I've got it to work for Pretty Lights, Disclosure, and Macklemore (which automatically changed to macklemore-and-ryan-lewis)
David guetta too unfortunately. Hopefully this redirect loop keeps us safe from a couple of these acts..

I'm slowly losing my faith in this game. But lastly, when you search for "joey-badass", it returns the URL as "joey-bada", which would imply that they used the $ symbol and it won't appear in the URL.. I hate this.

I refuse to believe it is just a fluke. At the very least, these are acts that they were considering or trying to book, but for whatever reason it didn't happen (yet) and they still have a page somewhere for them that didn't get deleted. The only one that pokes a hole in that theory is Macklemore, but I'm pretty sure they have a standing artist page ready for him every year, just in case.

I was about to say that maybe the redirect loop only happens for bands that were previously on the lineup...but I dont think Florence ever performed at Sasquatch.

Some other interesting ones: "Jay-z" changes the URL to "Kanye-west", and Robyn brings back "salt-n-pepa-".
WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN? Besides illuminati...

Add Mac DeMarco, The Jesus & Mary Chain, Mastodon, Neon Indian, and Cloud Nothings to this conspiracy. Ok, I'm really done now. This is just going to lead to one big letdown.

I was wondering what the fuck Dr Who had to do with illuminati, then I realized that's Bob Dylan.

The reason so many of these work (such as Mac Demarco, Local Natives, Arcade Fire) is because these are all bands that have played Sasquatch before. If you get a redirect for a band that hasn't been there I think it would mean something. Sorry if this was already posted.
Haha it actually does change "kanye-west" or "jay-z" and "tupac" to "kid-cudi"

There are plenty of Sasquatch alumni in which that theory doesn't apply. At this point it's anyone's guess what the hell the errors mean or don't mean.

I think Macklemore is always a possibility, and wouldn't be surprised if they just announced a residency saying he would be there every Friday for every Sasquatch to come from here to eternity.

What if the Friday Headliner is also going to announce a tour but is still in the works and they haven't announced yet?

I've already seen them twice but I think I have to make the journey to Seattle for this one.

I mean the point of a headliner is to drum up ticket sales. If you can sell your festival on three headliners (which they'll be able to tell already) they don't need to announce another headliner to sell out the festival. So pick one headliner that will be a Spring Surprise.
