Red Hot Chili Peppers would be really great, and I think a lot of people would dig it if they were there. I would.

If Fleet Foxes and Bon Iver don't come out with a new album by next Sasquatch then they will be long over due. Those are my two big hopes. I'd say the Shins too but James Mercer is still touring with Broken Bells and pretty much all the other current members have other bands to work with. Even though he probably has a decent amount of new Shins material already down (I heard two new songs when they did a little mini tour last summer) I think we would be being pretty hopeful if we asked that the Shins come out with a new album in less than a year. But I hope I'm wrong because they would be so awesome. The Black Keys surprised me by not being here this year, if next year they aren't there with their new album then something is wrong. Jack White could put together a White Stripes album super quick. He's impulsive and cool like that. I remember reading that Elephant was recorded in a very small window of time. While you would think the White Stripes would be an expensive band, they probably aren't difficult like that and would love to play the Gorge. And I'm almost positive I read an article where Eddie Vedder said at a show that it was their last for a while and Pearl Jam was going on a break. Maybe my memory is wrong though.... Edit: I double checked and my memory was not wrong. www.nme.com/news/pearl-jam/52001There is this really really great band, Warpaint who are releasing their first album in August and they're a lot smaller than all of the previous bands discussed but they are one of the ones I am hoping for the most. They would fit perfect. Their EP was amazing. I've never been so impressed with so small an example of six songs. They were touring during Sasquatch and I was bummed they weren't invited to the party. the rest of the mainstage will be littered with the "new hot acts", ie - next years' MGMT and Passion Pit. cough LOCAL NATIVES cough I can definitely see Local Natives becoming popular enough to play on the Mainstage next year if they have a new album out. They were so good this year! People are really catching on to them too. If they come back I'd be a very very happy camper.

I was in a pretty good place in the crowd during their set and I thought it was really great. They are a real tight band. I didn't buy their album or listen to them before hand but I don't doubt for a second that they didn't miss a beat. I was so impressed. If you didn't see their set, you're Sasquatch experience is missing a pretty nice piece of music.
