Hey I-8. Get in on this. I'm interested to see what you list. I think the old guy might of passed out from one of two things... - all the frantic, unorganized posting on this forum made him blow a gasket, fall out of his lay-z-boy and knock his head on the floor. - or he's just senile and old, and needs to get to bed early I kid of course.

This is the thread where you can post the top 10 acts you are most looking forward to seeing at Sasquatch for 2010.
Feel free to expand beyond your top ten if you are that excited.

You all owe me $20.00. Plus I earn the double or nothing for guessing The New Pornographers. I wonder if they are actually on the same plane and landing at that nearby airport

Camera Obscura is in the US this Spring. Their tour dates end April 25th, but they play Portland, Eugene and Bellingham. Nothing in Seattle.
Not a hugely solid rumour, but no Seattle dates leads me to believe they might be at Sasquatch
Edit...I don;t believe anyone has mentioned them yet, but if so...sorry for the repetition

Okay, I have been following this because I am a huge fan, I believe I can now make this a viable rumour... Tallest Man on Earth has added American dates to his tour. He has a date set up for Vancouver (Yes!!!!) and Portland, but no dates in Washinton State. His tour dates conveniently end May 28th. He may be just as likely to go to the Summercamp Festival (as his tour ends in Illinois - where Summercamp is), but I am hoping nonetheless he comes to Sasquatch. www.deadoceans.com/shows.php

Summercamp festival is a jam band festival taking place in Illinois the same weekend as Sasquatch. Here is their initial lineup:
The Avett Brothers, Backyard Tire Fire, Bassnectar, Brainchild, Chicago Farmer, Cornmeal, Dangermuffin, EOTO, Family Groove Company, Gov’t Mule, The Hood Internet, Keller Williams, Kinetix, The Macpodz, moe., The Ragbirds, STS9, That 1 Guy, Umphrey’s McGee, Yonder Mountain String Band
Although they pander to different musical tastes, their is a little crossover of bands... Typically, bands will not make it to both festivals (however I believe Girl Talk did last year). You can therefore more than likely count out these aforementioned bands.
However, I find it's also important to see that certain crossover bands like MMJ and the Flaming Lips did not sign up for Summer Camp, thus keeping their weekend available for a particular NW festival.

King Khan & the Shrines is playing Seattle and Van in April. Looks like a return visit is unlikely. Too bad, they put a great show on last year. But I will no doubt see them in Van anyways.

I don't know about you guys but i really want to see sleigh bells there. if you haven't checked out their myspace you definitely should. Their live show is supposed to be pretty great as well Crown on the Ground is so fucking explosive I just about jump through the roof every time I hear it. It may get a little repetitive after awhile, but for now I love it. Honestly, a song hasn't pumped me up so much since I first listened to 'Killing In The Name Of' back when I was 14. I think that song created so much testosterone in my body that it got me to finally hit puberty

I would be happy with any and all of these. Obviously its unreasonable to hope for even half showing up, as I realize it's about as top-heavy as a portobello mushroom. I know there are a few return acts, but most have not performed before.
Headliners:
Pearl Jam Daft punk Arcade Fire Phish Phoenix Spoon Leonard Cohen Wilco
Everyone else:
Thermals Cake The Hold Steady LCD Soundsystem Destroyer MGMT Sufjan Stevens Caribou Clap Your Hands and Say Yeah These United States Dinosaur Jr. Ween The Knife tallest man on earth Sleigh Bells The Cave Singers Rural Alberta Advantge Pedro the Lion Belle And Sebastian Handsome Furs Tea Leaf Green Ray LaMontagne Dirty Projectors Ted Leo Kurt Vile Shout Out Louds Joe Pug
I imagine I am missing a bunch, so I may do another one closer to the release date.

Interstateeight,
We are not all as blessed as you are to have the ability to keep up with the indie rock scene so fervidly.
How should we define you as a poster on this board? 'Indie Rock God' comes to mind, however I might prefer 'Indie Rock Princess'. If I meet you at Sasquatch, I sincerely hope you are wearing super tight jeans, coke-bottle black rimmed glasses and some sort of fedora. And a beard, because if you don't have a beard, well then I just don't think I could consider you authentic enough for this festival.
Personally I am looking forward to seeing 'the henry clay people', and 'heartless bastards'. Although they may no longer be considered under the radar by your standards, I was certainly happy with their late add-ons.

does OutKast fit the reunion headliner and the "Kanye West-like" slot?
I wouldn't mind Toad The Wet sprocket, just not as a healiner.

I wonder when this insider says that two of th ebands are repeat headliners, does that mean that they have headlined before? or have just been to Sasquatch before as a sub headliner. That would at least open up the possibilities of other bands (Like MMJ, modest mouse, etc...
Because other than Arcade Fire and the Flaming lips, and Beck I guess, I wouldn't be impressed by any other headliners (especially NIN, whom I saw at Pemberton last year - and enjoyed, I just don't like their music enough to want to see the light show again).
