They have done 2 superjams before. 08 comes to mind with both the NOLA superjam and the "regular" one.
Yup. And last year they promoted 3 superjams. That's why I'm hoping there's a Bluegrass Supergroup set as well as a regular superjam. Could be good stuff in both.

Technically I guess the Gogol one wasn't a typical Superjam but they did have guests. The poster lists three shows so those were the 3 I was referring to. Looking at it now It's clear that the Dr. John set wasn't really a Superjam....I guess I just remembered them promoting 3 things under the Superjam box.

2008 was also the year they had the Bluegrass Allstars - I've got a hunch this is just the next iteration of that.
God I hope so! I missed it in '08. This kinda thing would be so easy to put together too. Nashville's only an hour away, and we have so many pickers to choose from. Bela Fleck, Jerry Douglas, and Sam Bush would make me so freakin happy
In the cinema tent? Not much of stage there for band set-ups... Unless you take out the front several rows of seats. Or, make the cinema tent BIGGER (!) Or, do it in one of the tent pavilions...
Were you in the movie tent at all last year? It's bigger than it used to be. I saw Preservation Hall Jazz Band play in there after their documentary. They don't need a stage....just somewhere for the bands to stand. It should work out fine.
Reggie Watts just needs a keyboard/piano and his little devices that he uses on his live show anyway.
Wasn't '10 just an open air big screen? Did they go back to a closed theater last year?

It looks like you are correct. They are doing a set at Telluride. They are calling it the Telluride House Band with Sam, Bela, Jerry, Bryan Sutton, & Stuart Duncan.

Didn't go in 2010. Only year since '05 that I missed. Not sure how the cinema tent was but it was definitely a closed theater last year.
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.

I just got home from work not expecting anything to be going on here... this is all so bizarre. I'm just really excited to see the Dirty Guv'nahs on the list now.

In 2010 they had the Lunar I think that is what he is referring to.
Yup your right i forgot about the lunar. I watched the finals there but forgot late night it turned into dj's. That was far more comfortable watching the celtics outside instead of in the tent in 08.

Yeah this is really awesome.
As far as musical acts go, it appears that the new ones are:
Bethesda (These guys are actually from my city) Bluegrass Supergroup Casey Driessen Dirty Guv'nahs GZA Hudost North Mississippi Allstars Duo Sara Watkins Savages
Now we only had 4-5 open spots left on the lineup, so some of these are likely going to be cafe acts. Bluegrass Supergroup, GZA, NMA Duo and Sara Watkins all will be surely be stage acts. Any of the others seem too big for a cafe?

Yeah just based on Facebook likes it appears Dirty Guv'nahs might be the other stage act. They have 17,000 likes while acts like Bethesda, Casey Driessen and HuDost have under 2,000
