Thanks for the update.
Probably just dates, but it would be great if they added a 4th day. Even just night shows on that Friday night would be awesome. A couple up and coming bands and maybe some djs on Friday night would be a great way to kick off the weekend.
I agree, it can't be a line-up already but they could give us a hint on one or two of the headliners. Get the speculation train rolling.

I think they booked a few large acts this year, and that they will announce a headliner tomorrow. I don't think just the dates would really be considered a big announcement unless they are going to a 4 day festival

What a crock of SHIT!!!! So we're supposed to blindly buy tickets to a 3 day concert just to be seen? ?? I love throwing $170 + another $150 for camping in a bottle and tossing it into the sea to see if it'll come back to me 10 miles down the road.

Yeah man, This is pretty sketchy.
$170 early bird is on par with their last specials... and I think it has been clear from the start that Premiere Camping is the way to go, and that shit already sells out first anyways. So....
a) You buy Tickets because Pavement on its own is worth it (it certainly is for me) b) You buy Tickets because Sasquatch always, more or less, rules. (Though I skipped last year because I didn't get excited about one headliner).

Except premiere camping sucked balls last year. It was essentially normal camping with showers. So I'm actually planning for hotel this upcoming year.

Premier wasn't as good as what they billed it to be, but it was definitely quieter than regular camping. Easier to get sleep which is helpful. Plus the bus that took you into the festival was nice. But they said there would be more showers and there were only 2 and they said there would be free coffee but there wasn't any, so that was a big let down. If they dont raise the price of premier camping (I think it was only $50ish more than regular) its probably worth it just to be able to get to sleep earlier.

We stood by where we were told buses would be the first day to get in, they kept pushing the time by 30 minutes to and hour every fucking time. They had mis informed staff and it was really annoying. Plus the fact that the buses drop off at the main gate now instead of taking you into the venue. Premier camping was supposed to make everything easier, or that's what it's marketed as. When the only thing "easier" is sleeping, bullshit. I didn't sleep easier. We had the Canadians who could "see the pain" in the singer of Kings of Leon's eyes. In 08 staff came and shut people down at a certain time, didn't happen this year. Hotel.
