The fact even one of the headliner's is taking so long is starting to make me think they're really struggling with the lineup this year. It worries me. They aren't struggling, most of the festival was booked by August.

Zola Jesus put out tour dates for Feb/March with no northwest dates. I'd love to finally see her.

Pretty sure Sevendust was called in to replace Static X since they're on hiatus. Wayne Static solo then, it'll happen.

Personally I don't see the huge deal behind the moving stage and cubes. It's cool for Animal Collective but it's not like it was a complicated system. LED panels and moving versatubes are pretty but there's way more impressive live shows.

You'd think that is the collision of at least two different s mutilating an otherwise coherent sentence, but it's not. I literally have no idea what that is supposed to mean. Also I object to images in the signature line. If what he quoted was how it appears, I have no clue how it ended that way, also don't care to correct. Anyway, usually Primavera Sound competes with Sasquatch, it starts after this year. Bjork, Mangum, Neon Indian, few others are on. I'd enjoy a return of Bjork. I only put this in rumors cause Sasquatch usually shares a few acts with Primavera.

Working Avenged Sevenfold on the 13th, it'll be a shit show. I hate this town. May have Yukon Blonde coming through soon, that would be neat.

Pearl Jam sucks. So much of it. I love Ten, but yeah the rest of their discography is just eh. I disagree, they got much better after Ten. There's a reason that band has been on top for so long. I doubt they'd headline Sasquatch though, they could do the Gorge on their own and have. Plus with the rampant hipster attitude at Sasquatch, I see more complaining than necessary if they were announced. Which is strange cause I see love for RHCP to headline. Who I still go the Nick Cave opinion on them. I'm forever near a stereo saying, 'What the fuck is this GARBAGE?' And the answer is always the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

M83 that is. For my money Animal Collective is one of the three or four most thrilling live acts on the planet. You haven't seen M83 live though. That was a phenomenal show. It is, I saw them down in Austin at Fun Fun Fun. They nail their music live, don't hear many electronic acts sounding that solid live.

I agree Weak Shit Superfan that there was something awesome about seeing spencer berate the entire crowd but as a big fan and having seen them five times before I was just hoping for a great rock performance that day not the spectacle that occurred. Especially since I had gotten a whole bunch of people around me in the pit stoked for it. Being my first Murder City show, I was amazed by that. Everyone around me(including the duck faced gay kid next to me) were just pissed and missed his entire point. Supposedly Spencer broke some chick's camera lens during that and she threated to have him beat if he didn't pay her for it or some shit. I love that man, I wish they would return too. Hell if we can get dance acts and Ozomatli two years in a row, why not Murder City?

Smaller want, but I would love the Electric Six. If you've never seen them live, they're one of the best live bands around. Usually Dick Valentine gets really drunk and just has a blast. Last time I saw them instead of leaving the stage before the encore they stood in place pretending to be asleep. I think they would be entertaining for a festival.

I love how people called's MGMT's set horrible. If you didn't like their new album, why did you bother watching them. It was very well known that was mostly what they played.
Luckily I like "Congratulations"

More than likely yes, the last two Wilco shows I worked I fell asleep at. If I was asleep and someone put me at a Wilco show, I would likely go into a coma. I don't get their live appeal at all. So really I hope not. But if that winds up being so, the other stage will probably entertainment.

Fitz and the Tantrums are in an iTunes ad. They're also labelmates with Minus the Bear, Silversun Pickups, Hot Hot Heat, The Limousines, and Delphic.

My brother and friends stayed there last year and loved it. More than likely where I'll wind up. I'm not big on the Gorge's camping staff.

How about some representatives from Saddle Creek: Cursive. I could see Tim Kasher probably playing his solo album over Cursive coming.

premier camping used to be promised free coffee and pastries in the morning but they never delivered on that as long as I was there ('09 and '10). I bet people that pay for terrace camping would throw a hissy fit if they didn't get their free shit Yeah premier camping was ruined in 09. It was like smaller normal camping basically. 08 it was fine, quite small, constant security, etc. It was supposed to be the campground you could sleep in. I had wound up sleeping in my car in 09 cause the assholes from Vancouver who could "see the pain"(coke) in the singer from Kings of Leon's eyes had to play "Sex on Fire" 10,000 times. When I told security: *shrug*. Bullshit. Wildhorse was a great choice this year.
