With the Austin City Limits Festival (and its rather mediocre line up) coming just around the corner and talk of SXSW 2009 already heating up, it’s a wonder that the state capitol has room for yet another multi-day concert event. But, lo and behold, here comes the third annual Fun Fun Fun Fest (which is partially sponsored by Dallas-based music blog Gorilla Vs Bear), set to take place at Waterloo Park on November 8th and 9th. See the impressive full lineup after the jump.
Oh, and more impressive? A press release from the festival states that more acts should to be added to the bill in a few days! Hell, that third stage bill of classic punk (Flipper? Really?) is enough of a sale for me.
If this is a taste of what SXSW might bring, then where can I get a wristband? –Darryl Smyers

Will you step up to support Dallas Observer this year?
At the Dallas Observer, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $14,000 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of the Dallas Observer, now’s the time to give back.
