Best of Fun Fun Fun Fest

This weekend's Fun Fun Fun Fest in Austin was a tale of two days: Saturday's Sun Sun Sun Fest, with its 80-degree temperatures, and Sunday's Wet Wet Wet Fest, with sporadically heavy downpours challenging the fortitude of festivalgoers. But the crowds still came out for Sunday's gigs -- of course, it didn't hurt that metal punks Danzig were playing their first Austin show in 15 years.
