The only additions (besides Something Else and cafe) I see happening would be the Allman Brothers Band or something similar (Black Crowes maybe) and Thursday acts, in which case Public Enemy would be a late night on Friday on The Which Stage and Snoop would open the What Stage. I think Galactic will try to do an African inspired set. It'd be a night time set (7:45 to 9:15 maybe).
Thoughts on the mock?
I like your mock for the most part but there are a few things that I don't like. I don't think Grizzly Bear will play on Which Stage on Friday, I just don't see it. I really don't think Crystal Castles will be during the day. I dont think Superjam will be on Friday because I would bet that a member of Phish will be a part of it so I really dont think it will be Friday. Also the more and more I think about it the more im sure that Animal Collective will have a late night. They would add a good conflict to late night electronica and late night Phish. I think Crystal Castles and Animal Collective will be sharing a late night tent on Friday.
Now that I think about it, I think you are dead on with that Crystal Castles/Animal Collective pairing because I couldn't see Galactic and Crystal Castles. Yeah I just put Grizzly Bear to fill the slot. After listening to Raphael Saadiq I think him before Al Green would be perfect. I did some shuffling around on the mock. I moved SuperJam to Friday night (not late night) because I don't know where to put and I think the Saturday late nights are pretty well set so I really think SuperJam will have to have a preheadliner slot and Friday was the easiest place to put it. As far as a member of Phish playing in SuperJam, I'd be shocked if Mike Gordon didn't play in SuperJam so that is possible with that slot. Although Galactic's drummer would be busy, I'm sure someone could sub.
can somebody please make a mock schedule where there is a act on the mainstage What at 1 pm instead of every day it starting at 3 or later. It angers me how bonnaroo doesn't put that many acts on the mainstage at 1 when they can.

Sadly, I think the 1PM slots are done. It's less and less every year. Last year there was no 1PMs on the main stage.
Anyone else think that they may not open the What Stage til Al Green on Friday night. They seem to like having only two main stage acts before the headliner per day. I really don't see any band to open the What Stage on Friday. There are a lot of possiblities but not seems likely to me so far.
yeah, no way grizzly bear plays the which stage. and i'll bet anyone everything i own, that band of horses will be on the which stage.
Yeah I wasn't seeing Band of Horses on the Which Stage but I did some shuffling and if Andrew Bird is playing on Friday, that'd actually be pretty likely. I managed to fit Superjam on Sunday evening which would make more sense than what I had.
I really hope that late saturday night doesn not turn out like expecting TMV, NIN, MGMT, moe, and ben harper all at the same time is crippling, is moe actually gonna be at the other tent he seems like more of a which stage day time act, also ben harper should be a day time act
We need to create a petition for them to put acts on the mainstage at 1pm.
I don't see how putting more acts on that large of a stage is a good thing. There aren't enough bands on the lineup that should be playing on that large of a stage. I'd much rather see acts at which or the tents, which are more suitable for the artists further down the lineup.

So add some bands that are large enough to be playing on that stage and place them earlier in the day, this way we get more acts and bands are on all stages of the day.
right... cuz they have the money to add more large scale acts,
i dont think people understand that festivals of this size do not have unlimited resources, and they want to make the fans happy, but they still have a business to run.
we all want big acts added, but the reality is we shouldn't expect it. I honestly HATE the big stage at any festival, and I will only go to that stage when a band worthy of the size of the stage is playing there, aka the headliners.
where does it say that citizen cope is 2pm on the which stage?
i sent most of the artists emails on myspace asking when they were playing. he was the only one that gave an exact time and stage. galactic told me fri. for sure, said they don't know if it's late night and the only guests they will have is some horn players. most of them say they don't know their set time yet.

good work sangreal.
and i'm shocked that citizen cope's getting a stage slot.
Here is an update of the mock that I posted awhile ago. Def. hard to make a mock now with so many acts its hard to tell how they are going to schedule this year but I went with my best guesses. My schedule is pretty similar to Sangreals with a few key differences.

hmm, i took a brief break from inforoo and i haven't checked this thread in awhile. it's now looking like friday is going to be absolute torture with the conflicts.
i really hope that some bands currently pencilled for friday get spread out over saturday and/or sunday, depending on how the saturday/sunday lineups develop. and animal collective really does need to be late night! both to relieve daytime conflicts, and for the fact that they would make a great late night act.
but still... david byrne, tvotr, and YYYs all possibly conflicting sucks hard.

i dont think they should open the what stage that early. that stage is intimidating on a hot day in Tennessee. i would much rather retreat to the tents when the sun is blazing hot at 1-2PM and head over there as the suns setting, so if they open it that early i am more than likely to miss some acts.

So I'm beginning to think Superjam must be moving back to Sunday. I'm waiting to see what day Gomez plays because if they end up on Friday before Bon Iver (the only open slot I see), I could see one of the Sunday tents going as follows: Mike Farris, Ted Leo and RX, Andrew Bird, and Super Jam.
I'm kinda set on the Dead Weather being there since their album comes out June 17th and they are based in Nashville, TN. Somehow, I get the feeling that Super Jam will be an unannounced Dead Weather show in a tent after Andrew Bird. It would fall under the GRAB SuperJam category as not really being a SuperJam but, that type of SuperJam (unannounced set from an already established act) has happened before. Also, they are made up of three different established groups. I don't know, just a thought.

Im pretty confident that Superjam will be Saturday Late Night. I think this means that either Mars Volta plays during the day or Yeasayer/MGMT dont end up playing a latenight. I hope its the latter, since Yeasayer/MGMT would make for a pretty lame late night.

Yeah I agree on hoping MGMT gets moved if anyone does. I can't see them moving Volta since it was their 2005 late night show that is the main reason for their return. Last year Roo seemed to move away from jam bands as late nights so I really think SuperJam will be moved back to Sunday. They already have Ben Harper and moe on Saturday. Friday has Femi Kuti and Phish. I really see them moving it just because of the lack of electronic acts that would result if they did not. it's just an argument of balance for me.
