Hurts to drop them, but festival conflicts always hurt. Best to focus on who you get to see, not who you have to miss I guess.

Quit dropping Explosions in the Sky you fuckers.

Instantly made me picture folks continually ripping huge farts in your general direction. Am still laughing at the thought.

For the record, I am definitely not going to miss the Explosion!

Previously stated I would spend at least an hour in the Banana Shack listening/dancing to whomever. Upon further listening I have decided that I am going to the entire Tycho set. Hoping there are no major conflicts.

I have updated the aggregate list. Without saying too much, Beck/Jack White is now contentious.

I love how people are factoring in conflicts on this list when there's not even anything set in stone yet.

Well this way if the conflict ends up being avoided it's a bonus!

top 10 must see 2012
1. St Vincent - anyone watch that Coachella webcast? holy crap. skipping as much of the Shins/Jack White as necessary to see all of her amazingness.
2. Joy Formidable - never seen them before, love the album
3. the D - let's float down the strawberry river! (btw, I fully expect John C. Reilly to make an appearance as sasquatch)
4. Spiritualized - the conflict between my #3 and #4 kills me every time I think about it. seriously disappointed they are not on the mainstage.
5. Bon Iver - I get chills when I think about Skinny Love echoing around the gorge
6. the Roots - put on a hell of a show, and I'm psyched there's something other than crappy music with flashy lights in the late-night set.
7. chune-Yards - love her music, refuse to participate in annoying capitalization
8. Girl Talk - huge party every time
9. Beirut - should be a lovely sunset
10. Beck - a bit of a wild card. I've seen him a bunch, and every time has been different (and always great), so although he's not on top of my list, it could end up being the best set of the weekend.
honorable mention: War on Drugs, Grouplove

top 10 I hadn't listened to before lineup dropped, and now look forward to seeing
1. Here We Go Magic
2. Yellow Ostrich
3. Gardens & Villa
4. Of Monsters & Men
5. Unknown Mortal Orchestra
6. Walk the Moon
7. Hey Rosetta!
8. Kurt Vile
9. Active Child
10. Reptar (though I probably won't actually end up getting there early for this one)
note: this was gonna be a top 5, but it just kept going… nice work by AZ this year (like every year).

top 5 I wish I could see but will probably have to skip entirely

1. SBTRKT
2. James Murphy DJ
3. Beat Connection
4. Mogwai
5. Portlandia

top 5 bad decisions made by sasquatch this year (because I love complaining)
1. Spiritualized not being on the mainstage
2. Silversun Pickups playing after Feist (she was billed higher, but is playing earlier)
3. Silversun Pickups being there at all
4. having Shabazz Palaces perform in daylight (again)
5. the overall weakness of the mainstage this year, especially compared with all the amazing bands on the second stage.

1. Jack White - Playing White Stripes, Raconteurs, Dead Weather, and solo material, HOLY SHIT. To be very honest, I would be happy if he just played Blunderbuss in its entirety.

2. Beck - I have never had an opportunity to see this man live yet. I hope is is not too acoustic.

3. Mark Lanegan Band - New album is a fucking classic in my opinion. It kills me to have to miss Starfucker again, but fuck it, I'll get my fill of "dance acts this year"

4. Bon Iver - Traveling from Wisconsin, so you know I can't miss Bon Iver. Saw them once live before years ago, and it was fantastic. I can only imagine how they'll sound at the Gorge.

5. Spiritualized - He should rely heavily on the Huh album, which is dope. Anything off of Ladies and Gentleman We Are Floating in Space will just be the cherry on top.

6. Purity Ring - Love the three songs they have released, and they're releasing a full lp this summer so I am really excited to hear some new material live.

7. Tycho/UMO/Kurt Ville - Good fucking music. I am stoked to experience tycho.

8. Pretty Lights - First night of Sasquatch energy + dancing + intoxicants = Yes please.

9. Santigold - Fun

10. Beirut - Missed him at Outside Lands. I wont make the same mistake this year!

Prepare to be disappointed by the amount of money you'll be spending to see 2 shows.
