THIS POST WILL BE UPDATED AS CONFIRMATIONS ARE MADE
This is what you have been waiting for, it's finally here.
Please post your thoughts on who will be headlining the festival. We have already discussed it at length on the Educated Suggestion thread.
If you have no life and want to read a 40 page thread go ahead, but it has been condensed here.
Keep it positive and as I8 pointed out don't just add names to make the lists longer, we are positive that the Smiths, David Bowie and Poison won't be there, so no need to add them.
I also did not include names that are probably a once in a lifetime get for Sasquatch- Bjork, REM, The Cure.
Confirmed.
Foo Fighters
Expected
Arcade Fire-http://concertful.com/concert/arcade-fire/
Strong Possibilities (Bands that are touring or are planning to tour this year)
The Strokes- They are touring with a new release this year.
Pearl Jam-Celebrating they're 20th year, already said they will be on the road.
Chemical Brothers- Will be in Florida and South America in March and April.
The Flaming Lips- a possibility every year.

Phoenix-Have played every major festival, except Sasquatch.
Pixies- They are in touring in Canada in May

Remote Possibilities( Bands that have not announced tour plans but we could see at Sasquatch)
Soundgarden-Chris Cornell playing solo tour until early May.
