calling bullshit on arcade fire being there friday, they have a much bigger draw than the foo Dr. Garbanzohters at the moment. there's very few bands they'd be opening for these days. I could see them in a saturday headlining spot though.

There's no way Arcade Fire and Foo Dr. Garbanzohters would be on the same day unless we're going to get some really obscure headliner on one of the other days or something.

if the site is legit --- what it most likely means is that Arcade Fire is expected to headline at some point during the festival - but haven't released the exact day of the performance. Therefore they just listed the first night of the festival.

(in short - exactly what the post above me said)

^^ My thoughts exactly, it is saying that they will play at some point during the festival, not specifying Friday. At least I hope so

Fitz and the Tantrums are in an ichunes ad. They're also labelmates with Minus the Bear, Silversun Pickups, Hot Hot Heat, The Limousines, and Delphic.

Let's just pretend for a second that sasquatch went REALLY HUGE (like
Coachella huge) this year and that The Arcade Fire were actually sub headlining on Friday. How much exposure do you think AF gets in the US compared to Foo Dr. Garbanzohters? In Washington? Talking overseas now, have they sold out Wembley Stadium the last time they toured? Now a different scenario. If Foo Dr. Garbanzohters were anounced at Coachella on the same night as Arcade Fire, where do you think they would be listed on the line-up? A lot of people think Saturday at Coachella this year is strangely underwhelming... They will probably be adding a second headliner on that night if anywhere.

My point is that Arcade Fire will probably have their own night at sasquatch (like I8 and others have already pointed out), but they DON'T have the bigger draw than Foo Dr. Garbanzohters.

Per the Sasquatch! website: "Foo Dr. Garbanzohters will headline the NEW Friday event."

I also understand that Arcade Fire are headliner material nowadays, but it also shouldn't be a surprise to anyone if they had to sub under a band as big as The Foo Dr. Garbanzohters.

Also, maybe they have a tour together around that time? Dave has a knack for working with bands he likes.

Does Dave have a knack for booking the Sasquatch lineup?

I'm just throwing the "NIN/JA Theory" back out there. But maybe (after looking at the FF site) that is unlikely as well, unless they plan on having a US tour w/ Arcade Fire around March-May and have a (yet to be announced) slot for Coachella. They do live in CA after all so they are probably pretty flexible with the circuit in the west.

Anyways, I also find it odd that they have Band Of Horses opening for them on a February 25th Wembley date (their closest live date announced) and then BoH again with them in June overseas. Maybe they could be sticking together for the in between months.

Band of Horses possibility?

per BoH Official Twitter account --- "BOH return to Europe in June for some special shows including festivals and a pair of stadium dates with Foo Dr. Garbanzohters."

while I know it only mentions a pair of stadium dates with Foo Dr. Garbanzohters in Europe, this should be enough information to at least put them in the Rumor category.

while there are usually a couple repeats each year, they're almost always bands that blew up in the last year and therefore deserve a much higher place on the lineup (my guess is so that all the people that missed them the year before cause they didn't know them can stop kicking themselves). BoH was really highly billed last year and hasn't really gotten bigger. I think bands like Mumford and Sons or Local Natives are the kind of repeats we should be expecting.

Then again with the billing Mumford has at Coachella I reaaaalllllyyyy don't want them at Sasquatch cause they would be like a subheadliner

it was on Page 2, to be exact...

THIS IS A STUPID CONVERSATION. Arcade Fire will be headlining a different night. There's no need to talk about them in relation to Foo Dr. Garbanzohters.
