Yeah, I don't think they will headline either, but I think they could lead into a headliner. yeah I think that would be perfect. although, with their amount of energy, it's going to take the right kind of headliner to follow them. not an easy task.

They did, yeah...I caught one in Honolulu. Good stuff.
I could stomach KoL if they were leading into PJ, I guess...

We heard from Abe Vigoda, personally, that they really want to play an outside venue overlooking a gorge on the westcoast.
They could mean Sasquatch!

This will be my fourth year at Sasquatch! The only thing that's missing every year that keeps it from being on this same level as Coachella is........ A DANCE TENT!!! I say they take the area where they have the Wookie Stage and turn it into the Wookie Dance Cave, huh? They could have some locals like Truckasauras and Champagne Champagne open up each day. Then they could add bigger name artists like Girl Talk, Diplo, Animal Collective, Justice, Crystal Castles, Santogold, etc. My head would probably explode with excitement if this happened. Anybody agree?

partymarty agreed, although I dont think changing the wookie stage would be a good idea. This fest could use a tent for sure, especially for djs. If they bring Girl talk or Justice I'll be one happy camper.

I say replace the comedy tent with whatever dance stuff. Then throw the comedy on a stage somewhere. I like the comedy a lot but it was done horribly last year.

With all due respect, have you ever actually listened to Abe Vigoda? They would never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever play the warped tour. They are more in tune with bands like No Age or The Mae Shi, who are not Warped material. That being said, I hope they make it to Sasquatch! They are great live.

CCoult, in regards to Abe Vigoda, I apologize. I haven't listened to them so that was ignorant of me to say. I saw that they were described as Tropical Punk Rock and made the leap. In addition, I realize that Sasquatch! have hosted a few punk genre bands over the years. I now have a new band to check out! Thanks for being cool about my ridiculous remark.

Did anyone here go to the comedy tent area last year? I never saw the tent. I think they'd eventually add a dance tent. I just don't know if there's any good area where they could accommodate an extra however many thousand people for dj's/electronic/dance acts. that's definitely the area that needs most improvement............ And Abe Vigoda= Ridiculously great band!

This isn't Coachella or Bonnaroo, so I don't see dance tents or jam bands HAVING to be at Sasquatch.

Anyone know/remember when they've made lineup announcements in the past? I'm pretty sure it was like February 20th.

What about the Coachella lineup? When does that one get announced, not that I will be going, I just like to compare the lineups between the two. And in my ever so humble opion, the Sasquatch lineup was WAY better than Coachella last year. Don't get me wrong, I like Portishead, but I would have felt a little screwed over having them in a headlining slot. And to top it off......Prince was cool in 1985, and only 1985.
