M83 , Chromeo, Owl City & Possible Passion Pit, will all be in the Dance Tent.

Whaaaaat? You sure? I thought M83 would be playing the Wookie.

Please tell... where is there information saying who is playing on what stages?

I'm underwhelmed by the headliners this year, but love many of the supporting acts. I want to know the schedule so I can do some planning for the times when two artists I want to see are playing at the same time, etc. Thanks in advance!

M83 is pretty electronic though. I could see them playing either. But in the dance tent would probably make more sense.

On the official site, if you click on an artist's profile and scroll to the bottom, it says which stage they're playing on.

Though that could change at any time.

Hehehe! Thanks for the clue! I'm too stoked for words, obviously.

I think I've been one of the oldest people at the festival the last couple of years, and maybe after having been in the working world for over 30 years I'm just... well... into schedules. I find that once I get to Sasquatch it's totally relaxing, though.

I'm in a band, but all of us are over 50 and the rest of the group doesn't want to do anything but music from the 60s and 70s. I at least convinced them to do "Bohemian Like You" by the Dandys, but we old farts interpret it like the Stones might have in the 70s... sigh... Sasquatch provides a lot of musical inspiration for me, anyway.

Some past highlights for me -
2007: Electrelane, Ghostland, Helio Sequence, Arcade Fire, Black Angels, Grizzly Bear
2008: The National, Fleet Foxes, Beirut, Mates of State, Battles, Ghostland

For this year I'm pretty excited to see Sun Kil Moon, M83, Explosions in the Sky, Doves, Animal Collective, Grizzly Bear, of Montreal, The Wrens and Santogold. JA, NIN and KOL will be fun, but they aren't the main ones I'm going there to see.

Agreed. I hope I am that cool when I am 50. For that to happen, I hope Sasquatch is still around when I am that old

The bands that I have discovered (which I have never heard before the lineup came out) thus far that I am liking are, King Khan and the Shrines (seem like a really good live act), the Wrens (got some good chunes), and Santogold (good mix of different types of songs, definitely this years MIA)

Also, I am patiently waiting for PB & J's and Silversun Pickup's new albums to come out. I havent seen alot of talk about them on here but I for one enjoy both.

Thanks, although I don't know that I'm really all that cool, in that I probably drive my own college-aged kids crazy! 8-)

They probably wonder if or when I will ever grow up, but they will put up with at Sasquatch once again because I will help them get their tickets. Lodging or camping will be on their own, but I help with the tix.

I was hoping for the announcement of a My Bloody Valentine reunion at Sasquatch this year! I know, not likely, but I actually just discovered them and a whole slew of other great "shoegaze" (I HATE that term) bands during the last couple of years... Slowdive, Ride, Chapterhouse, Catherine Wheel, Flying Saucer Attack, SWERVEDRIVER...!!! All fantastic stuff, I am totally stuck on it. But this year's lineup will be fine, whether MBV is there or not. I'd also love to see Robert Pollard at Sasquatch, but I don't think he does festivals. I've been a GbV/Pollard fan for the last dozen years or so.

Last year I staked out territory in the front at the Wookie stage in order to see Battles, Mates of States and The Kooks up close and personal. It was interesting, the kind of looks I was getting from younger people, but what the f. Age doesn't matter when it comes to enjoying good music.

I'll be the guy with the gray hair and the red baseball cap, standing up in front, more likely than not at the Wookie stage, right in front of the speakers. I hope Sun Kil Moon and Explosions in the Sky play on the Wookie stage this year. I think it's the best... the Dandy Warhols were amazing there in 2007. I just wish I had discovered Sasquatch prior to 2007... so much has gone on there that I've missed.

Thanks for the recommendations on King Khan and Hockey! I love the Wrens' "Meadowlands" but haven't heard any of their other music yet. Prior to Sasquatch I'll be listening to them as well as to other ones I haven't heard.

Agreed! Really thought they had a good chance of being there. Although, me being 23, and you being at an age where you've probably heard of them more than I have. I was hoping they'd be there more than anything. I still have a bit of hope they will be added, but I doubt it. Maybe next year?

Haha, this is true. I'm a poor college student though. So, I decided the combination of Animal Collective, Grizzly Bear, Bon Iver, Passion Pit, M83, and TV On The Radio a few hours away would be better than going all the way to Indio to see Sir Paul, My Bloody Valentine, Crystal Castles, Mastodon, and a few other bands that interest me. It's a tough call, but I can never pass up a trip to the Gorge.

I posted this in another thread, but I thought that I may have more luck on this board. Has anyone seen The Pica Beats live before? I just heard them for the first time and was wondering if they are any good live.
