Sasquatch 2010 ROLL CALL!!!

[Erik26]

Sasquatch.com finally has their Schedule/ Schedule maker working. Here is a link to mine

It's a neat interactive schedule they have came up with. For the record I am only attending Vampire Weekend because they are right before MMJ and i don't feel like fighting my way back down to the front. I saw Vampire Weekend in 2008 at Pemberton Festival and they were not good. I'm hoping they have improved. Brad (Stone Gossard) just got added today in place of some rapper. I am super pumped for Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, BSS, MTB...well everyone on my schedule except Vampire Weekend. If you are going to the show take a few seconds and sign up for this so we can all compare schedules and plan meet ups ect. Can't wait!!

lol Eric.  I, too, am not stoked about Vampire Weekend but I will be at Main Stage pretty much all day on Saturday since there's a lot there I want to see, and I don't want to fight for the rail for the Jacket!

Although I have not met anyone here, I will be at Sasquatch!
Decided on this instead of Roo because MMj was not going to be at roo.
Staying in the VIP camping area.

[Erik26]

Welcome Mentos! Sasquatch should be killer. Why don't you go to their schedule site ( http://www.sasquatchfestival.com/ ) and fill in your schedule and post the link to it here so we can see it!

So how many forum members are going? Make yourself known!

[mentos]

hmmm....filled in some...seems like I may be running around....will have to decide either to run around or squat at the main stage for MMJ.

It's not really hard to get up close for the mainstage acts at Sasquatch.  There are always campers on the rail, but the pit is pretty fluid - people move around a lot, and it's not typically crowded.  I was able to walk right up to about the 10th row the year REM played, and almost to the rail (on the side) while the Flaming Lips were playing.

Good luck mentos!

[mentos]

thanks...that means I may be able to fit in nada surf!

[Erik26]

See, I went with the other mentality. I am going to suffer through Vampire Weekend so I don't have to fight to get where I want to be for MMJ.
Mentos, looking at your schedule I see you are going to skip the second half of the National for the Hold Steady...I'm not saying for sure but after seeing the National on Letterman they are going to be there to melt faces and suck in new fans. I'm not sure if many will be able to leave during their set. I wanted to see the Hold Steady as well but IMO it just won't be as good.

To all attending; my number is 403 461 3040 and my Black Berry pin is 31330AFE.

[vespachick]

I see you are going to skip the second half of the National for the Hold Steady..

I'm so on-board with Erik's stance.  I confess that I will be one of the faithful in front of mainstage all day on Saturday but as luck would have it I like it all (minus VW). And while it is true that I'm not a fan of the Hold Steady, The National will in fact MELT.YOUR.FACE. Guaronteed.  It would be a sad thing to miss them if you've never seen 'em live.  :D

Speaking of Face...where she be?

[mentos]

that be my wish list, subject to change at any point in time.
If the National is hitting it, I see no reason to leave the area.

[Erik26]

1 week everybody!!!! I am getting ridiculously excited!

I am super pumped to see Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros

If you haven't heard of or seen these guys before, think of Arcade Fire in their early stages.

Also Portugal, The Man is streaming their new album on myspace.

IMO Edward Sharpe is about to blow up and this will be the last year to see them on a secondary stage, early in the day. So don't miss it!!

[restlesssoul]

hey all.

i just happened to get the saturday off, have enough funds and am willing to drive from vancouver.

now, any idea on tickets? gonna check stub hub now....

see you there..cant wait for this!

[vespachick]

So if any of you are in General Camping this year, me and the old man will be there all weekend.  Look for us under the flag (with special thanks to Brad for the Flying V image :-*).  It's the same on both sides, except for the owl face.  Also, that's NOT my pink backpack - it belongs to the 8-year old! :P:
