I'm stoked for this lineup. It's about 45 minutes from my house so it seems like a no brainer. I just wish it was more like $250 instead of $325. Excited nonetheless.
If I can figure out the camping situation and how to go to the venue (as I don't drive), I am seriously considering this.
Take the Airporter from Sea-Tac to Ellensburg and then find a ride (Uber/Taxi?) from there. Take the train from Seattle to Wenatchee and then find a ride from there. Also might be a Rock n Roll Shuttle from Seattle. $60 to camp

This narrative that Coachella abandoned rock and good music is odd to me. While there isn't a rock headliner, there's plenty of good rock and guitar acts in the undercard. Heck, as silver06 pointed out, there's more rock in the top lines than in recent years. Outside of Coachella, I haven't seen an American fest lineup represent so much in quality pop, hip-hop, R&B, electronic ranging from bigroom to house and techno, jazz, latin and other genres. Why does there need to be a rock headliner at all?
Not to say Sasquach ain't great, it is, but acting like it's a savior of American festivals while Coachella abandoned quality music is just plain wrong. Hell, one of their top four is playing this year (David Byrne) and one subbed last year (Bon Iver). The article even mentions several acts also playing Coachella this year: Benjamin Clementine, Big Thief, Tyler, the Creator and Vince Staples. Plus, Pond played last year and Anderson .Paak is all but guaranteed to take up a spot on the top line, hell sub perhaps, next year.
It's actually a pretty shitty article, but it digs Coachella a bunch of times needlessly (then praises Sasquatch for booking artists like Byrne, Tyler, Vince, Big Thief, Benjamin Clementine, etc. who are all playing Coachella too) so I'm sure you enjoyed it. Reads like it was written by a 17 year old who just started reading Pitchfork last year.

That first paragraph is painful. I can just imagine that dude jerking himself off while he wrote the “The music that helped change the world over the past 50 years” line.
But as others have pointed out, he did go on praise some legit great acts that are ether also playing Coachella or have played recently. So that part was nice.
