I am unsure if anyone has posted this but A Perfect Circle are touring this summer and they have a large gap in the dates with pretty much the whole month of June. This would be awesome!

A Perfect Circle sure seem to be holding out on saying when their tickets go on-sale maybe they are waiting tell they announce they are going to be at Bonnaroo before they release the sale info sure there's really no logic there, but it sounds cool right?

I have no basis for this but I just don't see APC being there. I also have a gut feeling that there won't be a really big add just some solid mid to low tier acts. Here's to hoping I'm totally wrong
Perhaps this is too Canadian a dream, but I'm really hoping that the Sam Roberts Band gets added. They have a new album coming out, just announced a tour, have an opening in their schedule Roo weekend and absolutely KILLED it on the farm back in 2007. Their support act is Zeus, quite possibly the most underrated band on the planet right now, and I would kill for these two acts to somehow make it to Manchester.
One of my first concerts ever was Sam Roberts and The Trews cant get much more Canadian than that.

Since APC will likely only be in chicago (maybe, lolla) during a weekend I will be in GA for one of my best friends weddings, I hope they get added.

See I think there's deffinatly gonna be atleast one big add. You gotta think how much of a great business move would it be to let ticket sales go on for awhile and then die off alittle and then slap a big name out there. It would be like a turbo boost of sales if the name was big enough.

What I hope and assume is the reason they have not announces the additions yet is maybe they are/were waiting on completing negotiations on a big name or two. APC is wishful thinking on my part.
I do hope for a bit more metal. Deftones, Trivium, DEP and if I am talking Deftones then Team Sleep.

do you suppose that since Shpongle (whom we've basically known where added for a while now) officially put 9-June on their facebook tour listening yesterday the additions are coming?
My buddy is on the AC entertainment "fancorp (street) team" which from my understanding is just a "grassroots" promotional type thing AC does. He was telling me this weekend based on everything he knew additions weren't coming till mid-april.
I find it hard to believe we'd have to wait another two weeks for additions but I thought I'd share. Take it for what its worth.
Maybe they're waiting for a sell out or something.
Surely additions would increase sells.
I was thinking they were waiting until after SXSW and Ultra to complete additions, because artists from both of those festivals would make up for what Roo's initial lineup was lacking.
I'd like to think we are going to get a few legit electronic artists/buzz bands added and those two festivals had many of them...

Don't lose heart, I'm on the street team too and we don't get any info on the inner workings of AC. I'm optimistic that we'll have something tomorrow, even if just comedy.
I also think with more bands slowly confirming through their own websites they will be there and so many acts announcing their summer tours that the additions should come soon.

But if they're going well enough as it is, it might make for a nice article, "Bonnaroo Sells Out of Tickets! Adds James Blake, Odd Future and Panda Bear. Huzzah!"

What with Eminem, Arcade Fire, Black Keys, The Strokes, Lil' Wayne? I think this is their most appealing mainstream while also staying alternative festival.
