OK, so I have no idea what's up with these 30 minute sets or the fact that some sets have zero minute breaks in between them on the same stage, but, Imma try to do my run-through with how it's laid out rn (and hope y'all might fix these logistical issues later tho):
Thurs: don't have anything til 9pm--recs? Then LCD Ladies--> Wolf Alice--> The Districts
Fri: San Fermin--> ?--> Bladee (if only to say hi to tЯist♡n)--> AG Cook--> Kimbra--> Daphni--> LCD--> Dillion Francis maybe
Sat: Dan Deacon--> Smallpools--> Clairo--> ehhh?--> Flips/Peggy (why this conflict? also, Wilco is the sleepiest LN Which ever--maybe put Flips there instead and Wilco daytime somewhere?)--> so you're forcing me to go see 2021 Kanye??--> oooof...Rezz or maybe just early bedtime tbh
Sun: not sure in earlier part of day--> Neon Indian--> Miley--> Andrew Bird--> Zhu--> Elton
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.
Blue DeTiger, Pinkcaravan, Bea Miller, Eli Fola, Jay Wood, and loose loose are all up and coming have seen significant growth in the last year. Neither Slack nor I have been to Roo so at the very least I didn't know it was entirely up and coming.
- make set times of the Other shorter and leave 15 min overlap, idk feels weird seeing them all b2b like that? Maybe that was a deliberate choice idk.
- The Hotelier, The Districts and Wolf Alice, I'd put them somewhere else. They're not Thursday-bands. - why does San Fermin only get 30 mins? - the whole Bladee til AG Cook run doesn't sit right, scatter them out - how is there between 6 and 10 only one hour of music on the What on Friday? - There's probably a reason why Virgil Abloh and Noah Cyrus are closing down the Which but I don't get it - feel like Janet should be the one being unopposed so you can schedule out your night program better but now with LCD unopposed, there's basically only them, PHJB and the SJ happening as LN shows?
- saturday LN-schedule, same critique; there's 3 bands playing LN and the Other is closed of for 3,5 hours (?) ~ why is PHJB even on the Which in the first place? - Clairo doesn't even have enough songs to fill 1,5h slot? - Washed Out would work better in a tent, preferrably even LN - Dan Deacon on the What?? - Flaming Lips deserve a longer set - Sub Focus would probably be one of the biggest names on the Other that day unless I'm mistaking him for someone else and you didn't make a typo there - Vegyn on the Which??
- what's the purpose of the Andrew Bird-Billy Idol thing with the What completely silent in between like Friday? - Bastille would play Which/What - Would switch Slushii on another day closing of the Other since he's one of the bigger names you have on your entire Other-rooster
Schedule wise a complete mess but with some changes I can see some Bonnaroo in there for sure.

I mean there's some really dope names in there but they just get burried by how the scheduling is done in here (I know you tried your best tho actually @fortyfive33 now but idk)

We never got a Bingaling Breakdown of our schedule. Guess we did alright.

- The Hotelier, The Districts and Wolf Alice, I'd put them somewhere else. They're not Thursday-bands. - why does San Fermin only get 30 mins? We'll change this, I didn't know thursday was up and coming - the whole Bladee til AG Cook run doesn't sit right, scatter them out They're niche acts at this point and I wanted to leverage the cool hyper pop to drive single day tix. Also wanted to have them on Kanye's day because I remember reading that KTT loves that kinda stuff - how is there between 6 and 10 only one hour of music on the What on Friday? Idk - There's probably a reason why Virgil Abloh and Noah Cyrus are closing down the Which but I don't get it Idk - feel like Janet should be the one being unopposed so you can schedule out your night program better but now with LCD unopposed, there's basically only them, PHJB and the SJ happening as LN shows? LCD took a demotion, I wanted to give them the unopposed time slot
- saturday LN-schedule, same critique; there's 3 bands playing LN and the Other is closed of for 3,5 hours (?) ~ why is PHJB even on the Which in the first place? Other is closed for unopposed LCD - Clairo doesn't even have enough songs to fill 1,5h slot? Probably an accident - Washed Out would work better in a tent, preferrably even LN We talked about this but struggled to make it work - Dan Deacon on the What?? Where do you suggest we put him? I thought he would do fine opening it up - Flaming Lips deserve a longer set When I saw their headline show it was barely over an hour iirc - Sub Focus would probably be one of the biggest names on the Other that day unless I'm mistaking him for someone else and you didn't make a typo there Not a typo, I took a random name off of EDC's lineup which is alphabetical so I couldn't tell where they would be booked - Vegyn on the Which?? We had too many good late night options and he fell into a spot that I wasn't thrilled about either
- what's the purpose of the Andrew Bird-Billy Idol thing with the What completely silent in between like Friday? - Bastille would play Which/What We can try to figure it out - Would switch Slushii on another day closing of the Other since he's one of the bigger names you have on your entire Other-rooster Fair

I'll try to defend some stuff to the best of my ability but slack made the clashfinder so I can't speak for all timing issues.
Also I need to get back to work. Meet Me in the Bathroom Superjam is hosted by The Lemon Twigs and features members of The Strokes, LCD Soundsystem, and many more... Dead Petz Superjam is Miley and FLips playing that entire album
KPO re: the Dan Deacon thing--if you've ever been to one of his shows, you'd know why the What doesn't make sense for him, but if you haven't then it is understandable why you made the whoopsie.
Dan has really interactive shows where he likes to call on audience participation and create dance circles with everyone, etc. He needs a tent.

- would've put The Muppets sunday afternoon around 2 pm tbh and dunno why you'd put the GOO on the Which. - Calpurnia has to be on fri-sat-sun sched just on the sheer name recognition Finn Wolfhard has - would move Ho99o9 aswell, but I'm nitpicking cause they're the biggest name on your sched that day - Tei Shi doesn't reallyyy feel right for Roo but it's also so out there that it does (+ small name) so
- Let Ella Mai close of the Which, put Noel in her spot and put Herbie in a tent. I don't think he's that big to close of Which - Japenese Breakfast sadly gets wasted because of the conflict with D'Angel but okay - Why is the Other closed for 3,5 hours? Switch Mija and Shade (tbf idk him but..)
- scheduling wise, saturday is great and wouldn't change a thing tho it's still hard to believe Lil Dicky is that big
- Greta Van Fleet is a sub, yes they are. - Mac DeMarco going from closing of the tent to second down Which feels like an unwarranted bump - Duke Dumont should close of the Other, he's bigger
The thing I've always wondered is why you didn't opt for a hypnagocic SJ with Ariel Pink and John Maus in your line up with more lo-fi bands like CSH, Mac etc. I thought you guys were totally onto something and then you choose for the Holy Spirit SJ which I didn't quiet saw coming but idk.

Dan offered me to be his TM last year. We kindly request a late night tent slot please.

- would've put The Muppets sunday afternoon around 2 pm tbh and dunno why you'd put the GOO on the Which. The Muppets are essentially the Thursday headliner.
- Calpurnia has to be on fri-sat-sun sched just on the sheer name recognition Finn Wolfhard has - would move Ho99o9 aswell, but I'm nitpicking cause they're the biggest name on your sched that day - Tei Shi doesn't reallyyy feel right for Roo but it's also so out there that it does (+ small name) so I think these are fine.
- Let Ella Mai close of the Which, put Noel in her spot and put Herbie in a tent. I don't think he's that big to close of Which D'Angelo > Hebie on Which > Kendrick is what we had in mind from the beginning. It's a perfect run in my opinion.
- Japenese Breakfast sadly gets wasted because of the conflict with D'Angel but okay We could try to find another slot for her
- Why is the Other closed for 3,5 hours? Switch Mija and Shade (tbf idk him but..) Shades is Eprom b2b Alix Perez. It's one of the biggest gets in bass music right now. That day progresses into more wook stuff as it goes. The reason for the gap is that we didn't want to program anything in that world during Pretty Lights.
- scheduling wise, saturday is great and wouldn't change a thing tho it's still hard to believe Lil Dicky is that big Lil Dicky is a star now. Just look at all the guest appearances on his TV show.
- Greta Van Fleet is a sub, yes they are. I think they are a sub at Shaky Knees, but third to close on the main stage at Bonnaroo is fine for them. They have a third of the spotify plays as Portugal. The Man. Kanye compared them to The 1975 who are billed 4th on their day at Bonnaroo 2020.
- Mac DeMarco going from closing of the tent to second down Which feels like an unwarranted bump Mac was actually underbilled that year at Bonnaroo. He's $100,000 booking. In Miami, he sells 2500-3000 tix.
- Duke Dumont should close of the Other, he's bigger Probably but I think Petit Biscuit has more zoomer recognition. Also prefer the progression of starting with burning man stuff into Amtrac into Duke into Petit Biscuit.
The thing I've always wondered is why you didn't opt for a hypnagocic SJ with Ariel Pink and John Maus in your line up with more lo-fi bands like CSH, Mac etc. I thought you guys were totally onto something and then you choose for the Holy Spirit SJ which I didn't quiet saw coming but idk. We traded Ariel Pink. The Holy Spirit Superjam fit our Team Jesus theme and was something that worked perfectly with Al Green. Our lineup has a very soulful personality, more than past Bonnaroos, as we wanted to highlight and celebrate the history of black music. Also wanted to take advantage of Kendrick on our lineup and allow him to do a spoken word performance of his more intellectual and less popular songs.
