I'm starting to come around on the idea of rebranding. Obviously, summer has always been slow around here. I'm sure that traffic is even slower now, and it's not like it will pick up in October because of Sasquatch once festival speculation season begins, so if the focus because PNW Music or something else - I'm not sure what would be best - but we kept the Sasquatch sub for memories, that might be the most viable option to keep this forum alive. Do y'all still have the Boarders Unite Facebook group? Is it more active than this forum is? According to proboards we’re still averaging 100+ guest users. I think keeping Sas as a sub and rebranding would be the best option going forward. Obviously just my opinion but I think it would open it up to a wider community.

To that effect, a new subforum (maybe in music discussion) for New/Upcoming Releases might help facilitate this? As in, we could create new topics for discussion of each release as opposed to confining them to a single thread.

Perhaps I'm being naive, but I would like this board to continue as the Sasquatch board. We could be more active on the Non-Sasquatch Discussion side of things, but in the (perhaps unlikely) event Sasquatch does return in 2020 or beyond, we wouldn't be able to change the URL a second time. This. Officially, Sasquatch is just on hiatus for 2019. It's not totally dead yet. Of course, when/if it comes back, it won't be the same without Snacks at the helm but I wouldn't go completely rebranding the forum just yet. Maybe I'm just being overly optimistic (God knows it wouldn't be the first time I've been guilty of that around here), but I'm not ready to give up on Sasquatch completely yet. Your optimism has mostly been on point to date, which is no small feat. My only concern with remaining the Sasquatch board is that even if non-Sasquatch discussion gets expanded, the new user draw may be a degree lower. The key in either event is to sustain an active userbase, and so a collective effort to make new topics and further new discussions will be required. TL;DR stop posting in/lock the shitposting threads and start more topics about artists/albums/events!

I still come here every day even if I have nothing to add. I'll be needing to fill a Sasquatch sized hole come lineup release season, so hopefully there's something local that we can get excited for. I'm glad I'm not the only one who checks in on this place daily.

Oops forgot Deafheaven - Ordinary Corrupt Human Love Way better than New Bermuda, and I quite liked that album. Waiting for the vinyl is the stupidest thing I've ever done, but I got my shipping notification today so I can't back down now.

I'm all for pressing forward into a bold new frontier. And who knows, rebranding as a more general PNW music forum may lead to an uptick in activity down the road. I'd hate to see this place join the ranks of the internet's ghost towns.

Not much I recognize in the undercard, but Florence / War on Drugs / St. Vincent / Chromeo makes those top lines pretty solid.
