Looking like (hopefully) I was right about Slightly Stoopid being dropped from the initial lineup. Based on their current billing EotS would have been on that Bonnaroo365 background if it was a leak of additions.

Anyone else think Solange had such a great time singing with The xx at coachella that she said "Hey! That was fun! I want to do that again!" and then The xx said "Well, blimey, why don't you come to Bonnaroo with us?!"
I think I posted this before, but I'll mention it again.
Dillinger Escape Plan has a bonnaroo gap between their US tour and overseas tour. So far their current US dates are everywhere BUT Tennessee.
somebody asked them (pre-lineup announcement) if they would be there this year and they said they wouldn't be. Should be listed in the direct confirmations thread... Although at this point maybe things are different
I know I'm reaching for the stars, but they asked them that back in january. Dillinger Escaple Plan didn't announce tour dates until last month, seems odd they would purposefully not play TN. Also, now the band they are touring with just got added (Royal Thunder).
Weak additions (for me anyway), but the overall lineup still has me jacked!
I'm with you. In the 5 or 6 years I've been following and occasionally going to Bonnaroo they have never added a single ban I have wanted to see. But it's ok, now there is less chance for some awful conflict and being forced to miss something.
I would expect a few more additions. They're going to have a hell of a time filling out that EDM tent with what they have.
Dude. Stop. You keep saying "EDM tent," when Capps has only referred to it as "electronic." Please refer to Moogfest/Mountain Oasis for Capps/Superfly's idea of "electronic." Highly unlikely that it's Bonnaroo's equivalent of the Sahara or Perry's.
Empire of the Sun, Beach House, Wolfgang Gartner, Boys Noize, Porter Robinson, Matt & Kim, A-Trak, Conspirator, Holy Ghost, Paper Diamond, Purity Ring, Araabmuzik, Four Tet, Death Grips, Wild Nothing, Ariel Pink, Charli XCX are all acts I could see fitting in there, with the more purely "EDM" stuff being later at night. But that's 17 acts. 6 per day sounds about right. I think you're getting a few more (since I think some of these are Thursday bands as well), but I really don't think they're going to drop the Lunar Stage lineup on you, especially since its been made clear that this is NOT a new stage, just a repurposing of one of the old ones. Hell, Pretty Lights, Passion Pit and The XX all fit the bill as well, but I think they're all too big for a tent.
I might be wrong, and they might suddenly announce 5-10 more strictly EDM names, but I really don't see it happening. The lineup is overloaded as is.
I mean, I see your point, but there's still a good chance Capps does it just to show up Coachella and Lolla.
