Are people really expecting Conan to do a reveal where he talks about an incomplete fake leak that went out to try and dupe people into thinking that Bonnaroo missed Beck and Hot Chip again, only to reveal the opposite?
Is that what is being suggested?
No.
They're suggesting that the leak was intentional and Roo left some names off of it intentionally. Nobody thinks Conan will mention the leak

Is that what is being suggested?
No. Its pretty simple. People are hoping that, instead of only three names, they left all of the "classified gets" off the app, for the same reason they left the three we know off.

Realists know that they only left the top 3 out of the leak. The list includes the semi-confirmed 4-6 names.
The only hope we have is that they went heavy on strong lineup additions, but we all know there will only be one or two good ones at most.
As much as I think they missed and could add that's just getting your hopes up to get shut down. There's good stuff here. And they might get 2 or 3 more good acts for the second wave. But this is it. I'm crazy disappointed. Headliners are there and there are other acts I def wanna see. But.... Eesh. I'm not miserable but this is ver bland.
The only hope I have that this leak is fake is that it does't make much sense to me that the headliners are left off. Also this probably sounds ridiculous but why do the little roo symbols to the left of the artists names look so low res in comparison to everything else. Like they're some sort of low res screenshot from the site.

If that were even feasible, is there anything to suggest that those names would the ones people are pining over? Given the rest of this lineup it would likely be along the lines of Machine Gun Kelly and Hoodie Allen.
I honestly doubt the Bonnaroo app developers are trolling us, but it stands to reason that if the headliners weren't added to this list, the list is incomplete. 100% Wishful thinking, but just maybe there are a couple artists besides the headliners who aren't on this list, to make the lineup just a little bit less crap.

Don't forget the boys of Poison tearing it all down Sunday night.

A Poison set actually sounds fun compared to this lineup. Rather have Poison than Third Eye fucking Blind.
What happened to the Pretty Lights / Future / Lumineers / Lana rumors? All complete BS?
pretty lights will probably be our #4. it would be very un-bonnaroo to not book pretty lights or skrillex or deadmau5 or bassnectar.
If the Mysteryland leaked lineup is actually correct (which we will find out soon), it actually won't happen. They have Skrillex and Pretty Lights on the leak, and Roo had Mau5 and Bassnectar last year.

Jesus Christ. The initial perception has been worse this year compared to the last few...yet it's easily the best set of headliners we have had since 2012. To see all three of those bands this summer would cost you around $300 after tax/fees.
They missed on hip-hop and electronic, you can't argue that. Some solid undercard acts though in other genres: (Tame Impala, M83, Farther John Misty, Death Cab for Cutie, Jason Isbell, Fidlar, Lettuce, Ween, Kamasi Washington). It all comes down to the schedule for me. Would love to see Fidlar on Thursday...as of now there are not many bands who have a possibility to play Thursday that I am interested in.

That leak is for 3 days and last year was only 2 days. I'd think Mysteryland would have announced the 3rd day by now if they were expanding? Who knows though.
I might do a one day ticket if LCD doesn't come to my state, but I think this year I'm hitting up Shakey Knees and/or Psych Fest.
I really hope they get their shit together next year
interestingly enough, for around the price of 1 bonnaroo ticket you could attend both Shakey Knees and Shakey Beats. Shakey Beats isn't the greatest lineup but it's got more interesting EDM than roo this year.
damn now i'm actually considering doing this. or maybe just shakey knees + hangout, since hangout isn't far from my house.
The comments on some of the blogs and Twitter are ripping Bonnaroo apart. Maybe they'll realize they dropped the ball and try to get something added, doubtful though.

I'm not sure how strong a festival choice he is, but I am a huge fan of John Moreland. Throw him on late at night and let him sing me to sleep with 3:59am and nirvana (not the band) will be mine.

And unfortunately half of those acts will conflict.
I went through all of the artists I don't know on the lineup, and the common theme of this year's undercard seems to be unknown bands who have millions of plays on Youtube, or crappy folk/rock/Americana bands.
People like Post Malone, Circa Waves, Lany, Whik and Misky, Saint Motel, Marian Hill - it really seems like they're banking on the under 21 crowd to give two shits about these kind of acts and show up this year.

Yeah the people who are loving this are ruining any hope that our misery would have any effect on Roo scrambling to add a few more acts. But think about how unlikely that was in the first place.

It's almost like new partner Live Nation has a vested interest in promoting their up and coming artists.
I actually think Post Malone is a decent grab. Whilk and Misky, on the other hand, is the second dumbest name on the lineup (behind GOAT terrible name Popadosio).

I would like to believe the troll theory, but I don't see that being the case. I'm at about 10 bands I would see and about 3 I would book if this were my fest. My only hope is that everyone is wrong and LCD is not a headliner. Blasphemy around here I know, but just not a fan.
If they dropped one BOMBSHELL mystery headliner would it change anyone's mind? Even if they got one of the 3-4 acts that are most desired but are always unrealistic. I won't even bother to mention names but there isn't a single artist in the world (alive) that would change my mind on this lineup.
