We know you've been waiting 364 days for this time of year, when hipsters, hippies, punks (maybe not so much), old people, young people and music lovers of all ilk flock to the beautiful Gorge Amphitheater for the annual Sasquatch! Music Festival. The festival boasts great music, manageable and friendly crowds, campground parties and above all, the most beautiful venue you'll ever see music in (at least until the first concert is held on the moon). The Gorge Amphitheater is a natural amphitheater that overlooks the Columbia River Gorge, and the contours and texture of the landscape seemed to have been carved straight from the hands of Aphrodite. If you've been before, you know what I'm talking about, if you haven't been before, get there now, and if this is gonna be your first year, start getting excited. To commemorate the fact that Sasquatch! is finally here, our weekly Thirsty Thursday Mix is made up of bands that are playing at Sasquatch!, and we took the liberty of putting the artists you should see in bold text.Click the jump for the goodies.
