More names are likely to be added to the lineup. Since the lineup is so bad I'm guessing we already want to talk about additions. Within the realm of possibility, what are some acts you think are likely to be thrown in?

I wouldn't be surprised to see Rufus Wainwright since he's only got one date in June and has been showing up a lot lately with Billy Joel. That being said:
Rufus Wainright Damien Rice *Wishful thinking* Ryan Adams Lorde Rubblebucket Oh Honey The Rural Alberta Advantage The Felice Brothers Joe Pug
Primus, Duo De Twang, some form of Les Claypool Gov't Mule, Gov't Mule w/ John Scofield (Scofield is already on the lineup), Warren Haynes Band Jeff Tweedy (solo) or Tweedy (band) Tame Impala Weezer The String Cheese Incident Portugal. The Man Big Gigantic Father John Misty Reignwolf Alt-J
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.
There are no fun indie dance acts for me to get down to.
what?
You disagree? Bonnaroo usually has an Empire of the Sun, Cut Copy, Passion Pit, M83, LCD Soundsystem, Chromeo, Scissor Sisters, Animal Collective, or something like that on the lineup. The closest I can find on this lineup is Caribou and SBTRKT. And both of those are kind of tamer grooving.
But I do need to listen to Odesza more. They may be what I'm missing.
But given that half of Hot Chip will likely be there with Atomic Bomb!, and that Hot Chip is booked for Gov Ball 1 week earlier, it seems like a total miss not to have Hot Chip on the lineup.

Lorde, Alt-J, Modest Mouse, Noel Gallagher, The Decemberists Tame Impala, Ratatat, TV On the Radio, Father John Misty, DFA 1979, Magic Man, St. Lucia. Definitely won't be getting all of those, but any of them would be great additions.

It's always possible that Hot Chip will be added. Given what you've listed I strongly recommend you check out the three that you mentioned (Caribou, SBTRKT, ODESZA) all three of which I've seen put up crazy fun dance parties, as well as the following: Jamie xx, Tycho, MØ, and Jungle. There are many more on the lineup, those are just the four that I personally can't wait to seriously get down to.
edit. Basically just keep perusing the lineup. I'd put money down that you'll find several bands that'll satisfy that indie-dance urge to get down.

Roo should pull a Burning Man and let them get it going at 5:40am as the sun is coming up.

Tame Impala The Joy Formidable Snarky Puppy Rubblebucket
Definitely there is a lack of bigger named indie bands. The only band that would be considered a top band on SirusXMU or more conventional College radio would be MMJ and Spoon. If you want to go wayyyy back Belle and Sebastian. Though I think most people listening to indie college radio now have probably never heard of Belle and Sebastian. Really think they are missing another one or two bigger college radio bands. Someone like: St. Vincent Sleater Kinney Tame Impala Twin Shadow Decemberists TV on the Radio
They also need more punch filling out indie music in general: Future Islands FKA Twigs Parquet Courts Panda Bear Ariel Pink Sun Kil Moon Father John Misty King Krule
I will be very disappointed if at least three of the bands above aren't added. With the way the line up sits right now, it is very strong in EDM and Metal/Heavy Rock. It is solid in Hip Hop, top 40 commercial music, and the more traditional jammy/chill festival acts. It is very very weak in indie rock.
