My you people are hostile. I guess I learned my lesson in not giving a dissenting opinion here.
You know I wasn't trying to start an argument here, you guys were. I was just showing my disappointment as a fan CoS and an aspiring journalist in how the whole line-up announcement mishap could have been avoided, and gave a simple rational explanation why that was the case. Also pointing out that I have always been a fan and supporter of CoS for a long time.
This place used to be an awesome message board where if someone highly disagreed with someone, there would actually be CIVIL discussions about it, instead of making shots at people and using profanity.
Lerxst:
To me, you came on pretty strident in your complaint about COS. But after explaining, I guess I understand your perspective a little better.
You're alright in my book.
Best wishes as you approach graduation, and for when you begin your career.
well as much as i want to see the line-up on the 2nd...if it means getting a whole bunch of new artists on the line-up i think i can wait the extra week!! wooo bonnarooo don't let us down!
Last Monday, Promoter Ken Weinstein with Big Hassel Media told Thunder Radio of Manchester that the initial lineup would be released February 2nd.
It was supposed to be the 2nd. Yesterday djjd, who works for AC Entertainment and does Roo Clues each year, tweeted that the lineup would not be out until the 9th...

I didn't think he came out and said it was being delayed a week, I just thought he re-tweeted sublimes tweet. I don't know anything about twitter really so I might just have been misreading it. Neither here nor there I'm not expecting to see the lineup until next week considering we still haven't seen an official word and tommorow is feb 1.

I suppose I could have been mistaken about the tweet, but yeah, they haven't made an announcement concerning the pending announcement...
Ordinarily I'd be upset at the delay, but it's alright, because I know that it's been delayed a week just so that Superfly can have time to work out a deal with Neil Young, who was slated to headline Rothbury.
The lineup coming out a week later than expected might be a good thing.
Rothbury just cancelled a week or so ago right? Wellllllllllll I think some of those artists are going to be added on to our first look at the lineup and to get all this in order it might take an extra week. I am just as impatient as the rest but I am trying to stay positive and I think this is a logical explanation as to why it's the 9th vs the 2ed.

^ I hope so. I said on another thread that Rothbury and 10KL not happening this year would only make Bonnaroo stronger, so an extra week of preperations is OK in my book.

But how many artists could really be added at this point. I'm sure they already have a massive lineup ready to unveil, and while the idea of luring big acts from roth and 10kl sounds promising, I don't think they would do it at the expense of releasing acts already signed to play the festival. Unless they would use this opportunity to bypass the artists additions that usually occur over the next month or so I can't see too much happening to the lineup over the next week that isn't already decided.
1. The festivals that were canceled werent on the same weekend as Roo!
2. Most undercards dont have exclusive no competes!
I think if the delay(was it truely a delay?) has anything to do with locking down acts from Roth or 10klf it is for top tier/headlining acts!
And, if my memory serves correct, didnt the lineup come out last year at midnight the monday after the superbowl? So this would be no different than last year, right?

The 2ed tier could always be shorter this year instead

Good news peeps- just got handed a note with the latest round of adds for B'roo. Some of my all time faves I see before me on this paper about 1 hour ago from web
Does this mean we may be getting the line-up before next tuesday?!
Could this possibly just be a hoax to calm down a bunch of over anxious inforooers from finding out the line-up before they actually release it like last year? Admittedly, a few hours wasn't a big difference.
Also, I think it's very likely that they are trying to get these artists that had been canceled from other fests. Reason, those artists still want to be paid, and festivals are very big right now. Especially, when you're trying to get your name out.
Quit doubting the roo. We're all going to have a sh!t eating grin when it finally comes out.
what if they dont say anything about the lineup date and then they release it on a day nobody was thinking of just to throw us all off...it would be very sneaky of roo
