Reports from the 2007 Sasquatch Festival in Gorge, Washington are starting to filter in. One such report involves alt-country’s corset queen Neko Case
“I’m going to see if I can make it through an entire set this year,” Neko Case said when she began at 3:40 p.m. Last year, Case’s Sasquatch! set was plagued by hail; this year, she got lots of sunlight, which didn’t prevent her from playing Bob Dylan‘s “Buckets of Rain.” Case’s largely acoustic performance was a good mid-day balm.

According to the setlist, the Beasties didn’t play all instrumental. More photos of the Boys HERE.
It should also be noted that both comedians Aziz Ansari & Sarah Silverman arrived (VERY) late to the festival. That in turn left two of the three stages un-hosted for most, or all, of the first day. Michael Showalter was spotted doing his job though.
Stay tuned right here for more reports from Sasquatch 2007 – including those from the yeti himself.
