I’m about to buy tickets for [Sasquatch!](http://www.sasquatchfestival.com/) this year, and it will be my first music festival of any sort attended. This is quite sad considering I’m in my mid-30s. Since I’m such a late starter, is there anything I should be aware of?

I’m planning on camping on site - does anyone know how far the camping is from the amphitheatre? How are the facilities for the non-premium campers? Anything non-obvious I should make sure and bring?

Any other general festival-going tips? I.e. how much am I looking at spending on food and beer?
