Blah.. I finally made one and it took forever and still feels extremely shitty. I attempted to semi-stack thursday and make room for 3 quality additions. I also made a few big moves based on what I want and not what I think will happen.
I could be completely wrong with the lineup as stacked as it is, but I can't believe Bonnaroo would move Big Sam from Saturday What Stage in 2010 to Thursday in 2014.

(1) Damon Albarn (2) Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds (3) King Khan & His Shrines (4) Ty Segall (5) Ms Lauryn Hill (6) Darkside (7) Kanye (8) Janelle Monae (9) Goat (10) Meshuggah.
Talk about be careful what you wish for! While I think that's a much more accurate representation of where they'll play, it now gives me a direct 3-way conflict between Sam, Carolina Chocolate Drops, and Sarah Jarosz, three of my top ten for the weekend. Not sure what I'll do in that situation. I've seen Sarah 3 times so it'd be between Big Sam and CCD, but that's just depressing to think about.

Not that any of this matters at all but I changed it again. Yonder opening what sunday and you can (hopefully) see Sarah, Carolina, and Big Sams.
I haven't looked at all the past lineups lately, but I just don't feel like they would have Wiz on the Which immediately before Kanye. I could possibly see a hip hop act headlining the Which stage between two rock acts, though. Isn't that when Wu Tang played last year?
I also see a lot of folks put Ice Cube on the What, which seems odd to me, but I guess they are subbing out Kendrick Lamar from last year. Plus, he has a lot more adds on the scheduler than I expected. I figured he wouldn't appeal to the younger crowd, but maybe I'm wrong.
Also, I go back and forth on whether or not I predict/hope that they will add slots earlier on Thursday or cram in more acts into the tents during the day on Friday-Sunday. We already know that they will have 6 acts on the bluegrass stage, but for the most part we are likely to only have 5 per tent during the day.
It will also be interesting to see if they have a double bill on the Which stage after the headliner again on Friday and/or Saturday. That will have a huge impact on how they schedule the rest of the day.
Good lord, Jake Jortles, the thought of Saturday being Tedeschi Trucks > Bobby Womack > Phosphorescent > Chance > the end of Lionel Richie > Jack White > Frank Ocean > Disclosure is freaking insane. Thank you for making me hate everything about sitting in an office right now.
I want kpowers' mock to be true so bad, but I just can't believe Pusha T>James Blake on Thursday. But, damn it would free up so much room for activities.
Also the Die Antwoord/Cut Copy conflict would wreak havoc on my group, as would the Frank Ocean/Superjam. But if that's the worst I have to deal with. I lucked out.
Just for fun, that Saturday: Tedeschi Trucks Band>Bobby Womack>Seasick Steve>Danny Brown>Lauryn Hill>Damon Albarn>Nick Cave>Jack White>Frank Ocean>Disclosure.

I noticed on the earlier schedules that they used to sometimes have 3 shows in one late-night tent. So it is possible they could fit in even more than 16 ln acts.
Also Wiz closing the which wont happen I know... but they did have lumineers closing which before mumford last year. Also Wiz has a pretty big number of adds. Again, it won't happen, but for the sake of my mock being fun to look at it helps avoid the dreaded Phoenix or Arctic closing of the which on friday.
Good call on Lumineers/Mumsons. If they're willing to do that, they'll do anything.
I also like the idea of LN triple bills. That would open the possibility of booking acts that can't fill a 90-120 minute slot and might give more options for bouncing back and forth between tents.
