| The powers-that-be have unveiled this years lineup for the Sasquatch! Music Festival, which will be held over Memorial Day Weekend on Saturday, May 26th and Sunday, May 27th. As always, the Festival will be presented by the House of Blues and held at the Gorge Amphitheatre in George, Washington.
Last year, a hailstorm interrupted Neko Cases set and almost shut down the entire festival. "We're pissed about Neko getting hailed out," wrote Seattlest.com. "Don't even talk to us right now. We need time."
While we cant promise a weekend of sunny weather for 2007s event, we can promise itll be worth it, even if a tornado touches down during the Arcade Fires set.
The lineup:
Saturday, May 26th: Björk, Arcade Fire, Manu Chao Radio Bemba Sound System, M.I.A., Citizen Cope, Neko Case, The Hold Steady, Grizzly Bear, Ghostland Observatory, Electrelane, Two Gallants, The Slip, Loney, Dear, Aqueduct, The Thermals, Viva Voce, The Blow, Gabriel Teodros.
Sunday May 27th: Beastie Boys, Interpol, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Spoon, Bad Brains, Ozomatli, Dandy Warhols, The Black Angels, Mirah, Tokyo Police Club, Money Mark, St. Vincent, Jesse Sykes & The Sweet Hereafter, Smoosh, Common Market, Helio Sequence, Minus The Bear.
*****Those are some pretty big names, and we'd definitely travel to the northwest corner of the country if we had the means.
