You didn't hear? I thought this was common knowledge by now? Sasquatch is having a theme Saturday called, "This IS 1992." I'm not sure if they will keep the word "is" capitalized, but the lineup IS as follows:
Main Stage: Pearl Jam / Queen with Paul Rodgers / House of Pain / Hammer / TC (without the L) / Spin Doctors / Arrested Development / Bobby Brown (sponsored by Coca-Cola) / Color Me Badd
Wookie Stage: Boys II Men / En Vogue / Sir Mixx-A-Lot / Shabba Ranks / Mr. Big / Christopher Cross (Kris Kross canceled) / Shai / Vanessa Williams
Yeti Stage: Right Said Fred / C + C Music Factory / CeCe Peniston (a back to back of C C, I say Si Si) / Sophie B. Hawkings / Eric B. & Rakim / Wreckx-N-Effect / John Secada
Special acoustic sets to be held throughout the day at the three main shitters by Richard Marx, Billy Ray Cyrus, and The Heights featuring Jamie Walters.
The main stage will be hosted by America's Funniest Videos staple, Bob Saget. The Wookie will be hosted by Mike Tyson (keep him away from Vanessa Williams, eh? And those gals from En Vogue, yikes), and the Wookie will be hosted by Ross Perot.
They've got tee-shirts made and everything. Try doing a bit of fucking research before spouting off some some ignorant crap like that. |

That was pure genius!! Too funny, and I ask this with much repsect, but did you come up with this on your own? Cause it is really funny and good!! |
|
I started writing it off the top of my head, until I realized I needed some one hit wonders to cover the Yeti stage, so I enlisted the help of Google. I then just decided to go with accuracy, so the lineup is 100% comprised of bands/artist who were relevant in 1992 (same with the hosts). Glad ya'll liked it.

What? Those bands are lame, especially considering this isn't 1999.

Seems like there was some criticism of last year's lineup due to the fact so many of the bands had played previous 'Squatches. Personally, I think that's something they need to watch out for, cause it's one way for a fest to get stale in a hurry (especially for those of us who've been to virtually all of them). Therefore, I think (and hope) they avoid the Modest Mouses, Neko Cases, and Ozomatlis of the world and get some new blood to the Gorge. I look at any currently hot or established alternative / indie bands they haven't played Sasquatch in the past as prime suspects. Some of you have already mentioned a bunch of them (Dan Deacon, Sonic Youth, Franz Ferdinand, Animal Collective, Vampire Weekend, etc..)
Other Sasquatch Newbies I'd like to see: LCD Soundystem No Age Deerhunter Girl Talk Les Savy Fav Q-Tip (always some good hip-hop, and his album last year was great) White Denim Times New Viking Pinback Of Montreal Jesus Lizard (reunion tour) Caribou
Some repeats are inevitable (and desirable), but here's to hoping the grand majority of bands will be playing their first Sasquatch.

Of Montreal would be good add, MGMT would be the perfect band for Sasquatch, Im banking on them being there. Metric, Sam Roberts (there in 2006), Girl Talk and T.V on the Radio (2006) would also be sick for this year

Neil Young and Pearl Jam would be amazing. Separate performances and then a collaboration performance...o to dream.
The Who and Pearl Jam would be spectacular too.
I would love to see NIN make an appearance again, they always put on a great show. Maybe have Explosions in the sky play at sunset prior to NIN...I love dreaming
Really hoping to see MURS, never seen him live before.
Be fun to see Guns n Roses at Sasquatch. An Everclear reunion would be cool to see.
Hopefully when they finally announce Coachella, there will be some good clues of possible performers. |

It's called Sasquatch! Music Festival, not SuckFest.

Minus GNR and Everclear, that's a good dream line up.

I wouldn't mind if Arcade Fire or The Spree or The FLAMING FUCKING LIPS played every single year.
My issue with last year was truly awful bands like The Mars Volta and well-known bands like REM and The Cure which played shitty sets.

How similar have Coachella and Sasquatch's lineups been in the past? There are a lot of bands on there that I love.

I'd say there tend to be a good number of cross-overs. Not a carbon copy mind you, but some good clues.

there will be some cross over but don't expect that to mean we're getting McCartney or anything. Usually the mid-level bands are the ones that end up crossing over so I'd say it'd be good to bet on Franz, Band of Horses, yeah yeah yeahs, Tv on The Radio, etc. I'm scared and excited about this because often times the second listed band on the coachella lineup could be a headliner at sasquatch so it's possible we could get Thievery Corperation (uhg) or My Bloody Valentine (amazing).
Anyway, the only thing to really get out of the Coachella announcement is who is touring festivals this summer. A festival like Bonnaroo is gonna have a lot more crossover because it's so much bigger.

I would hope HOB or Live Nation, or whom ever puts this on, takes a look at these boards. There are some very good suggestions. I still like my list though: Girl in a Coma Pela Soundgarden (reunion would be awesome, but not holding our breath) Pearl Jam Schoolyard Heroes Justice Pride Tiger Theo and the Skyscrapers The Donnas Devotchka( it's a good bet, they'll be on the bill next year.) The B52's - would be an awesome headliner
Ghostland Observatory- could play the main stage easily opening for another headliner, yes, as long as it's dark, by the time they go on. They've headlined at ACLF before and are easily able to do it. But, yes, it has to be night time
LCD Soundsystem Dame Lady Sovereign Missy Elliott Mute Math The Knife
Siouxie - could definitely headline. She does have a new album out too. Sparta The Prodigy - they have new record coming out. Huski Meghen Toohey - California solo/indie artist Lucid Nation (SF band) The American Professionals (SF band:ex Dead Kennedy's, Gits members) The Birthday Massacre Against Me The Streets The Kills Rage Agains the Machine David Bowie Morissey Nashville Pussy The Reverend Horton Heat Prince Weezer (only cause they have started a tour and will most likely be touring through next year) The 5,6,7,8's. Remember them? The all female band from, Kill Bill the movie. The Dresden Dolls !!! Zombie Girl The Subways Flogging Molly My Bloody Valentine (Could seriously headline) Backyard Babies
I agree with some one on here that mentioned, something about not having bands that have played the previous year, play the following year. There are a slew of good acts around the world, that are ready for a festival of this magnitude. I do hope the promoters take a look at this board? But, they probably don't. >:/
I guess that's it for now. Pretty good list. imo

What they need to do is stick Ghostland on the mainstage AFTER the headliner. Give a little late night treat to groove to before returning to camp!

I'd love to see Deerhoof there. and King Khan (and his friends the Black Lips, for that matter)
And as far as I'm concerned, Arcade Fire can play there every single year.
