Bonnaroo VS. Sasquatch II

Posted over 5 years ago
So the fateful battle returns once again... Bonnaroo with its big muscles, and sleek looks, and Sasquatch; humble and loving, shy and demure, hidden away in the northwest... Last year Sasquatch won over bonnaroos amazing line up which painfully included radiohead... and this year the choice is just as tough, with one exception... Bonnaroo while still the power house, is missing two key ingriedients which Sasquatch has - Bjork, and The Arcade Fire....So Bonnaroo... 3 days in the tennesee valley, amongst fake hippies, zoned out druggies, drunk wiggers on X, 80,000 tents, beautiful humidity and an amazing line up which includes:The PoliceThe White StripesWilcoThe Flaming LipsManu ChaoFranz FerdinandDecemberistsKings of LeonDJ shadowSpoonHold SteadyFeistHot ChipGirl TalkMartha WainrightAnnualsSam RobertsApollo SunshineThe NationalDAMN....Oh ya, and they have a comedy tent which includes; Lewis Black, Dave Attel, and the amazing David Cross...Or Sasquatch, tucked away in the crevices of the beautiful North West U.S., Amazing weather, beautiful scenery, and amazing vantage points to see the stages from almost any position you stand, less people, mostly canadians really friendly folks... (Dave was kinda creepy... He would just get bored at like midnight and walk around with miller light eh), two days insted of three grueling days... and a lineup which includes....BjorkThe Arcade FireManu ChaoNeko CaseHold SteadyGrizzly BearLoney, DearThe BlowInterpolSpoonMirahTokyo Police ClubSmooshHelio SequenceMinus the bearNot as magnificent, but some great acts which I believe gives it an if not equal very close nutritional value....Someone please help me make my decision!!!!

    etcvisitor says i think sasquatch wins again. just the fake hippies, zoned out druggies, drunk wiggers on X, and the humidity are enough to keep me away from bonnaroo. then again, i also live in the middle of tennessee so maybe im just tainted with the fantasy of getting away from this god forsaken state.

    Anna says I think it depends on which one has the most groups you want to see. That's how I'd go about it :)

    etcvisitor says no anna, trust me the fake hippies and x-ridden "thugs" really make this an easy choice... especially when canadians are the other option... most canadians are pretty cool, most bonnaroobians are fake ass junkie morons. i guess that is just my oppinion. i know a lot of really cool people who go to bonnaroo each year and they all tell me horror stories of morons that they ended up meeting and having to interact with. every year i try to get out of tennessee during bonnaroo.

    Thieves Prince says I would have to say based solely on music, go with Bonnaroo but I've recently seen several of the people who are going to be at Sasquatch. It's hard to pass up Bjork and Interpol but I think it might be worth it for The Police, Wilco and The Flaming Lips. Wayne Coyne always puts on a good show at festivals.
