Based on the wording, looks promising to have Amon Tobin at either Roo or Sasquatch. Him not being able to confirm anything now isn't a denial and sounds like a festival announcement restriction, at least in my wishful mind. I'd bet more on this being at Roo though, as he played Moogfest and AC Entertainment is heavily involved in that:

I hate to say it, but so far I'm happy with going to Coachella, and am waiting on the lineup before I purchase sasquatch tickets...

That's my plan J-Dawg, I really hope there are at least a few great acts to differentiate from Coachella. I'm kind of fearing sasquatch is just going to end up as a half ass Coachella.
I mean, thinking Girl Talk or Beirut could be a headliner? Yeesh....

Whoa, and did you guys just notice this gabfrab has been around since basically the middle ages in Sasquatch board time? Geezus I wonder if that makes me from prehistoric times?

i saw Future Islands last night in Athens at the 40 Watt's little brother 'the Caledonia Lounge'. I stood next to the bassist in the line for the men's room.
He said, yes 'we will be playing a few stateside festivals this year' - but wouldn't specifically state if either Sasquatch or Bonnaroo were among them.

The War on Drugs are confirmed. They're also playing Bonnaroo. Peelander-Z is out. Chairlift is out but the person said the lineups aren't locked "so it's still a possibility." Metric: "Wait until the festival announces...these emails are getting annoying." Either I emailed this person before, or she's been fielding lots of requests haha. The agents are beginning to catch onto me. I'm assuming they're out but who knows. Looks bad for Yeasayer: Could you do a few e-mails please Artists: Bon Iver, Kathleen Edwards, Hannah Georgas. Electro: James Blake, Feed Me, Pretty Lights, Dillon Francis, Kill The Noise, Knife Party, Rob Swire. Comedians: Duncan Trussell, Ari Shaffir, Bert Kreischer, Tom Segura, Neal Brennan, Dan Levy, Kyle Mooney, Good Neighbor Stuff I'm just emailing people I'm personally interested in, but I do already have emails out to Bon Iver and Pretty Lights.

Rusko is out.
Just saw on the Roo boards that the guy who heard back from Sigur Ros confirmed they aren't playing Sasquatch. Sorry, guys.

Prepare for the worst, hope for something better than the Shins and Beirut and Girl Talk. I had fun a little fun with Girl Talk back in 2009 and in the right state of mind I can probably get into a Girl Talk dance party on the main stage. I'm not through the roof excited with the leaks, but I'm not completely let down either because there is some shit in there thats totally exciting. I just didn't want my Sas this year to be completely dominated by the Banana Shack/Electronic scene and from what was leaked yesterday those are the acts I like the most.
