I'll be heading down to the sasquatch festival next week. Here's a preview of the tentitive schedule I'll be following. With three stages and too many people this could get loud.
Blind Pilot
1:30-2:15 Wookie stage
The last Sasquatch festival I went to this happened to me. One of the bands I'm most excited to see plays early the first day, last time I missed it. I'm hoping we get to the Gorge earlier this year. I'm not sure how the layered album vocals will be reproduced on the big stage, but I'm psyched to see these guys.
Passion Pit
2:35-3:20 Wookie Stage
When the lineup first came out I had Doves in this time slot, but recent developments, and the realization that these guys are doing that damn thing have led me to change my mind.
M. Ward
3:25-4:10 Sasquatch stage
M. Ward's new album is way better than She and Him.
Shearwater
4:45-5:35 Wookie stage
I may or may not make the treck from stage to stage to see theses guys. I know people who love them. I think the guy should have just stayed with Okkervil River.
Animal Collective
5:40-6:40 Sasquatch stage
guaranteed to be hipster central. I like the new album, and I'll be there for sure. This show will kick ass, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to take all the people around me.
Ra Ra Riot
6:30-7:15 Yeti stage
I'm not sure why these guys are playing the Yeti stage, but I think it will make for a more intimate setting, if that's possible at a festival. This is going to be fun.
The Decemberists
7:05-8:05 Sasquatch stage
Colin Meloy sings.
Bon Iver
8:45-9:45
what do you say, it's Bon Iver, should be awesome. I'm really looking forward to it, hopefully it's dark by then.
Kings of Leon
10:00-11:30 Sasquatch stage
If I make it this late in the day, these guys should give a good show. Or at least get in a fight with eachother.
