So what about these additions? I thought they were GOING to announce one the day after the initial lineup was released, but then it had to be postponed because of weather. Whatever happened with that??

It really feels like Bonnaroo doesn't know what it's doing at this point. Day after the lineup comes out (especially after the way it came out) they say "Hey more surprises today!" Great we're going to get some cool bands added, everyone can stop whining. But then after a weather delay up come stupid videos where you can add names in, making it look like Simon and Garfunkel were originally on the lineup by linking to a video you made, but with an official Bonnaroo link.
Did they think people would actually get excited about that? They should know by now, we see surprises, we're going to think more bands are being added. Whoever is handling that side of the business should be fired. First the tweets which alluded to bands that weren't going to be there, then the videos. No other festival is stupid enough to do this sh.it.
Well we are still on hold for purchasing tickets this year. While there are a few shining stars on this current line up, we just don't see Stevie Wonder or Jay-Z as headliners. After last years show maybe we expect too much? Actually for the price of VIP I don't think we are....
Jay-Z and Stevie Wonder are more credible headliners than Dave Matthews Band or Kings of Leon, who are both ranked ahead of those two.
Definetly have to agree
I suspect in terms of drawing power the order would be Jay-Z, Stevie, DMB, KOL. I haven't done the research, Does anyone have actual data on what these acts can draw? Maybe what their prices to play are?
It's curious how the headliners are ordered this year. I have no good explanation for it.
I went to the 2005 Bonnaroo and this is about the same lineup. Is kol a headliner? Who are the headliners ?? lol. Is this some kind of prank Bonnarro is playing? I keep looking for the Rollong Stones, or some last min. real headliner.I like Stevie Wonder but more of a oldies show, this is a thing I could take my grandparents to, lol.

Is there still some grey area over who will be headlining Saturday night? I still don't feel like I know for sure...
Actually, the whole lineup is one big grey cloud of doom and dispair this year. Does it really matter which sucky band gets to disappoint us which night?
I'm hoping the most suckiest headliner will be Sunday night.
me too
Sorry, but my sources tell me that this year, bands will be scheduled in order of popularity on Inforoo, from worst to first all weekend, in order to try to spread out the incoming traffic a little and avoid a mass exodus on Sunday.

If this is true, then every band on the lineup would be playing last. Could be confusing.

Not really. I can disclose that DMB will kick things off Thursday, followed by KOL, then Weezer.
Sunday things will wind down with Stevie Wonder > GWAR > Jay Z.
