For some reason, I thought more people around here would like Bob Mould.

Yes! YES! I don't know what that means, BUT OH HELL YES!!! Day drunk at the Gorge campground can be very dangerous. Waking up around 9am (at the latest) with a beer, and drinking a couple per hour until 7pm means you are almost a case of beer deep. You might want to plan a midday nap. Trust me. Thanks for the advise, but I am a music festival veteran and I've taken a few math classes in my time. I know what I'm getting into. In fact, I won't be arriving until the afternoon on Friday, and I'm familiar with laws regarding open alcohol in cars. I also have an uncanny ability to sleep at Sasquatch. I will not be awake at 9am once that weekend, but I wouldn't necessarily count out sleep drinking.

NO WE'RE ALL NEW @ ALCOHOL OK Haha, well I've passed out at the Gorge before, not at Sasquatch, but one of those day drunk situations. A security guard woke me up when the show ended, saying, "hey drunk guy, the show is over." Then he stole my pint of whiskey I never opened. This was over ten years ago. I also got day drunk during Phish two summers ago. I had to take a nap, and missed the first song of their set, which happened to be my favorite Phish song of all time. One of my day drunk buddies passed out in the pit during the first set. He took an afternoon nap too.

The last time I passed out due to day drunkness I woke up to hours of drunk moped rides. Sometimes good things come of it!

That is why I mentioned it. A normal day drunk in the city you live in means you are casually drinking with a bunch of strangers who are probably sober. A normal day drunk at the Gorge campground involved bonging beers with strangers at noon, because it's a huge party. We've never had an opportunity for day drunk at Sasquatch like this. Thus the warning.

Fair enough. Due to my situation I am not in much danger, but others should definite heed this advice. It's better for Friday to be a failure to you than for you to be a failure to Friday.

Do two failures make a winner?

I suppose if both fail then no harm, no foul.

Bob Mould is AMAZING live. He plays a good ammount of Husker Du and Sugar songs and injects the same material into the live versions of his solo stuff.
Saw him a couple years ago and it may have been the best show I saw that year.
So very very very good. Huge win for Friday.

Sasquatch sure seems to love booking the has-been's and never-will-be's.

Even Chromeo themselves must be aware that they are not talented musicians. What they are is talented performers, as well as fun, fun, fun!

I also got day drunk during Phish two summers ago. I had to take a nap, and missed the first song of their set, which happened to be my favorite Phish song of all time. Was that Down with Disease or The Mango Song? I was there on Saturday. Phish concerts are the best! So much energy, dancing, and fun!

Chromeo is too much for me. I get a good kick out of their music, I usually sit and laugh my ass off for a while, and then I just have to turn it off. I can see their appeal but they are way too cheeseball for me. I feel like I'm listening to a Flight of The Conchords song. I am excited to see them at Sasquatch but I can't listen to their albums on a regular basis.
