This may/may not be the wrong thread and if it is, MOVE IT ON UP, KNOWIDYUH!
I just got home (Seattle to San Francisco in twelve hours; SUCK IT GOOGLE) and am ready to tell you about my Sasquatch 2010 experience but I am not ready to read the like four pages of threads with new posts so my egomania is gonna take over and I'm making my own thread. You know, newjersey style, only probably angrier and with fewer bullet points.
Anyway...
TOP THREE SETS
SATURDAY: The National. Terrible Love Terrible Love Terrible Love Terrible Love Terrible Love FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
SUNDAY: Pavement. UNFUCKINGREAL. ALL THOSE SONGS. alsdkjghalsdgjh (Giant bummer story to follow shortly)
MONDAY: The Mountain Goats. No Children! Best Ever Death Metal Band! This Year! Dance Music! LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU MOTHERFUCKERS
WHY DID I DO THESE THINGS
SATURDAY: See OK Go.
SUNDAY: Not tell my girlfriend and sister to suck it the fuck up and stay longer for Public Enemy.
Also, see three songs by Girls before giving up and going to LCD Soundsystem. Now I know: Girls is all kinds of disappointing live.
MONDAY: Get drunk (drunk) at noon and miss Seattle Rock Orchestra.
I AM GOING TO FIGHT THE FUCK OUT OF YOU NEXT YEAR
-During Pavement, I was on the floor right behind the second barrier. (I hope I don't have to explain how the floor area was bisected because I don't feel like explaining it, so I hope you all paid attention.) My girlfriend and sister were leaning against it, our backpack was on the bench right on the other side, right in front of them. During "In the Mouth a Desert" (not that you all care but my favorite fucking Pavement song), the girls turn around and start frantically telling me "That guy took our backpack!" So I leap over the barrier (you might not know this but in addition to being an asshole I'm also some kind of ninja) and run this guy down. I'm about a foot away from grabbing him when security catches up with me... Long boring story short i got my stuff back and this asshole will meet his miserable end next year.
-Tall guy with the stupid fucking accent and the Down Syndrome Shimmy (that's what I opted to call the dance he was throwing out during every song) who stood in front of me during Broken Social Scene and The National. YOU ARE OLD, AND YOU LOOKED EVERYWHERE BUT AT THE STAGE DURING BSS. Clearly you are shitty and do not belong at a festival, let alone standing in front of people who are fiercely interested in seeing Broken Social Scene.
YOU GUYS, HOW FUCKING GREAT WAS SASQUATCH
Seriously, how fucking perfect was this year? Weather was optimal, bands were excellent (except Girls...), PAVEMENT PAVEMENT PAVEMENT, seriously. If it hasn't already begun, someone throw a Memorial Day 2011 countdown on the board...
