Sasquatch! 2008 announces dates, expands to three days

The Pacific Northwest's Sasquatch! Music Festival, that elusive (and irritable?) beast, has announced that this year's Memorial Day Weekend monster event has expanded, for the first time taking place over a full three days.

May 24-26, 2008, The Gorge Amphitheatre in Washington will play host to the seventh year of the big-footed festival, one which has hosted the likes of Coldplay, Beastie Boys, Bjork, Beck, Arcade Fire, NIN, Pixies, Wilco, Kanye West, The Shins, The Postal Service and Sleater-Kinney in the past.

Sightings of the full line-up have yet to occur, but fuzzy amateur shots (i.e. the official announcement) will definitely show up Feb. 25.
