Has anyone asked Snacks, or is anyone comfortable enough to ask, if "...and more" is applicable this year on Saturday night the same way it was last year on Friday night? Or is Major Loser it. I just can't see the appeal to justify that as a headliner, and what audience was he was trying to draw in that wasn't already satisfied. I just really don't want to believe that's our Saturday night main stage I guess. On the bright side, I can leave early and be well rested for Sunday.

Although the possibility/prospect of going from Tycho -> M83 -> Major Lazer is pretty hilarious. I also wish Grimes wasn't on Monday night :/ I missed Hot Chip last year because everybody wanted to leave. Meanwhile...Todd Terje is my jam today.

Is livenation taking a dump on anyone else? EDIT: Nevermind. Got it handled. I was trying to order a premier camping pass through the website and it kept failing, but I was able to call in and order it over the phone without any trouble. Is premiere worth it?

I asked about Todd Terje playing a live or DJ set and never heard back, so I'm just going to let the dust settle a bit before I engage him again. I'm sure his past 24 hours have been pretty hectic.

I've never done it before, but my girlfriend's parents let us borrow their camper trailer last year (and will again this year) and it was a really tight squeeze parking it in general camping. I figure the larger space and not having to worry about getting stuck way out in overflow camping (I don't usually arrive until late Friday morning) make it worth it to me. Besides, if I'm paying for camping anyway, I'm willing to pay a little more to get premier. Ask me again after the festival if it was worth it.

Rampant speculation re: Major Loser headlining Saturday night: Jack Ü was originally scheduled (like it or not, they would be an undisputed headliner), but DJ Skrilly had to pull out for some reason. Rather than book a whole new act, they decided to just re-bill Dipshit as Major Lazer and left him in the same time slot.

Free showers, better bathrooms, less distance to walk to the grounds (Air conditioned shuttle if you choose not to walk). Went to visit our friends in standard camping and it was exhausting, can't imagine having to do it multiple times a day.

I think I'm just gonna go for it this year hopefully it doesn't sell out before I get my credit card in the mail. I picked a great time to lose it

I'm old as fuck and that walk back at the end of the night about kills me after walking around and dancing all day.

"I don't know anyone on the lineup" so quickly becomes "the lineup sucks"

Hoping Shamir lands a decent time slot. Always puts on a killer show. Will never forget his show at the Croc, especially the drunk guy who crashed the stage during "Make a Scene" and he was totally chill about it.

Holy shit. BORNS is awesome. Right?!?!? I walked past his set at bumbershoot on the way to something else and instinctually stopped walking and started dancing. I ended up staying there for his whole set.

I swore I would take a minimum of one year off Pemberton after having a mostly miserable time there in 2015, but an LCD appearance would have me buying a pass in a heartbeat. Otherwise, the wife and I are considering planning a trip this spring around their tour dates. what happened.. and when tix are 250 dollars less than sasquatch tix i think i have to pass on sasquatch this year unless its a last minute trip. the lineup is amazing but the money just isnt there for me. going to go for pemberton presale and hope for kanye. its happening
