While other festivals have been cancelled this year — single tear that the second Pemberton Festival apparently will be delayed to 2010 — tickets for Washington’s own premiere three-day fest are about to go on sale.

Sasquatch! will again take place at the Gorge. Like last year, Seattle’s Fleet Foxes will be taking the stage, except this time, they’ll have a much better time slot.

Also on the bill are headliners Nine Inch Nails, Jane’s Addiction, Kings of Leon, the Decemberists, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Erykah Badu, among many others.

While I don’t have the presale password for that fest, I do have info on some other shows going on sale soon in the area.

Check out the presale info for Taylor Swift, Chris Cornell and, um, Fischerspooner. Also note: That Candlebox show at Neumos is for a second date, just added.
