Probably not going...Four days is too much for my old ass!
...Unless, by some miracle, single day tickets go on sale...

Thanks HG! I'm still hoping To make it to Sasquatch this year. If I do, a beer or three is on me. nope. I never really watched Lost. The one or two episodes I did see I thought were pretty unwatchable. This is blasphemy! Did you watch it from the beginning?

This week - Gotye - Making Mirrors The Weeknd - Echoes of Silence I'm really enjoying that Making Mirrors album. Even though, it is (in fact) all over the place! I might have two look into Gotye's other two releases in hopes that they are just as good. Also, how is that Weekend album?

He has played with them live on several special occasions... Most recently at their Blizzcon performance last year... And I imagine on the Foo Fighters recent Australian tour (since The D opened). "Dr. G" is considered (by JB) to be the unofficial third member of the band.
It would seem highly unlikely he'd show up at Sasquatch, unless he was already on tour with them or something. My bet is on Sanders

UPDATE: New autopsy revealed he chopped his little boys heads off with an axe before blowing up the house. I feel sick. This whole thing is the most fucked up news I've heard in a long time. Hope he is rotting in hell.

This is exactly what I thought when seeing Avenged Sevenfold on that list... But I would personally love to see Modest Mouse and The Black Angels on the same day as Metallica!

And it caused me physical pain to omit Eldorado from my list of ELO recommendations, but I thought I should limit myself to two and that one is a LOT more abstract than Out of the Blue or Face the Music. The whole first side of Eldorado is pretty fucking menacing. I hate when you are trying to recommend people stuff that you know is amazing, but at the same time you don't want to overwhelm them so you scale back on the doubles and triples of a band even though you know that the one record you recommended needs the others as well in order to really blow a persons mind. On the bright side, I only listened to Eldorado because of your recommendations to Hanchy. They totally reminded me how awesome both Out of the Blue and Face the Music were and I realized that I'd never even heard Eldorado when I was going through my records. So I just checked out the tracklist for El Dorado on Amazon and completely forgot about "can't get you out of my head". Love that track. Good chance I'll be looking into this after some time with Out Of The Blue. ...and thoughts on the album discovery? Seriously, I should have been doing more listening to this band a long time ago.

My fingers are crossed that The D will be playing on Sunday or the same day as Beck. Otherwise I will be forced to buy a four day pass and I can't afford that shit for two people.

A 'Bro' is someone who gets belligerently drunk as quickly as possible, disregards things such as sunblock and proper hydration, only cares about asshole bands, harasses women to impress his buddies, wears puka shell necklaces, is inclined to intentionally lash out against the more mild mannered revelers for asking him to contain his shit, is equally inclined to unintentionally lash out against more mild-mannered revelers by virtue of the fact that he is belligerently drunk and is of a mind to wrassle with his buddies, and will most likely have a sack full oof roofies in his double-wide asshole sized camper. What the fuck do you mean you don't know what a Bro is? Haha, this and basically living the GTL lifestyle with a ridiculously lifted truck as your "ride."

ELO - Eldorado fucking epic right meow! Man, that was the first time I'd ever heard Eldorado before. I've already listened to it twice today. That album is like fucking magic. Incredible. Is it better than the two other ELO albums Gramma had recommended to me a few days ago? I have only listened to Face The Music so far and that album is amazing!

Modern Guilt is the most non-weird Beck album there is, but the songs are good. The problem is that you hear too much Danger Mouse production in it.

Yeah, way too many emo kids there... That was partially killing it for me. The dude also made some really bold statements up on stage. Too many emo kids? And Conor making an ass out of himself onstage? Are you SURE we're talking about a Bright Eyes show? Haha, You're right. I shouldn't expect Bright eyes to be anything but just that. The sad thing was that I sat through it to keep my "good spot" for Death Cab and they were just... meh. I should have left that stage after Iron & Wine. Oh...and fuck yes! "Debra" is one of my favorites!

I was once a pretty big Bright Eyes fan. Did I think it was acceptable for Conor Oberst to fucking emo out with his hood on for 4 songs at 2011? Absolutely not. Haha, he looked like he was trying to be Eminem off of "8 mile" or something to me.... I'm really excited for Beck! The last time I saw him live was in support of his Midnite Vultures album and that was IMO one of the most memorable shows I have been to. I know he's mellowed out a little since then, but I have a feeling he is still great live.

It just sounds like a lineup that will afford a a fun, energetic atmosphere. There's enough bands thrown in there that I REALLY want to see to make it so that I'm not totally bummed about not getting the bands I was hoping for, and the rest of it just sounds like a party where I can go and space out and enjoy the vibes. Man, I couldn't agree with you more this year... ...and if Friendly D is right about that Black Mountain comparison, then I'm definitely checking that band out!
