Sasquatch! Festival Lineup Announced; The Cure, R.E.M. to Headline
The Sasquatch! Festival lineup has been announced. Leading the pack are the Cure, R.E.M., and something called “the Flaming Lips’ U.F.O. Show,” which we assume will have something to do with this. Additionally, the Lips will debut their long-in-the-works feature film Christmas On Mars. Also on the bill for the three-day event (taking place May 24-26 at The Gorge in Washington) are Modest Mouse, Death Cab for Cutie, M.I.A., Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks and lots more.
