Thanks for the schedule, doumak. I haven't been able to access the Sasquatch site all day (until Sufjan posted the link directly to the schedule page) so this was my first look at what bands would be playing what days, let alone on which stage.

I kind of assumed that there will be a few more bands on Friday since the door is at 3. If the bands started playing at 4 ish, wouldn't that allow for couple more bands on each stage? Maybe I'm being too optimistic I hope you're right and they do something different to that skimpy Friday schedule. Plus the lack of diversity (aside from DFA and FF) in the bands is a huge letdown. Its almost like they just want the punk rock crowd on Friday.

Friday is the night you get raging drunk and rock the fuck out; Saturday night is for psychedelics. They structure just about every festival that way.

Seriously, if the main stage has no real conflicts on Friday night then DFA into Foo will just be a thrash fest for me. THEN I'LL GO BACK TO THE CAMPGROUND AND SHOTGUN SOME FUCKIN' BEER.

Lol. No doubt DFA into FF will be pretty fuckin' sweet. Just not sure about those Rival Schools and Against Me guys... The fest is almost going the warped tour route that fourth day...but if thats what they are going for, they should atleast throw Flogging Molly in there. I hear they put on a pretty fun show!

Flogging Molly is one of my favorite live bands ever. Screw the haters.

I'm pretty disappointed about the Friday situation and am hoping to see some drastic changes. I paid for four days, I feel like I'm getting more like three and a quarter. A more even dispersal of bands would cut down on conflicts. If we yell at them enough will they change it??!!

No, but I have a feeling Friday will get some additions, regardless of your disappointment.

THEY ALREADY HAVE YOUR MONEY, BUT THEY'RE FUCKING STARVING FOR YOUR RESPECT, AND IF YOU MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THEY DON'T HAVE IT, THEN BY GOD, THEY'LL DO THEIR DAMNDEST TO EARN IT jesus christ just go away.

I really hope Major Lazer isn't playing during Flaming Lips. Major Lazer seems like a super fun time but I wouldn't miss The Soft Bulletin for anything.

Thanks for that constructive response. I don't really expect any huge changes, all I'm sayin is that I'm disappointed. And I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that Sasquatch cares about their fans' input.

Our only real input is our money. As long as the festival sells out, there won't be any reason to change.

There are more things to consider than just Sasquatch taking your input. They have already worked around bands touring schedules to assign dates. This has been going on for weeks or months. Your input at this point means nothing, and it's naive to believe it does.

Nor will they change it if you email them. They don't really care about us, they only care about getting their money. There will be bands added to Friday, as will there be on all of the days. But if you thought you were going to get a full fourth day, then you were just setting your self up for disappointment from the beginning. Any research would have led you to the fact that in previous years Friday was a shortened day.

A shortened day should be expected from the start of the 4th day anouncement...How we feel about it doesn't mean shit to them as long as the tickets sell. Just keep your fingers crossed for more than punk rock additions. And if it doesn't happen, oh well... DFA and FF are well worth your $80 + camping.

I'm happy Friday is a short day. Gives me more time to nurse a morning hangover without missing any music.

Not to mention the fact that they flat out told us that would be the case from the beginning. God forbid you actually look at the website, or your ticket. I'm just expanding on your post Hanchy, not giving you shit.
