With this tour starting in February I don't think we"ll be seeing them at Roo. I suspect the additional tour dates will be added to the back end of this preliminary batch of shows. I just don't see them still being on tour in the U.S. in June.

Maybe something like this?
February, March: USA April: Canada + Coachella? May-June: South America? June: USA + Europe July-August: Europe

Last time they toured it wasn't just one big tour like you're suggesting. It was several smaller legs.
May '08: South/Southern Midwest then 3 weeks off June/early July '08: Europe then a 3 weeks off August '08: Midwest/Northeast (including Lolla) Oct '08: Japan Mar '09: Mexico and South America Aug '09: Eastern Europe (Austria, Czech Rep, Poland) and 2 UK festivals
I presume so that they don't get too worn out. I could see:
Feb/Mar: South/Southwest Mar/April: Midwest/West Coast (inc Coachella) May: Europe June: Eastern part of Midwest/Northeast (inc Bonnaroo) July/August: Europe or South America or Japan
and sprinkle in Canadian cities when they're close to them, or something like that.
The fact that AC said they are "working on it" (meaning Radiohead) is a good sign, I think. Don't write them off.
When/where was this??
The Infoo-Moog group had brunch at Tupelo Honey cafe, and Ashley Capps randomly walked in. Our beloved mod TheDruid just went up to him and point blank asked about Radiohead. He said (in her words): "We're working on it". He asked her if there were rumors.
Hollie spotted Ashley while we were eating at Tupelo Honey. I confirmed it was indeed him with two other tables full of inforoosters. I waited for him to finish his phone call and pounced.
Introduced myself, told him I was enjoying the festival, blah blah blah. I finished off with "work on getting us Radiohead for Bonnaroo please". He said, "We are working on it." I thanked him and turned to leave. He grabbed my arm and asked if there were rumors. He seemed to be genuinely interested. I told him that there were always rumors, and if there weren't, we made them up.
Understand, that I am sure they are always working on getting Radiohead. Really getting them is another matter.

Is it possible that by AC asking about any Radiohead rumors he's implying that headliners are sometimes confirmed through the media/internet before Superfly knows about it? I guess, kind of like how sometimes pro sports players get traded and find out on ESPN before their team tells them? I never considered that possibility before.

This does happen, but to backups and bench players. Not to guys like Dwayne Wade, Albert Pujols, Adrian Peterson, etc.
Radiohead is the music-equivalent of one of those athletes, not a backup.

Good point, I just thought it was a weird thing to ask unless he was just being really nice and wanting to show interest in the board. I wonder how long they do wait around for a band like Radiohead to confirm though, if they are truly "working on it".
So no western dates announced yet. Those guys are definitely gonna be at Coachella. Now I have to decide on buying tix to the Dallas show or not spoil it and see it there...hmmm
I'm banking on them at Coachella and not buying KC tickets.

This is probably the smarter thing for me to do considering I already have Coach tickets.
In the spring tour thread, GL quotes the Dallas tickets as being on a scale from $45 to $85, I think. A link was posted that points towards Atlanta tickets being $69 across the board.
It just keeps telling me I have nothing in my basket when I click "Buy Tickets"
FRUSTRATING!
My girlfriend had some then it timed out. Gah
this happened to me, but i tried again and it said there were tickets i went to buy one anywhere and it said no tickets available for this venue
So annoying! For her, after she reloaded the page it said she still had them in her basket but the quantity had gone from 4 to 0. She tried to change the quantity instead of just requesting again, but it wouldn't work.

I JUST saw this. When he asked if there are any rumors, she should have said "There are now!"
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.
