up with for tour.

No Age Goes on Tour to Europe

To say Dean Spunt and Randy Randall of NO AGE (Sub Pop), LA’s favorite two-man punk band, are enthusiastic about the world around them is, uh, an understatement. Whatever “it” is, if they discover something and like it, they tend to put the full weight of their positive powers to work.

Fortuitously for Incase, from our guitar cases to our backpacks and most brightly colored protective covers, Dean and Randy are waaayyy pumped. They also happen to be tight bros with a few people around here, which makes the nice vibes even nicer.

Last week, we sent the boys off on their latest jaunt across the UK & Europe with some stuff to protect their gear. If you’ve ever seen NO AGE live, and know their relentless tour schedule, then you’d know they need gear protection. Case in point, the tour is called ‘Shred Yr Face,’ enough said.

From time to time over the next couple of weeks, while out annihilating Ye Olde World with tour mates Times New Viking (Matador) and Los Campesinos (Arts&Crafts), NO AGE plan to send a few updates and photos for us to share with you.

Safe travels, fellas! Good times ahead. :)

Here’s an update from guitarist Randy Randall: “So, No Age flew to London from Los Angeles. It is a really long flight, one we have done too many times this year. We are meeting up with Times New Viking and Los Campesinos. We are rockin’ the guitar case and backpacks from Incase. They are really comfortable and make hectic traveling easier and less back breaking. When we landed in London we had to take a coach to Brighton to meet up with the other bands. This tour already feels like planes, trains and automobiles.”
