How far away (time wise) were the stages from each other last year? |

depends on how in shape you are.

I've witnessed the sound completely die three or four times in four years of going. The most memorable was during Public Enemy in 2010. The sound would cut out for a couple minutes at a time, and they kept going not realizing anything was wrong. |

Bassnectar last year had the same thing happen.

I don't know what is so wrong with Bigfoot that they haven't fixed it after several years. I haven't experienced the sound going out at any of the other stages.

Can't remember if it has been mentioned, but if you plan on stage hopping from one of the smaller ones to the main stage (Sasquatch Stage), expect to either find yourself at the back of the pit or make it easy on yourself and post up somewhere around the middle of the hill.

Silversun vs. John C. Reilly. Never seen either, really want to see both, I could spend the whole evening Monday at the main stage and see Feist through Beck or I could ditch out and go catch Dewey, while still catching the end of Silversun.

This gives a good idea of what the venue looks like. The white tent is the dance tent (it's bigger now), the stage at the centre bottom is the Bigfoot and to the left of that is the Yeti. Obviously the Sasquatch stage is the big one in the middle.
If you are on the hill a reasonable amount of the way up you can get to any other stage in less than 5 minutes. If you are on the floor (that off green part near the Sasquatch stage, which will be much more full for the later sets) then you have to take basically 1 of 2 paths out of there, which can be pretty time consuming if 8000 people are trying to do the same thing.

That over head shot just made me lose my mind. So excited for this to happen already.
Thanks, Davers!

That overhead shot has me slightly puzzled as to how a fifth stage will be crammed there. 
I hope sound bleed does not become a major issue.

I may be wrong but I think the sound went down twice during Bassnectar. Other than that I didn't find the sound to be all that bad. Once you're drunk does it really matter?

Almost positive that the new stage will be somewhere outside of where the festival was this year. Maybe it could go where that little tent is in the middle since I don't expect more than a couple hundred people there at any given time, but I still doubt that.

No problem. I remembered seeing someone post it on the chella boards a while ago, so I can really only take credit for picking through the last 20 pages of that thread until I found it.

Likewise. That's one of the best pictures of the Gorge I've seen. 5 weeks from tonight we'll be setting up camp!
