Yeah, the venue map is also 'coming soon'....so it seems like a 5th stage could be possible
At the same time though it might just be that the 'sasquatch' listing on the lineup page is a collection of all bands playing at Sasquatch and the other tabs sort the bands according to which stage they are playing on

The website is back up though, as of now, with a fun new redesign to boot.

The Sasquatch website meow lists a fifth stage. I'm not sure what to make of this but intuitively I would believe that there will be more acts this year since there are more stages to accommodate them.
Edit: This post is completely fucking dumb, nevermind.

Gotye is playing the Neptune in Seattle on April 10, seems like this would probably rule them out for Sasquatch No. It wouldn't. Not even a little bit. Not so much a comment related to the radius clause so much as the reasonableness of Gotye specifically being there again a month later. He is ridiculously huge in Australia and is much bigger in Europe than he is in America. Seems unlikely that an artist who could sell out a huge theater in Australia or wherever would give that many fucks about Seattle as to come out twice in 6 weeks. I think the fact that the radius clause had just been brought up maybe got everyone thinking about it? A bit jumpy, maybe?

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say Gotye will be there. They seem like a late Yeti, early Wookie band. Gotye is playing the Neptune in Seattle on April 10, seems like this would probably rule them out for Sasquatch

God I don't think I can stand going through another Toro y Moi live set. I like his albums fine, but the new album just doesn't translate live.
I vote for Braids- I saw them on tour with Toro y Moi and their set was unbelievable. I could see them playing a late Yeti-stage slot.

Do you really think Black Keys could headline? I see them more as a sub.

As a regular lurker and occasional poster, I'd like to say that HG is a really invaluable contributor. If not for him and the chaos that he creates, I would just look at know's sasquatch blog and nothing else. That being the case, hats off to HG and Switch for necessitating multiple rumor threads.

To go back to the montage, the first track sounds an awful lot like the opening of Crash Years by The New Pornographers (although 1. I'm probably biased because I thought they were great last year and 2. The montage obviously has worse sound quality), and one of the tracks is REALLY OBVIOUSLY Hey by Pixies. And if neither of those are right, don't worry, I certainly will leave forever.

Lykke Li will definitely not be there. She's already booked for every day of Sasquatch with the exception of Sunday, and Sunday is between Portland and San Francisco shows. Really extremely unlikely.

Sequence of events:
1. Switch rambles on about Bright Eyes incessantly. 2. Switch gets called out. 3. Switch picks an internet fight. 4. Switch backs out after realizing he's out-matched. 5. Switch decries certain individuals for not making significant enough contributions to the board.
Hmmm......
