I know its a bit late but for all you beautiful people i'd like to go into detail how i utilized my ticket to sasquatch, it goes as follows.
11:45 AM got to campgrounds a little late, missed Blue Scholars but no biggie
12:00 PM got to actual festival watched all of the girls jump around like raving lunatics while Adam Brody played drums. Watched tail end of 1. Pretty Girls make Graves
( I kind of lost all track of time for a while so im just naming the events as they come to me )
Slept while Nada Surf played, very relaxing and calming
2. Went into pit for Arctic Monkey, these guys are definetly the next big thing, talk about British Invasion
3. Pushed my way to the front and could actually sense the presense of the Decemberists, great stage presence
4. Took a break from pit during Matisyahu, ( I had been standing for a couple hours and hadn't drank anything the entire day)
5. Found way back into Mosh for Queens of the Stone Age. I suppose it was some kind of sign for leaving the pit earlier, but during QOFSA I got punched in the chest, bruisign my chest plate pretty badly. I moved back for a little while and recovered.
6. Death Cab took the stage and was as usual great only problem was the sun had set by now and i was pretty frozen even though i was surrounded by people.
7. Grand Finale: Beck makes his way to the stage in puppet form and real form and rocks the hell out of everyone. Amazing stage presence.
( resume real time )
12:30 AM By now i had lost all my friends so i just went back to the campsite.
1:00 Took congradulatory double shot courtesy of clarence and went to bed.
Bottom Line AMAZING
