If they're not the Friday headliner, then I think they'll close Which or play Which late night. Or they could spit the Friday headliner with between Arcade Fire/Daft Punk kind of like they did in '09 with Beasties/Phish.
yes plz
I would be quite alright with this... AF all the way.
Let me put it this way--I can't imagine anyone being disappointed if they do headline. I was nearly in tears when they finished their regular set with "Rebellion (Lies)" this past Friday. It was that amazing. And then they finished their encore with "Wake Up," and that was just too perfect for words. Easily one of the best shows that I've ever been to, and I've been to a lot. Easily.
I'm seeing them tomorrow at the Ryman. Your comments are making me all that more excited. I haven't really stopped listening to Suburbs yet....sooooo good.

i hate this time because all the poster's lineups usually look so epic. like, is there any real chance that Roo would have MMJ, the Stones, Daft Punk, Gorillaz, Tom Waits, Cheech & Chong and Primus at the top of the bill?

Alright, I know I'm not a well known poster (because I just like to read what everyone says) but I went to Bonnaroo in 09 and 10. Last night I went to Lollapalooza strictly for Arcade Fire. I did not know how they would fair with the crowd with the reunion of Soundgarden but what I experienced was unbelievable with Arcade Fire's set. Words cannot describe the set. I was near the front and couldn't see the crowd but it was just great to hear everyone yell the beginning part of "Wake Up" and swaying their arms in unison during "Crown of Love" I heard rumors that they outdrew Soundgarden (I don't know if that is true or not, (CoS said 50K festival goers on that side of the park with Arcade Fire) but Arcade Fire brought it and proved that they are worthy headliners for big festivals especially in the United States. Arcade Fire has so much energy live, jumping up and down just bringing passion into their live performance. I personally thing that they would be totally fit in that Friday night What Stage slot. I would love to see Arcade Fire/ Daft Punk on Friday Night but that is my personal opinion. But I just came in to say that I expect nothing less than Arcade Fire to be headlining Friday. People may disagree with me and that's ok.

One last thing, I do NOT want MGMT to play Bonnaroo 2011. The crowd was horrendous last night for them. There were to many douchebag fans and bros...It was horrible at Lollapalooza. I haven't experienced any of those types of people at Bonnaroo (yet) but I don't want them to start flocking south.
Also has anyone thought about The Strokes has a possibility? I mean they wouldn't be to bad! I don't know if they are classified as a What or Which Stage. Sadly though I heard they played for 55 mins in their 90 min set.
The audience for MGMT in 08 was alright, surprisingly mellow. Dunno about 09 (was at NIN), but they did get very hip in late '08, so...
Yeah that's when I first started listening to MGMT, During the Lolla 08 I was grateful that the crowd was mellow but now its a bunch of 16 and 17 year olds ( I know I'm 19 but still) who only know the three popular songs by them. 09 I was in the back for them at Bonnaroo and the people around me were not pushing they were just dancing but with most people now its all about pushing and shoving people around them.
So from what I am gauging from Lolla, Arcade Fire: 1. Had a noticeably larger crowd than Soundgarden 2. "Outshined" Soundgarden (Billboard Article: "Arcade Fire Outshines Soundgarden To Cap Lollapalooza") 3. Put on a "religious experience" and crafted a wonderful set list and created an intimate show, for a stadium audience. (MTV & Rolling Stone articles recapping Day 3 of Lollapalooza)
They need to be at Bonnaroo. And I feel they could be gaining momentum toward headlining Friday.

This needs to happen!
Edit: As things stand, Arcade Fire has more momentum placing them as a Friday Headliner. Then we have My Morning Jacket coming out with a new album next Spring.
Could we be looking at the possibility of Arcade Fire headlining Friday with My Morning Jacket LN on Which?
That would be pretty decent.

^ Arcade fire and mmj both deserve good spots but as far as who would headline over the other there's no telling. I think this scenario would be just as possible the other way around. None of this matters though, since levon helm should headline every day anyway.
I think mmj has a slightly bigger name (barely), but with arcade fire's latest album being so awesome they might get the headliner spot. Either way I think we are in for a treat, and I would put money on one of the two headlining.

i would put money on them being there but not headlining.

What if MMJ and Arcade Fire both headline? I know it's farfetched, but...I don't think it's too much of a reach to say the headliners could be Macca, Daft Punk, Arcade Fire, and Jacket, and then maybe have WSP fifth or sixth on the bill to appease the jam band crowd. Unlikely, but not the most unlikely possibility.
After all the hyperbolic reviews of this Arcade Fire tour, though, I don't see any way they don't headline. I think if only one of MMJ and AF can headline, it'll be AF, which really sucks for Jacket since they definitely have put in the work to earn a headlining spot.
That would really rule. I think Arcade Fire into a Daft Punk What late night would be even more epic, though.
this = $awesome$
As far as both bands headlining, it would be entertaining but I'm betting AC will try and diversify the headliners as much as possible to sell more tickets. To me, this means either AF or MMJ will get bumped down or maybe not be there at all.

I really can't see either being left off the bill entirely. I could definitely see only one of the two headlining, unless AC is convinced that MMJ can fill the headlining jamband requirement. But I don't think they're nearly jammy enough to, unfortunately. So, yeah, I think only one of the two will headline and I think it'll be Arcade Fire. But I still think MMJ will be on the bill and probably get a late night.

If I had to guess U2- more expensive than DMB Clapton- more expensive than KOL Arcade Fire- much less expensive than Stevie Wonder MMJ- much less expensive than Jay-Z
