Your mock made me sad. It exemplifies how bad the lineup is. I'm saying this as someone who is going.
I was able to make a pretty decent daily schedule from the mock...
Fri Leon -> Illenium -> Coin -> Royal Blood -> The Head and the Heart -> Tegan & Sara -> U2 -> Superjam -> Glass Animals
Sat Badbadnotgood -> Strumbellas -> Milky Chance -> The xx -> Cage The Elephant -> The Weeknd -> Future Islands -> Crystal Castles
Sun Ten Fe -> EDEN -> Kaleo -> Cold War Kids -> Lorde -> Bluegrass SJ -> RHCP
Using my mock that's 24 full sets for the weekend, higher than what I normally see. I'm sure after I research the lineup I'll and up seeing more partial sets though.

However, Thursday...that's just a tire fire.
I was also able to find a whole weekend of good music, but usually with mocks I'm stricken with conflicts. I think I had one on this one.

Being able to contain the EDM and YouTube hip-hop to Other is huge, hopefully Roo follows this example.
Looks like there's room for 2 more tent additions.
The Other Tent on Sunday would be torture. Like it amazes me that it's actually possible for Bonnaroo to have artists that terrible all play back to back.

I tried the Coachella model and sticking all the terrible hip hop/trap and cheese EDM on its own dedicated tent/stage, similar to the Sahara at Coachella. Its a win-win for everyone...the molly munchers can camp all day and everyone is spared having to sit through any of these sets at other stages.
Overall pretty nice mock for me, except there would be almost nothing for me Thursday. Maybe White Reaper > Haywyre. Biggest conflict would be Car Seat Headrest and The Head and the Heart, so I'm hoping CSH play Thursday. If not maybe BadBadNotgood or Flatbush Zombies get a Thursday slot, I think they would benefit from a nighttime show.
Friday would be solid, Lemon twigs>RKS>HatH>bit of Chance> bit of Tegan & Sara>U2>Glass animals. Saturday all day at Which>Weeknd>Crystal Castles, would also kind of hope XX got either flume or major lazers spot. Sunday would be kind of weak, Flatbush>CWK>Ed helms>RHCP
Thurs: Klangstof>White Reaper>Big Jesus>July Talk Fri: Preservation Hall Jazz Band>(Split) Margo Price/Front Bottoms>Royal Blood>Chance>Tegan & Sara>U2>Big Gigantic>Marshmello Sat:(Split) Badbadnotgood/Deap Vally/Mondo Cozmo>(Partial) Milky Chance>(Partial) Snails>(Partial) PTM>The XX>Cage>BREAK>Major Lazer>Umprey's Sun: Flatbush Zombies>Cold War Kids>Bluegrass Superjam>Red Hot Chili Peppers
This would be pretty good for me, a little better than the last several years' lineups. Thursday would be light for me...Friday a great day...Sat decent and then Sunday pretty light.

if the schedule is anything like this mock it would be terrible for me; you managed to create a ton of conflicts out of the relatively small number of acts i'd want to see
for what it's worth I think Lemon Twigs and Noname are locks for Thursday, they're the kind of on-the-rise acts that get booked nighttime Thursday slots
just a friendly reminder, per inforoo common law, everytime you make a mock for the 2017 lineup, you must immediately follow it with a negative comment, such as:
-"Making this mock really re-emphasized how bad this lineup is" -"RIP Bonnaroo" -"Making this mock made me realize this year is one of the most insanely idiotic things Bonnaroo has ever done. At no point during the rambling, incoherent lineup was Bonnaroo even close to anything that could be considered a rational curation. Everyone on this forum is now dumber for having discussed it. I award Bonnaroo no points, and may God have mercy on its soul." -"Ugh", "blech", etc.

Just about a perfect schedule, only thing is there is no way in hell Flume's crowd will be squeezed into a tent again and that Glass Animals and Chance overlap would be a tough deal for me atleast
Thurs: Big Jesus -> Rainbow Kitten Surprise -> Mondo Cozmo/Rezz -> Dua Lipa Fri: Stick Figure -> Tegan & Sara -> COIN -> The Head & The Heart -> Tove Lo -> The xx -> U2 -> Crystal Castles -> Superjam Sat: The Strumbellas -> Kaleo -> July Talk -> Future Islands -> Glass Animals -> Cage The Elephant -> The Weeknd -> Flume Sun: EDEN -> Royal Blood -> Cold War Kids -> Milky Chance -> Lorde -> Bluegrass SJ -> RHCP
I'd be seeing 26 artists which would be my most since 2011, this is only possible under perfect weather conditions (82 and sunny).
in all seriousness, good mock. i looked over it and i wouldn't have any trouble having a great time if i were attending this year. however, there are lots of acts i am not familiar with.

Some thoughts on the latest mock: 1) There's a lot of overlap with the Weeknd and RHCP. I don't know if that will be the case. Maybe more like thirty to forty-five minutes overlap for either. 2) I don't think we'll have acts going until 4 AM, unfortunately. Probably 3 AM at the latest, like last year. 3) 7 to 11 on Saturday would be brutal. Future Islands, Khruangbin, Glass Animals, Chance, Pres Hall, Anjelique Kidjo.. Yikes on bikes.
