You also have to Dr. Garbanzoure in that Bonnaroo and Coachella are both $260+ and they get anywhere from 50,000 to 90,000 people. They are both "destination" festivals with people flying across the country to go to them. They are expected to have headliners with WOW factor and they have the ticket sale revenue to pull it off. Plus between the two of them in the past couple years they have had Phish, Bruce, Macca, Prince, the Police, Radiohead, etc. These are the biggest names in the music industry (not phish- but their fans are hardcore and it was a reunion tour). So they have to bring the heat each year with their headliners. If I was planning on going to Roo - I would be straight pissed off with KOL, Dave Matthews, Jay-Z and Stevie Wonder. Even though I would love to see Jay-Z and Stevie Wonder. Although, I don't know why people are pissed with Coachella's headliners/subheadliners but I think they are great. I've been to both festivals multiple times and they are both great. I might like the music better at Coachella, but Bonnaroo has the better overall experience.
With Sasquatch, we know we should have lower expectations because the ticket revenue is not there to bring in Prince, Bruce, Macca, etc. But the festival organizers do a good job with the subheadliners and sub-sub headliners, so that it keeps people coming back. Not to mention the pricing is about $100 cheaper per ticket and it is the most amazing place to see a concert.
2cents. |

This should be shown to everyone who registers an account here. It's a really simple concept but for the most part, sasquatch can not afford the "gets" at coachella or bonnaroo. I'm still amazed that so many people are complaining about jay-z. I would kill for jay-z to be at sasquatch (he won't, the organizers of coachella and bonnaroo pay to make sure that their big headliners are exclusive to their event) |

I'll take that as a compliment. 
Yeah, Jay-Z would be pretty bad ass at the Gorge. I'd be happy with the Beastie Boys though.

The nice thing about Sasquatch is that I am usually caught off guard with the lineup each year because it is consistently amazing, but focuses on smaller bands. With bigger fests like Coach and Roo, people set their standards way to high because of they have high standards, but leads to disappointment sometimes. People on the Coachella board are always hoping for amazing artists from David Bowie to Outkast. But inforoo had it pretty bad this year with early speculation that The Stones, Macca or Neil Young would be there only to find out that its KoL, DMB, Jay Z and Stevie Wonder. Jay Z and Stevie Wonder would be amazing, but KoL and DMB are a HUGE letdown compared to the possible headliners. |

Just out of curiosity, are those 'Roo headliners 100% confirmed? Or just really really really really strong rumors? (Not that I doubt anyone's integrity here, just wonder what the sources are for this info.)

Cool. Thanks.
And in reference to people flying to Bonnaroo and Coachella. I actually fly to Sasquatch from SC so I DON'T have to go to Bonnaroo

That wasn't very complete, sorry. Someone working on the Bonnaroo team stated in inforoo that Kings of Leon would play Friday and DMB would be on Sunday. S/He then later implied that Stevie Wonder -> Jay Z would be Sat, but did not specifically state it like the previous two headliners.

holy christ Bonnaroo will be more like Bro-aroo if they're getting KOL and DMB as two of the headliners. i hope the sasquatch planners don't make the booking mistakes they did last year.

Well we know they won't get either KoL (No back-to-back headlining) or DMB (have their own weekend each year), so that's good.
However, I have this really queasy feeling that Jack Johnson will make his return or Faith No More will headline.

If Faith No More headlines my life is set.
I know the feeling, this is the real thing...
Last time Mike Patton was at Sasquatch I had a great time, plus I already love FNM. Also if they happen to somehow get Dillinger Escape Plan(doubtful) and they play the same day, amazingness will happen.

DEP would be nuts.
Not sure if that's Patton or Puciato (I fail) but either way... hell yes.
And whoever said Jack Johnson:
SHUT IT DOWN

That's Puciato, he's a beast. Mike Patton did an EP with them that everyone is hoping he plays again with them someday. Their cover of "Come to Daddy" is nuts.

i'll be making my second trip to coachella in just under a month. 07 was my first time (and first music festival), and with this line-up, im really excited to be going back to the desert!!! i just purchased my three day pass to sasquatch about an hour ago, and am stoked to be going, even though its a smaller fest. bonnaroo just didnt do it for me this year, which i went to in 08 and 09.

The lineup has always been impressive... but it has a lot of complications for me personally... Although that Outdoor theatre, second day I think, has an amazing lineup.
