I'm not good at figuring out clues. I just try to apply logic to other people's guesses, and here's what I've come up with. Led Zeppelin and Phish look to be the top headliner choices. Phish because of the recent Jammy situation. My theory on Zep is that they were originally said by NME to be headlining. They then took it down and people thought that they got confused with Lez Zep. However, I believe they also had Lez Zep on the lineup with Led Zep.
That being said, the big announcement might not be a headliner or a band for that matter. For a smaller announcement (than a headliner) I like the Justice theory. Let's also remember that just because the Allmans cancelled doesn't mean that Superfly has to bring in someone to replace them. The lineup is densely packed as it is. Thanks and good luck to everyone working on the clues.
im trying really hard not to get my hopes up (its ez to do, i just remember when the intiial lineup came out and im grounded again) i still think the most logical thing is going to be clapton...i could care less about these clues (even though thats not true at all)
im trying not to get my hopes up either. someone mentioned earlier that they could be just announcing news that thursday will be a full day, and that could be considered BIG news along with a few smaller additions that we already know about like the whigs
someone also said that they are replacing ABB with WSP in the other thread

I totally know what you guys mean about not getting our hopes up...I'm afraid we'll all end up depressed if we don't get what we want! And yeah, I definitely won't be a happy camper if the big announcement isn't a lineup addition.
seriously, bonnaroo announcing a full day on thursday would be BIG news.
i mean obviously there are all these clues leading up to bands, but for some reason i just get the feeling that the big news isnt about a big artist being added...
I just checked Pollstar and Saturday is still missing. They have added or changed the following: Bear in Heaven Adele Disco Biscuits (change) MGMT (Change) Sometymes Why
Again, Saturday being gone is interesting. Does anyone think that part of the announcement could have to do with Jakob Dylan's Band? I looked for them a week or so ago and there is no informaiton for them other than the fact that they're touring with him. No members, history, fan posts, etc.

Well, if they made Thursday a full day, that would indeed be big...and they'd have to fill it up with artists, so it sort of WOULD be an artist addition...in a way.

i hope im wrong.
I don't think all these clues mean bunk, and we wouldn't be having a clue flood about bands, because they have 4 days now. However it could be big that because now we have 4 days here are all the extra bands we are gonna add. Of course as I have already proved on here I am capable of irriational exuberance.

true, and they would need a thurs headliner. maybe they are announcing a full day plus the headliner???

oh im not saying bands wont be added. I just think they will be smaller than any of us are thinking in this thead and the BIG news is something else not related to a specific band... unless of course the clues are all relating to the thurs headliner if thats the case.

Yeah, I could definitely see the announcement being a full-day thursday with so-and-so headlining - that would be a great way to announce it and it would certainly be BIG!

God fucking damnit. If I see the words led zeppelin posted in any capacity one more time I'm gonna shoot myself. LED ZEPPELIN is not fucking playing. Face the goddamn facts.
katbur2 your jakob dylan comment intrigues me. I also get nothing when i click on the name on bonnaroo.com I thought there was something wrong with my web browser when i tried to look it up. interesting stuff.
God quacking damnit. If I see the words led zeppelin posted in any capacity one more time I'm gonna shoot myself. LED ZEPPELIN is not quacking playing. Face the Dosh darn facts.
they always announce additions on wednesday. Maybe they are giving us big news on a on Thurs because they will be announcing that thurs will be a full day!

maybe they are announcing it on a thursday because it is a well known fact that if you polled the founding members of Led Zeppelin back in their prime as to what their favorite day of the week was....their answer would be a resound Thursday!!!

Interesting I nominate you to do the research and math on that one, then you may further use your deductive powers to tell us how the clue matches what you want it to.

we're crazy you guys. i just hope my initial reaction to hearing this announce is "hell yea" cause we're definitely building this up. Any of the main bands/artists we've listed in the last couple of crazy days would be fine with me.
