Weekend Music Preview: Fun Fun Fun Fest Special!

GoGirlsMusic.com presents the 9th annual GoGirlsMusicFest this Friday evening at Momo’s. Some of Austin’s most talented female musicians, including Sara Hickman, Breanna Fye, gfire, Ginger Doss, and Shelly Knight, will take the stage at this event that benefits the United Network for Organ Sharing. The Mad Decent Tour featuring Diplo conveniently lands in Austin on Friday. We have been informed that there will be dancing pizza on stage at this show at Emo’s. Diplo recently dropped his first EP in over two years -- purchase Blow Your Head Out on vinyl via Blue Collar Distro.

One of our favorite Central Texas DJs, DJ Jester The Filipino Fist brings the post Fun Fest activities to Beerland on Sunday night. DJ Jester’s beats ‘n’ mixes will precede a special performance by Joe Jack Talcum (Dead Milkmen). We have enjoyed the Jester’s anecdotes in the past -- we recently found out that he was pen pals with Joe back in the day! Legendary stuff!
