The Wakarusa lineup is one of the best festival lineup's since Rothbury '08 & '09 which I attended.. I made the long trek to Waka last year & it was the hottest ever, 102F with 80-90 Humidity. This festival is great & all about late night, with shows going on until 4am every night on multiple stages (4 nights). This is one of the things Sasquatch is missing.

If you took the lineup's that Wakarusa Staff put's together each year & combined it with The Gorge site you would have the #1 festival in the U.S. Bar Freaking None!

That's right Adam Snacks: When you go after all Indie & Alternative Rock Headliners. You are catering to canadian hipsters. Which is ok if the fest was in Canada.. Bring in more eclectic groups & maybe Sasquatch could top Coachella as being the top festie on the Left Coast..

Sasquatch has been labled as an Indie festival and is right up there with the Picthfork music festival as top Indie fest. Let's break out of our Minor League Festival Shell & move up to the Big Leagues.

One of you said they hadn't heard of most of the bands in the Wakarusa Lineup.. Well, you must not be a fan of live music.. That is one of the best lineup's any festie has had to offer in the past 5 years.. That is, as far as live music is concerned. You must be the type of person that just listen's to everyone's album & doesn't take into account that they may sound even better live. Go see some live shows..

Wakarusa 2011 Lineup Highlights:
STS9
Thievery Corporation (Known for great live performances)
Bassnectar (Best Dubstep in the US)
Umphrey's McGee (Chicago Jam/Rock at it's Finest)

JJ Grey & Mofro (Swampy Blues for the Soul)
Dark Star Orchestra

Perpetual Groove
Cornmeal (Chicago Bluegrass)
EOTO (Best Live Electric Act Out There)
Beats Antique (Belly Dancing Music)

i for one am ready for the transition from a minor league festival to a major league one. Will this transition include a new venue, more expensive tickets, or will we just cram twice as many people into the gorge?

The fest may not be IN Canada, but luckily for Canadian hipsters it is close to Canada. Thanks Adam Snacks, for not hosting this festival in Arkansas!

People who calls a festival a 'festie' are the kind of people who don't mind if most of the acts they are paying to see sound more or less exactly like the hundreds of drum circles they leave behind in the campground.

Sasquatch is a hipster festival, a-hyup! Great for you that a huge list of shitty local jam bands constitutes the 'best festival line-up since what the fuck ever', but if you booked four days at the Gorge with that line-up, Sasquatch would go bankrupt in half a weekend.

Not even sure what that means, but uh fuck you dude anyway. You're giving hippies a bad name, quit it with that shit. And what's with all the aggression towards the Canadians?
