I did an annotated schedule again. The (maybe) final Google docs version is here, there is also a preformatted pdf version on the Bonnaroo Bound blog. This post saved me a brazilion years by listing all of the genres for this year (thanks cory's beard and Rothric). Any msitakes are mine, and I'm sure there's a few. Maybe I screwed up some times or band names or genres (I changed a few), let me know.

Check this thread out, lots of bands already categorized. Not to say everyone on there is correct, but should give you a starting point. Animal Collective definitely should be in the psychedelic category like you have them imo. Good luck!

Edward sharpe and the magnetic zeros i would pin more as Neo-Psychedelia/Hippie driven indie folk. There an amazing group lots of good tunes. There definitely in my top 5 bands at the moment.

No. I enjoy ES&MZ, but that'd be a poor characterization of their music. If I think Neo-Psychedelic I'm much more inclined to think more of AnCo, Flaming Lips, Tame Impala, Yeasayer, Mercury Revm and MGMT. I'm sure there's room for disagreement whenever categorizing music, but I think those are decent representations within the genre which ES&MZ clearly doesn't belong in. Folk is fine, throw "indie" on there if you want to differentiate between more traditional-sounding folk artists.

I guess i was trying to say they have like a 60's psychedelic folk feel without categorizing them as so, because theres not many bands around that are like that anymore. Maybe its just me like you said there's room for disagreement and I definitely understand where your coming from with the neo-psychedelic genre being more of (bands listed above) thing. But in all I feel the psychedelic genre has lost alot of its touch with the earlier 60's san francisco bay area scene, where alot of the bands started as folk/jug/blugrass groups/artists and in turn carried much of that inspiration into there corn fueled music. I don't know how much sense this actually made but i understand it!

ESMZ: 60s folk throwback
The neo-psychedelic George mentioned has an emphasis on the 'neo', throwing in things like sampling & more electronic instrumentation. Taking more from the experimental side of psychedelia than from its folk roots

You list Tragic Seahorse as avant-garde, jazz and soul-influenced, neo-alt-dubstep-pop. But I can't think of a band that better typifies avant-garde, jazz and R&B influenced neo-alt-dubstep-pop. What the fvck were you thinking?

Yeah I see how someone could think that... if you haven't been into them for that long. I was into them in the pre-Chocolate Starfish era (you know, before they were cool), and then they were definitely soul-influenced (I read it in Pitchfork).

Mercury Rev is still around? I saw them open for Hum years ago. Back then their live stuff was pretty intense to me!

Best part: how can you not see peanut butter dreamsicle? Easily, there's no band by that name playing roo! But this is definitely helpful to find some cafe acts I might be into durin my schedules down time, keep up the good work!
I had meant to mention this before, slipped my mind. If you're printing up a schedule to bring to 'roo, I'd recommend Rite in the Rain waterproof paper. They make three main types "All Weather Copier" (also works w/ laser printers) and two synthetic ones "Duracopy" and "Weatherjet" (for inkjets). I've only used the "All Weather Copier" with a laser printer so my comments refer to that. It is very good stuff. It is real paper, not plastic sheets. It feels like regular paper with a slight slickness to it and it really is waterproof. It stands up to rain, sweat, being folded and unfolded, and does a good job of holding the print. You can buy it from the website but their shipping is a little high, places on amazon have it with free shipping. I'm not affiliated with them in any way, I've just had great luck w/ the paper. If you print on regular paper, you'll probably want to put in in a ziplock bag to keep it dry, otherwise it will disintegrate pretty quickly from sweat/rain.
