David Byrne is playing Seattle May 24th and Portland May 27th. What a convenient gap! This guy fucks.

I just saw Halsey on SNL. No offense to her character, but I hope this is not what Sasquatch 2018 has in store for us.

Yes, you are right that they are possible. They have no tour dates after 5/5, have no upcoming tour dates in the PNW, and played Sasquatch in 2011.

One of the artists the Count points out is playing a lot of festivals is Conway, billed on these festivals as "Westside Gunn + Conway." Conway is signed to Eminem's Shady Records, and is billed at all the festivals Eminem is also playing. Doesn't mean anything definitively re: Sasquatch, but just another wrench is the "let's solve Sasquatch with math!" attempts.

The next time (whenever that is) Pearl Jam plays the Gorge it will be a standalone show. Yes, you're probably right. But then what do you think Zacks has up his sleeves?

But my main point either way is that Manchester have their specific days for each fest posted which shows they could in theory go calling>bottlerock>sas I don't know if everyone has ignored this or just me, but this is incredibly significant. Here's Manchester Orchestra's tour dates: themanchesterorchestra.com/tour/ Their official website does list 5/26 for BottleRock, which I think is weird, but does toss out our theory that they couldn't also play Sasquatch because they have 5/27 available.

Killers go from bottlerock TO boston.... manchester goes from Boston TO BottleRock... I have a reliable source on this one. How does the direction of travel affect a band's ability to play Sasquatch? Or is it unrelated, just facts?

Whoa are they still touring without those guys? I remember hearing about that last year but had no idea it would continue. What was the deal with them not participating in the live shows? Just not wanting to be on the road anymore? I don't think there has been an update since this tweet, but I know they weren't at their Portland show this fall.

Random thought on the Killers (who, I don't know if it's come up yet or not, are playing BottleRock and Boston Calling, so they're probably out for Sasquatch) I don't think I've shared online yet: really a fantastic job by their manager selling this festival headlining tour because they're not really the Killers anymore. Both their original lead guitarist and near-original bassist have left the live show, so it's just Brandon Flowers, drummer Ronnie Vannucci Jr, and a bunch of random touring musicians. How much different is that really from Brandon Flowers' solo tour, during which he performed "Read My Mind," "Mr. Brightside," "Jenny Was a Friend of Mine," and "Human" at nearly every show ( per setlist.fm)? I know there's a long history of popular bands continuing on after losing original members (and in the case of bands like Journey and Lynyrd Skynyrd, lead vocalists), but I don't think there's much precedent for it in the modern festival era. I can only think of AC/DC, but that band is from a different era than the Killers.

Pond's website lists 5/25 for Boston Calling. If they're actually playing that date, I don't expect them to be at Sasquatch. However, their website also lists 6/1 for Governors Ball (6/1-3) and 6/7 for Bonnaroo (6/7-10), so unless they really are playing the first day of all three festivals, I think the first day of the festival is just a placeholder date. Usually artists' websites will list all of the dates for the festival instead of just the first date before the daily schedules are released, but whatever.

Actually, what indeed? Where are these tour dates coming from? Twitter searches for "david byrne portland" and "david byrne seattle" produce no relevant results. Maybe this user has some insider knowledge, but there's no public information available yet that I can find.

I don't know about probable, but their first show after Boston Calling being 5/29 in Philadelphia implies they'll play the last day of BC (5/27) unless they want a huge gap, and we know they'll be on the west coast in San Francisco on 5/23, so they could go SF 5/23 -> Sasquatch 5/25 -> Boston Calling 5/27. Certainly possible, and they're playing Boston Calling, Governors Ball, and Bonnaroo with no PNW dates. Hmm, maybe they are probable. I think I'll add them to the rumours list tonight.
