I fucking hate ferrets! I don't know.. I'm torn by all these rumors. It's ripping me apart. Your user name reminds me of being 19 and obsessed with all of the Ænima era tool mythology.

I would have had to be a little disappointed about that. He has some really great songs, but he has many that are a little generic and boring. Kind of hit or miss.

He played for the first time with his new light setup this summer at bonnaroo, so it shows that he can put on an awesome show without his crazy setup because he has been touring for a few years without it. Some of his music I see can be viewed as "simple" but there isn't a song of his that I don't thoroughly enjoy. He played some new downtempo songs at snowglobe that were borderline auditory orgasms. But just like all kinds of music, not everyone will enjoy it.

Man, nobody liked my Rip Torn joke. And yes, I definitely got the name from Tool mythology. Haha, glad someone picked that up. It has been associated with me as a chat user name or whatnot since I was 17 (I'm 32 now), and it wouldn't be right to let it go now. I'm Cody, and this is my second Sasquatch coming up (first was 2006), and I'm stoked you all have a board for it.

Definitely off-topic. Do you guys remember the freakish hail storm? That had to be the worst I've ever witnessed!

I feel like there is an attempted joke here but I don't get it Hailstorm was nuts. The Constantines kept playing until they lost power and it was amazing. When I turned around there were only like 50 of us still in front of the stage cause everyone else fled for cover.

That day was the only day I've ever had re-entry at the gorge.

In the age of internet trolls and fake posters, "OMG, that hail storm was nuts," seems like a more appropriate conversation starter. Asking a couple regulars who stated they were at Sasquatch 2006, "do you remember the hail storm?" is like asking someone who stated they lived in Hawaii in 1941 if they remembered the attack on Pearl Harbor.

The hail covered the ground like snow on main stage/hill. It was brutal. The first band on after the storm was The Tragically Hip and they were making fun of the crowd for sitting through it. Everyone tried to huddle into the "covered" food place that sold hot dogs and even with tons of umbrellas the crowd was soaked. It had to have lasted 20 or 30 minutes. That was the day I knew that I could never like TTH. The Shins followed and basically were really thankful so many people stayed and talked about how they hadn't seen anything like it. They were very nice and made up for TTH. Bastards.

This is why Know gets paid the big bucks.

Black Keys are looking less likely, as they have dates in the NW (Portland, Seattle, Vancouver) in early May, then wrap up the tour in Milwaukee.
They are playing big arenas this time, so its unlikely they'll do Squatch so close to those dates.

Snow Patrol just announced a Seattle date for May 1st. Yet another band I thought would be at Sasquatch very likely won't be.

They were very nice and made up for TTH. Bastards. I was there, in front of front row photographing them. They didn't make fun of crowd for sitting through the hail. In fact, the opposite is true. Gord started the set by thanking the crowd for hanging around. He then ranted about the hail throughout the first song, Grace Too, going on about how impressed/proud he was of the crowd for sitting through the worst hail storm he'd ever seen. He later complimented the crowd again on being real "music fans". You obviously missed the point. By the way, how long until the At the Drive-In rumors start?
