I wish they would, but I wouldn't bank on it since they haven't for the last two years.
If they were going to, it would need to somehow involve both Les Claypool (since Primus is probably going to be there) and Robert Plant (since Band of Joy is going to be there).

Nah....Claypool got the "superjam" in 2008.
I'd like to see others get a chance. Plant would be cool but I don't think that would happen.

Yeah I know the chances are small at best, but seriously, there's so much talent on the farm, even if it fell through in 09, how hard would it be to get a few artists to jam together? You'd think they'd jump on an opportunity like that
From what I heard (and I could be wrong, but I thought I saw an interview stating this), the Ben Harper, John Paul Jones, and ?uestlove SuperJam was thrown together rather soon before the show and that they only really played and practiced together while they were on the farm, perhaps even the day of or day before the SuperJam.
With people as talented as they have on the farm, it should not be that difficult. Make a late night time slot, find 3-5 willing artists, and let them melt some Bonnaroo faces

That was the only pre-announced Superjam, they said it would happen like two weeks before Bonnaroo if I remember correctly.

2010 was the same story as 2009 - as I understand it, rehearsals didn't sound too great, so they decided not to go forward with things (I can't speak as to who was supposed to be involved).
I expect them to try again this year; hopefully they will try to coordinate things in advance.
Also - the other Superjam in 2008 was the Jazz/New Orleans theme with Porter and company.

Do you know who was supposed to be in the 2010 one?
What is preferable for desert island stranding when choosing comapny a juggalo or a wook you must decide between the two. After 5 responses I will give my answer and reasoning.
1-1-12 Bassnectar NYE SHOW! 1-21-12 G. Love and Special Sauce 3-1-12 Radiohead 3-9-12 Experience Hendrix 5-15-12 Jack White @ The Ryman 6-7-12 Bonnaroo 6-19-12 Roger Waters presents "THE WALL" 7-7-12 Ringo Starr's 72nd Birthday Party Extravaganza at the Ryman
Well Juggalos tend towards being fat, I am guessing you would get as much as two weeks more of food if properly rationed. They probably taste like faygo however. However odds are the wook brought a dog so that ups the caloric value. This is a hard one.

all parts of the wook can be used. his hair for rope, its usually already dreaded or braided that way. the teeth should be yellow enough to hail planes flying overhead and their hemp skirts can be stretched around their hula hoops, adorned with glow sticks and you have yourself a disco shower.

When you look at it, we already have two SuperJam's in Robert Plant and Gregg Allman. The talent in both of those bands is enough to be considered just that. And I'm sure they'll both be throwing in a few covers. I do hope they bring back the "official" one though.
Wook. I base my conclusion on concerns that, if the Juggalo doesn't like my attitude (very possible), he/she may throw feces on me. The wook would be less likely to do that.
Also, a Juggalo would spend his time talking about ICP shows, while a wook (at least a decent wook) would spin yarns about WSP & .moe lot dawg escapades...again, the wook wins in a landslide.

Yeah, I wouldn't count on Robert Plant doing anything other than Band of Joy. In 2008, he was backstage during Robert Randolph . During the encore, Robert Randolph announced T-bone burnett on stage, and said maybe we can get Robert Plant out here. He started playing Whole Lotta Love, and other Zeppelin riffs for a good 5 minutes and the crowd was pumped. Plant just planted his butt backstage and never showed. I love Led Zeppelin, but Robert Plant just seems like an egomaniac who doesn't care what the fans want. Which is why we may never get a Led Zep reunion

Robert Plant played an acoustic set for me and 9 other people at a bar with Alison Krauss when he had just popped in for a beer after a radio interview. He seemed like a pretty solid dude then. At his age he may well have to warm up his voice to sing or risk straining himself for a later set.
