Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
My suspicion is that we won't see too many special guests outside of the current lineup. If ticket sales are really as low as reported, if they actually had Jack White, Dolly or Dan Auberbach involved- they would be promoting the hell out of it.

For sure, its fun to speculate on wild and/or big names but we shouldn't get our hopes up. It's also exceedingly rare, if not unheard of, to have sit ins on Superjams from members of headlining acts.
So here is who is already in the Superjam from the lineup:
Kamasi Washington Miguel Griz Blood Orange (Devonte Hynes) Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats Eric Krasno & The Shady Horns (all from Lettuce) Allen Stone Vulfpeck The Internet Chicano Batman Lizzo
So who else from the lineup could potentially sit in?
Despite what I just said regarding headliners not usually sitting in, it wouldn't be totally unusual for someone from The Dead to sit in. Many have already mentioned Mayer or Bobby, but any of the other members are more likely: Mickey, Billy, O'Teil, Chimenti, especially if they do the one Dead tune everybody is expecting.
Drawing strictly from other Bonnaroo 2016 artists, without doing any research as to their schedules, other potential sit ins:
Anyone from Ween (could even potentially explain why they aren't playing LN Saturday) Isbell/Shires Chris Stapleton Random comedian MC (Pete Davidson comes to mind as someone who will be up anyway) Leon Bridges Grace Potter Charles Bradley Anybody in the Bluegrass tent on Sunday Cymande? London Souls? Con Brio? New Breed Brass Band

Jack white is rumoured and talked about as a possible secret super jam guest every year. And it will happen, because I'm not there. Pharrell too! They might as well have Daft Punk drop in from the ceiling

I'm here now and so far, for me, this is totally off mark. It's only my 4th SuperJam, but they are normally fun sing alongs. This is a snoozefest. Headed over to Big Grams for some dancing fun and it was packed. I came back for fear of missing something special. But.... It's pretty bad when the fireworks that could only partially be seen got the crowd going more than what's happening on stage

first couple of songs were mildly interesting, then Allen Stone came out for an excruciatingly lengthy rendition of "The Thrill Is Gone". That performance will go down as my second worst Bonnaroo memory ever, beaten only by the time in 2004 when my car got stuck in the mud in the pouring down rain while trying to leave Sunday night.
then when the guy from Third Eye Blind came out and did Ring of Fire. OK I shit you not, when i was in college we took a roadtrip to see our friend in Savannah. Day drank Jim Beam for several hours then we went to this karaoke bar and I did double jagermeister shots all night long. I was like some kind of miracle alcoholic android that night, the bartenders would all gather around every time I would order a budweiser and a double jagermeister shot and watch me take the shot down. later that night me and my comrades walked some crying stranger girl we found in the street back to her hotel, and then the hotel people didn't take to kindly to us so we stole this big pewter bowl of candy they had and ran away, then we threw the pewter bowl at some building and set off an alarm so we ran away from there too, ended up getting a room at the Thunderbird Inn because I was "tired of sleeping on the floor at fucking so-and-so's house this is bullshit i'm sleeping in a fucking bed", but when we checked into the inn at like 5am we just started screaming and throwing mattresses around before passing out, and I know we passed out but I also know there was a pounding at the door and we got kicked out. i don't remember exactly the order of events at the Thunderbird Inn.
backing up at that karaoke bar after the double jager shots I did "Ring of Fire" and straight killed that shit. Dude from Third Eye Blind was awful.
i left after that. maybe after i left justin timberlake came out and did "Dick In A Box" and I would hate to have missed that, but the first hour of the Superjam did not convince me to stick around.
