if based solely on Radiohead's current setlist, i'd be in favor of another band headlining Sasquatch, too. I'm certain i'm in the minority here, but hearing the King of Limbs in its entirety along with another dozen songs that i don't consider to be their best just doesn't inspire me much.
recent setlist... Bloom Little By Little Staircase The National Anthem Feral Subterranean Homesick Alien Like Spinning Plates All I Need Everything In Its Right Place (with "True Love Waits" intro) 15 Step Weird Fishes/Arpeggi Lotus Flower Codex The Daily Mail Morning Mr Magpie Reckoner
Encore: Give Up The Ghost Myxomatosis Bodysnatchers
Encore 2: Supercollider Nude

I'll agree that that's not a dream Radiohead setlist, but I'll take that over almost anything else.
That's pretty much all King of Limbs/In Rainbows, isn't it? and nothing pre-Kid A? Oh except Subterranean Homesick Alien

bands I want to play: Fleet Foxes Bon Iver Sufjan Stevens Elbow War on Drugs Cults Astronautalis Gold Leaves Mister Heavenly (or Man Man... or I guess both) Tune-Yards St Vincent Crocodiles Givers (bring 'em back!) M83 Animal Collective (late-night) SOME HIP HOP FOR GOD'S SAKE
bands I do not want to play: Black Keys Coldplay (shudder) Mumford and Sons
bands that are too big to play Sasquatch and could sell out the gorge on their own so why are you even bothering to hope?: Radiohead Pearl Jam Tool
I would LOVE to see an EDM act headline the last day... I was actually hoping that would happen in 2011. and although it would seriously bum me out to see Coldplay or someone like that in a headlining slot, truth is by the time the headliner rolls around it gets seriously cold and I'm usually exhausted. more important to me is the sub- or sub-sub-headliner slot (see: LCD Soundsystem 2010).

I was seriously disappointed with Radiohead's SNL performance, but their Colbert Report show was much better (and longer!).
nonetheless, I will see them when they come back. I hope it is at the gorge, and I hope it is not at Sasquatch! (sorry bros)

In all seriousness, when people post bands who are obviously too big to play sasquatch (radiohead, pearl jam, RHCP, Coldplay, etc) it bugs me just as much as it bugs you when I say they're too big to play. I don't see how it's unreasonable to say that if a band can headline the Gorge on their own then it's unlikely they will play a festival with the same capacity. While someone big might play an abbreviated Friday like Foo Fighters did this year, the trend for the rest of the headliners has been clearly downward.
Sasquatch is 1/3rd of the size of Coachella, Lollapalooza, and Bonnaroo so we're not going to have the same kind of headliners. I for one consider this a positive thing

Except Sasquatch has, on multiple occasions, had "Coachella" sized headliners...

I think we've had some of their lesser tier headliners (Bjork and The Cure come to mind) and we've had bands before they were big enough to headline (Kings of Leon, Jack Johnson, etc) and lots of bands that fall just short of headlining (NIN, Beck, Beastie Boys) but I think there is a big difference between those and the Radiohead and Pearl Jams of the world

They've only been around for over thirty years, headlined every major festival across the planet, helped define a musical genre, inspire and influence countless other artists and performers, and has one of the most talented song-writers of all time... what else - oh-yeah, Robert Smith fucking destroyed Mecha-Streisand! lesser tier? i think not.
