According to the recently locked thread about last year's announcement, they announced on Jan. 24th that the lineup would be relaeased on Feb. 14, 2007. So that was a 21 day wait after the date was given, before the lineup release.

today, please.
Well, given that they've decided not to have any early bird tickets this year, I'd say their precedent for following precedent has been broken . So a sudden announcement only a day or two before tickets go on sale might not necessarily be out of the question....

Oh...I was wondering when someone would ask about that. It's a cut & paste from some random live music messageboard I came across one day doing a google search for something I don't remember now. I just thought it was funny since it's pretty much the opposite attitude of anyone on inforoo. ;D

All I know is what I posted above about last year. 06 was my first year at Roo and the lineup was already out when I started looking into it.

Will they even give a warning of when its coming out or will they just put it up one day?

I think Superfly needs to be convinced that the release of the lineup for this year will help save the stock market... Nothing like a little Roo spirit to help a bad day...

I knew if I posted that, someone would have a good reason to hope for a better scenario this year. ;D Karma when I can.

Ah, I see... I read it, and was like WTF!! I gotta ask... _____________________________________________________ Any-hoo-ha,.... I think ALLOT will be different this year... One can't really base what is going to happen this year based on previous ones...
Like I said, the day the facebook thing ends, which is on a wednesday, which is the 30th... the lineup will be released and we will all be happy but we will bitch about which bands SHOULD have been on the lineup
what facebook thing are you talkin about? link or explanation would be appreciated

Well.... I just set a program up to check the 2008 artists page every 15 minutes, and to email and text message the whole page me if it changes at any point...It'll run for the next 30 days, so I'll know within 15 minutes of the lineup change.

I do too, seriously.
And I say his life will consist of hunting down leaks by traveling across the country and by torturing people by pushing his eyeball into his socket... disgusting

Well, thats a bit more twisted way to look at it, but, whatever gets the lineup out works.

godd**n.
I sure do love modern technology.
how did you do that?
I'd say with a script to pull up the URL every 15 minutes, parse the headers for the last-modified datestamp field, compare it with the last datestamp, and if it didn't match, post a canned message to his local SMTP server.

I just hope the lineup gets announced ASAP! And I'm going to try not to fret if the lineup seems weak to me, because I'm pretty sure they continue to book artists during the time leading up to roo. So all is well!

They announce like 3 or so sets of additions after the initial lineup.
But even if there aren't any bands you are interested in seeing right now doesn't mean there won't be any kick ARSE shows. Sometimes the best shows come from the unlikeliest places

i tried setting this up, set up the servers correctly... but www.bonnaroo.com and also the artists page both sent back errors to me upon first retreival...
"Error: No or incompatible content" was the first few emails... any clues as to where i'm going wrong?

Odd... I used the 2008 artists page url (http://www.bonnaroo.com/artists/2008.aspx) and it worked just fine for me.
Do you have some kind of firewall that could be blocking the program's web access?
. So a sudden announcement only a day or two before tickets go on sale might not necessarily be out of the question....
