The irrepressible Father John Misty will play the El Rey Theatre on Friday, Aug. 26, the eve of this year’s FYF Fest.

It’s one of more than a dozen “FYF After Dark” sideshows in local clubs and theaters featuring artists playing the festival, Aug. 27-28.

Tickets will be sold via a password-protected pre-sale to limit scalping. Register here for the presale. Presale begins at noon today.

In other news:

FYF will co-present a pet adoptions drive on Sunday, Aug. 21, at Moorpark Park in Studio City — it’s not only good for furry creatures, but there will be FYF Fest ticket giveaways.

► FYF has issued a “low ticket warning” for the festival; there are only “a few hundred” weekend passes left, the festival announced.
