JITM inadvertently leaks bands playing at Sasquatch
Submitted by imaginary dana on February 25, 2008.Sounds like in addition to the Cure (who they announced ages ago), REM, Death Cab, Built to Spill, and Flight of the Conchords will all be playing at the Sasquatch Music Festival 2008. Official announcement coming soon. John accidently slipped the news during all the pledge drive chit-chat this morning. Whoopsie, and wahoo! Sounds like this years festival will be amazing,
Speaking of the pledge drive.... make sure you donate your support to KEXP this week!
And speaking of REM, is it just me, or is that new single unexpectantly good??

I was just going to post to say that my understanding was that the lineup was to be unveiled today. It looks like it's pretty solid, although no one I'm dying to see (my hopes were set pretty high when the rumor was floated that the Kinks were going to be the third headliner).
I think it may be worth the drive to the Gorge.
