Fun Fun Fun Fest is like Austin’s little secret music festival. Everything is bigger in Texas, so a “little” music festival still means it needs a roadmap and a hand guide. With 3 days and 4 stages, Fun Fun Fun Fest 2010 may be the funningest festival ever–especially if you like electronic, indie, hip-hop, metal and comedy. And since the festival includes more emerging artists than you can shake a stick at, it can be overwhelming. That’s why we’ve asked some of our favorite peeps in Austin to help interpret the line-up by sharing their Fun Fun Fun Fest 2010 Picks!

Like a bad case of crabs that you just can’t get rid of, our favorite party team, Jill Sorrels and Aaron Berkowitz from Knuckle Rumbler, are back to give their festival picks…again. With parties that span the gamut from hip-hop to indie to electro and dance, these guys know how to have fun. To quote an intro I wrote last year:

kinda like if your friend had a house party with a bomb sound system, invited all your friends, booked the dopest DJs and some kick-a bands, and then blew out your eardrums

If you are into dancing, hip-hopping, bouncing or any other derivative of shakin your ascot, then you’ll love their picks.
