Joseph
"Run" Simmons and Darryl "D.M.C." McDaniels will join forces
this November.
Run-DMC hasn’t performed in a decade, but the surviving members are planning
to reunite.
Joseph “Run” Simmons and Darryl “DMC” McDaniels will
hit the stage at the 7th annual Fun Fun Fun Fest, taking place in Austin, Texas
from November 2-4.
Additionally, DMC will perform a set during the festival with his live band,
previewing cuts from his new album and running through classic Run-DMC tracks.
To honor the late Jason “Jam Master Jay” Mizell, FFF festival promoters
are working with the group to donate a portion of the proceeds to his JMJ Foundation
for Music.
"We couldn "t be more excited. Run-DMC is one of our favorite bands, and
one of the most influential groups of all-time - that we never thought that
we would get to see play live, much less play in Austin at our festival,"
said festival producer James Moody. "This is as big as it gets and we are
so proud to be working with them."
