Has anyone claimed to know the lineup and kept it this realistic before? I would imagine the info has to exist electronically somewhere protected by now if they'll be releasing the lineup in a few days and updating the site etc. Maybe it got hacked? I think I remember in 2014 somebody did this and it was like half-right. (and, as Pea said, it happens most years anyway.) So, like, take it with a grain of salt, but at the same time, use that same grain of salt to flavour yr meals for the next couple days, nahmean?

Fuck, Four Tet late in the tent sounds unbelievable. Really hoping I don't have to skip someone like The Cure for him though (a'la Bon Iver for James Murphy) Bon Iver vs James Murphy =/= The Cure vs Four Tet. You don't skip The Cure. Speaking of... any of you cats seen the Cure recently? As in the past couple years? I feel like I have this conception of them being known for their longevity but i'm not exactly sure where that comes from... also: www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2015/12/titus_andronicu_67.htmli'm not rly sure if those dates indicate anything, but I've been pulling for TA to play Squatchy for ohhhhh the last several so i'll go ahead and bang my drum. also Craig Finn played with the Hold Steady in 2010 but ain't been back for a spell

Animal Collective playing Seattle and Portland in March so they're probably out. Great news for most of you as you get to see them in Seattle, bad news for Canadian pals I'm hoping our noticeable exclusion means they're doing Levitation Vancouver in June...

Haha what? The current board colors were all copied from the Sasquatch website. Hahahaha, it's been so long since I've been to the site that when I saw this banner it reminded me of the board, oops. Nonetheless, kinda straaange they're doing orange/purple again. I mean not that it rly matters, but I just feel like each yeah they've explicitly made an effort to change the aesthetic of the poster/website/etc. Mildly noteworthy they're sticking with the same colour scheme. Also, that font reminds me of Goosepoops. Spooky. Halloween in May? I'd be more than down with Sugar Rose making a return...that set was mind bending/blowing/insert b-word here. also Animal Collective streaming their album today in Baltimore...plz Snacks plz

I am guessing there is no chance in hell that this will happen but I saw that Neurosis is doing some shows with Shellac for their 30th anniversary in April. If we could get them (or just one of them) on the lineup I would be beyond thrilled. I guess that is April in Netherlands and March in SF. Probably no way. gaaaah that would be amazing. Neurosis at the Gorge is right up there with Wolves in the Throne Room in my Improbable Sasquatch Metal fantasies. Ducktails released a new track today. I could see them on the lineup, especially since Real Estate played this year...I mean even Martin Courtney, who just released his solo record. Speaking of side projects...El Vy is a lock, no? The National and Menomena being Sasquatch alumni...just seems like a fit.

Big ups for the Lizard Wizard.
It occurred to me that Oneohtrix Point Never is as fine a guess as any. He just released a new album, and was scheduled for JulySquatch before that ship sank.

Savages announced a world tour for 2016 with no PNW dates...
Possibilities:
Protomartyr (new album; gaining significant buzz of late - i see them as a later Yeti set, much like Ought) Baroness (new album; fit the heavy but not too heavy role) Frank Ocean (new album at some point, never played Julysquatch as planned) FIDLAR (west coast represent - would be a good day-drunk set) Flying Lotus and/or Thundercat (the former hasn't played since 2011, and the Cat just dropped an album) Julia Holter (successful latest album, Pitchfork approved, seems an ideal festival act) Grimes (let Claire come back plz, 2013 was a riot, and the new album is imminent) Deerhunter (new album, havent played since 2011) Kurt Vile (new album, hasnt played since 2012) Wavves (new album, hasn't played since 2011) Beach House (new album, havent played since 2011) Band of Horses (new album in 2016, haven't played since 2010)

Does anyone remember if there were any adds last year? I can only remember Lauryn Hill dropping out, lol.

Can't say I'm not a little disappointed in the lineup. It feels a bit safer, a bit more mainstream than last year's iteration. Still pretty eclectic. Strong hip-hop element, though of those names I'm only really into several. And a lot of the ones that would get me excited, I'm seeing at Sasquatch anyway. Also wish there was a bit more heavier/punkier groups.
I'll probably still end up going, though.

They replied to a comment on Facebook saying that they'll be choosing a winner from the "guess when the lineup drops" game from people who guessed April 1st. Also are denying that it's a prank with the hash tag #Nofoolin.
I doubt theyd stir up any more ill will with a false start...and with more and more artists announcing Pemberton on their tour dates it seems unlikely they'll wait much longer anyways.

That's a bangin' schedule. As Jeffotash said, some overlaps but nothing that has me screaming and asking god (Snacks) why.
Ohhhhhh hot damn we're getting close
edit: forgot to mention my full endorsement of both Fuzz-soiled panties and late-night Spooning.

Just listening to Cloud Nothings' latest record, and they struck me as a possible band for this year, filling the METZ/Fucked Up role. Maybe they'd even bring along Wavves since those boys are dropping that collaborative album this summer.
Really tho, just entertaining myself with notions like this until the lineup drops. As drawn out as this process has been, it's still not as drawn out as it was last year, and this time around I have reason to believe they'll do a great job regardless.

I really got no fuckin clue what the headliners for this puppy will be like. I'm pretty awed by Phish rumours - they're doing Les Schwab Amphitheater in Bend a few days after Pemberton so I suppose they'll be in the area...it'd be a kind of odd get. But i can roll with it.
I have no doubt it'll be eclectic. I think some big EDM headliner is pretty likely though.

If I didn't have to work early tomorrow I would drive to Seattle and watch them again tonight. I haven't heard Baptists yet but it seems like I should change that. Definitely. In my opinion they've made some of the most interesting hardcore to come out of Vancouver in the last little while. Obviously the drumming is crazy, but they've just got a really raw and invigorating sound. I especially dug Bloodmines. And yeah, forceful live shows as well.

I'm 100 percent behind you on the SUMAC, my man. Caught them Thursday with Baptists and they destroyed. I actually saw their first show as well, when they opened for Deafheaven, and it's amazing how much tighter and more comfortable they've gotten. You can tell they just have all those songs down to a fucking tee.

Isaac Brock is one of the living embodiments of the principle of people getting angry at new things from an artist. No one can be expected to stay the same. Isaac Brock has changed significantly. Jeremiah Green wasn't even with the band for quite some time. That's what humans do they grow and change. As such modest mouse has changed. New mouse is just as good as old mouse it's just different. Modest Mouse's catalogs is the definition of someone maturing as they grow older. Isaac tackles different issues with his lyrics than what he did long ago. yeah, you've about summed it up for me. And considering the state of other bands that have been around as long as MM, I think they've been remarkably consistent. So, being in the top 5000 fans and all, does that mean you dropped the 500 bucks on the vintage poster pre-order package for the new record?
