If bands are added to the bill over time, is it pretty much slated that they're going to play on Monday? Are the bills for Saturday and Sunday filled?
I can only stay for two days because I have to make it back to school on time here on the east coast.

anyone listen to the constantines here? i'm crazy about this band and i think it would be awesome to see them at sasquatch! without the hail from 2006...is there any speculation that they might be added? it looks like their tour is only planned out till early April, so it seems possible

At this point, I'd think any bands that are added would NOT play on Monday. The other two days have less acts at this point, so you'd think they'd try and even 'em up. Just a guess.
Also, I love the Constantines. They were awesome in 06 during the hail. I'd love to see them return.

Monday is going to have acts with extremely long set times though. The Flaming Lips are going to have 2 hours, maybe even 2 and half. The Mars Volta are going to have at least an hour and half, maybe 2 hours. Who knows what the deal with Flight of the Conchords is. And Rodrigo y Gabriela are probably also going to get an hour. Maybe more. Also, I am scared to death of conflicts on Monday. If Battles, Ghostland Observatory, The Hives and/or Rodrigo y Gabriela, conflict in any way, shape or form, I will be very upset.

I know there were strong rumors of MGMT being @ Sasquatch this year? Went down to SXSW and actually talked to the guys after a show. They said there booking agent already confirmed. So I'm not sure why its not on the website.

I am also a big Constantines fan, and also would love to hear them added to the lineup.

I'm sure they pretty much have all the acts lined up at this point, they just keep them private and announce them as the date gets closer to keep excitement and ticket sales amped up

We know that Vampire Weekend and MGMT are confirmed but need to be added. Hopefully there will be one more "big" act added to monday, but whatever.

Another big act to Monday? Monday already has the most amount of "big" acts. The Flaming Lips, The Mars Volta, Rodrigo y Gabriela and Flight of the Conchords... what more could you want? Not to mention, Battles, Ghostland Observatory and The Hives. Monday is easily the most stacked day on the line up and I am scared to death of conflicts.

I'm just sayin that if they are going to add another band to Monday, they should be "big", no fluff

Monday has no room for any more big acts. In fact, I dont't think this line up has room for any more big acts at all. Perhaps Saturday and Sunday, but definately not Monday.

God help us all if The Mars Volta play for more than an hour. If they do, they will still probably only play 2 or 3 half-hour songs. As a life-long Tool fan I'm all about the prog-rock, but these guys really try my patience.

For the last time, people: VAMPIRE WEEKEND WILL BE IN GERMANY DURING SASQUATCH. It's unfortunate, but absolutely true. Every band on the planet has a website these days, or at least a myspace page. If you check Vampire Weekend's, you'll see that they'll be visiting Munich, Germany, while the rest of us are visiting the Gorge.

Do you think the Ryan Adams opening for Oasis in Seattle at the end of summer eliminates the possibilty of him being added? It seems far enough off that it wouldn't, but it could explain why he appeared on the original poster and is now gone.

As a life-long Tool fan I'm all about the prog-rock, but these guys really try my patience. When I saw the Mars Volta open up for System of A Down they played an hour and 10 minutes. When they opened up for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, they played an hour and 20 minutes. I have never even heard of a Mars Volta show shorter then an hour. I can garuntee you they will play atleast an hour and half at Sasquatch. I am hoping for 2 hours. They are fucking amazing live.
