Since the lineup is out, what do you all think?
I know they will add more bands, maybe even another headliner?
I think the line up is alright right now, I only really like a few of them, but I think it should be good shows all around, so currently yeah unless I get a really good ride +money for coach

If i didn't love The gorge so much, i probably wouldn't be going this year. There aren't nearly as many "big names" bringing me there this year. I'm only really really excited about 2 of the bands, where as there was a good 15 for me last year.

Last year, I knew about less than 5 of the bands before the line up was announced, and it was still the best weekend I've ever had. Hell yes, I'm going, and I'm sure it will be great.

the lineup is kind of a let down compared to last year (especially KOL and ben harper headlining) but i'll still be going because the sub-headliners are pretty solid and the overall gorge experience is hard to beat.

of course I will be going. I also go cause it is the gorge and as many of you know, the gorge and some good drugs are way fun, I would go regardless of the bands. I just hope they add a few more really good ones!!

does the fact that the actual site is not up mean anything. Like I saw that page last night and it looked done , so can we really call it confirmed if thats not up, or was there some radio station thing that I'm not aware of.

cool so its been announced i guess I'm kinda slow, but this might be a stupid question but.....why is the website not up, is it just me or is that weird, cause the coachella one changed like right away after the announcement.

Nope, probably not going this year. Too many bands overlapping with Bonnaroo and SXSW; I can't justify making a trip out there just to see them all again.
Have fun, y'all! If I were going, I wouldn't miss:
Jane's Addiction
Erykah Badu
Fleet Foxes
TV on the Radio
Bon Iver
The Avett Brothers
Calexico
Grizzly Bear
Mugison
Blitzen Trapper
Monotonix
King Khan and the Shrines
AA Bondy
Black Moth Super Rainbow
The Dodos
Viva Voce
Horse Feathers
Zach Galifiankis

I will probably go only on sunday. Not even for Janes. It was Nine Inch Nails that got me to come my first Sasquatch since they are my all time favorite band I wouldn't miss them.
So just Sunday but nothing more. Unless the PJ rumor for Monday is true.
