|  | Who is the Most Sasquatch Band?
« Thread Started on May 3, 2012, 9:51am » | |
Quick topic for this Thursday: What's the most Sasquatch band? The most Bonnaroo band is obviously My Morning Jacket, but every other festival is less clear. To consider:
1. Does frequent lineup appearances = Most? Neko Case is the most frequent Sasquatch artist, but that doesn't seem right.
2. What about geography? Should a more local band be considered over a less local one? I argue yes.
3. Does a historical connection help? Jane's Addiction would have to be considered for Most Lollapalooza Band, but I would argue for the Red Hot Chili Peppers: huge and yet somehow still somewhat respectable, from the Nineties, good mass appeal and could probably headline Lolla every year without anyone raising an eyebrow.
For the topic question, I think the answer is Modest Mouse. Relatively local in terms of region, popular but not overly so, and has played a few memorable sets in the past few years at the 'Squatch.

If Neko Case was from the area, I'd say she'd be a lock. However I think it's a tossup between Death Cab and MM since both have made four Sasquatch appearances.

Flaming Lips. They play every other year, but unlike Modest Mouse, they've only sucked once.
