I'd also like to see Freelance Whales. They're a new Frenchkiss band that I've really been digging. They seem like they'd be fun to see live.

I'd really like to see some of these at Sasquatch 2010: Sigur Ros Iron & Wine Dr. Dog Blonde Redhead Kay Kay & His Weathered Underground Why? Arctic Monkeys Weinland My Morning Jacket The Weakerthans Margot & The Nuclear So and So's The Dodos Cloud Cult mewithoutYou The Hold Steady Black Mountain The Polyphonic Spree Portugal. The Man Spoon Animal Collective The Snake The Cross The Crown The Shins Muse Russian Circles Manchester Orchestra Death Cab For Cutie Fleet Foxes Grandaddy Brand New Band of Horses Radiohead Cold War Kids The Mars Volta The Flaming Lips Mute Math Modest Mouse French Kicks Evaline Would love to see Manchester Orchestra, Cloud Cult, and especially The Weakerthans. Don't know how Brand New would do, but I do remember reading about Jesse Lacey abusing the audience at a festival for seeing his band instead of Explosions in the Sky. My problem with Brand New is that while they have changed and moved on as a band, their fans seem to stay the same. I actually wasn't impressed with Brand New the one time I saw them live, but I would like to see some of the stuff off of "Daisy" live. I love that they keep putting out new material that actually sounds and feels new. I have heard that Cloud Cult is done touring, but it may just be a rumor.

I don't know how "under the radar" they are, but I hadn't heard Doves before Sasquatch, and I thought they were really good.

I really enjoyed Animal Collective. The audio/visual mix during their performance was great, in my opinion. It really set a weird atmosphere.

1. Explosions in the Sky - definitely who I was looking forward to seeing the most, and they did not disappoint. 2. Blitzen Trapper - happy they played mostly newer stuff (the stuff I'm familiar with) 3. Fleet Foxes - sounded amazing live, incredible musicians 4. Of Montreal - didn't know what to expect but their live show was definitely interesting. In a good way. And in a dancy way 5. Bon Iver - wasn't sure how the sound would translate live, but they pulled it off very, very well. Other highlights: TV on the Radio, The Walkmen, Animal Collective, Viva Voce, Grizzly Bear, Doves, Devotchka, and I actually really enjoyed Jane's Addiction

I would think a flask would be the best way to get alcohol in through the gates. $11 for a tall can is expensive, but I would think it would be pretty tough to smuggle more than one tall can through the gate, if even that?

Are you just going to leave your dog there all day long? I'm not sure what the policy is on pets in the campground, but bringing animals doesn't make much sense to me.
