So yeah, we're gonna need one of these sooner or later, so pull out those predictions!
Since we got two weekends next year, there will be a lot more bands on the Sasquatch lineup overall. So that means that most of the bands actively touring around that time will most likely be on the lineup. Right now there isn't much to go off of though. As it gets closer to the fest we'll be getting more of an idea of who might be playing.
My predictions:
Arcade Fire (New album dropping later this year) Queens of the Stone Age (Newest album is killer, and they haven't been at Sasquatch in a long time) Fitz & The Tantrums (They've blown up quite a bit recently, so they're probably gonna be on every festival lineup next year)
Let's do this yall.

Animal Collective are becoming crowd pleasers and are skipping WA on their fall run. Smells like Sasquatch to me.
Also wouldn't be surprised to see Modest Mouse and/or the Flaming Lips again per their obligatory 3-year grace period, especially with two lineups.

The National.
Reasoning: Sigur Rós played Edgefield in 2012 and headlined Sasquatch 2013. Bon Iver played Edgefield in 2011 and headlined Sasquatch 2012. The National play Edgefield in September. Their 2010 set is one of the most well-received sets in Sasquatch history.
Of course, by the Edgefield logic, fun. (although I think they're taking a break from touring next summer) and Yeah Yeah Yeahs might headline too. (And The Flaming Lips, but Burrito already mentioned them.)

It's never too early for Rumors, Lies, and Rampant Speculation
My two cents for now:
Tool. Their new album should be out no later than next spring which means they're likely to be touring next summer. They've played Coachella and they've played the Gorge, but never Sasquatch. Also, I tweeted Snacks a while back suggesting (begging) for Toolsquatch 2014. He didn't rely, but he "favorited" it, so that's got to mean something.
Daft Punk. Because someone's got to say it.

QOTSA is a lock at this point. Same with The Knife and Yeezus.
Okay serious face:
-I wouldn't be surprised to see CHVRCHES return at a later time and on a bigger stage - their album is gonna drop eventually. -Cut Copy just released a new single, they could potentially draw a crowd for a midday dance party. -This might be wishful thinking, but something in my gut tells me Robyn might come back again, she's been really quiet since Body Talk and the time is ripe for another killer pop album. Additionally, the dearth of female musicians at 2013 was disappointing.

Also, Lady Gaga should have a new album out in the not so distant future. Not saying she'll be there, but can you just imagine if she was?

What if Maysquatch is normal hipster ass-bands and Julysquatch is all Billboard top 40.
I'd probably still go to both.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor late night Bigfoot set. Just because I would probably shit in my pants.

Deafheaven as the opener. I WOULD LITERALLY DIE. And not just because of all the incredibly illegal activities in which I'd partake.

I think Cut Copy are significantly bigger than "afternoon dance party" status. They'd definitely headline the dance tent one night if they were to show, I can't see them playing anywhere else.
I really want to see Cut Copy. I've never been able to and I absolutely love them.

The Crystal Method feel so bad about having to miss Paradiso this year that they plan to make up for it by playing a live set at Sasquatch next year. I've already confirmed it with myself.

I really want to see Cut Copy. I've never been able to and I absolutely love them. Really? I thought they kind of fell out of the mainstream after "Lights & Music." Last time they came through they played SoDo. Which, actually, is about the size of the dance tent. Yeah, okay. You're correct, carry on.

Cut Copy might not be at the peak of their popularity like when In Ghost Colors was still soundtracking summers, but their live shown is known to be amazing and their presence at Sasquatch alone would be a swaying factor in whether or not I actually end up going next year. Unless I'm mistaken (very possible, I've been drinking all night), they have yet to play Sasquatch and I can't imagine a more magical place to see one of my favorite groups.

I guess I was just thinking about Chromeo, who I view as about the same popularity as Cut Copy, and have both headlined the dance tent and performed an unforgettable afternoon set on the Main Stage. I was just picturing a similar situation. But regardless of when they played I'd be so stoked for them to be there, the only performance of theirs I've seen was an in-studio at KEXP.

I think NIN is going to happen. Hopefully that will also include a HTDA set over the weekend as well. That would probably make for one of my favorite Gorge experiences ever.
