Sasquatch! Festival Lineup Announced
With the customary two-season gloom of the Pacific Northwest beginning to burn off, it would only make sense that the beam of sunlight that is the 2010 Sasquatch! lineup would be announced this week. Also, that shit is held in an amphitheater, so the idea of rain and a roofless arena is a little disheartening. (Good timing!)
Held over Memorial weekend just outside of Seattle, WA, Sasquatch! is an eco-friendly music festival which takes place in the Gorge Amphitheater. Since its inception in 2002, the festival’s lineup has become increasingly impressive with this year’s headliners including My Morning Jacket, Massive Attack, Pavement and Ween.
