Is there a reason they're not telling us what day Charles Bradley is on? I'd love to see him on Sunday or Saturday; Friday is already at capacity
I was messing around making mock schedules and I'm pretty sure he will be Sunday. It was hard to fill up the Sunday stages with the acts listed, I'd say he will be Sunday and at least one more TBA artist for the main stages. Unless everyone (besides That Bluegrass Tent) gets sets that are over an hour long.

Sunday would be a great day for Charles Bradley.
Hope he is available for the Superjam on Saturday though. Couple years ago he came out with Gov't Mule in New Orleans and did "It's A Man's World" and it was the best part of the whole goddamn show.
Silent Disco announcement on Twitter this morning...
Lane 8!
Very nice addition, imo. He's solid. Sweet, sweet deep house goodness. It's too bad he'll probably be on during Pearl Jam, if I know Bonnaroo's silent disco booking SOP.
Bonnaroo needs more stuff like this. After the Okeechobee techno jungle, I need it in my life.
Besides that, it's all the same people we seem to get every year:
Someone mentioned already that Roar, Stokeswood, and Walden aren't on the By Day lineup. When I started to add all of the cafe acts to my mock, I realized that Walden is now gone altogether. There's also now a band called Quaildogs in the lineup.
Roar, Stokeswood, and Quaildogs all have "TBD" listed on their bios.

I'm honestly surprised that they have not yet removed the 'And More Artists To Be Announced' part of the lineup already. I have zero expectations of any noteworthy adds. I don't think that they recognize that their lineup is underwhelming (and if they do, I don't think that they care).

I don't think they've announced the Road to Bonnaroo or Sonicbids Cafe Stage winners yet. It's not really noteworthy, but it lets them keep the "And More Artists to be Announced" tag up and be honest. That said, I still think we have one more main lineup act announcement (whether that's one guy or a group of adds, I don't know). With Coachella this weekend, the festival season has started and they're going to need at least one thing a week to announce to stay in the news. The schedule will get them one, I suspect a Kalliope announcement as another, and the Road to Roo/Sonicbids adds, but that still leaves them some time between now and June 9 to fill up.
There have been big additions announced as late as mid May. (Though sometimes corresponding to a cancellation) I remember Umphreys coming out of nowhere one year so there's still the possibility of a add that will have us squirming in our britches if you will.
Not that this is the big add anyone was seeking, but jazz parades will (predictably) be back this year. I noticed this morning that New Breed Brass Band was stealth-added to the website lineup. (Same guys who led the parades last year.)

Admittedly, I do love a good second line.
Yeah they made a bigger deal about the parades last year, actually putting them on the schedule and making an email announcement. I like new breed brass band. This is turning into a really horn heavy lineup.

It's probably because we don't know the Superjam guests tbqh
Part of me still thinks there's going to be one big late night act added. Only 12 acts. Last year had 13 and the year before had 16 I believe. I also can't see who is going to be playing on Which besides Tame Impala. I don't think they would leave it empty one night. Unless they're going to finally smarten up and move the Superjam to Which.

I'd love that but I don't have any hope it will happen.
