    <description>	 Kid Sister is Chicago. She makes rap music and works at a children's clothing store slanging bibs and teething rings. Yes, her hype man J2K of Flosstradamus is her real brother, and yes that does rule. Together they took the Chi-town music scene by storm, rocking parties and causing all around dancefloor mayhem. This was followed by tours with Kanye West's DJ A-Trak (her boyfriend, one of her main producers and co-owner of Fool's Gold Records). 2006 found Kid Sister selling-out shows from Chicago to Paris, including an appearance at the Pitchfork Music Festival. The media responded favorably, with features on MTV (&amp;quot;My Block&amp;quot;), Pitchfork, i-D Magazine, XLR8R, the New York Times, Billboard and the cover of URB's &amp;quot;Next 1000&amp;quot; issue, among others.  Building on the strength of this early buzz, Kid Sister hit the studio and released two singles on Fool's Gold (&amp;quot;Control&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Pro Nails&amp;quot;). Frequent international touring followed throughout 2007, including an appearance at Coachella, a sold out show at SXSW, and a full US tour with her fellow labelmates. Kanye West also took notice, adding a verse to her &amp;quot;Pro Nails&amp;quot; single (which he released on his &amp;quot;Can't Tell Me Nothing&amp;quot; mixtape) and appearing in the music video, which quickly became an MTV favorite.  With her full-length debut on the way this year featuring A-Trak, Xxxchange of Spank Rock, and others on production duties, Kid Sister is taking this.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/music/Kid+Sister&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Listen at Last.fm&lt;/a&gt;</description>

    <title>The 4th Annual FUN FUN FUN Fest</title>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Click &quot;I Like it! for a chance to win one of 2 pairs of tickets!&amp;nbsp; Tix will be given away friday at noon. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Transmission Entertainment is pleased to announce the lineup for the 2009 Fun Fun Fun Fest, taking place on November 7th and 8th at Waterloo Park in Austin. Fun Fun Fun Fest made its first appearance on a cold Friday evening in 2006, offering a unique approach to festival booking, filling stages with talent bubbling from the underground: what sounded great, and what was making an impact, regardless of what mainstream media said was cool. What started out as a show for a few touring acts and local favorites has become a movement -- &amp;nbsp;a festival that fans and bands alike realize needs to be experienced year after year.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Now in its fourth year, Fun Fun Fun Fest has made a significant impact on the country&amp;rsquo;s winter calendar, successfully combining the vast worlds of indie, punk, rap, electronica and comedy while showcasing some of the city&amp;rsquo;s most unique local businesses. It is the most relaxed, laid back and (yet) progressive festival in the market place today, a true urban event in the middle of downtown Austin. Most importantly it&amp;rsquo;s a fest we in the music community want to go to, without all of the filler that shows up at corporate music carnivals around the world. Fun Fun Fun Fest: the fest before the fest ... where you go to see what&amp;rsquo;s about to happen as opposed to what's already been done. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Each year, fans have been treated to sets by reunited legends as well as prominent acts from across the globe at the festival. And this edition is no different &amp;ndash; music aficionados will be eagerly awaiting performances by DEATH, The Jesus Lizard, Shonen Knife, Mission of Burma, and Danzig. Of Montreal, King Khan &amp;amp; BBQ Show, GZA, No Age, Young Widows, Ratatat, Yeasayer, and The Cool Kids ensure that a wide variety of relevant artists will again be on display, and as always, Austin is well represented, this year by the likes of Shearwater, Foot Patrol, Black and White Years, The Laughing, Harlem, and Strange Boys.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; In true Fun Fun Fun Fest fashion, fans can now learn about new music, research the line up, listen to MP3s, interact, enter contests, buy merchandise and more; simply by joining the new Fun Fun Fun Fest (&lt;a href=&quot;http://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=-1&amp;amp;msgid=0&amp;amp;act=11111&amp;amp;c=290918&amp;amp;admin=0&amp;amp;destination=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.funfunfunfest.com%2F&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.funfunfunfest.com&lt;/a&gt;) community online.&lt;/p&gt;
