Of all the options on this thread, the least likely is that the Beasties are Friday's headliner, but AC/S snubbed them when they announced the other headliners. Dissing a headliner like that would be an incredibly bad business decision, and it certainly wouldn't help AC/S in the future when they are trying to book headliners for future Roos.
What he said ^^^. If Bonnaroo does have a headliner for Friday night it will be Phish or Jay-Z (as previously mentioned with rumors). Phish will probably play two sets if they are the headliners, one being 10-12:30 with Beasties in front of them and then they play their late night 1 til Dawn. Or they just add Jay-Z and have him play before Phish. Most likely scenario is Phish headlining Friday and Sunday night. Also, Jane's Addiction will not be a headliner. If NIN is not one, then JA will not be because they're not bigger than NIN imo due to them not playing together for a long, long time.
To my knowledge, there have never been actual Jay-Z rumors. His name was brought up in wishlists and speculation, largely because of how good he was at Glastonbury last year.

besides the thread that i posted above, the only other source for jay-z rumors that i know of is the reference to him playing that the tennessean made in their blog post before headliners were announced. they specifically mentioned jay z, bruce, and phish.

i would also like to know what vested interest was being referred to. was it a reference to his contract with Live Nation? because if so, i don't see what that has to do with bonnaroo.... and other than that i don't know of anything....
Beastie Boys may have a new album Tad Lock's Glasses out before Bonnaroo that they describe as a "weird" sounding record that will include sampling, rhyming, and the works. If that makes any difference to this discussion.

Why would you assume that Phish is also going to play before the time that AC Superfly just confirmed?
this thread is full of fail.
Not assuming anything...just thinking if that Superfly was going to have BBoys as a 3rd headliner, they would've mentioned it in the recent article, but they're not. They may be in the Jack Johnson slot of last year except at a later time...and maybe Phish gets a late night headlining slot before they open up the other stages again. Who knows? All I'm saying is, through the articles and all of the rumors that have been mentioned and all the scenarios that can play out...most likely the headliner is someone who hasn't been announced yet, a la Jay-Z; or Phish takes a two hour late night slot on Saturday morning when no other bands will be allowed to play, if they don't go before what the article has stated.
And I assume you've read the other posts regarding Jane's Addiction as they are touring with NIN this summer, and it will be very easy to get them to come onboard providing they are playing festivals other than Lollapalooza.
