I don't know, If you've ever taken the correct cocktail of hallucinogens at the gorge its easy to get confused as to why you're doing anything

hahaha very true....
I got stuck in the front of the mosh pit frying my nuts off to the mars volta, and I was seriously scared for my safety. I'm glad I stayed alive long enough to walk out after the lips...
I was standing on the rail from 12:30 for dyme def, all the way to probably 12:30 a.m. for the lips. 12 hours, no sunscreen, a few bottles of water, and several joints.

I plan on spending... about $500 on this trip. Depressing but I'm sure I will not regret it. Dude I live in AZ too, and drove out to the Gorge for Sasquatch. It took me about 28 hours non-stop driving, and a solid $650 after tickets when all said and done... I did have to replace a tire and a battery mid-trip, whoops... It's worth every fucking penny, and then some. It's not just that Sasquatch is cheaper... it's not just that IMO they have consistently had better lineups... It's not just the scenery of the Gorge, but it's the whole fucking ordeal... And believe me it's an ordeal, it always will be, but again it's worth every second, every headache, every heartbreak and oh so much. Just plan ahead and bring your own "supplies," stop in Flag to pick up your goods and head on north. Going through Utah, and Idaho is a blast, for no fucking reason, it's just fun. Try to make time to come back down the coast. If it can be done, then done right it's a solid two week trip, but it's completely indelible.

Well look who it is.
How's your magical booby-trapped flag, dontoro?

It hasn't been that long for me, only a few weeks... But now that you ask, it's actually currently sealed away in an underground vault with it's new security for the time being.

Before Squatch `10, there was a discussion about campsite flags. dontoro here has some dorky brahma bull flag (toro? bull? get it?) and he posted a picture of it.
I made a joke about tracking him down and stealing it, and in all seriousness he told me that it was actually in-real-life booby trapped, and promised second- and third-degree burns on the hands of anyone who dared touch it.
I still say a campground-wide game of capture the flag is conspicuously absent from the Sasquatch experience.

I am SO down for capture the flag at next years squatch. everybody post pictures of their flag and whatever board member collects the most and posts pics after the fest wins.
Are you allowed to build moats at Sasquatch?

I love the idea, but can already tell you that I will be too busy either drinking, sleeping, being hung over, or all three to participate. Just don't steal my flag!

I'm going to dip my flag pole in some dirty LSD so anyone who touches it with their bare hands will have a shitty rest of the day.

Crap, one more thing to keep me busy: permanent flag guard. I guess I will be playing after all!
