But you can tell already there's going to be conflicts. For example King Khan, Shearwater and Bon Iver on Wookie will probably collide with Animal Collective, M. Ward, or Devotchka on Main Stage.

maybe not the best line-up as far as name value goes, but I think a lot of the fun will be going there and finding out that the more obscure bands are downright awesome.
And yeah, Saturday will rock. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs and The Decemberists. That will be cool.
As far as just going off who I know, Saturday sounds like it'll be the best day for me personally, with Monday being behind that, and then Sunday being the weakest day of the three. But hopefully they'll be some good stuff from the bands less celebrated. Not that I dislike JA or NIN, but I'm not really super excited to see them. I like maybe 5 NIN songs and maybe 3 JA songs. So I'll probably be looking at other stuff to do that night(perhaps getting in line early for the dance tent?).

The undercard for Monday is solid. Harper at the end is meh. Friday is very meh for me. Saturday is decent. NIN at Pemberton was stellar and I wouldn't mind checking out Jane's. It's definitely not a lineup that screams out "I must go" this year. This year seems to be an "I'll tag along if anyone else I know goes" kind of year.

I was really hoping for patton oswalt - Maybe he'll be added later. Sunday looks weak IMO.

It's still a good indication of who is playing what stage.
Deadmau5 and Chromeo (DJ set) are also listed on the site but not on the lineup that got posted.

Headliners aren't that good at all but
TV On The Radio (heard cocerns about their live sets)
Peter Bjorn and John (good times)
of Montreal (new album sucks so play old stuff)
The Doves (Brit pop/Dream pop at its finest)
As long as Ben Harper plays Faded.
I give this year's lineup a C-

Eh, I dont know if I'm going to pay to see that. Monday seems lame to me especially with the ben harper headline. Gogol Bordello is going to upstage everyone. Best live band I've ever seen by far and it's not even close. However, I dont know how they'll come across playing from the mainstage. They seem like a band better suited in a small venue.

This lineup, overall, is pretty bad for me.
My own band is heading on a cross-Canada tour for three weeks right before the Sasquatch, and the deal I made with my girlfriend (who is also in my band) was that if Sasquatch had an undeniable lineup then we would sacrifice the extra few days and go, otherwise we would have to skip this year because we are likely going to be broke as fuck from touring in a van for a month.
That said, here are the top five things I'm bummed to be missing. Surprisingly, most of it is going to be Comedy Tent related:
1) Tim and Eric live 2) Zach Galifianakis 3) Todd Barry 3) Dutchess and the Duke (seriously folks, their record from last year is A+) 4) King Khan and the Shrines 5) Monotonix
and the top five "bummers" for me:
1) NIN 2)Janes Addiction 3)Airborne Toxic 4)Ben Harper 5)Girl Talk
I think people are right about going to discover the undercard - lots of stuff I haven't heard and wont be able to check out. I'm sad to miss: The beautiful gorge amphitheatre, road trippin' w/ peeps, getting afternoon drunk, being cynical about the music.
