At just a first quick glance, my two favorites are Jaz and Ken Bone. ZIG might be in 3rd, but I've have to take a closer look at everything again.
Jaz, I'm surprised you went so electronic heavy, but I fucking love it. Roger Waters, Aphex, Massive Attack is my kind of top 3. But then you have Panda Bear, Battles, !!!, Pantha du Prince, Warpaint, Richie Hawtin, Goat, Sunn O))), Shpongle, Ratatat, Royksopp, Puscifer, Hans Zimmer, Lane 8 etc.

Seriously, that fest has my name all over it.
Yea, over the past couple years my taste has been drifting more and more towards electronic, so I wanted to have a good reason to seek out new music. Plus I'm not as familiar with current mid tier alt acts so I'm not sure how well I'd have put together a decent lineup that was also balanced.

This is my thing. We all know enough to know what a good Bonnaroo looks like, and that is balance and diversity. I love Waters, Aphex and Massive Attack. They'd never be the top three at Bonnaroo in a million years. And not because "hur dur yeah cuz Roo sucks now. Sorry I didn't have the Chainsmokers headline", but because Roo is trying to sell 85K tickets. Roger would be a great number one that they'd love to have. The other two would be great second liners, but this lineup looks like Day for Night with Roger Waters up top. That's a wet dream as far as a festival, but this was supposed to have something to do with Bonnaroo.
I literally created an Excel sheet, and systematically voted based on various criteria (variety of genres, originality/placing of acts, level of trolling etc). I think Pepe Silvia and Jaz have really good lineups.
Are there gonna be any changes (i.e. addition of schedules/acts) after the first round, cdevaney ?

Ya, Pepe is definitely in my top 5 for sure, could be top 3.
I do love Motor City Drum Ensamble rather than Motor City Drum Ensemble, I just imagine a heavy Southern accent saying it.
And dammit, Maddog, but your poster makes me laugh way more than I should. I think you probably round out my top 5 at this point (Jaz, Ken Bone, Pepe, ZIG, Maddog).

It was suggested but there was not enough interest.

Did someone say they'd do a schedule for some of these? If anyone is up for it, I'd be very grateful, though I realize that might be asking a lot. If anyone is down, my late night shows would be the following...
Air, Empire of the Sun, Steely Dan, Thievery Corporation, Buckethead, Ty Segall, Umphrey's Mcgee, Rufus Du Sol, Goat, Black Coffee, Health, The Black Madonna and the hip hop superjam.
I think at some point after a couple rounds you guys should do schedules.
I've got mine on a spreadsheet. Basically just used it to make sure that scheduling the artists was "realistic," relatively speaking given the exercise.
The other problem with scheduling is that we only have between 58-64 acts booked right now so there are obviously some holes.
The poll closes in about forty-five minutes. I'll try to have round two up by three. (It should be significantly quicker to compile than the first round!)

I feel bad for the ten that are getting ready to get the axe (except sang_xcx of course). This whole process seems like it was exhausting. A shame to have a short run when it comes tourney time.
