Last year, we just went on one day. They have single day passes available if you can't go for all 3 days.

Great concert for a good cause! Those poor sasquatch need all the help they can get to rectify their poor public image:)

That's a matter of taste. I think that there are many good bands playing at the festival.

Your profile shows that you live in Maine. You'd seriously consider going from there to Washington state for a music festival? :Q

Nope, won't go. First off, camping prices are outrageous, as are show ticket prices. Sure, relatively cheap, but to have to drive to Central Washington it's not worth it. Everytime I've camped at the Gorge I've had bad luck dealing with drunk and stoned morons. Another crappy thing is mainstage acts rarely get more than 45 minutes tops.

All that being said...

I'd be interested in The Flaming Lips, Shins, Neko Case, Iron&Wine, Sufjan Stevens, Beck, and Chad Vangaalen.

I'll be there on Saturday and Sunday. I hate Ticketbastard's price gouging ridiculous fee festooned ass however, so I'm trying to pickup tickets on Craigs. Hope to see some of you there!

Looking forward to Damien Jurado, Iron & Wine, and the Decemberists.

Man, both Bonaroo's and Sasquatch's lineups are more appealing then ACL's this year. I was a little dissapointed when I saw ACL's line up. And I already have 3 tix for it.

I'll be there on Sunday. Spouse couldn't get time off from work on Friday, and I couldn't justify the expense (double the ticket price-almost 140 bucks extra plus lodging) when I was really only excited about seeing one or two of the Saturday bands. If I could have seen NIN on Friday, it would have been worth it.

There are a lot of those in there that I would like to see. Too bad I'm at the opposite corner of the US.

BTW, last summer, the cherry pie at the Martha Inn sucked bad...wasn't worth the stop...MAYBE during the big GW b-day celebration it's still good, but it sure wasn't last August...
