At this point, everyone's best bet if they REALLY want to go to the festival is to just show up and scalp tickets in the campground or at the gate. There are always people selling tickets there. With enough looking you can probably find tickets at face value.

So, I am in the same page as a lot of us poor louts. Got my paycheck today expecting to get my 4 day pass and what do you know...
Anyways, if anyone can find it in their heart to help me out and sell a pass at face value or $300, you will be granted three wishes (which amounts to me saying thank you in three different languages).
My friend and I were going to road trip it from McAllen, Texas right here on the southern tip. Now, he has a ticket and possibly a long and lonely voyage ahead of him.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SWEET MOTHER OF MARY, THIS IS JUST WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my boyfriend introduced us all to Sasquatch! we all got our tickets, but he had to old off due to financial reasons. He has been going for the past 7 years in a row and is devastated that he does not have a ticket for this year. This also happens to be the year his two best friends are able to go. If you have an extra ticket and a good soul I would be eternally grateful if you could sell us your extra 4 day pass. also, we will buy you a two six upon sasquatch arrival

ADVICE for people looking for 4-day passes - DO NOT buy them from ebay or stubhub right now, they will go way down in price in 2-3 weeks after the panic subsides. Trust me.

Looking for anywhere from 1-4 Four Day Passes myself because my friends are incredibly dense and lazy. One of them even had the money but just forgot to purchase a ticket before they sold out lol.
If anybody has an extra pass they cant use and wanna get rid of, send some love my way. I live in Boise, so I am not sure of the best way to purchase a ticket off somebody but I'm sure we can figure out a legit and safe way to do it.

I'll keep this short and sweet. I need a 3 day pass for the following three reasons: 1. Hook up with chicks. 2. Crush some beers. 3. I'm in need of a wicked sun burn after this long winter. Ok, none of those are true. Well maybe one or two but I still need a ticket. Hook a brotha up! Some of my best work here!!

Hey guys, So I decided to make a profile just so I could jump on this bandwagon here.
I come from Calgary, Alberta up in the great frozen wastes of Canada. I try to get out of the country at least once a year during my summer break from University to keep my sanity. I've never had the chance to go to Sasquatch before.
I was just browsing the internet the day the lineup was released when my jaw dropped: Death From Above 1979 was playing the Gorge! They were one of the bands at my first concert when I was 15 which began the drastic change into the music nerd and musician I am today. I've always regretted never seeing them again since then, and now my goal for this year is to see them play now that they're back together.
As I continued reading the lineup, I couldn't believe it. So many bands I've wanted to see but never come through Calgary are playing! At last count, I want to go to see 27 bands on the lineup.
Of course, I wasn't able to scrape together the cash in time to buy a ticket, but I would love to go unbelievably so! If anyone out there would sell me just one 4-day pass, I would gladly write a song dedicated to you, if you'd like. I'll bring my 12-string acoustic along to the Gorge and play the song just so you know you're my bloody hero for selling me a ticket!
Sob story mode off.

My name's Brittney, and I'm a 20 year old college student from Ohio. I do my homework, eat my veggies, and go to bed on time. That was not always the case, and I didn't always rock a 4.0... I used to rock some other things. I used to really get down. I got down so much and so hard that once upon a time, I dropped out of high school to pursue the festie life. Being from the midwest I've been to a lot of festivals, but I gave up on them when it became apparent that it was becoming more about the drug culture than the music. Seeing a tent sectioned off with caution tape, tent door flapping open in the wind to reveal some overdose casualty, was a little more than I was prepared to see at a small festival when I was 16... I'm all for experimentation, but if you've ever been to a festival in the midwest you'll know just what I mean about it being overrun by hustlers.
After I missed Faith No More at Coachella last year I never thought there'd ever be another festival worth my time. Anyway, my friends and family are still big on festival life... so when my brother said "look up the Sasquatch Music Festival, you're going to FREAK OUT" I knew it had to be Modest Mouse. But when I saw the lineup, it was so much more... and as if that weren't enough, it was to be held in one of the most special corners of the world (me and my best friend backpacked to and along the west coast as soon as I turned 18, probably the single most influential factor in me going home and getting my shit together!)
Anyway, while I was emailing my professors and arranging to take my exams/finish spring quarter a week early, some lucky people were buying up the last of the 4-day passes fair and square. I was so smitten with Sasquatch already that I had "liked" it on Facebook. Then I saw the status update. Sold out?! Alternatives such as craigslist and eBay confirmed what I already knew; there was no way in hell I could afford to buy tickets from scalpers...
At risk of offending some of the resident board members, I'm just going to go through with this potentially lame first post and see what happens. I'm not getting my hopes up or anything, but it couldn't hurt to put myself out there... too much :'-P

I don't know how you could think such a post was lame... Heh, thank you! I just know how annoying it can be for an online community to get flooded with n00bz due to the popularization of a big event - I was a Pink Floyd Online junkie and during Live 8 shit really hit the fan...

It's a yearly pilgrimage for many. It is to be expected, and that is exactly what this thread is for. Thanks for not starting a new one.
Welcome! ;D

Its kinda just funny. People get jumped on here, but usually only if they post unintelligently or confrontationaly.
