I'm so opposite, thought Saturday and Sunday were staked and Monday was weaker apart from a few bands. And yes, conflicts look like they will be bad, but for me LCD is an easy choice to go where they are not playing and see something else (just couldn't ever get into it).

Also, we don't really need Soundgarden and I dont believe there will be any late adds of that size. I bet they will play Bumbershoot.

The headliners bring a lot less star power then years past. But the music quality is much much higher. This is the first year I will likely watch all three headliners as opposed to one or zero. Also I kinda like the lack of huge names because it might help to keep the crowds down a little.

This lineup I so much better then I dared to expect. So so so good. Can't believe adds like Patrick Watson and Massive Attack. (only problem will be the massive amount of conflict I for see).

That lineup would be an awesome surprise...Hope they have good hunches, although some of those artists seem kind of unlikely, like Owen Pallett who is playing in Seattle in early May unfortunately.

Last year, when I e-mailed them there was a limit of 4 people per spot for premium camping, you each need a wristband and they only give you 4 per ticket.

New Yeasayer has been in constant rotation just because its so catchy. But, new Silver Mt. Zion, Efterklang, Owen Pallett, Jaga Jazzist in that order are the best of this year (already an amazing year) in my opinion.

While that is true, it doesn't really matter because Coachella and Bonnaroo never share headliners anyway. And, some midsize, sub headliner bands have been known to play all three, not just small bands. For example, TV on the Radio last year.

It seems that if a band is on both the Coachella and Bonnaroo lineups it is a fairly good indicator that they will be doing the so called "festival circuit" and thus a decent chance of playing Sasquatch.

Me to, also I really don't remember some of those ever being mentioned. For example, Alicia Keyes.

Your welcome. And I was bored at school so decided to answer instead of directing you somewhere else so it was no problem.

Food - yes, had no troubles in the past, they like it in in clear plastic bags though. Water bottle - yes, but they make you empty it out on the way in and there are places to fill it up inside. Blanket - yes, though they have made me shake it out in the past to make sure nothing is inside. Lawn Chair - I believe this one is a no, not allowed in. Camera - here is where it gets tricky, they say non-professional (defined by removable lenses) cameras are allowed but I was turned away last year with my camera that isn't a professional camera but looks kind of similar. I argued with the security person but they would have none of it and I had to take it back to my car. Medication - Not sure on that but I can't see it being a problem. And either way that super easy to hide. I'm pretty sure I brought Advil in last year. As for the big tent, unless its absolutely massive I can't see it being a problem. I had an 8 person tent up last year with no issues whatsoever. Hope that helps, also a lot of this stuff and more is up on the festival website: www.sasquatchfestival.com/#/gorge

I saw Eugene Mirman and David Cross at Bumbershoot last year and would love to see them again. Also I'd have to agree with any of the Daily Show guys too (Wyatt Cenac was sweet at Bumbershoot as well).

Yes, as long as you arrive together you will be able to camp together, otherwise its not likely you will be able to.

Top 10 albums is extraordinarily hard to pick, but I think I'd have to go with:
10. dredg - The Pariah, the Parrot, the Delusion 9. Our Lady Peace - Spiritual Machines 8. Radiohead - Hail to the Thief 7. Patrick Watson - Close to Paradise 6. Patrick Watson - Fireweed 5. A Silver Mt. Zion - Horses In the Sky 3. Porcupine Tree - In Absentia (tied for 3rd place) 3. Porcupine Tree - Deadwing 2. Efterklang - Parades 1. Gavin Castleton - Home
Honorable mention to albums that just came out but could likely make this list if I had them longer:
Efterklang - Magic Chairs A Silver Mt. Zion - Kollaps Tradixionales Owen Pallett - Heartland
