I'm still pretty bummed about the selling of my bus. Got a promotion and had to move to Seattle (not a good place to park a bus) so I'm stuck with a tiny car and large truck (also not easy to park :-()
Stormy, I still brought some delicious Missoula brew that I'd like to share with you, the Mr. and the rest of the boarders, if I can find you guys!
Just PM'ed ya back Danimal. See ya Friday!

I will be leaving from 999 Lake Drive, Issaquah, Friday around 4pm in my quad cab full size truck with room for 4 semi-comfortably, or 10 if ya wanna pack into the canopy clad, carpeted bed of the truck (no more bus :-() if anyone wants to meet me in the huge parking lot of the office, I would be happy to drive you there. Fuel money would be appreciated but if not, I would happily accept some beer or chow once we get there!

If you go in at the same time and park together, there is no problem. If you go in at different times and they try to stop you and park you away from your friends, worry not, they don't chase you if you just keep driving

If it doesn't say Busey Bus, it's not the real thing!And don't you forget it! lol Yes fig, after being evicted every single night and robbed blind during the second night, we figured we would tone it down a bit this year. My friend sold his, and mine is in the shop currently, but I am still hoping and trying to at least make the voyage in mine this year. I am moving to Seattle once my house here in Montucky sells, so it will probably be coming from Bellingham with a stop in Seattle rather than the Missoula to Spokane route from last year. If anyone can't find any other ride, let me know! HG, I'm glad that the nonsense of last year is all water under the bus now, I'd love to pour you and your wife a pint of Montana's finest brew from my new favorite Sasquatch staple if yall would like to make the pilgrimage to the bus(es) What my new pig/new favorite Sasquatch staple will look like: The pints will be much darker (Coldsmoke Scotch Ale), but you get the point

That looks quite a bit more organized than what my friends and I put together. Also looks like it is a coach bus (think high back chairs, built in tv's and a real bathroom but no boozing unless you are sneaky) mine is a converted school bus with limo seating, a swiveling pole, lasers, fog and a stereo meant to crush your skull if I see fit. Also we had 3 buses that we camped in/on, not one bus that we dropped people off to fend for themselves. We didn't do a shuttle, we did this: blogs.seattleweekly.com/reverb/2011/05/sasquatchs_fifth_stage_kept_th_1.php

There are fool proof ways posted elsewhere on the board, but we aren't going to publicize all of our secrets every year. Ya heard? (don't you know we're being watched?) I didn't even need said fool-proof ways last year. The security guys never even looked beyond the top layer of my bag on any given day, let alone any of the additional pockets. That actually kinda pissed me off, I went to considerably more effort than I needed to. I probably could just have put a fifth of JD in my bag wrapped in a blanket and gotten away with it. Sorry to deviate from the current topic and back to the topic at hand but, I have used a nearly foolproof (albeit conjured up by a drunken fool last fest) method for bringing in nearly anything. I simply pack a 1 gallon bag of BBQ sauce covered food, with the whatever booze I choose hiding inside another bag inside the gooey mess, camouflaged. The most popular choice ended up being these little 2 oz jiggly shots of deliciousness. Then, simply pick whatever screener looks least likely to want a BBQ sauce covered hand, and GO FOR IT! It helps to have a healthy bit of drunk confidence too.

Fig- It was a very nice to meet you the first night! Wompwomp- Glad you had fun and sorry I didn't meet you (or didn't bring up my forum affiliations if I did) Stormy- Thank you for your condolences about having our stuff stolen, and I would like to say sorry to both you and HG for my dickishness last year

I really appreciate that! We worked really hard to make that happen last year. Other than being robbed blind, evicted by the crowd control guys 3 times, and the fact that my buddy sold his bus, we would have been happy to do it again this year. Wait... THERE'S NO BUS THIS YEAR? I will probably still bring mine, but it is not likely that we will have two matching buses with a stage built between them for the after-hours shows.

That was pretty awesome. We stayed out there til at least 1am every night. What a shame they're not coming back this year. I really appreciate that! We worked really hard to make that happen last year. Other than being robbed blind, evicted by the crowd control guys 3 times, and the fact that my buddy sold his bus, we would have been happy to do it again this year.

WTF? I haven't even offered any spots! You've just been lurking for months waiting for the perfect moment to post again, havent you? And where is your Gary Busey avatar? Yep, reading this shit 10+ hours a day trying to come up with clever quips. Always end up with slowps tho... Thought my avatar was still my bus with that beautiful Busey face up front, but it looks like everyones' avatars are kinda mixed up

If there's one thing I fucking hate more than listening to snot-nosed idealists bitching about things being too 'corporate', it's people in their late twenties who bitch about things being too 'corporate' without being bothered to concern themselves with such rudimentary things as basic punctuation and spelling. You could have typed one sentence, and that sentence sure as fuck wouldn't have needed its own brand new thread. "wil modest mouse be their next yer?" would have done just fine. If you think you're going to find any music festival in the country that isn't going to offend your delicate bohemian sensibilities, then I hate to tell you this but you have a long lifetime of various disappointments ahead of you. Five fucking dollars says that in nine months you're going to be one of the assholes that starts asking how easy it is to sneak in to the Gorge Amphitheater. Just spare us, okay? Thanks. For something in 'merika, try Burning Man, for something not to far from the US of A, try Shambhala. There are festivals out there that don't pander to corporate sponsorship, they do however pale in comparison to Sasquatch. I hope you can look past the fact that there are giant Honda, XBOX, Esurance and Redbull banners everywhere because generally, next to those posters lies a great band that you may or may not have known you love.

Its been a while but I just had to share these little tidbits. First night: our camp and all the camps around are robbed blind. Day 1, hour 1: hopped off of a 2 foot high platform as sober as a judge not seeing that the long lush grass was hiding a hole perfectly molded to turn the sole of my size 16's directly upward when the rest of my leg stayed pointing straight downward and tore a ligament in my ankle. Once I got those two epic failures out of the way, I proceeded to have one of the best weekends of my entire life and found this little tidbit about the shindig we had blogs.seattleweekly.com/reverb/2011/05/sasquatchs_fifth_stage_kept_th_1.phpI hope you all had as much fun as I did (minus the first two parts obviously)

BusBro: They read your eulogy in another thread, some people were there to here it. They thought you was pushing up bus colored Daisies/found your final parking spot/wandering the Elysian fields forevermore ; you had died. But I knew you hadn't yet parked your bus into the great garage in the sky. I knew within the deepest parts of my heart that you were still out there, somewhere, cruising from place to place in that old converted Thomas™ model D school bus. You know, living the dream etc. . What a beautiful way to go that would be. With the additional day added to Sasquatch this year I doubt that I will survive partying that hard for that long so I will pass this along to my first mate as instructions for my burial right there in the general camping area where they will most likely find my lifeless body tuesday morning.
