How does Lana announcing a Nashville date next month impact her Bonnaroo chances? I'd assume negatively, but it will have been several months in the rearview by the time the lineup drops

I’d say it slightly hurts her chances, but mostly means nothing.

I know they get ragged on a bit here but I saw Twenty One Pilots last night for the first show of the new leg of their bandito tour and I have to say it was the best concert i’ve ever been to. I’ve seen them a handful of times and while they’ve always been great, they’ve got such a tight set now and have some fantastic production. As corny as it sounds, it truly felt like a celebration of life and i’d urge any of you who have enjoyed/been curious about any of their music to catch a show near you or at least give them a shot if they end up being a roo headliner (even though i doubt they will).
This is an understatement: I love the Arcade Fire.
I found out about the band through a friend 3 months before Neon Bible. I got Funeral and it immediately struck a chord with me...then it was Neon Bible (over and over again, just like Funeral), then it was the EP, and now its Live Recordings.
I saw them live on June 2 at the Greek Theater in Berkeley. Through the dense clouds of pot smoke, behind the glowing pillars of light, and basking in the neon light of an ominous turning bible, my stoned eyes glimpsed upon music incarnate. All which is good and pure in music was present that night. We danced, head banged, sung, moved any way possible in our tiny excuses for personal space in a sold out crowd - and all of it, everyone, intoxicated. You see, Arcade Fire is not so much music as it is a cerebral phenomenon, a drug in itself, a moment of transcendence that lasts two hours. You have not really begun to experience this band until you see them live.
Before the Arcade Fire, I was a mess of hormones and teenage angst. Beginning with the first mysterious piano notes of "Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)" to the last resounding organ chord of "My Body is a Cage", the music was a spark of hope which warmed my wayward soul ("Wake Up" holds particular significance). It made me, a once devout practicing Catholic who grew up in a conservative family in a conservative neighborhood, question God.
Which is why Neon Bible is hardly just an album. It's the founding of a new religion, one whose creed is non believing - non believers of hypocritical Western religions, non participants in the reckless commercialism which as shaped the culture and future of a nation. When you are touched by a band or by music with a message as pure and as strong as Arcade Fire's, its not hard to imagine a world without God because all the tools for redemption, salvation, and happiness are all already within ourselves.
I am 16 years old. While all of this may seem like self-righteous indiekid bullshit, all I have to say is this:
Do you remember when music had the power to change people?

You found out about Arcade Fire in 2006/7, when you were an angsty three-year old teenager?
I know South America is a different animal, but VW are billed #8 on their Lolla lineups. I don’t think penciling them in as the top-billed non-headliner is as much of a slam dunk as you guys seem to.

Also The Lumineers are #11, while it seemed like they were billed in the 2-5 range most fests this year.

It would stand to reason this makes Vampire Weekend a full headliner, given the current Lolla SA > Bonnaroo conversion rate.
Metallica announced five headlining festival dates where they are playing two nights. Dates do not exclude Bonnaroo. Metallica would be ok but not two nights.
P.S. I don't keep up with all of this thread, so this may have been discussed already.

They're saying these will be their only U.S. festivals in 2020

Gotcha. Brooklynvegan added an "at least 5" in their headline on Facebook. Had me worried.

This is how I felt about Launchpad McQuack when I first started reading his posts on here. RIP
