Deleting tips for having a more enjoyable Sasquatch because it might ruin it for you is pretty dumb. If more people knew to enter the campground from that direction, then the line coming from the south wouldn't be such a clusterfuck and nearly everybody would be getting into the campground at a more agreeable rate. That is, if JiveNation doesn't figure out a way to fuck it up, which they will.

Whatever, it would ruin it for EVERYONE. It's not about me. Word got out on the premier entry at the venue being faster, and now it's not anymore. Tell yr buddies or whatever, but don't post it on the damn internet or it won't be a thing at all anymore.

It actually wouldn't surprise me if they widened the entrance to make it so both lanes could enter at the same time, but that would be almost too efficient for the Gorge. We're all used to complete clusterfucks when any large number of people (or cars) are present.

That's my point...if more than 2 people realize they can enter from that direction, then everybody fucking wins.

Hey they are just giving us time to drink while we wait...If it was all efficient like we wouldn't have time to have entry beers(that said No I am not driving this year, nor have I driven any other year that I have partaken in Entry Beers)

Pretty stoked that John Talabot only conflicts with the XX for me, who I was going to try to avoid anyway after their last Sasquatch appearance. I was terribly worried there would be a direct conflict with Tame Impala but the schedule is set up perfectly that one starts right after the other about 500 feet apart.
I don't get whoever said Saturday was one of the weakest days ever, I have bands I want to see that day from the moment the music begins at 1pm and it lasts all the way to Empire of the Sun almost 12 hours later. That's going to be a ridiculously tiring day of music for me, I count 9 times that I'll be moving between stages. Just hope I'll be able to get myself out to see Capital Cities at 1:05pm on Sunday.

It's interesting how for most people Saturday is either completely stacked or an immense void. I'm in the ladder camp (no belt sanders here,) but my other days are stacked pretty firmly. It also appears that I'll be at the Bigfoot the most - by a long shot.
It's kind of nice, though, to have a bit of breathing room in your schedule. Gives you the opportunity to wander between stages, pick up merch, load up on free shots of Fuze, etc. Or just use those precious several hours to recover from the previous night/enjoy the campsite. Which I'm thinking I will desperately need, considering Friday's lineup.

That fuze was a life saver last year...I had plenty of water but sometimes you need a bit more...

Sitting in that line, letting the tension build while high-fiving random people who are running down the line and the fat guys on dirt bikes while shotgunning beers is one of the best ways to start the weekend.

I was in the "Saturday sucks" camp when I first saw the schedule, but that's only because nothing that I REALLY want to see is happening until 6:30 or so. But after taking a second glance, it's stacked for sure. For the mid-afternoon, I'll just soak it all in - which is good, because it usually takes me a few hours til a switch gets flipped and I enter full-blown Sasquatch mode - and then 6:30-1:30 will be madness. The only gap in my schedule from that point on is a half hour between Bloc Party and Talabot, which will be probably be spent on shitty noodles, binge drinking, and possibly pooping. If there's enough time.

Within eyeball distance of the campground, it was clear that we weren't going anywhere soon, and my buddy started to crack some entry beers. I was pretty envious. Then I started to look around... nearly EVERY SINGLE DRIVER I COULD SEE was drinking entry beers. Cops were standing nearby and obviously didn't care. So I said, fuck it. Entry beers were had.

If there's enough time. Divine Fits! You can't miss that show! Bring the noodles and drinks over to their stage and then poop in the nearby honey buckets for full effect. Edit: I have definitely partaken in entry beers and I drive every year. I always get there on thursday afternoon though so it takes less time to get to camp than it does to even drink a whole beer.

GUYS GUYS. I am so excited this came out this early. I am so fucking happy with Sasquatch this year. My favourite part about the schedule coming out is that it clears up the anxiety I have about not knowing the lineup. I tried to go in first thing every day one year, and it didn't turn out so great. I love that I get maximum afternoon campground time every day, and enjoy continuously constant awesome music after that. I feel like I had a lot of extra time where I was not overly impressed last year, but I don't really see that happening at all this year. PACK SNACKS THERE WILL BE NO TIME FOR EATING.
Weenie, how do you feel about staying up all night on Saturday and then tent crashing until Sunday afternoon? Sunday night also works, but I'm seeing the sunrise on Sunday.
This is what my schedule looks like so far.
Friday- Built to Spill, Run around screaming 'SASQUATCH!!!!' for 30 minutes, Arctic Monkeys, Vampire Weekend, Marklemore /Baauer/Campground party.
Saturday- AKRON/FAMILY, (not sure what to do after this, I know the names but I don't know what I like best yet), SIGUR ROS, Empire of the Sun
Sunday- Elvis Costello / Baths ( I really like listening to Baths, but I saw his SXSW set and I liked it more in my headphones, probably a gametime decision), Grimes, Mumford I guess, PRIMUS 3D!!!!!!
Monday- Dirty Projectors, Death Grips, Cake, (holy shit, that is awesome), Beachwood Sparks, Ariel Pink, The Postal Service.
Yeah I like to sleep. And make a fucking awesome breakfast/ lunch.
