Thee Oh Sees are at the top of their game. I went to the Crystal show with the intention of seeing them there "instead" of going to Sasquatch, but I'm probably going to pay $300 just to see this iteration of the band at the the Gorge because hell yeah dogg.

Benjamin Clementine appears to have disappeared from the lineup page. Maybe they're waiting to announce him when they announce Gorillaz.

Finger Eleven used to be named Rainbow Butt Monkeys, I'm really hoping the same type of deal happens with Rainbow Kitten Surprise. They are actually super talented.

I think it's odd that Benjamin Clementine appeared on the lineup page for a day or so then disappeared. The realist on me suspects that there was some technical issue with his profile page that needs to be fixed before they put him back up. But the optimist in me wants to think that they are holding back on announcing him as part of a package with several other artists. He was listed in the top half of the lineup (between Jagwar Ma and The Strumbellas), so relatively high for a late add. He's not a very big deal on his own, but if they officially announce him along side 10 or so other decent mid-card acts, that could potentially be a big deal.

I think a sort of "phase 2" lineup addition would be a good way for them to boost sales. I think if they did it, it would probably be like 2-3 mid card acts and the rest at the bottom though. On a slightly related note I had a dream that Mother Mother was added to the lineup, and then when I looked them up this morning I saw that they are releasing an album this friday. I'm thinking it was too random for my brain to have thought of them, since I haven't really listened to them since last time they were at Sasquatch, so I am chalking this one down as a prophecy of sorts and I now expect that they will be added.

Red Fang are in Vancouver the days before Sasquatch, and they were a massive crowd pleaser in 2013. If there are late additions, they would make sense.

The fact that they are playing Billings, Spokane, and Vancouver in May without Seattle or Portland is interesting. Considering that they are from Portland, I wouldn't necessarily read too much into it. But, they would make a nice mid-lower card addition if they were bundled with a few other similarly sized artists.

Thanks for keeping your eye on this stuff. I really hope we get some gems added! Also fun fact Snacks likes Jimmy Eat World and dey ain't doin a damn thing during Sas. I doubt they'd get added but I would laugh and cry.

If you're still trying to validate spending as much as we did on ticket... Arkells & July Talk are doing a show in Toronto and tickets are about $90

I've listened to Coloring Book so much in the last year that I almost forgot how incredible Acid Rap was. I put it on yesterday and ended listening to it three times. Chance tore up the Bigfoot stage to a huge crowd last time and had a great time doing it. Him headlining the main stage will definitely be a highlight of the weekend. He's pushing for #1 on my Most Excited For list right now.

dolphinately was on the original poster! But I just listened to his music for the first time, I'll be at his show for sure. Correction: Benjamin Clementine added. lineup.sasquatchfestival.com/band/benjamin-clementineI knew there was someone new on there and I didn't recognize that Harper guy at first. But this one is dolphinately new. I think. Is Benjamin still playing? Link doesnt work and I no longer see him on lineup...

Starting my Localsquatch shows tonight with Thee Oh Sees @ Crystal Ballroom! Should be a good show. In the event Sasquatch does die or the Amphitheater falls into the Gorge, I still want to have consumed some of the sweet tunes Zacks curated for us! Part 2 tonight with The Radio Dept. at Doug Fir! (hoping to get a ticket at the door)

Stoked about the Sleigh Bells addition.... As for the day lineups, it really proves how small this lineup is, but on the bright side, I do think the days are more balanced than last year. Not too sure how I feel about there being no overlap between Bigfoot and Sasquatch.... On the one hand that means no conflicts, but on the other hand that means fewer options when someone lame is playing. I guess we'll see once the detailed schedules come out whether it is overall a pro or a con in my book.

I sincerely hope the addition of single day tickets gets Sasquatch the funding it needs.

Oh shit just noticed Reuben and the Dark is new, right? They are good, I saw them play with Canada's sweetheart, Dan Mangan.
