I would have literally sawed myself in half in order to catch both sets. That said, NOTHING will stop me from seeing the lips this year. I have yet to see them live, and Soft Bulletin set??? Yes please and thank you.

well its obvious that Snacks took a more nostalgic approach with the 10 year anniversary inasmuch as all the headliners have played throughout the years. minus the foos. so people bitching about said headliners can always go to other shows and we'll keep our northwest flavor.
as for Guided by Voices, im pretty sure they're not as well known to the masses as you think and therefore get the lower billing. to sell tickets they need known names that the radios for the most part drilled into the minds and in some cases souls . guided by voices would get a lot of "who?"s by the not so in touch with the music seen crowd(majority, sadly)

Only children and ignoramuses don't know who Guided By Voices are.

I'm really REALLY excited about the Lips, Wilco, Old 97's, Ratatat, GBV, Sleigh Bells, Major Lazer and Black Mountain.
Judging by recent setlists, I anticipate being really frustrated by the Decemberists, but we go back so I'll still check 'em out. And I'd love to see one more decent Modest Mouse show before I die; I've seen one transcendent one and three godawful ones.
Almost all of the undercards are sub-par EDM acts and Pitchfork bullshit; I can't get excited about any of them, really, although I plan on doing my homework and seeing what's good. Problem with this year's lineup is it caters way more to bloghawks than to music dweebs like myself, so we'll see what we see I guess.

Given how heavily they target casual radio listeners, the belt sander. Half the people who show up aren't gonna know bands that aren't played on The End (or whatever ClearChannel/Entercom station they have)

There were at least 15 times when I thought about posting, "Am I the only one who thinks Horned Gramma will hate this lineup?" Ween and They Might Be Giants doesn't happen very often. Last year's lineup was amazing.
But I know you still have the vibe. You might even like some shit you've never heard. I'll go on record saying Bassnectar will blow your mind.

not a clue, but if it at all increases the possibility of them being a late addition I'm all for it.

what i've noticed is that this lineup is super shoegaze heavy this year. (sorry if this has been covered several times by others on the board) And while I enjoy some shoegaze, the genre doesn't strike me as an enjoyable live experience. we'll see.

They'll never top last year's lineup.

Is Pink Martini this year's Seattle Rock Orchestra? And if so, why are they on the Sasquatch stage? And if not, why are they even on the lineup?

I think this lineup would be a lot different if Primavera didn't exist. Looking at that lineup again, I really think Sasquatch is suffering because Primavera has become one of the best festivals in the world.
