Just Added: The Moondoggies and Truckasaurus!!!

A couple more local bands....I'm thinking one more band for Sunday (24 bands per day, 7 yeti, 8 wookie and 9 mainstage) and that will be it, but who knows..... Will that add be Ryan Adams? Travis Hay, a Seattle PI blogger, found a press release from the Presidents that indicated that. You can check that out here. Also, if you remember, the strange Sasquatch! siting earlier this month that indicated several bands including Ryan Adams on an early Sasquatch! poster. You can check that out here. Put both those sources together and it makes for a good rumor......

Just Added: The Morning Benders, What Made Milwaukee Famous, The Choir Practice, Cancer Rising, Delta Spirit and Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground

There were so many adds I didn't have room for my three exclamation points so here they are!!! I noticed this as I was looking over the amazing Sasquatch! lineup for the millionth time.... Props to Daniel for pointing out that I was a little hasty in this post as two more bands were added. Also, I realized that I never counted how many bands I had correctly guessed for the lineup, with Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground it us up to 28!!! One final thing, I have added myspace links to all the bands listed thus far, except Crudo. Does anyone know if one of the myspace pages under the name "Crudo" are the actual collaboration between Mike Patton and Dan the Automator?

Vote for the Band You are Most Excited to See!!!

Each week I will put up a poll for 6 bands to go head to head. I wanted to put all 55 up there, but it is a pain, takes up a lot of space and there will be added/deleted bands. I will start with the big name bands and work my way down. I will post the winner each week! Feel free to vote for as many bands as you are excited about. Have fun!
