After looking at it for the past day, here's mine as of this moment. I'm sure it'll probably change by June.
Thursday: Rudimental --> chill/explore --> MS MR --> Cloud Nothings --> Polica --> Pusha T --> Ty Segall
Friday: Dr. Dog --> Danny Brown --> nap/wander/drink --> Vampire Weekend -->(possibly some of Phoenix, depending on my state of mind and current spot at What) --> Kanye --> Mastodon/Disclosure --> Deafheaven --> Die Antwoord --> Skrillex/Chance/Meshuggah
Satuday: Classixx (if I'm in Centeroo that early) --> Cake --> Damon Albarn --> Chromeo --> Lionel --> Jack --> Skrillex SJ --> Flaming Lips/Frank --> Zedd/Kaskade/Darkside
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.
If you haven’t heard “Paper Trails” before, carve out the next 10 minutes of your day to watch Darkside’s RA Session take. Hopefully it’s morning; you’re drinking coffee while last night’s whiskey presses into your forehead. Now watch the video. Nicolas Jaar and Dave Harrington stand backlit in a cold room, Harrington with his guitar and Jaar with an array of synthesizers. As Jaar works up the song’s textures, Harrington slowly noodles at a blues riff. As they play, Harrington serves as the ballast preventing Nico Jaar’s airy production from drifting to the stratosphere. Jaar’s vocals drip with angst. “Where are you when I need you, where should I go?” he sings. When Jaar’s laments end, the duo focus more intently on their instruments. At the 5-minute mark, the song begins to coil, the synth-bass winding itself tighter and tighter, before finally dropping its weight and drifting off in to the jet stream.
I'm assuming you wrote this, and bravo. That's amazing and hilarious all at once.
Actually wait, the schedule sucks because of that terrible slot for Disclosure! There's no way we can make it from Kanye to Disclosure! Oh well I guess we all have to #BoycottDisclosure and not go to that set, ok everyone? Definitely not going to that set because it will be too packed! What's the point? Ice Cube will be fun, let's make all our friends go there instead #BoycottDisclosure
not to mention the LN Other Tent Bees. #BoycottDisclosure

When Nicolas Jaar and Dave Harrington released the three-track self-titled EP in 2011 as Darkside, it was one of those things where I heard it, really liked it, but hardly thought about it again for a while. They had a very interesting formula of smoky electronica bolstered by Jaar’s production skills and the wispy guitar lines of Harrington over the top, coloring it as a unique project, but for whatever reason it didn’t fully grab me. Later, Psychic came along, which was one of those things where I heard it, absolutely loved it, and hardly stopped thinking about it until the day I sit writing this. The jump from “oh that’s nice” to “nothing this good can even be real” was stunning; Jaar and Harrington are suddenly, together, at the forefront of electronic music with one swift, obsessively orchestrated wave of the hand.
I say “obsessively orchestrated” because that’s truly what it feels like when you listen to Psychic. True, it feels effortless, like the wave of a hand, but the depth of the texturing of standout tracks “Golden Arrow” and “Heart” is remarkable, slowly revealing itself as both the song flows on and listens stack up. Watching Darkside manipulate a somewhat stoic crowd at Mountain Oasis into uncontrollable fits of dancing with “Paper Trails” was one of the most memorable moments of music for me this year. Jaar piled and piled textural layers on top of one another, only to drop them out to a bare rhythmic thump, all while Harrington’s pizzicato guitar lines careened off the wall of sound, and in that moment I became forever indebted to the duo of humans making those sounds and the LP that embalmed them for my eternal enjoyment. Since arriving home from the festival, a day will only go by without listening to Psychic if I forced myself to listen to something else.

Can someone tuck me in?

Darkside/Zedd/Kaskade is obviously a tough choice for the EDM-heads
Have you ever listened to Darkside?
Pipe down jimmyroo, it's a dj and a guitar player. Just because it isn't crazy wubwub beats doesn't mean it isn't EDM. And of the three, I'd probably be at Darkside

:I just don't see Lauryn Hill going against Lionel Richie, Disclosure in The other Tent, or Rudimental at 3:30 on Thursday. This makes me think Bonnaroo just threw this out there to get reactions...

i expect a few subtle changes here and there, but yeah, this really does have the feel of a typical bonnaroo schedule.
Tho, theres doesn't seem to be a SBTRKT/Four Tet'ish type afternoon fuck ups. or maybe i'm just unaware of it.
CHROMEO!!!
Nah, Chromeo has had late night sets the last two times they've been at Bonnaroo and they have a badass near sunset spot on the Which stage. Chromeo>Cut/Copy is an incredible three hour dance party.

You would do well to look at the 2010 schedule, as it is the year most comparable to this in lineup structure, and now, schedule.

I personally can't wait to see the late night announcement. Because it will either validate our assumed schedule or dash every expectation we've made since Monday afternoon.

Yeah, I know, I was there in '09...and had a blast! I just want a repeat, minus Daryl Hall...
But, we don't know what the final schedule will be. And big, bold font doesn't change that. Bonnaroo could rearrange 2 things or 20 before they release it officially (or even after).
