Sasquatch! Music Festival

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sasquatch! Music Festival is a music festival held annually at the Gorge Amphitheatre in George, Washington. It is presented by the House of Blues. There is an emphasis on indie rock bands and singer-songwriters, although there are also alternative rock and hip hop acts. Notable performers from past festivals include Nine Inch Nails, Beck, The Flaming Lips, Modest Mouse, Pixies, Sufjan Stevens, Kanye West, Bloc Party, Coldplay and Arcade Fire.

The 2006 event was marked by a ferocious hailstorm on the afternoon of the second day, Saturday, May 27th, which forced Neko Case and her band off stage, and threatened to shut down the show. After the music started again, both Ben Harper and The Flaming Lips gave impassioned performances that thrilled the soaked crowd.
