Hint #1
"IT BEGINS! - Here's a little vignette for you. #HiveHints"
Hozier has a song called "Jackie and Wilson" which could refer to the two people in the house. The lyrics include "I start digging up the yard of what's left of me and our little vignette".
"We can't stop giggling about the image for this one. It's a bad habit."
The Offspring have an album called "Bad Habit". They also have a popular song called "The Kids Aren't Alright" which is pretty accurate for Andy and Ollie from Bob's Burgers
The Offspring were actually really good at Riot in September. I was pretty much rail, up there with the worst concert experiences for me ever, but the show was great. There was a solid minute where my feet weren't on the ground. I was still standing only because of how packed in we were. That plus the mosh pit behind me and the CONSTANT crowd surfers- even at inappropriate times. And it was cold and raining, ugh. Awful. I ha a blast though. I'd def do it again.

Sounds wild. I don't think you will have those crowd issues at Bunbury, I haven't had trouble getting close to any act I went to see. That's probably a reason there are new owners, so that might change. I'm so curious about this lineup just because of the new ownership, I have no idea what to expect.
I have no guesses of my own, but stealing from FB:
Tin Man's Heart Avett Brothers Head & the Heart Steel Heart The 1975
I think Avett Brothers would be a good guess. I also thought of Steel Pulse, but I'm not sure if that's really Bunbuty's style and I don't even know if they're still touring.

The Head & the Heart
The Tin Man needs a heart and the quote that they used "Beehive, bah! Let her try and make a beehive out of me!" is said by the Scarecrow who needs a brain(head).
EDIT: Nevermind, it was the tin man who said that quote, I got it mixed up.
What happens if my tee shot lands on a bird's back and he carries it out of bounds but then is attacked by a larger bird who grabs the ball and drops it in the hole? Is that still a hole in one? 'Cause that's how I'm gonna play it.
I'd say it makes them less likely, but I wouldn't say it rules them out. Toronto really isn't that far from Cincinnati. Either way, I could see all three at Bonnaroo, so I'm fine with less crossover at Bunbury. I'll just be happy if they can finally produce a decent lineup for my tastes, considering how close I am to Cincinnati.
This will be the year they finally put out a decent lineup. I have no doubt it will happen because there is no way I can attend even a single day and that is how life works. I would love to be able to drive an hour instead of hours for a festival, but to say the lineups for Bunbury have been bad in past years is a severe understatement. I would say MPMF lineup has been much better than Bunbury the past few years, and they should not even be comparable.

I can MAYBE swing Friday or Sunday, but will only make the effort if the single day lineups are rock solid. And last years MPMF lineup was amazing.
Clue #4. I'm already bored of with these. People are saying Imagine Dragons, don't know why.
No clue why Imagine Dragons or any of the guesses on FB. But honestly, I don't get why people are hating on the hints so much. So many fests do this and they're going to release the line up when they release it anyways. Why complain about the hints. Jeez.
This wasn't directed at you, mostly just venting about the bagillion complaints I just read on FB.

I'm not arguing that last year wasn't a great year for MPMF, the opposite actually. My argument is Bunbury and MPMF really should not have a comparable lineup... at all..
They are totally different set ups and I do get that, but I think you would agree Bunbury is staged on a much, much larger scale than MPMF. I just don't feel like a "true" 3 day festival's lineup should be comparable to what is USUALLY (Last few years they did step it up a bit) really just a glorified weekend of bands that are slightly more recognizable than the usual bands playing in the same bars scattered about town, coupled with 3-4 shows in the park. IMO Bunbury's lineup SHOULD blow that away every single time. The past two years, for me anyway, that was not even close to the case.

To be fair, the past few years Bunbury has only been about $60 more expensive than MPMF, and has had significantly better infrastructure and bigger lineups. You might not think they are better, but Flaming Lips, Fall Out Boy, Paramore, and Empire of the Sun are significantly bigger than Chromeo, Afghan Whigs, Ok Go, and Tycho. The difference between the lineups becomes even more evident as you go down the bill.

It literally doesn't matter what they post on facebook, people always complain. The thing about Bunbury is that the first year the lineup appealed to an older crowd, so now every year you have a bunch of annoying 50yr olds complaining because they want a lineup of Jane's Addiction and Weezer.

Hehe. That's who I saw at Riot Fest last year.
Well, I skipped Janes Addiction to see Rise Against. And I left Weezer to see the end of The Cure. But you get my point.

Nothing wrong with those bands, but Bunbury clearly moved on, time for those people to do the same instead of bashing the festival on every post.
That's surprisingly late. I remember they've always done lineup drops right around the same time as Bonnaroo, so the second weekend in February. I bet it's mainly because Promowest Live might have come in a bit late in the game and had to play catch up.
Theres a chance I get either a Friday day pass or a Sunday day pass. That Saturday the Reds are doing a Larkin bobblehead give-away. My dad is a big collector, has over 5K worth. His are mostly Cincinnati themed too.
That's also mine and the girls anniversary weekend. Hmm.

I love Bobblehead nights! And now I'm upset I'll miss Barry Larkin's this year. I'm pretty excited for that Nasty Boys one, though.

That will be a good one. Dad will end up buying that on eBay. He usually gets all of the Reds promo bobbleheads unless he already has that player. I love to know how much his collection is really worth. He has talked about trying to sell them but he couldn't go through with it.
If you want make a few bucks, take somebody with you to the game in which they're giving away the Nasty Boys. I know you would give a good price for an inforoo buddy!

PromoWest Live just booked The Replacements to play their venues In Pittsburgh and Columbus in early May and the band has Bunbury weekend off. They do look more likely to stay in Europe for the summer, but they'd get me to the waterfront for sure.
