I'm still on the fence on buying tickets. I know I would have fun, but still, 300$ is a lot of dough. If they got 2 or 3 more solid subheadliners (like, for me it would be Black Keys and maybe Queens of the Stone age), I would go for sure. As of now I still need to think about it.

I can't see them selling this year out until the last minute. There's absolutely no surprises with the headliners, they're all repeats with the exception of foo Dr. Garbanzohters. They really tricked me into thinking there would be some amazing surprises for the 10th anniversary. It's still a good lineup, but other than Wilco I've seen all the other headliners at least once before.

Haha. Pink Martini is probably the most popular band from Portland-area that no one's ever heard of, even from residents of adjacent states. I've heard of them from living in Portland but never felt like checking them out.

I'm totally pumped, like always, and there are alot of artists I've never seen on the bill that I'm really excited about, but I really have to say that Adam Snacks just gave a giant "fuck you, I don't need to prove shit" to every single one of us.

Every band on that lineup that I care to see, I've seen at least once. Most cases more than once, and most cases in venues not much larger than my house. I don't see the point of adding a fourth day to the festival when you're going to be stretched so thin in terms of decent acts.
GBV: cool.
Lips playing SB: FUCKING AMAZING.
Modest Mouse and Death Cab as headliners? Fucking go to hell. Second- to third-tier acts as headliners means that the undercards are literally the bottom of the fucking barrel. I officially eat crow as of this moment: Foos are the biggest name on the list. Ridiculous.
Funny how Switch is like 'BRIGHT EYES ARE THE BEST ACT ON THERE!' Funny because they're his fucking favorite band, of course he's gonna say that. And of course I'm going to be screaming 'WRONG KID DIED!!' at the stage; hope y'all will join me.

Seriously check out white denim if u love garage rock. They are simply amazing! Also same applies for the smith westerns. I'm hoping gauntlet hair gets added too!

I was hoping I'd wake up this morning and the lineup would suddenly look magical to me. It doesn't. Easily the shabbiest lineup I've seen in all my years of Squatching.

You'd think that because its the 10th ann, I'd have a "holy shit, that's awesome" reaction to the headliners or undercards. I am not overwhelmed by any announcement, though there are bands I am excited to see/see again. There's no surprises this year and to me, that's a tad disappointing.
I think what I'm mostly excited about, however, is getting to learn about the new bands. I got to know a lot of the new bands before I went to Sasquatch last year and they've turned into some of my favorite bands--such as Phantogram.

I was expecting a bit more too in terms of some off headliner. I was actually hoping for EITS to be there, but I knew that wasn't going to happen when Primevera had them.
As for bands I haven't heard of on this list, it's pretty small.
The Young Evils (listening now and they sound like the band from the Juno soundtrack/Best Coast)
Rebecca Gates and The Consortium,Talkdemonic,White Arrows (jnot too bad actually, kind of remind me of Bear Hands),Axis of Awesome,Tig Notaro,Aloe Blacc
Haven't decided if I want to purchase a ticket yet based on the fact most bands stop through Salt Lake.

This right here proves how pitiful our lineup is.

Not saying they aren't bad, but I've seen White Denim in a 200 capacity venue, and I'll be doing the same for Smith Westerns in a couple weeks.

Yeah the only bands who I really want to see are some from Europe who have yet to stop through Salt Lake. As I mentioned in another post, most of these bands I have or will be (within the next couple of months) seeing in a 200 capacity venue
