Sasquatch 2009 - Day 2 in pics
photos by Chris Graham
The Wrens
"Some major changes have been made to the lay-out of the [Sasquatch] festival. The medium-sized stage (Wookie Stage) had been moved, as had the small stage (Yeti Stage) to make room for the new Comedy/Dance Tent. It didn't take long to get used to that, though...The 2009 Sasquatch Festival ran from May 23-25 (Memorial Day Weekend) in Gorge, Washington. Pictures from Day One, HERE. More pictures from Day Two, below......[The Wrens] did most of the songs from "Meadowlands", their bassist/keyboardist Kevin Wheelan exhorted the crowd multiple times and climbed atop his amplifiers, and the guys played like their lives depended on doing the best they have ever done. Their approach to the music is, in a word, fierce. [VARIOUS ECSTASIES]

Now dig this: the Wrens are one seriously overrated band. All hat, precious little cattle. Enough.

Annie Clark is like a super hot version of my college Calc prof. Multiple copies of the same outfit for every performance. Kinda pasty though. Keep playing those sunny festivals and I'll see you at APW.
