That being said, I love the lineup. It certainly pales on comparison to some of the other ones this year for sure, but as far as festivals in the PNW goes it reigns supreme once more. I plan on Sasquatch always being the one festival I go to so long as I'm in the PNW. If money permits me to go to another as well, then even better.

Very well said on the first point Dr. Garbanzo and I totally agree on the second. I'm definitely more excited about this lineup than I was for last years and for a couple other years as well. I think it's a mix of you all introducing me to a lot of music in my time on this board as well as it just being a really solid lineup. This is the first year where I have almost no gaps in the schedule which I think is pretty awesome.
I really don't know what this guy has against it except that it's not his cup of tea, in which case I think it's pretty silly to come onto the Sasquatch message board every two weeks and try to rally us to his cause. The lineup is personal preference. Everything else (food, shower squalor,ridiculous amounts of advertising) is common and thus fair game.

One of my good friends and part of my sasquatch crew this year also went to coachella and came back saying that while it was amazing how organized it was, the experience was nothing comparable to sasquatch. Subjective of course, but you get the idea. In my mind it speaks to the overall Northwest US/Canadian mentality as opposed to...everywhere else.

I agree about Bon Iver and Pretty Lights as headliners, but the rest of the lineup is their strongest yet. So much I want to see.

In the last 2 years I attended Coachella, Outside Lands, and Sasquatch. Treasure Island too but I don't know how much that one counts as a big festival. They were all great, but Sasquatch has been my favorite. Which is why I chose to go again this year over Coachella.

Is Feist going to be playing with an orchestra, or was that just a Coachella thing?

This year's lineup is the best by a long shot since I started going in 2008. Sorry they didn't book Kings of Leon or Blink 182 so you'd have your dream lineup.

I find basically everything you say to be way off in my opinion. And next time why not put that all in one post instead of 5 separate ones.
However I do agree with this. I don't know how they get away with saying it's sold out only to release a shit-ton more tickets nearer to the festival.

My take is that you call the thing sold out to make the folks who didn't purchase tickets but were considering going feel left out. Then, low and behold...MORE TICKETS!
Anyway, who gives a fuck whether the festival sells out or not? I sure don't. The fact is that if you want to go and it hasn't sold out your in luck and if you had already purchased a ticket your set regardless of how many additional tickets are sold.

Nah, I'm on the other side on this one. Sasquatch isn't even in the same league as Coachella. Not even close.
I fully plan on going to Coachella regardless of lineup, but Sasquatch is totally based on the lineup. Happens that I love this years lineup. I think it's fantastic.

This. I have been to the last 5 Sasquatches, and the experience outweighs any potential "lineup advantage" you think those "other festivals" have. Fuck 'em. You can't organize nature, man.
