Most likely the second weekend, but it'll depend on who's playing.

Bonnaroo would be my suggestion. Went 2 years ago and saw Radiohead and the Peppers. Tennessee is weird, but it's a great festival.

I did Bonnaroo in 2010. It was a great time, but man that festival is tough. I've never felt heat like that and it is a serious struggle to get through that weekend. Especially with shows going until like 5 in the morning.

I would only go back for an amazing lineup, and if the rumors about the headliners are true (Kanye and Elton John), I might have to consider heading back down!

Wow, that lineup blows. Was considering going, but I'll take a pass on that.

Here's hoping The Roots make a stop in Calgary on their way over. Last year all the headliners played in Calgary the week before (Vampire Weekend, QOTSA and Macklemore). It was awesome.

Blows might be a bit much, its not a really strong lineup, but it does blow in comparision to other festivals. That Primavera lineup is much, much better, so comparatively speaking, Squamish blows. Not getting OutKast means it blows and is a letdown.

Personal preference - from that list I'd only be interested in seeing Arcade Fire and The Roots.

Bruno Mars? Really? Eminem is terrible live. As for the rest of the bands, if you haven't seen them before it's because you didn't want to. They have almost all been through Western Canada in the last couple years, the exceptions being Lykke Li and The Roots.

Arcade Fire would be awesome, but they are playing Calgary right after the festival. Not worth it for me.

I'm assuming that means Pemberton got Outkast

Sasquatch Lineups.





Week 2 doesn't even come close to comparing with Week 1.

I think I prefer weekend 2. Super close for me anyways. Totally thrilled with both.

And I feel Coachella Friday just got way better with no Replacements, Afghan Whigs and Knife at Sasquatch.

Both are solid lineups, but week 1 definitely looks better. New Order is a pretty damn weak headliner.

I'll be at Week 2, no complaints! Holy cow I'm going to see Kraftwerk. That is going to be nuts. Robyn, Frank Ocean and #### Buttons too!

Hmm...there's gonna be a tough decision for me to make after Coachella. I really wanna go to Sasquatch in May, but it happens to close to Coachella I think. I really like that lineup though. Would be sweet to see The National on the main stage

Hey ECF, any idea what Royksopp and Robyn shows are like? They'd for sure play Robyn's hits right? Dancing on My Own, Be Mine, With Every Heartbeat type stuff...
