Kings of Leon, The Decemberists, Peter Bjorn and John, Monotonix, Animal Collective, Neko Case, Passion Pit, The Avett Brothers, Sun Kil Moon, John Vanderslice and Grizzly Bear.
Pretty weak thus far, outside of PBJ.

Not really if you consider there are approximately 50 more bands to be announced.
And except for Neko case( who is there every year, not a stretch she would be there again) these are all bands, confirmed and rumored, on Dustin's Blog.

When you consider the reality being that "most" people attending Sasquatch would be newly acquainted with the vast majority of the 50 bands (those guys and gal playing over at Yeti and Wookie), yes, pretty weak THUS FAR.
I could have my mind blown with the rest of the announced line-up. I'm only going by the 11 listed above.

Haha, really I think Peanut Butter Jelly is the worst band in that group, I would rather watch all of those bands Twice & Sober, before ever watching PBJ, even if it was at a free show while while receiving oral from the olsen twins.

I will take my King Khan any way I can get him. 
Loving these rumors thus far. I suspect they've got a fantastic lineup up their sleeves this year.

The only one I can't vouch for in the group is the Avett Brothers, but aside from that it's the announced bands that are keeping me excited through all the speculation surrounding other horrible bands.
In other words I agree with the belt sander poster and not the former.

My bad, I tend to only like good music 
And the Olsen Twins, 
I think we're 15 minutes away from people predicting Dashboard Confessionals and Jonas Brothers.

Your generalizing, both hyperbolic and defensive, is also incongruous with the bands we're talking about.
But maybe if you make the comment again, in an even vaguer and more indignant way (I've also seen your 'I'm not even going this year because I paid so much for last years' tickets!' post, which makes me wonder what exactly your mission is here), I'll understand what you're saying.
You're certainly not going to convince those of us who like these bands that they're not good bands.

Everyone has their own taste I suppose. I for one am absolutely loving those rumoured/confirmed bands (all except Neko Case).
I'm also very pleased with the comedy/dance tent decision. Very well done. Hope it's a bigger tent than last year though. I'll be very surprised if Girl Talk and Flosstradamus aren't there. Perhaps Steve Aoki, Drop The Lime, Felix Cartal, LA Riots as some other possibilities. Also remember reading that DJ Z-Trip, Adam Freeland, and Dave Seamen will all be touring around Sasquatch, so those are some other names to look for.
Oh and The Walkmen are opening for KOL so they will likely be there as well! The Walkmen put on one of the greatest live shows I've ever seen. You & Me was undoubtedly one of the finest albums of 2008.

What's wrong with personal opinion. As far as a "mission" goes, why would I not be able to discuss Sasquatch, seeing as I've gone the past 2 years? I've had plenty of people disagree with my band selections in the past year here but I never got bent out of shape over it.
sheeshhhhhhhh sssssssssss
And for the record, my not going this year has absolutely nothing to do with ticket prices (no sure how the hell you came to that conclusion). $1000, $1500, VIP is a treat worth paying with the right bands and food. But I'm filming a documentary on the Appalachian Trail beginning in April which would make a trip to Washington State somewhat difficult.
Now if Radiohead is headliner, I might make a concession. Saw them twice last year and they were grand.
