Not quite sure what day it was, but did anyone see the group of people down in the desert about a mile northwest of the main stage below the cliffs? It looked like 2-3 figures who were lost out of their minds on acid trying to sneak into the venue or something. I did for sure. Just looked to me like they were enjoying the view but daaaamn they were a ways out there.

Did anyone else get passed a bottle of Maker's Mark during Guided By Voices? I fucking love the guy who brought that in and passed it around. It perfectly represented everything great about Guided by Voices YES! I WAS THERE! WHICH DUDE WERE YOU!? "Hey, I notice you have an RV, I know where I'm pooping all weekend." Holy shit holy shit A+++ One last thing: We all saw that girl kiss Conor Oberst during the Bright Eyes set, right? And we all made fun of Switch in our heads, right? Okay good.

YES! I WAS THERE! WHICH DUDE WERE YOU!? Blue shirt, beard, glasses, pretty much directly behind the dude. I love that so many people were close by for this that I'm sure I sang along with a number of boarders during the set.

I was with three friends at the beginning but by the end it was just 2 of us. But yes, probably?

Davers, we were parked one car down from you! We were the camp with the bright pink !!! flag and the el wire sweatshirts that spelled Sasquatch on the back. I swear we kept pooping into you everywhere this weekend and I totally partied with your friend with the Afro!

I probably saw both of you, I8 and Cbats, during GBV. I was right behind the kids on the rail with the backpacks. There was a dude right next to me on the right drinking a big Corona and yelling for them to turn up the volume.
I'm 6'7". Did I see you guys?
Also I waved at Gunther and a man I assume is Gibbons on the other side of the rail during Archers of Loaf. Were any of you with them?

We were probably 6 cars down and one row away from you guys.

It was great to meet all of you! fer reals! Also, Know, I think I have your headlamp! That would really be something if you ended up with my lost headlamp, because I lost it at Coachella in April. I didn't bring one to Sasquatch this year, so it must belong to another boarder. Also, thanks zombie for spotting me at the glow-po, and giving me child proof instructions on how to get to everyone. I didn't recognize you at first, and really had no intention of being in the eye of the storm arriving so late, but sure enough, I only had to plow through a couple people to reach the crew (sorry couple people). Maybe it's Gibbons' then? I really regret having posted this in a couple sections now...

I love that so many people were close by for this that I'm sure I sang along with a number of boarders during the set. I read posts in the last 100 posted (if you didn't know by now), so I posted this in the GBV thread: I don't recall which thread I read it in, but yes, I saw the fifth of Makers being passed around at GBV. I was impressed someone was able to sneak that in, and more impressed security didn't see it, since the crowd was so small. I guess I was standing right behind cbats and comeswithasword. I almost ran over Weak Shit Superfan trying to help a crowd surfer, but I bounced off his muscles. Drew was up in front of all of us slightly to the right on the rail. Board meet up at GBV!

Not really a story, but I thought this article really summed up the weekend well. Especially with this line: "No one sound defined the artists who made the biggest impact this year ... Instead, the big story was about a mood, a tacit pact made by 25,000 festivalgoers to step off the hamster wheel of competitive daily life and just enjoy: music, self-expression, and the space to breathe." www.npr.org/blogs/therecord/2011/05/31/136818958/sasquatch-2011-bands-in-vacationland

I swear we kept pooping into you everywhere this weekend and I totally partied with your friend with the Afro! That !!! flag was a life saver. I think I went and high fived all of you guys the first time I went to the bathroom and used it to find my way back. I think I high fived Michael as soon as we were set up because you guys were playing all the Modest Mouse and it put me in a fantastic mood. And I totally remember you guys poping in every now and then with the glowing hoodies, those things were badass. And I'm pretty sure just about everyone partied with my afro friend. He literally partied till the sun came up every single night. I did it twice and I thought I was badass. I wish I partied more with you guys you had awesome tunes going the entire weekend, but I think I found your shelter intimidating or something... (also, if you are confused, the word bu.mp changes to the word poop when you post it if you delete the period, it makes for some funny posts)

I havent talked to Iyad yet (pronounced EE ad, he wont care if I put his name on here) but I'm sure he will have some good stories about the both of you.

So many good memories!!! The best was as everyone said meeting you all! I met a good number of you, probably saw even more. I was the kid with the panda backpack. Haha and I'm pretty sure Friendly D is the most loved person on the boards, seriously though best time EVER dancing around with him and womp and j-dawg in his damn hat that kept confusing me because I was so high Bassnectar was definitely my highlight. I love you guys dammit.

So late to the party (as usual)...yes, my brownie was laced or something. I was trippin balls...trust me, I know weed highs and that was NO weed high. My Honey Bucket voices talking through the walls experience was enough to tell me that much.

Maybe it's Gibbons' then? I really regret having posted this in a couple sections now... I think it might be mine. I had one when I started partying with all of you and woke up without one. But it also could of been ground scored due to me being blacked the fuck out. Is it missing the on/off switch?
