According to the schedule page on the Sasquatch! site, the top 10 must see artists (or artists with the most attendees) are: 1) MGMT (1842 attendees) 2) Vampire Weekend (1807 attendees) 3) Band of Horses (1661 attendees) 4) Broken Social Scene (1648 attendees) 5) LCD Soundsystem (1592 attendees) 6) Passion Pit (1586 attendees) 7) The xx (1487 attendees) 8) My Morning Jacket (1471 attendees) 9) Deadmau5 (1430 attendees) 10) The National (1408 attendees) Some of these seem to be quite different than the top 10 lists of people on this board... Thoughts? Too many bros who don't hit up the message board? By the way, the next ten are: 11) She & Him (1372 attendees) 12) Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros (1304 attendees) 13) Massive Attack (1260 attendees) 14) Kid Cudi (1233 attendees) 15) Miike Snow (1189 attendees) 16) Mumford & Sons (1155 attendees) 17) Pavement (1067 attendees) 18) Tegan and Sara (1060 attendees) 19) Local Natives (1051 attendees) 20) Caribou (1029 attendees) Wow, I'm only going to be seeing 9 of the top 20 (Band of Horses, Broken Social Scene, LCD Soundsystem, My Morning Jacket, Deadmau5, The National, Massive Attack, Pavement, and Caribou), and neither of the top 2.

I officially don't get the XX. They are ranked 7th, right above My Morning Jacket, Deadmau5, and the National. I can barely think of a place I'd least rather see them live than Sasquatch. There won't even be a place to take a nap with the huge crowd.
Count me as one who will be avoiding that stage. I'll be checking out the main stage, wait, Tegan & Sara. Ok, I'll be checking out the Yeti, wait, end of Freelance Wales, 20 minute intermission, beginning of Vetiver. Ok, I'll be checking out the Rumpus then. Wait,

I really wish there was SOMETHING going on at either the yeti stage or the rumpus room. I mean, the only two groups that I actually hate on the festival are playing at the same time with nothing else going on simultaneously at the other stages (or stage and tent, I guess).

Wait, As I've said a jillion times, that's how I feel about Vampire Weekend/Nada Surf/Dam-Funk. I at least like the xx's album, and they're helped significantly by the other acts having no appeal to me (Tegan & Sara I saw in '08 and don't really like that much in the first place, Freelance Whales had a bad pitchfork review and are thus untouchables). I've heard only a few more good things about their live show then MGMT's.

"Hello," she called to me, "would you like some information on PETA and animal rights?" I was intrigued. Careful not to spill any of the meat in my Gorge-sized cheesesteak,

1. DFA 1979 2. Yeasayer 3. White Denim 4. Robyn 5. Deerhunter 6. Beach House 7 Smith Westerns 8. Ratatat 9. The Antlers 10. The Flaming Lips
I'd love to see Flying Lotus, but seeing as the Flaming Lips will most likely be playing the same time, he loses.
