Washington is the home to Bigfoot. Apparently there are more sightings here than anywhere else in the U.S. I've been in the woods out here quite a bit, yet I have never heard or seen him. Maybe my dog keeps scaring him off. Unlikely though, since my dog is a wuss.
However, another thing that Washington is home to is the Sasquatch Music Festival. This year's lineup includes Ben Harper, Death Cab for Cutie, Beck, The Tragically Hip, Sufjan Stevens and The Decemberists, along with many others.
The festival will be held at the Gorge Amphitheater in central WA. Check out their website, and tell me it doesn't look awesome. Guaranteed to be a hippy festival. There is a camping ground there, and apparently everyone camps out after the shows every night and parties till the early hours of the morn. Oh yeah, and if you are worried about the rain out here in the NW, don't fret, central WA is a desert.
I have so far convinced my roommates to go, but I'm looking to recruit some more people. Anyone that's interested and wants to come out here to the great Northwest, can crash at my place before and afterwards. Hopefully, by then I will have my own house, but even if I don't, we can make room at my current place.
Sooooo... Look at your calendars and see what you are doing Memorial Day weekend (May 26-28). Come see Portland and Washington, and hear some great music!
