i feel like i know way too many acts on that sasquatch lineup for it to be real. ccfx would be cool tho. damn i didnt realize the webpage still actually loads with the lineup in google's cache. that is a really great lineup.

Isn't Sasquatch part of Live Nation too?

I wouldn’t travel all the way to Washington for it but that’s a nice lineup

Based on previous lineups/schedules, here are my predictions for where the top acts on Sasquatch will end up:
Main stage headliners (usually 10:30-12:00): Bon Iver The National Modest Mouse
Sunset acts (main stage subs): David Byrne Ray Lamontagne Grizzly Bear
Late night (Bigfoot closers, usually 12:00-1:30): Tyler The Creator Anderson .Paak Spoon
The lack of "big" electronic acts really sticks out to me on that lineup, so they're either downsizing the dance tent (Chupacabra) or just taking a "if you build it they will come" mentality with it. As far as I can tell, Shakehips, What So Not and Jai Wolf are the top-billed electronic acts on the lineup, and that seems like a big downgrade from recent years. They had acts like The Glitch Mob, Kaytranada and Odesza over there when I went in 2015 and it looks like they had Bonobo, Bomba Estereo and Bob Moses over there last year, and I can at least say I've heard of those acts.

Is it possible that Paradiso grabbed all the big electronic names that Sasquatch hasn't booked the past couple years? That would make some sense, plus if they're really trying to return to form and sell tickets some downsizing makes sense, especially if it means spending way less money on electronic stuff that people generally complained about.

it's also possible that the alternative rock station only posted the alternative rock acts on their website and didn't include the electronic stuff much

Eh, they had no problem putting Tyler The Creator, Vince Staples, Thundercat, etc. on there and the billing order makes sense.
So I'm leaning more toward what thebosma said about Paradiso, and Bumbershoot has gone pretty electro-heavy in recent years and acts hardly ever play both Sasquatch and Bumbershoot in the same year.

I could see myself going to Sasquatch since some friends recently moved to Portland and would want to go. Also can combine that with my Seattle trip.

Church of Misery added to Psycho Las Vegas and that alone is worth the ticket price

There are 33 acts on that lineup that I would want to see at minimum. That is a lot these days.

What a turnaround from a year ago - good job Sasquatch
And between this and Roo it seems like Livenation must be back on Bonny Bear's Christmas Card list

Could 2018 be the year the board admits that Sasquatch has a better lineup than Coachella??

Squatch managed to have a lineup that's full of white dudes none of which is Eminem. That alone deserves some sort of commendation.
