The wedding is on Saturday. I'm not making that drive twice for Pretty Lights.

If Pretty Lights does indeed close the main stage on Friday we'll be heading straight to the pit upon entry and not leaving until the madness has run its course.

I'm going to bring twice as many glowsticks this year.

To be honest, this is in my top 5, maybe even top 3. I'm not even a huge EDM fan, I just know that this dance party is going to be nuts! Main Stage dance party/glowpocalypse. Hell yes!

Forgive my ignorance, but when did Pretty Lights become this fucking big? Or is this just proof that the kids will dance to absolutely anything with flashy lights on the main stage?
I'm thinking it's the latter. Only someone like the mau5 is truly deserving (popularity-wise) of headlining a night at Sasquatch.

That's the one thing I'm having a hard time understanding with the lineup. I could see him headlining Bigfoot, but the main stage? There's several bands billed lower than him that probably have more draw, unless everyone going to Sasquatch these days goes for the electronic shit. Regardless, it'll be fun.

Pretty Lights is a bigger draw than Death Cab, Wilco and Ween

Pretty Lights is a bigger draw than Death Cab, Wilco and Ween For the record, I immediately regretted saying this the second after I posted it. I'M NOT EDITING IT BECAUSE I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT PRETTY LIGHTS ALRIGHT?

Pretty Lights is also headlining Wakarusa so it doesn't surprise me that he grabbed a headlining slot here. Much like Bassnectar he's been playing dedicatedly building his fan bass with a ton of shows both small, large, and festival. Much classier and more original choice than Skrillex or Deadmau5. Mau is meh compared to other EDM artists that I consider top tier.

No. Pretty Lights is far more of a musician than Deadmau5 ever will be. Some tracks on Random Album Title had some interesting build ups and progressions but Deadmau5 is a fad beyond that. Pretty Lights' soulful electro glitch hop will lend its sound to the Gorge significantly more than Deadmau5's minimal house. Glowpocalypse round 2 will be wild. Let's just hope people wait for the drop this time before launching their glow sticks.

Congratulations. You missed my point entirely.
In the future, don't be afraid to read the words inside the parentheses. They are there for a reason!

I guess Snacks just decided this was the year for an electro headliner and the options are pretty slim as far as crossover appeal goes. The Pretty Lights/Girl Talk combo is way better than just about anything else i can imagine

I see Girl Talk as a late night against/at the end of Bon Iver or Jack White.
