It's that time of the year again, when all my Bonnaroo brethren are anxiously awaiting for the official lineup to be announced. The Roo crew usually release the lineup the first week of February, so it's only natural that the rumors and leaky lineups pick up super steam the week or two before the real deal drops. Is the below list completely accurate? I'm not sure. That all depends on how well you trust "hackers", "message board gurus", and the "hip insiders". I can say, from multiple Bonnaroo experiences, it's really rare for a band to be signed up for the festival in back-to-back years.. making this particular lineup somewhat believable.
Jay Z
Neil Young
Dave Matthews Band
Kings of Leon
Stevie Wonder
Pavement
Arcade Fire
Norah Jones
Massive Attack
String Cheese Incident
Furthur
Michael Franti and Spearhead
Phoenix
Dead Weather
STS9
New Pornographers
311
Mos Def
The Black Keys
Avett Brothers
Disco Biscuits
Blakroc
Cat Power
Spoon
Explosions in the Sky
Yonder Mountain String Band
M83
Gossip
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
Ingrid Michaelson
John Frusciante
Dan Deacon
Baroness
Lord T and Eloise
Ryan Bingham
Brian Jonestown Massacre
Gaslight Anthem
Gwar
Steve Martin
Mayer Hawthorne
Noah and the WhaleStevie Wonder! Although I'm still waiting for that mythical Led Zepellin Roo reunion, it's an interesting list that features a little bit of everything and has more of a jam-band feel than the past couple of years. You could color me excited for Jay-Z, Neil Young, Arcade Fire, and Pavement though!
