Sasquatch Launch Party 2014 - Neptune Theater

The official launch party set it off in the right fashion with some pretty sweet bands such as the Cold War Kids, St. Lucia, Sir Sly, and Derek & Pete (from The Cave Singers).

visible voice goes to Sasquatch

 

visible voice has returned from the Sasquatch Music Festival, and it has to rank as one of the greatest weekends of my life.  As festivals go, it was like a smaller, indie-er Bonnaroo -- but the breathtaking views made it completely surreal.  While I went primarily as a fan, I vowed to return with some content for the site.  My photos somehow didn't really capture the atmosphere of the festival (those two above might be the best of the bunch), so I decided to put together a roadtrip video.  I hope you enjoy:
