here are a few that came to me during the reading of this 20 pages of genius deduction, chronic overthinking, and inane babble (haha): Rappers Jay Electronica and Curren$y are possibilities. Not sure how either would relate to europe though...dollars aren't used in europe? Weak, I know Powerman 5000...are they even still around? These are also all individuals, or in the case of the latter, a reference to a single person.
OK- I gotsa go back down in the Radio Roo studio. Keep them ears big and open. Ho ho ho...ho.
Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see how this isn't a clue.
ELEPHANT MAN's latest song was produced by OPEN EAR MUSIC. Elephant's have big ears. Hence, "ears big and open". Does that make sense to anyone else?
Elephant man seems like the kind of act that would go over well at 'Roo and seems like a good act to give clues for not too big, but still recognizable.

Big Ears Open can only mean one thing... Barack Obama! By June he should have the economy back on track, all of our wars won and troops home, and peace declared worldwide. The only thing left to do would be to come to Bonnaroo and declare corn legal by presidential decree then spark up a fat one and introduce The Dead.
This was all said in jest, please don't let this thread get political. Seriously we need some more clues.
i was wondering, if the intial clue/debatable clues were a test, its possible that someone on here got it right and we might not get anymore.
i dunno...
i thought i saw somewhere that bonnaroo radio wouldnt be updated till after the new year. that is most likely why we havent had new clues, because we dont have new radio yet.
so tomorrow is the first monday after the new year, so hopefully we have new radio tomorrow, which could bring new clues.

I STRONGLY doubt that they'd decide not to give us more clues based on us getting stuff right. If they didn't back off after we guessed last year's headliners when they didn't intend us to, they're not going to stop the clues due to correct guesses. Of course, we know if that we're too good at this, the clues get harder, but they do keep coming!

im just curious if the whole clue game is dj jd's idea to pass the time and instill madness or something ac/superfly stamped with their seal of approval.
the whole game seems different this time around, im just throwing possibilities out there.

It was initially dj jd's idea, but he's had Superfly's approval all along. As far as I know, he approached them about doing this and they said he could go ahead. They just weren't terribly thrilled that we guessed the big names so quickly, which is why the clues last year got harder after those first few.
I'm curious - what makes you say the whole thing seems different this time? We haven't really gotten started yet - at least in my mind. We've had a few posts that may or may not be clues, and only one that definitely seems like a clue. Not a single radio clue yet, and those are the big thing to me. So I think of our one clue being a teaser and the real game hasn't started yet.

well, is this the second year we've had djjd or is this a regular thing? i was assuming this was the second year, and if that's the case, it is different than last year in that the first clue came much earlier and probably exists only as, as you said, a teaser. everything he's posted on here is a teaser, no? but it's like giving us teasers of up coming riddles and teasers. it's insane. if this is the second year there isn't too much of a formula to follow, so we can't really say anything with certainty, especially with riddles. im a bit of a skeptic
Well I would not expect many clues to pop up here directly you really need to listen to Bonnaroo Radio to get them. Todd is the DJ there, anything important it will almost always be there first.
I've been listening to Radio Bonnaroo. No clues but I've been keeping track of the artists. Don't take them too seriously, especially when you see the last one on the list. It made me laugh.

Haha...I'm pretty sure they just automatically add any artists who play Bonnaroo.
I was so disappointed when I got onto Inforoo and saw that we were still at 20 pages here - I figure if we had clues the thread would jump way up. Oh well, shouldn't be long, I imagine.
I know last year we were told that Bonnaroo Radio plays artists from previous years, from the current year or whoever the dj happens to like/thinks fits the Roo vibe. So who knows
