Decided to go saturday only , then head over to Montana of sunday and see the Decemberists.
I have basically seen most of the bands on Sun and MON. especially the ones I wanted to see. If some thing speical happen on Monday I may drive back, but as of now Sat only.

But Montonix happens on Monday. And Tom, is there really a Pearl Jam rumor for Monday? I have heard about 18 posts speculating that another headliner needs to be added, which I think is ridiculous. Everyone always whines about better headliners when a lineup is announced, but it rarely rarely rarely happens, especially with Sasquatch.

Considering the small attendance in comparison to the larger festivals like Coachella and Lollapalooza, it's no surprising they never have huge headliners. The revenue can't be as large as those festivals so it's important to spread the money around. Though I still imagine Pearl Jam will headline someday.

I want to go, but if none of my friends are going, I won't simply because the expense of driving from Victoria to the Gorge by myself is too costly.
This was already a year where most people I know were on the fence to begin with. Kings of Leon and Ben Harper as headliners did not help matters unfortunately.

Well what about last year i do believe the lineup had some pretty big names even the cure is headlining coachella so i wouldnt put sasquatch down for the count that its never going to have bigger headliners i thought this year would have been a repeat in greatness since they were a couple of people there and revenue would have flowed in giving them the money to get bigger bands

Most are underestimating Jane's Addiction. They are headlining over NIN, who headlined Lollapalooza last year. NIN is also billed fourth on Bonnaroo's lineup this year. Jane's Addiction will likely headline Lollapalooza this year as well. It is safe to say the first festival reunion for Jane's Addiction would headline any major festival in the US. Still baffeld they chose Sasquatch to do it though.
And who knows, this could be a sign of things to come with Kings of Leon as a headliner.

This'll be my first time out there... hell, it'll be my first time on the west coast. I wanted to make sure I see the Gorge.  Oh, and the lineup is right up my alley.

When the lineup was first announced I wasn't all that impressed, so I thought I would skip this year. However , I 've changed my mind and I'm excited to be going again ( although ,not as much as last year)

Yes!!! we have VIP tickets and are pumped! We usually drive
to Bonnaroo, but this is a bit too far at 1,500 miles. I will miss the
rv, but I'm set up well for camping. Should be great time. 
Look for the dude wearing a kilt and a shirt that says, "rock out
with your cock out." Come over and say hi.
