Sasquatch

I just got back from sasquatch with Mind Drips and here is what I thought of the acts.
Jack White - I really liked him. The guy is extemely talented and can shred. His band kinda sucks. He needs a better drummer.
Bon Iver- whined for about two hours
Beck - what can i say? the guy is a genius. He played just enough crowd pleasers but not too many. I would definitely see him again because you never know which beck you will get. Some days he is happy, sad, or even angry at his shows.
Pretty Lights - like every other PL show
The Shins - they were good but lacked good production. the sound was bad
Beirut - Awesome, I would suggest anyone go see these guys. They are an English brass/indie band.
Portlandia - not that funny
Rob Delaney - hilarious comedian
Childish Gambino - Probably the best hip hop performanc I have ever watched live
Little Dragon - Maybe the best show at the festival. She jammed out on a pad throughout the show. All the music was live. No laptops.
tune-yards - not what i expected. It sounds like some crazy tribal music
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - They really impressed me. The lead singer really puts on a great show. Everyone in the crowd was dancing even the haters.
Tycho - trippy visuals. the sound was album quality. They were incredible
SBTRKT - Probably the best new DJ out there right now. It was not what I expected at all. The guy played a whole set that was no where to be found on his debut album
Little People - great DJ
Trampled by Turtles - Pretty cool band. I don't remember much because I was wasted.
Alabama Shakes - Maybe the best thing I saw at the festival. The lead singer is a fat black lady but she can shred on the geetar and is a great singer
Mogwai - if you haven't heard of them. check them out. they are like a jam/indie band. the guitarist and bassist shred very hard. the guitarist broke 3-4 strings during the performance
Charles Bradley - Check him out. The guy is the modern day Al Green.
Metric - meh
Purity Ring - Great performance from someone I hadn't heard too much about. It might have been the mushrooms but I was scared during this show.

Beirut is from the U.S. btw. I actually discovered them at Sasquatch in '08. Been one of my favorite acts since.
What did you think of the venue and the facilities?

Only if they played Wild Mountain Nation and The Trials of Van Occupanther. Their new shite just sucks to be honest.

I saw Blitzen Trapper twice at sxsw, and I'm not a huge fan, but they put on a great show.

If I would have known about this! Would love to have gone, but for some reason I have never even heard of this thing.
Found out from a friend who just got back.

It's the greatest music festival there ever was or ever will be. Porto johns were exceptionally clean and had hand sanitizer in them. The people were the best of any festival ive ever been to. Overall it is by far the best
