The Sasquatch 2010 thread.... Official

[sin213]

still no schedule??

[Gribbz]

As a passive fan of electronic music, I don't get DJ sets. I want to hear the songs you record with a new live spin, I don't care what ultra rare tracks you have been digging and want to share with the fans. Ultimately I get it, it's about the DJ making you dance but what's the point of a known act spinning if they aren't spinning their known shit?

I agree to an extent. I think it depends on the artist. I couldn't care less if an artist like SMD or The Bloody Beetroots perform a DJ set. But if it's The Chemical Brothers or Basement Jaxx... I much prefer live.

[chiapet]

Well, sure, but I don't get the point of DJ sets from acts like SMD where they are primarily known for live performance of their own music rather than DJ sets or turntablism, etc. Though I've heard SMD in particular has decent DJ sets, it is really just a matter of having someone famous DJ'ing rather than someone famous for DJ'ing DJ'ing.

[Gribbz]

I keep hearing that SMD DJ sets are better than their live sets.

[faxman75]

What does that say about their material?

[Gribbz]

It shows they're just another EDM act. I don't hold acts like SMD or Boys Noize to the same standard as someone like The Chemical Brothers.

[guedita]

I saw SMD live and thought they were excellent. I listened to their essential mix on bbc and was bored.

[chiapet]

Yea, I've seen SMD live a couple of times and thoroughly enjoyed them.

[Gribbz]

Eh, I don't care if SMD gives us a live set or a DJ set... that's all I was getting at.

[guedita]

They're going to be up against LCD or Massive Attack so I'm actually happy it's a DJ set.

[minogueCOMMAk]

if you know anyone selling sasquatch tickets let me know.

[Gribbz]

They're going to be up against LCD or Massive Attack so I'm actually happy it's a DJ set.

Yeah, I knew I wouldn't be able to see them anyway due to that fact. Boys Noize ftw... right? I've never seen him.

[guedita]

Try your luck on the Sasquatch Message Board, too, Kylie.

As an avid fan of electronic music, I totally agree with this. I have very little interest in people that are strictly DJs. There are very few exceptions to this rule.. someone like Aphex Twin or Josh Wink, I'll watch DJ. Obviously, I'd rather see a live set, but I'll take what I can get.

[faxman75]

Word. I wish Proxy was playing Sasquatch. I've become a fan after that Coachella set. I swear one day I will get to see Royksopp as well.

[chiapet]

I really wish I'd been able to see the whole proxy -> aeroplane -> wolfgang thing. Too much good stuff going on for Friday. ;)

[boarderwoozel3]

SMD throw down a pretty nasty DJ set. True story.

Proxy was definitely awesome. I thought Wolfgang Gartner was better though. Royksopp would be amazing.

Nice. How's Boys Noize?

[full on idle]

I want to go so bad.

[fikus222]

If Sasquatch cooperates, this is my line-up:

Saturday:

Morning Teleportation > Fool's Gold > The Posies > Broken Social Scene > Miike Snow > The Very Best > Z Trip

Sunday:

Caribou > Cymbals Eat Guitars > They Might Be Giants > Booka Shade > LCD Soundsystem > Pavement > Dirty Projectors > Simian Mobile Disco

Monday:

Phantogram > Passion Pit > She & Him > Camera Obscura > JPNDRDS > Hudson Mohawk > Neon Indian > Boys Noize

[amyzzz]

OK, I need to finalize my plans.

1) Who is willing to give me and Jacob room at their Wild Horse campsite and a ride from the Seattle airport Friday evening?

2) Can anyone give us a ride back to the airport on MONDAY morning?

I ask this because Jacob is starting to not want to go at all and sell our Sunday Sasquatch tickets, but I REALLY want to see Booka Shade (and MA and SMD). One other option is renting our own car and getting a hotel somewhere nearby for Saturday and Sunday nights and just driving our own rental car back on Monday, but then I will only see any of you guys inside the festival on Sunday, and that would kinda suck.

Thanks, guys.

[guedita]

The antici-pation of this schedule release is killing me.

[chiapet]

Amy, you and Jacob are still welcome to camp with me but I won't be getting in until late on Friday and am leaving on Tuesday. I think Barb will be staying at the Sasquatch campgrounds with Jordan.

[Gribbz]

It's getting annoying. Hopefully it's being delayed because of all the changes they're making.

[amyzzz]

How late, Heidi? I need to rearrange my flight plans anyway, so I could try to coordinate an arrival time near to yours. I don't need YOU to bring us back Monday, but I am trying to find someone, ANYONE, who can give us a ride back Monday. Thank you!

[amyzzz]

Also, I might be looking for 2 Saturday-only tickets. (I also might check on the Sasquatch boards so you all don't need to suggest that).

[minogueCOMMAk]

I think I have tickets! Anyone with room for me? I might drive or do the. Bus thing again.

[chiapet]

Amy, I'm not sure yet, I haven't booked my tickets yet because I'm trying to find out whether I could leave work early. If I can, it would be 7:30 or 8, but more likely it will be 10:30PM.

[guedita]

My boyfriend and I get into Seattle late Friday night - 10:16. Scott has dibs for one of our WH spaces, but there's still room for 1 more. (2 if Scott goes in with someone else).

[amyzzz]

Heidi, I could just get an arrival time sometime after 7 or 8 and then wait for you, if that works.

[chiapet]

I just booked flights. I'm arriving at 7:30PM on Friday.

[faxman75]

I connect in San Fran and arrive at 3:40PM in Seattle. I fully expect to be waiting for a few hours. It was a free ticket and the best I could do. I may call and see if I have any other options but it's united and they don't fly direct so either way I need to connect.

[rage patton]

It's getting annoying. Hopefully it's being delayed because of all the changes they're making.

I think Sasquatch is going to run a little differently this year, which is causing bands to switch stages and, in the case of PE and Nada Surf, switch days. This year also has more acts booked than ever before. I think they are having a hard time with the schedule, so I say lets give them time. Don't rush it. We don't wanna wind up with a shitty schedule.

[know ID ya]

I agree. If the schedule was ready, they would have posted it. Last year it was ready, but they had to replace cancellations with new acts at the canceled slot. They may wait another couple weeks to get it right this year, and it might look more like a Coachella schedule with lower billed acts playing later.

[righteousdnk]

I'm pretty sure the little fold outs they gave out last year didn't have any of the updates on them too. It'd be cool if they had late night sets this year.

[know ID ya]

Yeah, the print outs were made at the end of April last year, so the late changes were not reflected. That would be another reason to wait a bit longer this year to be more accurate.

[Gribbz]

So how's Boys Noize live?

[righteousdnk]

Boys Noize was pretty fun at Lolla. It wasn't a standout performance, but I definitely had a great time.

[chiapet]

Mark, are you driving a rental or catching a ride with someone else? There's always shopping that could be done.

In fact for those of us arriving later in the evening, I was going to suggest that Safeway as a meeting spot if multiple car loads wanted to drive in.

[chiapet]

HB... :) There are PNW beers and good beers at Sasquatch it's really expensive. They have standard crappy beers in the larger vendor areas as well as a craft/local beer section. My recommendation would be to pick up beer before heading to the area, and then throw a cooler of cold beer into your trunk to drink before heading in. They do not search your backpacks well but might notice a 6-pack. ;) I had no problems bringing a couple of flasks in though.

That brings me to a couple of notes for the first timers:

- The area where the festival is held is in the middle of nowhere. There is not a grocery store in the town (there is one in the next town). The nearest stores are a beer store, gas station, and a couple of restaurants. There is also a Subway in the gas station.

- None of these places are going to have a huge selection of beer, though the gas station has a walk in cooler which has more than just Bud, Miller, etc.

- Keep in mind that WA has tighter alcohol laws AND that you're going to be in a rural area. Liquor is in state stores, not groceries/gas stations/etc. Beer is sold more widely and legally can be sold 6AM-2AM, BUT what we found is that stores (other than gas stations) had limited hours on Sunday & Monday... it is a holiday weekend after all.

[Gribbz]

I'm going to need to stock up on some tasty microbrews. I'm sure Jeff/Corinna know of some good spots.

I think Tommy is renting our car. I'm not sure if Tommy or Jason have purchased their airfare yet either. I know they were looking though. So I will not have a car once I arrive.

[amyzzz]

Heidi always has great info on everything. Keep it coming!

[chiapet]

Dale, I'd suggest doing grocery & beer shopping in Seattle, once you get on the road towards Sasquatch, there is not a lot going on.

We stopped at a Safeway by the airport which wasn't great but wasn't terrible. (Mark, do you or Joel remember where I got the Woodchuck? I assume that was at Safeway). If a place has fancy cider, then I'd assume they have a pretty good beer selection.

[TommyboyUNM]

I think Tommy is renting our car. I'm not sure if Tommy or Jason have purchased their airfare yet either. I know they were looking though. So I will not have a car once I arrive.

I arrive in Seattle at 6:35 p.m. I'll rent the car after the 1st of May then you people can PayPal me some funds. I charge an Internet-leg-work fee, plus my standard having-Tommy-as-a-companion fee.

[Gribbz]

Dale, I'd suggest doing grocery & beer shopping in Seattle, once you get on the road towards Sasquatch, there is not a lot going on.

Yep. That's the plan.

I'd rather hitchhike. =)

[sin213]

i have my airfare. think i get in like 7pm-ish?

[boarderwoozel3]

Nice. How's Boys Noize?

*shrugs*

Don't know. But considering the way so many people fawn over him around here my expectations are pretty high.


I'm going to need to stock up on some tasty microbrews. I'm sure Jeff/Corinna know of some good spots.
Word. The local QFC has a surprisingly good selection of such things.

[sin213]

they were pretty damn good in 07 when i saw em in the sahara.

[Gribbz]

*shrugs*

Awesome. Any good local brewerys in Seattle? I'm a sucker for a good IPA.

[faxman75]

I arrive in Seattle at 6:35 p.m.

Not bad, only 2 hours after me.



plus my standard having-Tommy-as-a-companion fee.

I hear that has gone up this year too :nono

[MarkO]

Awesome. Any good local brewerys in Seattle? I'm a sucker for a good IPA.

http://www.elysianbrewing.com/

I personally recommend them.

[rage patton]

Was just listening to some MMJ. Highly Suspicious is going to rock so hard.

[MarkO]

Have you seen them before Rage ? They are amazing band live when they have time to loosen up and get going.

[TommyboyUNM]

I'm happy they'll have room to breathe at Sasquatch. I hope we get between a 2.5 and 3-hour show. I'll be praying for rain during the set, too. Who is joining me for the set? Josh and MarkO? Anyone else really excited for MMJ?

[rage patton]

I saw them at Pemberton. However, they only had a 45 minute set and it was like, 5 in the afternoon. It seemed like to me they were just getting going. I wasn't very familiar with the material and I enjoyed it, but wasn't blown away. I have a feeling that has more to do with their time limit and the time of day they were playing.

I am really looking forward to their set at Sasquatch. Is hoping for a 3 hour set too much?

EDIT: Just saw Tommy's post. Tommy, where are you planning on being during their set? I may have to join you.

[TommyboyUNM]

I'm planning on being in the pit area for sure. Dead center. Not rail, though. Some place comfortable. I'll know it when I see it.

I don't think a 3-hour set is a lot to ask. They normally play between 2.5 and 3 hours anyway. They played 3 at Red Rocks when I saw them in 2008. And longer than that at Bonnaroo 2008. They're usually up for marathon sets. Hopefully they feel like doing it. Oh yeah, and rain.

[guedita]

Though I'll probably be catching deadmau5 during MMJ, it makes me happy to hear that headliners are given that long of a time to play. I hope that means we get an extensive Massive Attack set.

Do the subheadliners get longer sets? Will LCD be given over an hour?

[TommyboyUNM]

It makes me happy to know that deadmau5 will likely be playing during MMJ. That will weed out a lot of the unsavories (no offense, Cara, you're cool).

Is Massive Attack even the type of band to play long sets? If so then I don't see why they wouldn't go on for at least 2 hours. And I think the very longest you're looking at for a subheadliner is an hour and 15 minutes. I can't remember how long Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Nine Inch Nails played last year.

[chiapet]

Rail on the 2nd pit area seems like it would be one of the most comfortable places.

[MarkO]

I'm planning on being in the pit area for sure. Dead center. Not rail, though. Some place comfortable. I'll know it when I see it. .

I think center pit to back of the pit will be great. The natural slope helps with seeing the band.

Who knows though ... I was close to rail for AF and BB in '07 and had a blast.

[MarkO]

I saw them at Pemberton. However, they only had a 45 minute set and it was like, 5 in the afternoon........

45mins is a travesty for MMJ.

[TommyboyUNM]

Rail on the 2nd pit area seems like it would be one of the most comfortable places.

I don't wanna be TOO far from the rock. It's a delicate balance. But you're right.


I think center pit to back of the pit will be great. The natural slope helps with seeing the band.

This is what I pretty much have in mind right now.

45 minutes is definitely a travesty for MMJ. That's why I won't even both with trying to see them at Mile High Festival this year.

[rage patton]

Is Massive Attack even the type of band to play long sets? If so then I don't see why they wouldn't go on for at least 2 hours. And I think the very longest you're looking at for a subheadliner is an hour and 15 minutes. I can't remember how long Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Nine Inch Nails played last year.

I am betting this year both Ween and MMJ will get 2.5-3 hour sets. Sunday this year will also probably look like Sunday last year. Massive Attack and Pavement will both probably get an hour and half each. LCD will probably get 50 minutes or an hour.

Also, I kind of want to be close to MMJ... but I don't know if I could stand for such a long time. Being against the back of the barricade in the pit area might be a nice spot.

[MarkO]

If they're on their game, you won't even notice the ~3hrs standing.

[faxman75]

I'm expecting 2 hours from both Ween and MMJ anything over will be bonus.

[clumsy342]

..so glad there won't be 75,000 people at Sasquatch.

[faxman75]

It's still sold out though, so I hope they didn't oversell.

[chiapet]

Isn't Sasquatch's capacity in the 20,000-25,000 range? That's going to so nice after crowdchella.

[rage patton]

Sasquatch is 22,000. Sunday in 08 and 09 were both sold out and neither felt too crowded. Monday in both 08 and 09 felt basically empty.

[amyzzz]

ooooh I forgot that deadmau5 will be there. (sorry but deadmau5 > mmj)

[TommyboyUNM]

deadmau5 > MMJ?

How do you even compare? It's just about what genre you like more. They are almost polar opposite artists.

[fikus222]

I'll be in the dance tent with the Very Best and Z-Trip...I might wander by Deadmau5, just to see if his light/stage set-up is like his one at Coachella. MMJ will prolly get a glance after the dance tent closes.

[chiapet]

I'll watch some of MMJ but not hour(s) worth. Probably the mau5 for me too. Sorry, Tommy.

[rage patton]

Im hoping my Saturday goes

Fool's Gold->some other stuff->Broken Social Scene->The Very Best->Vampire Weekend->MMJ

[boarderwoozel3]

Ugg. 1 hour of Deadmau5 feels like 3.

[TommyboyUNM]

Haha I don't care, Heidi. It's about what you like better. I'm not trying to talk anyone into seeing My Morning Jacket.

I'm just saying you can't really compare the two because they are completely different. I totally understand if someone wants to watch deadmau5 instead of MMJ. Sometimes you like electronic more and feel like dancing.

[chiapet]

Jeff, I didn't say I had the intention of seeing even an hour of Deadmau5 either. I get antsy and wander :)

[faxman75]

I plan on watching MMJ Tommy. I'll be up close for the set before them which I assume is the National. Speaking of witch if anyone is interested.

Their new album High Violet is streaming.

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/25/magazine/25national-t.html#audio

[righteousdnk]

I have a feeling my Sasquatch schedule is going to be littered with conflicts. At least it's extremely easy to get around the stages.

[TommyboyUNM]

I assumed Vampire Weekend would be playing before MMJ. I plan on seeing The National, though, Mark. I have a feeling I'll enjoy them live. Seems like their music might pop out more to me. The new album is on my iTunes. I'm going to listen to it in the next couple of days. Maybe even tonight, though I'm pretty tired.

[faxman75]

Yeah, I forgot about VW.

[rage patton]

I have a feeling I will be missing The National for The Very Best.

[guedita]

I want to see deadmau5 but an hour of him is probably enough for me. (We'll see, though). So I still hope I'll get to catch some of MMJ because they do some serious jamming live, right? Also, I hope I'm not being naive in assuming that Washington's deadmau5 crowd > Coachella/Southern California's deadmau5 crowd.

Bloody Mary's at Wild Horse in the morning, right??

[righteousdnk]

I wouldn't say you're being naive but the fact that he'll be on a bigger more open stage will change everything. It was like a mosh pit inside the tent for Deadmau5 last year. Having him play on the wookie now with make all the difference, plenty of space to dance. But yeah, you're probably right, Northwest/Canada crowd > most others.

[fikus222]

Nah, you're not being naive at all. Last year's crowd for Deadmau5 primarily consisted of Canadians who were ecstatic to be there. I like that Canadians have adopted Sasquatch, it makes for an interesting dynamic. Plus, even their hicks are better than ours.

[fikus222]

I watched VW's Coachella webcast and enjoyed it, but I'm pretty sure I couldn't do so in person while still maintaining a straight face :p

Also, I'd like to note, that multiple crowds of people last year refered to deadmau5 as Dead Mau 5, good times :)

[amyzzz]

YES! I heard a couple of douchebags in the beer garden say dead mau five several times, and I had to hold myself back from laughing.

I will probably catch a bit of mmj & a bit of deadmau5 if I get a Saturday ticket. I'm still trying to ease J into the idea of Sasquatch: the overcrowding at Coachella this year really stressed him out. He actually sat out Saturday in our condo.

[chiapet]

Bloody Mary's at Wild Horse in the morning, right??

Yes, we will make this happen. Though they'll be less fancy than the Coachella ones.

[righteousdnk]

Some kid last year started arguing with me when I told him dead mau 5 isn't correct.

But overcrowding really won't be a problem at Sasquatch. It sold out in less than a month after the line up this year and sold out last year too. I'm sure the promoters would love to be able to sell more tickets and make more money, but they probably like more that their festival seems so exclusive and can sell out so quickly. They have their corporate sponsors, they have the ability to book great acts, and have a beautiful location. I don't think they'd ever risk their reputation as such a great festival and oversell.

[chiapet]

Hah. That's the worst you can say of the Sasquatch crowd though. That they insist on calling him mau-five rather than mausss

[fikus222]

This year we should get a lot of M-G-M-T too. They better not bring douche's in their wake.

[rage patton]

... but their name is pronounced M-G-M-T.

[fikus222]

... but their name is pronounced M-G-M-T.

Alright, so that one is ambiguous, but I still don't want to see a bunch of douchie indians running around the fest though.

[Gribbz]

Schedule. Want.

[chiapet]

I believe we settled that one a couple of years ago, they used to pronounce it management but there was already another band with the name. I am okay with people saying that one either way.

The "Dead-mow-five" annoys me though. :D

[fikus222]

Yes please, Schedule Coming Soon is becoming bothersome.

[rage patton]

Their band name was originally Management, but they were going to be sued by another band with the same name... so they changed their name to MGMT, with the intention of pronouncing it "Management." However, when they started getting more popular, people started calling them "MGMT," and they liked the way that sounded so they started calling themselves "MGMT" as well. So yeah... they are definitely "MGMT" and not "Management."

[fikus222]

touche'

[MarkO]

Hah. That's the worst you can say of the Sasquatch crowd though. ........

I can't remember one negative experience with anyone at Sasquatch.

[fikus222]

Caribou is playing Neumos in Seattle on 5/27 for ~$15 and I am very tempted to go...

[guedita]

Posters are up on the Sasquatch page. These will be sold at the festival, right? Some look awesome!

http://www.sasquatchfestival.com/#/gallery/12

[righteousdnk]

That Pavement one looks great, but I wonder why there's none for LCD Soundsystem or Massive Attack.

[chiapet]

I can't remember one negative experience with anyone at Sasquatch.

I have one mildly negative experience from 2 years of attendance (this drunk kid wanted to punch Tommy but was to trashed to stand up without assistance, let alone to throw down), and really it's just become an anecdote about Kings of Leon fans.

[fikus222]

http://www.sasquatchfestival.com/#/gallery/12

Very cool. However, I wouldn't count on seeing these posters for sale anywhere. Last year I went to the Official Poster event at an art gallery in Seattle hoping to buy some of the posters only to be told they weren't available for sale. Also, during the fest, the merch booths only had one or two of them up for sale. The only successful way to get one of these posters is to look up the artist and then contact them with your request.

[guedita]

That is a bummer, my boyfriend and I were planning on buying some of those posters as gifts.

[fikus222]

That Pavement one looks great, but I wonder why there's none for LCD Soundsystem or Massive Attack.

More posters show up in the Gallery as we get closer to the festival. Last year's Jane's Addiction was done by Emek.


That is a bummer, my boyfriend and I were planning on buying some of those posters as gifts.

Good news, the artist's name is listed to the left of the poster and all of the artists that I have looked up so far have their own website and/or online store, so it should just be a matter of emailing whoever did the poster you like. I'm thinking of picking up the xx and Caribou.

[fikus222]

Here's this year's Poster exhibition:

[venturas90sgirl]

Woohoo! Getting psyched for another festival. Can't wait for the Gorge. If its really only 25000 people that's freakin amazing.

[TommyboyUNM]

I have one mildly negative experience from 2 years of attendance (this drunk kid wanted to punch Tommy but was to trashed to stand up without assistance, let alone to throw down), and really it's just become an anecdote about Kings of Leon fans.

I remember him pointing at me with crazy eyes like we were taping a WWE segment. I think Heidi was ready to fight the guy with me. So everything would have been alright.

[PJandBompton]

the Kid CuDi one is DOOOOOOOOOOPE...still thinking about trying to make it up for this...just trying to find someone to go with...

[PJandBompton]

found the CuDi one...buying and going to the festival...fuck it!

[chiapet]

I like the Miike Snow one but don't know if I'd want a Miike Snow poster :)

[oly malia]

can't wait for the set times to come out so i can start planning for this!! party all weekend camping was great fun last year. we got there a little bit late, so we got a spot that was a little ways away from it all and it was easy to sleep every night. going early this year though!!

also, best experience i've ever had camping was there. our neighbors left a day early and hid their extra food and alcohol throughout our campsite. pretty nice!

[rage patton]

I am surprised the set times didn't come out this morning. Oh well.

[faxman75]

I'm thinking of just buying a tent at walmart. I don't trust the airline to get my bag off of one plane and then onto another all the while charging me $50 to fly with it.

[Mr. Dylanja]

Is there no Massive Attack poster? I think it's really cool how they did this. Who wants to trade an h-jay for an A-Trak/SMD poster?

[chiapet]

I'm thinking of just buying a tent at walmart. I don't trust the airline to get my bag off of one plane and then onto another all the while charging me $50 to fly with it.

I've had no problems with this, but if space permits, I usually try to put my tent (minus stakes) into my carry on, so I at least have shelter if nothing more.

[faxman75]

I haven't either but Jason did last year at Bonnaroo so I see no reason to take a risk when buying a tent there will cost as much as bringing my own. I might even consider just sharing Joels, his is pretty kick ass. He still hasn't purchased his airfare yet either. I would much rather do this without checking anything.

[fancy restaurant]

I have an extra tent that I could bring to Sasquatch if someone needs it. It's pretty small, I think it's technically a 2 man tent.

[fancy restaurant]

I'm not really blown away by any of the posters. The SMD one is probably my favorite so far. I'm assuming that this isn't all of them? Where's Massive? MMJ? Ween? LCD?

[faxman75]

I have an extra tent that I could bring to Sasquatch if someone needs it. It's pretty small, I think it's technically a 2 man tent.

Perfect. I would love to borrow it!

[fancy restaurant]

Done.

[faxman75]

If we all want to camp next to eachother at Wildhorse, I assume we need to caravan into wildhorse together. Have we decided on where the caravan will depart from and at what time or are we still waiting on different flight times from people?

[fancy restaurant]

I'm not even 100% sure how I'm getting into wildhorse. I need to get in touch with Holly and work it out, but my current plan is to ride with her.

[faxman75]

Word. Each Wildhorse reservation is for 4 people. I know there were others who wanted into Wildhorse and I though that was allowed?

Ah here we go.


All camping reservations are per car or RV and are for up to four (4) people arriving together. $10 per night for each additional person above four (4) will be collected at the gate.

So those who want to be in wildhorse just need to be able to fit in a car with others and have $10/night cash money to pay at the gate.

[Ardentbiscuit]

There's a chance to win an all expense paid trip to Sasquatch if you sign up and enter through the KROQ Street Team.

[chiapet]

Yes, if we can fit more than 4 people per car, they just have to pay extra at the gate. I think the challenge would be in fitting more than 4 people plus camping gear per car.

I don't think we have to caravan there together in order to camp together -- we asked about this at some point and they'd said they'd prefer that we arrive together (but would try to get us together if we didn't). Perhaps we can consolidate into a couple of groups. I know there are a few people who wanted to get there during day light; whereas there are a bunch of us arriving around 7-8PM and more arriving after 10PM. It would not make sense for us to try to all drive in together.

[amyzzz]

I just changed my flight Friday, so I'm arriving in Seattle at 4:25pm. We will just wait around in the airport for you, Heidi. We are more than willing to pay for our share of camping and car rental fees.

I had to change my flight to be SF to Seattle since we will be in SF for Wednesday Massive Attack show.

[faxman75]

ZZZZ's....I think we may be on the same flight. United?

[amyzzz]

Southwest, from San Francisco to Seattle, faxy. Are you going from SF to Seattle on Friday too?

[faxman75]

I forgot, I arrive a little before you at 3:40PM but yes, i'm flying from PHX to SF to Seattle and then the same route back on Monday evening.

[fikus222]

More posters were added to the gallery today, still no other headliners though. I'm sure they'll be up within a week or so.

[guedita]

I love the BSS poster and now I'm even more upset that it's a bit difficult to purchase these!

[fikus222]

I love the BSS poster and now I'm even more upset that it's a bit difficult to purchase these!

Yeah I like that one too. The designer, Andrio Abero, did a poster for Sasquatch last year, which was pretty sweet as well. He has last year's available for sale, so it prolly won't be all that difficult to track his work down:

[venturas90sgirl]

Scott, I can still give you a ride to Wild Horse. I should be in Seattle that Friday. Ican probably fit one more person too if I need to make an airport run. I got some budgeting to do now that added Lolla to my schedule.

[amyzzz]

I forgot, I arrive a little before you at 3:40PM but yes, i'm flying from PHX to SF to Seattle and then the same route back on Monday evening.
Are you going to that National show on Thursday? Otherwise, what are you doing in SF?

couldn't help but go to Lolla for the soundgarden reunion, eh?

[venturas90sgirl]

Yep broke down and bought them haha! Never been to Chicago so I'm looking forward to a new adventure.

[chiapet]

I think he just has a layover, Amy.

[faxman75]

Are you going to that National show on Thursday? Otherwise, what are you doing in SF?

My flight just connects there but I wish I was following MA and The National from L.A. all the way to Sasquatch.

I will be at The National show in L.A. at the Wiltern the Saturday before though.

[fikus222]

I don't know if it means anything or not, but right now the Schedule page isn't loading, however the rest of the Sasquatch site is working fine. Set times tomorrow?

Yeah, Booka Shade better be earlier, or I'm gonna shit bricks.

[clumsy342]

it's hard to tell because Booka Shade is still billed with the other dance tent acts.

[Gribbz]

Ugh I hope that's not accurate...

[guedita]

So the Bigfoot stage is the solar powered stage.

[faxman75]

My Monday will be spent almost entirely at the main stage. I really like Saturday. This is what i'm looking at so far. Now if we can just get a REAL schedule.

Saturday

Laura Marling
Mumford & Sons
Portugal the Man
Broken Social Scene
The National
Nada Surf
My Morning Jacket

Sunday

Local Natives (don't know much but i'm in)
CEG, Jets or Mike Bibligiliaoiunda?
They Might Be Giants (I guess)
4:30ish? No idea
Tegan n Sarah? Fruit Bats?
LCD
Pavement
Massive Attack

Monday

Seattle Rock Orchestra (they sound cool)
Mayer Hawthorne and the County? (maybe)
2pm No clue??
Drive By Truckers
Passion Pit
She & Him
Band of Horses
MGMT (mostly to mock but i'll enjoy some of the tunes from Oracular)
Ween

[Gribbz]

Looks like I'm going to have more Sasquatch conflicts than Coachella conflicts. C'est la vie.

[clumsy342]

I think I'm going to use this time table to bring with me.
I'm only going Sat and Sun so I'm thinking I'll print a 2-sided card.

Nice work Clumsy :) If this schedule ends up being pretty close, then I won't have any real conflicts at all :D Well, I would if I was going to check out Pavement, but I think that I am going to let the awesome performance I saw in 1995 stand as the one and only time I saw Pavement...

hmmm. that's kinda nice. not wonderful though.

do MA have individual tour date posters? i'd probably just prefer to pick up a wiltern series than the sasquatch poster...

[faxman75]

This is part of an annual poster exhibition they do for Sasquatch artists. This is not Massive Attack merch so I don't think they will be doing individual show posters. The National is doing individual show posters for their May concerts though so I may pick up theirs at the Wiltern.

[andymcdandy]

The only bummer would be having Edward Sharpe conflict with BSS, but Ive seen them three times already.

[invisiblerobots]

The Massive Attack poster was just posted:

http://www.sasquatchfestival.com/imagecache/917b56e414365837604462d08106cbec.jpg

It'll be available for $30 at Gary Houston's site after the show. (http://www.voodoocatbox.com/voodoocatbox_posters.html#)

Weak. That artist is wrong for the band.

[rage patton]

Some comments on Clumsy's schedule...

I have a feeling The Very Best and Damn Funk may switch places though. I know it goes against Sasquatch rules... but the new Very Best album has a song featuring Ezra from Vampire Weekend and on a couple of occasions Ezra has come out and sung live on stage with them. On the very first Very Best mixtape they do a cover/remix of Vampire Weekends "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa." Ezra has also been very open about how much he loves the Very Best and The Very Best were actually just anounced as the openers for Vampire Weekends Hollywood Bowl show. SO, my point is that I really dont think Vampire Weekend and The Very Best will conflict haha.

Also, why put Booka Shade so late? Its weird, but I think they will play around 2:30, like the billing would indicate. Why would they make Booka Shade conflict with A-Track/SMD?

Oh, and I am willing to bet Massive Attack start at 10:30. It will be like NIN/JA last year. NIN 8:30-10:00 followed by JA 10:30-12:00.

[clumsy342]

last year it was NIN @ 8:00 and JA @ 10:00.

but yeah, who knows.. I just like being able to see all the acts on their respective stages and in presumably the right order.
...and I like my template.

[faxman75]

I have really been enjoying Nada Surf. I hope they stay conflict free.

[fancy restaurant]

I really like what has been going on in this thread.

I like that MA attack poster and will buy it.

I also approve of the theoretical set times. Very few conflicts for me. Looks like I'll be spending a lot of time at the main stage.

I really think, compared to Coachella, I'm gonna try and take it easy at Sasquatch.

[chiapet]

That's the way to do Sasquatch, Scott. Also it helps that you can practically see every stage (except the comedy/dance tent) at a time from one of the food areas, so it's very easy to drift and find something that suits you.

Also next to the bigfoot (??? wtf??? wookie) stage there is a little clubhouse thing where they have video games with air conditioning. It seems like not many people ever realize that there is a shaded patio with chairs attached. Nice if you want to get out of the sun, sit for a bit, I've watched a set from there each year.

[venturas90sgirl]

If that is indeed the mock set times, I'll pretty much be parked at main also. I'm liking the theoretical Nada Surf vs. Vampire Weekend conflict, easy decision to make there.

I think I'm taking it easy also, a relaxing music fest between Coach and Lolla!

[guedita]

Aziz Ansari is OUT, but Patton Oswald is replacing him.

Also, Nick Kroll has been replaced by Brent Weinbach.

[guedita]

ALSO...

deadmau5 and Booka Shade are now listed as playing on the Bigfoot LATE stage. I'm inclined to believe that this means that Sasquatch is changing their scheduling format, and that these acts will go on after the Mainstage Closers. Which is awesome. But potentially problematic if the WH shuttles stop running....

[fikus222]

Sasquatch has a hard time keeping their headlining Comedy Acts, last year we lost Demitri Martin (w/o an explanation either).

I sure hope that the Bigfoot late stage isn't going to be the only stage running at that time of night. If so, it will be a complete clusterfuck in that area, since the traffic scheme forces the entire venue to file by the Bigfoot stage.

I'm sure the WH shuttle will make the appropriate scheduling accommodations, if not, the campground is only 3/4 a mile away from the venue.

[Gribbz]

Well, damn. I'd have to choose between SMD and Booka Shade then. As long as it's just TWO conflicting and not all goddamn THREE (Massive Attack), I'm ok, I guess.

Start a preemptive facebook group.

[faxman75]

but potentially problematic if the WH shuttles stop running....

yup. I didn't trust the wildhorse bus in 08' and skipped the late night veiwing of Christmas on Mars (Flaming Lips Movie).

It turns out I made the right choice since the following night they did in fact forget one person.

[rage patton]

Tommy, I really don't think they would cut off MMJ early just so that Deadmau5 plays unopposed.

[Gribbz]

isn't WH only a mile or two from The Gorge?

[guedita]

3/4 of a mile. Start working on your back muscles so you can carry me.

[faxman75]

isn't WH only a mile or two from The Gorge?

All I know is the guy who had to walk was exhausted and a little pissed once he got back. It's also not a fun walk in the rain. It can definitely be done though. Maybe you can notify them wildhorse folks about what time you need to be picked up when they drop you off though. Then at least they would know there were some late night folks sticking around.

[TommyboyUNM]

Tommy, I really don't think they would cut off MMJ early just so that Deadmau5 plays unopposed.

I read this in your calm, reassuring voice. I feel better.

So it would just mean that Booka Shade and Deadmau5 would start later and the main stage would still run normally. Ok. I'll relax for now. I didn't even get to the point where I came up with a clever name for my Facebook group.

[yeahfontaine]

The rain isn't fun but that thunderstorm after the Mars Volta/before Flaming Lips UFO show was knock-down drag-out awesome.

[faxman75]

I'm liking the theoretical Nada Surf vs. Vampire Weekend conflict, easy decision to make there.


I'm really getting excited about seeing Nada Surf.

Haha. Yeah, I think that is exactly what it means. Im guessing on Saturday Nada Surf will be scheduled to end around 10, and then MMJ will start at 10. There will probably be a 2 hour break for the Bigfoot (I miss the Wookie already) and then Deadmau5 will probably start ay 12. Although some people might expect MMJ to end at 12, they will probably be allowed to play as long as they want, like the Cure in 08. The Cure were scheduled to start at 10, and they played until 12:45.

[MarkO]

Still sore over missing '08 but oh well.

[amyzzz]

Meh. I walked at least 2 miles to Coachella on Friday and Sunday, and 2 miles back all 3 days. No skin off my back if the buses stop before Booka Shade.

[Mr. Dylanja]

zzzizzzler, i wish i could grind, i mean, dance with you to tits and acid.

But Sasquatch is out in the middle of nowhere. You'll get lost and stolen. I'd be scared if I were you.

[clumsy342]

WOOHOO! Patton Oswalt!

I really hope I can catch him.
And I hope they make the comedy/dance tent bigger than my bedroom.

[amyzzz]

I'm holding myself back from saying something racist.

[clumsy342]

let it out, amy.

if you bottle it up too long, it will turn you into an even bigger racist.

[amyzzz]

I'm getting kind of excited about seeing The xx again. They're pretty fucking awesome.

[faxman75]

I liked them quite a bit too Amy and will watch them.

and this...


I'm holding myself back from saying something racist.

made me lol

[chiapet]

Mark, let's have perspective, the Christmas on Mars showing was REALLY late. And such a side-stage poorly publicized thing that who knew what the hell was going on. If they are actually running a stage that has a published schedule, the WH people will be on the ball.

And it's really not a far walk. And if you're that tired or lazy, hitchhike the mile.

I think with a flask, it could be a quick walk. :)



I sure hope that the Bigfoot late stage isn't going to be the only stage running at that time of night. If so, it will be a complete clusterfuck in that area, since the traffic scheme forces the entire venue to file by the Bigfoot stage.

I really don't see this being a huge problem. If they angle the tent properly, the crowd can cluster to the side instead of blocking the road out of the venue, it will attract people leaving the other stages (not a bad thing in my opinion), and you know most of those PNW hippies will join and dance for a few minutes before just leaving. :)

remember that time that my boss jsut told me i have to stay behind and board-op our station the whole weekend while every single one of my other co-workers is at the gorge working the show? yeah i do.

fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. cant even catch MA in vancouver cuz its on saturday. so bummed

[amyzzz]

Wait...there's a Massive Attack show in Vancouver Saturday? I must've forgotten about that....Too bad Jacob says he's sick of MA, or I'd try to go to that.

tell him to be sick of MA once their North American tour is over...

most likely, he'll have a few years to get un-sick of them before they return here again.

[rage patton]

I wasn't a fan of Aziz until I saw him at Sasquatch last year. The guy was fucking hilarious. Patton Oswalt is pretty funny too, but I was looking forward to Aziz.

[amyzzz]

I'm just grateful they're playing in SF, which is apparently a place he really wants to visit for some reason. :p I think the new album let him down, or he got sick of it too soon or something. I still adore Massive Attack, but I agree that he and I have been drowning in Massive Attack for years. Hopefully Martina will win him over again.

[faxman75]

I'm looking forward to the live MA show. I must say though, the new album did start to get old for me. I don't play it very much at all anymore but i'm still listening to Mezzanine and 100th Window regularly. I'll shuffle all three albums up and listen right now though.

[Mr. Dylanja]

If I were going I'd be dancing to SMD, just sayin'.

[amyzzz]

We were planning to go over to SMD probably, but I'm waiting to see how good MA will be in SF. And goddamnit, stop talking to me, D.

[chiapet]

I still haven't even made it all the way through the new MA album. Because I put Mezzanine back into my ipod before Coachella. And now I can't stop listening to it.

[Mr. Dylanja]

We were planning to go over to SMD probably, but I'm waiting to see how good MA will be in SF. And goddamnit, stop talking to me, D.

That's just it though, you'll already know how good they'll be. You should START at SMD and then if all the tits and acid isn't up to massive attack par, then go to the main stage.

Just my opinion.

[Mr. Dylanja]

Because I put Mezzanine back into my ipod before Coachella. And now I can't stop listening to it.

mmm mmm mmm, sexy time.

[faxman75]

I will be watching zero of SMD and all of MA. I know you all were wondering.

[chiapet]

Sexy time indeed. I put it on at the airport coming home from Coachella, and tried to get people to dance with me. No one would. Stupid LA. Made me miss SF where you can do (what you think are) sexy dances by yourself in public and no one looks considers calling security.

[amyzzz]

I would dance sexy to Massive Attack with you, Heidi. Listen to Pray for Rain. I want to fucking dance to that song! And I'm sure they won't play it live!

[faxman75]

I'm awesome at sexy time dancing. Just sayin'.

[Mr. Dylanja]

I dance horizontally during sexy time.

Massive Attack and LCD plz.

[fikus222]

:) No problemo :)

[fikus222]

This year's Sasquatch gallery was run much better than last year's :) The organizers provided a list of all the posters and their designer's contact info. I'd be happy to provide this info upon request ;)

The following posters looked really good in person:

Band of Horses
Camera Obscura
Caribou
Deadmau5 (looked much better than I thought it would)
Massive Attack
Midlake
My Morning Jacket (it's sooo cool in person, too bad they're not my cup o' tea)
Neon Indian
No Age
Pavement
She & Him
The xx
Vampire Weekend
Z-Trip

Here are a couple Iphone pics of posters not online in the gallery yet:

The Gallery was missing a few posters tonight, most notably; JPNDRDS, Ween and Booka Shade. I'm definitely going to get the Caribou poster, it's fun and silly :) Also, Dale and Guedita, I've sent PMs regarding the posters you inquired about.

[clumsy342]

I'm interested in seeing the MMJ poster.
I may want to own it. (so far, I'm planning on getting that LCD poster.)

And I'd like to see Deadmau5. But not planning on buying it..

and that Vampire Weekend poster is so simple and kind of clever.

The colors are much more vibrant in person. It's just a really fun poster.

Deadmau5 looks less cluttered in person, which allows the little details to stand out.

I agree about the VW poster.

[righteousdnk]

I really want that Neon Indian poster.

[TommyboyUNM]

I'm pretty sure I saw a Portugal. The Man poster when I clicked on a link in here. I want one. Did you see it when you were there, Eric?

I'm pretty sure I saw a Portugal. The Man poster when I clicked on a link in here. I want one. Did you see it when you were there, Eric?

Yup, they had both of them:

They both looked vibrant and very well done.

[rage patton]

Anyone here a fan of Mumford & Sons? I've listened to them quite a bit over the past few days and I am getting quite excited to see them.

Also, I have been won over by the new LCD Soundsystem album, so they are now a must see for me. I've heard their solo shows are usually quite long, so it just sucks that Sasquatch will probly only be 50-60 minutes and in the daylight.

[Gribbz]

Anyone here a fan of Mumford & Sons? I've listened to them quite a bit over the past few days and I am getting quite excited to see them.

They have some good songs.


So, Jeff has encountered a snafu... he has to leave a day early. Can someone possibly give me a ride back to Seattle?

[chiapet]

I'm sure something could be figured out. Amy & Jacob are heading back after Sunday too (though I'm not sure if they were planning on driving separately?). We should try to consolidate the early departures so we have space in cars coming back on Tuesday.

Anyone here a fan of Mumford & Sons? I've listened to them quite a bit over the past few days and I am getting quite excited to see them.



I am. I have tickets for their show a few days later in Phoenix as well. I really like their album and I heard they are great live.

Yea, we will probably have room in our car for you (the one I am planning to rent but haven't paid for yet...). Who is Jeff? :)

Where are the damn timeslots? They were months in advance last year.
