Website Malfunction Confirms Multiple Acts

The second biggest entertainment related malfunction of all-time? I fully intended to spend a couple hours writing paragraphs filled with Janet Jackson song titles and jokes until I realized two points. First, I'm the only Janet Jackson fan who reads this blog, so most wouldn't get it. Second, even though I do this "All For You," "What Have You Done For Me Lately?" See, I told you you wouldn't get it. Now I'm wondering if viewers even remember the Janet Jackson Wardrobe Malfunction? Don't google it at work.

So what happened? Shortly after noon last Saturday, a loyal Sasquatch Blog reader referring to him/herself as "anonymous" posted a link to the Sasquatch main(e) site's schedule page, which incorrectly showed names of bands on the Sasquatch lineup. Apparently, if you changed the numbers at the end of the link, it would reveal more bands. Later that afternoon, the news spread to the rest of the internet, and other interneters claim to have seen the following bands:

The Shins / Girl Talk / Beirut / St Vincent / Blitzen Trapper / Tune-Yards / Lana Del Rey / Apparat / Starfucker / Wolfgang Gartner / Active Child / Said the Whale / Black Whales / Araabmuzik / Star Slinger / Jamey Johnson / Grynch / Com Truise / Dyme Def / SPAC3MAN / Purity Ring / THEESatisfaction / Tycho / Fatal Lucciano / Fly Moon Royalty / Sol / Nobody Beats The Drum / Todd Barry / Rob Delaney / Pete Holmes

Is the list real, you bet. Is it 100% accurate, well, that's a different story. First, we are relying on random internet people to have accurately transcribed what they saw. This means, "Fly Moon Royalty," might actually be "Sky Poon Realty." That's probably a bad example, but you get the point. Second, acts cancel festivals all the time, so there is no guarantee a name or two who were on the lineup last week will still be there Thursday night. However, the collection of lesser known hip-hop acts and comedians, mixed with upper tier acts I am confident will be there (six of the biggest names were on my guess 50 already) makes this list way too credible to be fake. Plus, you know, it came from the official website.

This malfunction has also confirmed a fifth stage. Travis Hay recently wrote an article about it. Read it here.

Regarding my guess 50, I last updated it Thursday, January 26th. I won't update it again, since anyone can make a guess 50 now, and be 80% correct.

And speaking of the Jacksons, anyone anticipating a Michael Jackson, "Beat It," type showdown between SPAC3MAN (the hip-hop artist) and Spaceman (the lead singer of Spiritualized)?

I have no idea how Said The Whale made the Sasquatch lineup. Let me amend that comment: I understand WHY they made Sasquatch's lineup, but I have no idea how they've gotten to this point. Hard work, no doubt; they play everywhere and they play often, but I'm from Vancouver, have seen them live many times, and they are an extremely generic and bland indie band. I just don't get how they're this big.

Anonymous said...

Apparently any band name with 'whale' in it is great!

Griffs said...

I will have to disagree with 9:08 Anonymous. I too am a fellow Vancouver native and I think Said The Whale have really transformed into a great indie band. Some of their earlier stuff is definitely bland, for sure, but they've really moved past that. Check out "Heavy Ceiling" if you're unconvinced. I project their new album will be much better, more polished, and will produce a fantastic, new edge to their performance when we see them.

I'm also very stoked for Beirut, The Shins, Girl Talk, and Blitzen Trapper. Off to a good start.

It's Apparat and Wolfgang Gartner.

Alex Young of COS posted this in regards to why they haven't updated with the leaked bands:

Re: Sasquatch! -- We reached out to the festival's representation, and they suggested that not all the artists appearing on 'leak' would appear on the final lineup, which is why we're holding off.

Anonymous said...

Does anyone think that there are going to be anymore headliners? Or are all the bands they announced have all the headliners and subheadliners in it? I hope they have not announced all headliners yet. The Shins, Beirut, and Girl Talk for friday....I think there is one more though. Unless Bon Iver is on the list. what does everyone think? any good ideas for sub headliners that would not be on the list also?

Anonymous said...

THAT WAS ME. IM THE ANON GUY!

Anonymous said...

dear god if girl talk shins beirut and bon iver are the four headliners this will be the worst festival in the history of festivals....coachella has radiohead, snoop, black keys. all those bands you named aren't even close to being able to headline coachella, it makes me sad that they would be considered headliners for sasquatch. i guess that says something about sasquatch...but my guess is all that leaked stuff was the undercard and we're going to get the big names thursday.

Anonymous said...

last year. death cab, flaming lips, modest mouse, foo fighters, bright eyes, wilco, decemberists....basically all those bands are better (or at least bigger) than any that have been leaked so far. If ANY of those leaked bands headlined I'd be pretty disappointed...fingers crossed for pearl jam, strokes, mgmt, mumford, daft punk, anyone besides the crap listed.

Montana said...

Yeah I agree. 2011 Headliners were very good compared to this. I am definitely disappointed with most of the leaked artists considering 2011 & 2010 were that much better. Fingers crossed with ya man!

While I'm no longer going to argue the Shins won't headline, it would be the biggest disappointment if they did. 80% of the crowd won't know who they are. Based on ticket sales, Girl Talk is as big of a draw in the NW as the Shins, and 80% of the crowd will know Girl Talk.

Plus, Girl Talk shows are fun.

Why would you worry when we don't even know much of the lineup and most of the leak was the local hip hop stage. If they really got Shabazz Palaces, Spiritualized and have cross over with Coachella, it'll be fine. Bands like Purity Ring and AraabMUZIK are amazing gets for the shack. Don't worry till it comes out. I've learned my lesson. I was worried in 2010, and we got Massive Attack, MMJ, Vampire Weekend, LCD...etc. Just don't get your hopes up for bands like Daft and Radiohead. Then if it magically happens, you'll enjoy it WAY more.

However, the Shins should NOT headline or be anywhere close because they are not the Shins anymore. Just Mercer and some lame excuse of a band. I will be pissed if they actually headline.

Would love to see Portugal the Man grab a spot on the main stage...They gained a huge following in the last year, and they are a northwest favorite

Japhy ryder said...

yeah, as a festival vet i couldnt agree more that headliners really dont matter. seeing bands all day long and late night, if there is a lame headliner, it is a great time to just chill and get pumped up for late night sets, especially now that there is re-entry. head back to the camp site and do some cheap drinking if you dont like a headline. im really not excited for the shins girl talk or bjork, but i wouldnt rule out going to sit up on the hill and hang out with friends during those times. im hoping girl talk plays an earlier evening set leading into AVICII. avicii playing the sasquatch stage at midnight on saturday would be nuts!!

Anonymous said...

AVICII would be pretty nuts. Saw him at paramount and had a pretty good time, though I don't know how much sasquatch would get into his set beyond a few of his mainstream hits.

Anyone have any informed opinions about YACHT making an appearance?

They last played Sasquatch in 2010, they released a new album last year, and they are currently touring for said album.

Their listed tour dates only go through March but they've alluded to releasing more soon. Could it be that they are waiting for the line-up announcement to say more?

The play Portland and Seattle early February; I don't know enough about Santa to know what that means.

I dont care how much publicity Kanye gave him

@9:07. Wow so what you are saying is that Beirut is playing twice at sasquatch, can't wait. But I am confused why he is billed lower the second time.

I get it. Beirut DJ set!!!!!! fantastic.

you could try to at least put some effort into it, and if Kraftwerk were going to be there, the would probably headlining and not billed lower than The head and the Heart.

Anonymous said...

If that leak is true i will be selling my four day pass... but it's not so ill be booking my flight to Seattle on Friday Morning once they realease the actual line up... If that were the lineup, expect the festival to go back to a 2 day in 2013 because NO ONE WOULD SHOW FOR THAT PAPER THIN BILL. Suspect some of the leaked acts to be included, along with sufficient headliners and support to fill a four day festival on the rise.

Anonymous said...

^ Holy shit, you're dense.

you really think its logical that they unintentionally entered all that data into their website and unintentionally let the public see it? things like that dont happen. And Death cab has a way larger fanbase then bon iver has And seriously modest mouse is on a whole other level as far as fanbase especially fanbase in the northwest, not to mention theyre a band not just predominately one guy. And Bon Ivers huge catalog of 2 albums against Modests 6 albums and 6 EPs or Death Cabs 7 albums. Bon Iver has a smaller fanbase and isnt as good as either of them. dont compare. Also the Shins are more fit to headline then Bon Iver

comparing bon iver to modest mouse AND death cab? hilarity at the highest level. don't get me wrong, bon iver is amazing. but there really isn't a comparison.

Anonymous said...

um, Bon Iver played Sasquatch in 2009 and headlined the Wookie stage (which I guess is the Bigfoot now). That was after one album and one EP. It was incredible (I missed the Yeah Yeah Yeahs to see it, which I didn't regret). That was three years ago. Since then, their self titled album that was released this year debuted at #2 on the billboard charts, and they've been nominated for Grammys in multiple categories. They also played a show at Edgefield which sold out very quickly. Now they are the first subheadliner for one day at Coachella. I'd say they are definitely big enough to headline Sasquatch. However, if they were somehow playing the same day that, say, death cab or modest mouse were playing, they would probably be a subheadliner, but neither of those bands are going to play this year.

anyway, tl;dr, I love Bon Iver but I do hope that they get someone bigger to headline the day they play.

They just announced dates to two different festivals in the past two days, seems like they are in the festival spirit..

Anonymous said...

Bon Iver is without a doubt big enough to headline most festivals, if you disagree, you obviously have not been paying attention to the music industry lately. 4 Grammy nominations and the huge success of their last album is enough to convince me. Modest Mouse and Death Cab are completely different, but I'm not gonna lie, around the NW area it seems that Bon Iver has surpassed Death Cab and Modest Mouse when it comes to fans. All three bands are practically on the same level now. I honestly thought Death Cab was extremely boring at Sasquatch.

Anonymous said...

Sorry but no. Bon Iver is not nearly as established as Modest Mouse and Death Cab.

Vernon may end up further than either of those bands but he doesn't care their weight currently.

He is a subheadliner as best. If this lineup is looking like the guesses or the suggested leaks, we're all fucked. Coachella '13 here we come.

Anonymous said...

At launch parties past the lineup has been announced in one big chunk prior to the final band performing. That means it'll likely be unveiled around 10:30 or 11:00. It's not like you show up at 8 and they start revealing who is playing what stage and stuff like that. The host will rattle off some of the headliners before Junip plays and then there will be a short video with the full lineup announced. Look for it to appear on the Sasquatch! website after that.

Hey! Say thank you..lol this man did us a great service and we owe him! I wish I could have done what he did. Or maybe we could just wait a few more hours and actually be thankful to some awesome tweeters.

The above posted lineup may be somewhat correct but I know some bands that are playing that are not mentioned. Now everyone just relax we should have the lineup soon!

Tenacious D leaked.... not sure on validity... came from source at the launch party.

just confirmed: Creed

Montana said...

Looks like it's Jack Black, not Jack White lol

I fuckin hope Creed is not on the bill. If that is a joke, it a very cruel one. Google worst bands of all time. In order, it goes Nickleback, then Creed.....

You guys think Amy Winehouse will be there?

Only in spirit will Amy be there.... or if you do enough Acid.
