Gramma your horn is back! My nightmares can resume now..
And I'm a Gaga fan, but not at a festival. I think most of her concert appeal is her set and performance, and from what I've seen of that, it'd be pretty tough to do at a festival. I know she's done them before, but I don't think they're half good as her arena production.

Not sure if they are exactly headliner material, but Primal Scream is currently touring, playing a couple European Festivals (and just finished Australian ones) and yet have no American dates as of yet.
Slight possibility? OR are they an undercard?

I'm not the biggest Gaga fan, but would welcome her as a headliner just for the change of pace. The Flaming Lips headlining would be a disappointment for me only because they have played so many dates in the PNW over the last few years. They have an amazing stage show, but it can be repetitive after seeing it 5+ times.

Or after one time. I saw it once, enjoyed it, but have no need to see it again.

I believe that those people who do not leap at every opportunity they get in this life to see the Flaming Lips perform have no soul.

Slight possibility? OR are they an undercard? Love Primal Scream!!! Headline at Sasquatch? Unlikely. Undercard? Possibly. But would I lose my shit if they appeared anywhere on the lineup? Absolutely.

I don't see her/want to see her coming to Sasquatch. Its not her scene. I see Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo as more commercial festivals.

Exactly. Gaga headlining Sasquatch would be a slap in the face to the people Sasquatch has been going out of their way to attract for the last five years.

I see Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo as more commercial festivals. I didn't see footage of her performance, but went to her show last time she was here. I didn't think she would be very good without a huge everchanging set, 25 dancers and at least 10 costume changes. It was a really cool show because of all that.. but I don't think I'd pay just to see her sing.

I get down to Bad Romance along with every other drunken yahoo at the bar, but it doesn't mean I want her at Sasquatch.

I'd love to see Gaga but it's a moot point, she costs a lot of $$$

Gaga lol.
Back to more realistic options, I would be kinda bummed if Black Keys were a headliner. They'd be a perfect sub though.

And now, another post in Horned Gramma's ongoing series, "If I Were a Moderator..." If I were a moderator, I'd set up a that changes all DOLLAR SIGNS ($) to ASTERISKS (*), because asterisks look like assholes, and so do you if you are typing dollar signs and speculating about which acts Sasquatch can and can't get based on finances.

I know it's a bit lol, I just didn;t want to completely omit it...there are an assload of 16-21 year old girls/ladies that show up at Sasquatch, and I am not sure how important that demographic is to Adam Zacks.

We should cut this shit out, if Abominable starts to get the idea that there are going to be people saying swears and frowning at each other at the festival, he might not go.
