Sasquatch happens to be at the same time as Primavera, so that particular weekend definitely makes it tougher. I think the issue is that the bands we'd like to see headline (both established acts and up-and-comers) aren't receiving the type of turnout that they used to, which makes them unattractive to festival bookers. This is not just the case in the USA, but also at the bigger European festivals. Which becomes a self-perpetuating cycle for the future. Think of large alternative/subversive 90's and 2000-era acts such as RATM, Tool, Bjork, Sigur Ros, Underworld, The Prodigy, Radiohead, and Portishead that managed to grow and become huge (i.e., top of the bill, arena sized). If those acts started off in the past few years, would they be able to become just as big?
Well I think it is going to be an act by act type of thing. Some acts that have come out recently like Bon Iver, The xx, RTJ, Kendrick, ect. are doing some really amazing stuff and I think 10 years from now, people will be saying the same thing about them. Fads come and go. Unfortunately college kids these days like some pretty horrible music. But that'll come and go too.
Those bands you mentioned are all indeed great. But the thing with catering to college kids these days is that it's all about the party, which results in top slots for "high energy" acts like Twenty One Pilots, Marshmello, Travi$ Scott, and so forth. You don't have to know the songs to enjoy them, it'll be lit and turnt the fuck up!
Pretty Lights Live announced a mini-fest up at the Gorge 8/4 and 8/5. It's PL Live, STS9, Tipper, Atmosphere (Blah but whatever), Manic Focus, Lettuce, Cherub, Chali 2Na, Marvel Years, Maddie O'Neal and more...
Wonder if "production delays" has anything to do with getting his setup / rig / show from Alabama to Seattle to Barcelona in 10 days?
Maybe he just ultimately decided to bail on Sasquatch with the logistics of it all? At least that's what I'm hoping given I want to see him in a few weeks...
Hey 'Squatchers (is that the right term??), I was just discussing how if Fleet Foxes happen to play Sasquatch this year I'd consider going and figured I'd come ask if anyone had thoughts on other artists that might be on the lineup.
Would like some advance warning in case I decide I should drop everything and find my way to Washington this May. Normally my Memorial Day Weekend belongs to Boston Calling, but it's about time I see this Gorge everyone raves about.
