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

Do chubbystackz, Pea, davers, or whoever else has connections have any idea why the lineup is being held until February? If they're sharing crossover numbers, obviously the lineup is done (and probably has been done since at least November). Is it a Live Nation mandate that they don't want the lineup to be lost in the sea of other lineups being released right now? Is there an artist near the top of the lineup who isn't announcing a tour until February, so they're waiting for the artist? What's the deal?

I heard GoldenVoice had to fork over 700k per weekend for them. The initial Coachella forum post leaking Jamiroquai said, "700k for both weekends." I took that to mean total, not per weekend. Of course, I'm arguing with an anonymous person on the internet by citing another anonymous person on the internet, but what else am I going to do tonight?

The only way I see him coming to the Gorge is if he does an OutKast and just plays all the festivals all summer, and there’s just not enough evidence to support that idea yet. On January 13, 2014, after Coachella and Governors Ball had announced their lineups, OutKast announced they were going to play 40-plus festivals around the world. There isn't yet any similar indication from Eminem. Yes, he's playing three spring US festivals and Inforoo has him rumored for Bonaroo too, but it's nothing like OutKast... yet.

It seems like he might be doing a play-every-festival-to-become-relevant-again tour, but the fact that he's not doing Hangout has me hopeful. Dude has almost 38 million monthly Spotify listeners. Still relevant. Probably too relevant for Sasquatch.

Hopefully these acts will start releasing tour schedules now and we can look for west coast legs either before or after Boston Calling We can at least rule out Khalid, who plays Seattle 5/3.

Just want to state for the record that despite him being on all three lineups released so far this week, Eminem isn't playing Sasquatch 2018. He would be, by far, the biggest act ever to play, and I don't think it's happening.

And by the way Jeff Rosenstock is touring with his new album, skips the the northwest and ends in early May. #jeffsquatch This is true, but his tour doesn't scream Sasquatch to me the way Phoebe Bridgers', who plays Portland but not Seattle, does. I don't think he's especially likely based on those dates.

i heard something about Alex G once... Stackz, is this some sort of hint we shouldn't ignore?

Unsurprisingly because they're close to each other a weekend apart, Boston Calling and Governors Ball have 12 crossovers: Eminem, Jack White, Khalid, BROCKHAMPTON, Belly, Maggie Rogers, Alvvays, Manchester Orchestra, Dirty Projectors, Pond, The Menzingers, and Westside Gunn & Conway. Doesn't necessarily mean anything for Sasquatch unless some of those acts play Boston Calling Friday because I'd be surprised if they went Boston -> Gorge -> New York in one week.

I see the Decemberists lurking on Boston Calling's lineup. Let's not forget: I worry about getting their big setup across the country in 1.5 days. I don't think that's a prohibitive restriction for professional road crews in 2018. Some of those 11 crossovers will have the guitars and drums.

Yo Bjorksquatch, what's the deal with Oh Sees playing Coachella, but Thee Oh Sees playing Boston Calling? Just a typo?

Since every other festival lineup seems to be dropping early this year, what are the odds that sasquatch's will also? Ticketmaster says, "General public onsale starts on Sat 02/10/18 @ 10:00 am PST." That indicates to me the lineup will be out the beginning of that week, so around 2/5.

Eleven crossovers for a festival happening the exact same three days on the other side of the country? That's surprising.
