SASQUATCH! Music Festival

[lukescrazyarms]

ssg music is announcing it via twitter

Edit: god damn I need to become a faster typer

[JELLYFI5H]

This is one of the 3 I want to go to that far away sometime in this life. Coachella and Electric forrest are the others. All mainly because of their venues.

Though, hangout + this will be really hard to do.


Not that any of you needed to know that...

[Pale Hose]

Has anyone in here been? If so, thoughts?

[Phi]

Mayo has. Apparently there was a lot of biznatching about the camping? Its like super far away from the venue or something.

[cory's beard]

IT'S HAPPENING!

[cory's beard]

Mumford, Vampire Weekend, Postal Service, Sigur Ros, Primus, The xx

[Phi]

Alt-J, Lumineers

WOW @ empire of the sun... Man if roo gets them...

[Pale Hose]

Father John Misty is going to be to the festival circuit in 2013 what Gary Clark Jr. was in 2012

[Katy Mae]

There is so much on that lineup that I hope is at Bonnaroo this year.

[Phi]

Jesus CHRIST Sasquatch just went the F*CK OFF! I want to go!

[rosko]

It's annoying going through it all on that poster, but that is an extremely deep lineup. No real surprises at all, though.

EDIT: Why is Macklemore so high on the poster? Home field advantage? I know he's gotten really big but bigger than Vampire Weekend or Sigur Ros? I don't think so.

[Phi]

That lineup is so good from top to bottom! I'm prepared to drop a festival I already had planned for this! Especially since I'm already planning on going to EDC Chicago that weekend.

If you don't mind me asking, what makes it so spectacular in your opinion?

Yeah this is blowing my mind that he/they are headlining one of the 4 nights. I'm sure Bonnaroo has them booked and they will be on the same level or higher than Mac Miller?

Looks very solid though I really didn't know Macklemore was that big, even for a Washington fest. John Talabot and Holy Ghost are both awesome surprises to see on there. I think Mumford at Sasquatch would be the perfect place to catch them.

Oh and Sigur Ros in that setting. Holy Quack! If I can afford this I think that'll be the thing that pushes me over the edge for going.

The undercard. Its stacked. From top to bottom. It has every single "hot" band in 2013 on it. Holy shiz they got Talabot?

[aquariumdrunk]

Sh*t's deep.

[Phi]

Lol @ their official poster saying "Meet lots of wild awesome people, and a couple bros you just as soon forget"

[ilovethisgame]

I'm going through the lineup and sampling the one song posted for each artist right now - see what I figure out!

I think he/they will be much, much, much lower on the Bonnaroo lineup than the Sasquatch lineup. Like I said, I think it's just the home field advantage, him being from Seattle. I don't think he'll be any higher than Mac Miller was, but I could be wrong.

[JELLYFI5H]

Man... It is great. They really do a good job. I need to do some more research.

Nobody else want to really see empire of the sun?

They also promote "glowsticks glowsticks glowsticks glowsticks" wich is rare.

[rosko]

Bravo to the graphic designer for their website. That thing is gorgeous right now (so is the poster, it's just a pain in the ass to go through artist-by-artist).

Graphic designers are awesome. ;D ;D ;D


PS.

Shad!

[gabfrab]

From the Sasquatch boards:

"117 names so far this year. 132 played last year"

I don't really know how they do lineup additions. I seem to remember last year that they just added a name or two every now and then.

[cory's beard]

Quack this confusing ass poster. Didn't catch Earl Sweatshirt until like the 3rd time over.

[rosko]

I'd really love to see Bonnaroo book Mike Birbiglia for the comedy tent. That'd be a perfect comedian to catch some AC to on early Saturday afternoon.

Also, I really hope Bonnaroo books Disclosure; every other major festival seems to be.
