I think they decided to list it as TBD instead of Superjam... because last year it wasn't really a SuperJam... it was GRAB with a guest appearance by Phil. So, it was really a misnomer. This year it will be a surprise guest, as it was last year, but now with the correct title.
My guesses: My Morning Jacket, The Word, or Rage (dream).

It couldn't be The Word, could it? Medeski is a part of that and he is playing at the same time with Mago and Martin... If it's Jacket or TMV or even Bob Dylan is a possibility I probably would dig my grave in the front row and just bury myself after the set and die happy.

I agree, I don't think it will be a classic Superjam.
Right now, I'm leaning towards it being Page. I could also see them bringing in a Roo favorite like Jim James to do a set. I think there is a glaring absence of an indie scene on Friday night (not that there's not a ton to do).
I could also see Zappa Plays Zappa or the Marley brothers (plus the Wailers) as a possibility.

Nonetheless, it was still listed as Superjam on the schedule, at least the schedule we got when we arrived.
My two picks would be Rage and the Marley brothers.
I've heard somewhere that the Marley bros have their sched. open during Bonnaroo, and I have a feeling that at least one of the bros will make an appearance. Maybe Stephen, since he just came out with an album. Damn, that would be awesome.
I'm liking just about all the posibilities being listed right now, but the ones that stand out to me would be Jim James possibly with a bunch of guests, Rage is just too big and too good to fill that slot, would be nice though, but I'd really love to see Zappa Plays Zappa. That would be very much open to guests and "Superjamming."

I don't know why I didn't think of these before but here are two other likely possibilities. I think the first is very likely:
1) Bustle in your Hedgerow - They're already doing two shows in June, and the Duo are doing some others, but they have nothing going on Bonnaroo weekend. This would make a sick late night.
2) Ryan Adams and the Cardinals - They start a tour 3 days later in Minnesota.
Notably, both the Arcade Fire and Interpol are free that weekend as well. The both of them start European tours a week later. I just think both of these bands (and probably Ryan Adams) are a little big to go unannounced.

That would be the show of the weekend. Except for the fact that it would last about twenty seconds, or at least as long as it took Rodman to get ahold of him.
I really dont think it'll be some huge act because its in The Other Tent. Thats a relatively small stage, yes? I dont think Bonnaroo would schedule a big act on such a small stage with String Cheese on Which Stage, Aesop, El-P and Shadow in This Tent and STS9 in The Other Tent.
i forget how it was done in the past... Do they announce who is playing at superjam beforehand, or do you have to just show up and see who comes on stage?
