Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
Why haven't the dates been posted yet? Pre-sale is happening soon and we don't even know when roo is going to take place. Obviously it will be June 9th-12th but I'd like the comfort of knowing. Does the fact that we really don't have any solid rumors yet mean that this year's lineup is extra top-secret? I hope so...

I think they announced the dates fer the festival when they announced there would be a pre-sale last year.
And again, I wouldn't get my hopes super high fer this line-up. Could, and probably will, just lead to some disappointment. Expect maybe one or two super cool artists, but then just a solid line-up. At least that's what I'm doin'.

I expect good things from this lineup, but I haven't been "disappointed" with any Bonnaroo lineup. Some are definitely better than others, but each is solid in their own way.
This year seems harder to gauge. With it being the 10th year anniversary some say it will have some of the best performers of years past, but I believe it will be fresh as well. Time will tell.
CoS has Arcade Fire rumored for Coachella. Wonder if that's a good or bad sign for Bonnaroo.
Jay-Z, LCD Soundsystem, Avett Bros, She & Him, Les Claypool, Phoenix, Bassnectar, the xx, Tokyo Police Club, Local Natives, Miike Snow, Lucero, Mayor Hawthorne, and The Middle East all played both fests this year.
I grew up worshipping Rock and Roll like a religion. I know its shortcomings and strengths but have loved it unconditionally all the same since I was eight-years old. I ran away and joined the circus and honestly, I'm still as obsessed as I was as a boy. I'm not a kid anymore but I still remember how it felt and it doesn't really feel all that different to me now.

Neither. However, according to AF's booking agent they will be touring the US from April to May next year. While Bonnaroo isn't in that range of time I still think it is a good sign.

I'm not setting my hopes unrealistically high but if they didn't want us to have high expectations they shouldn't be advertising the ten year anniversary as such a huge event. I do think that the lineup should be the best yet because it is the tenth anniversary. If we land Radiohead, some other big act(Macca, Bowie, Prince, Neil, Daft Punk), and a solid undercard I'll be estatic. That being said, the lineup could be sub par and I would still have the time of my life.
I think Buffalo Springfield would be a really solid #2 or #3 on the lineup, and a great Sunday closer. As for Arcade Fire, the only way I don't see them at Bonnaroo is if they are touring overseas after their US stretch. Even then, like with Jay-Z, I could see it still happening. I think Coachella doesn't affect their status here at all.

When did they do that? I'm pretty sure that was us....
Radiohead - Buffalo Springfield - Gorillaz - Widespread Panic My Morning Jacket -- Arcade Fire -- The Roots with John Legend Fistful of Mercy - Primus - MGMT - Drake - Jimmy Fallon - Vampire Weekend
I don't understand how that picture implies anything about the 10th anniversary being any more epic than any other year. 2011 will be the 10th Bonnaroo, and they're simply letting it be known. They just want people thinking about it. It's simple marketing.
This is the first message board I've ever been on, the only reason I joined is because I love Bonnaroo and wanted to read and talk about it all year long.
