Do it. It's something everyone needs to experience.

...not if you're going to get uptight about something like showering, though. If having to shower every single day while you're at a festival is a sticking point, you're going to hate the campgrounds regardless of the shower situation.

I did the showers around 7-8am every day last year, things were alright, provided you were a guy. Maybe 10 minute wait.
The ladies shower line was insanely long.

At 9am I waited for 45 minutes for my shower. It was sexually worth it though, except for the nasty underoos floating around in the sitting water....

I don't get people who feel the need to shower at Sasquatch. I'd feel wrong if I did. Honestly part of the fun is getting thunderously greezy.

Baby wipes, a can of dry shampoo and roughly fifty yards of yellow Caution tape manage to get me though 3 days. Fixed.

Yes it would appear he is. Oddly enough, the caution tape debacle was a result of my shower policy which is wake up and get drunk immediately so I don't care that I'm dirty.

One of my friends at Warped Tour years ago had that same policy. His goal was to be "blacked out by noon," and around 11:30 we were more than certain that he had easily reached that point. He proceeded to tell us all that we were fucking idiots and if he were blacked out then he would know it.
Yeeeaahh, he passed out shortly there after and woke up a few hours later wondering what the hell happened to him.

Yes, I was thinking of fig. With all of these fucking DiCaprios I find myself thinking that pretty much every post is made by fig.
Maybe it's time we all switched back.

Damn, there goes my "perceived post quality" stat And I don't need to be blacked out for me not to care. I'm lucky enough to have put my angry drunken alter ego, Dick Fig, on the shelf long ago. I'm just a fun drunk now, maybe a little intense but hardly ever angry I'd say. Spoken like a true alchy.

I've never showered at Sasquatch but I showered twice at Pemberton because it was dusty as fuck and the lines were way smaller, and I must say, I felt fantastic afterwards. The main thing keeping me from the showers is the line, if I could just walk right into one I would probably shower every day.

I just go with water bottle showers in the morning to freshen up and I'm good to go

The last couple years I've been in premier camping and us guys would usually skip at least half of the main stage headliner's set to shuttle back to the campground for showers. We'd only have to wait maybe 10 minutes tops. The girls in the group would get up at like 6am and didn't encounter much of a line either. If we really wanted to stay for a full headlining set, we had gallon jugs of water to dump all over us in the morning to get somewhat clean. I can't skip more than one day of showering, especially at a sweaty festival. Guess I'm just a clean freak.

The morning I woke up at 6:00am and bolted for the showers to beat the lineup was rough, but so very worth it. Is it just me, or are there very few showers at Sasquatch? It seems like at Pemberton there were 2 of those big rig trailers converted to showers in every 'section' of camping (total 6, with like 12 stalls per trailer). I don't even recall seeing showers at Sasquatch, let alone entertaining the notion that I might get to have one.

It's a music festival not a stay-as-clean-as-possible festival.

I don't even recall seeing showers at Sasquatch, let alone entertaining the notion that I might get to have one. I think I've only ever seen one set of them and from what I hear unless you wake up with the sun the line takes over an hour most of the time. I really dont have the patience for that at a music festival.

I didn't have any problem with missing the majority of three out of the four headliners' sets last year. I stayed for all of the Foo Fighters set. Death Cab and Modest Mouse I've seen about five times each, and Wilco has never really done it for me.
