At least now I have 24 hours to get over the disappointment of Jack White being a headliner so I can instantly get hyped about the undercard when the lineup drops.
Strong, strong undercard (IMHO). Along with one more 'headliner' (whatever that means).....
insider hasn't logged in since January. I am kind of thankful for that, I wouldn't want her to see all the ridiculous stuff that gets posted in this thread.
Anyway, I know it is a long shot, but I am still hoping and hoping and hoping to hear Prince's name called out tomorrow.
I'm assuming she reads some of this stuff without logging in. She obviously is smart enough to know that half of us check when she last logged in every once in a while. Kanye and Elton are enough to get me to buy a ticket so the third mystery headliner is just an added bonus. I'm just pissed because we have to go through another year of Prince being on everyone's mocks.
insider should come back on and tell us if the 4th person she was talking about was beach boys, who they are if they fell through, or if they are still working on it. Also idk if it has been said yet but Darondo is a huge get and is gonna be awesome
Neil Young and Crazy Horse was what I really thought was going to come through - I didn't name them since they weren't confirmed but it was real close. Could it still happen? Don't know.....
I think its worthwhile to point out that (very) early signs were pointing to Radiohead, Prince, Lil Wayne and Furthur all performing this year - and none of them panned out....
Let's finish off Friday's lineup - I think I will make a lot of people happy when I reveal......
My Morning Jacket (can't recall which act is first - but there are your 2 for Friday)
Funny that of the 4 remaining prime-time acts (I'm gonna start using that term now instead of 'headliner') I haven't seen one person even speculate as to the earlier Sat night act.....
Boy, you guys are much farther off this year on your guesses than usual. First of all jakicker is right that even now, we are still waiting for 100% confirm on one of the headliners. Also, this girl you guys have been about - she knows nothing.
So before I start my annual tease, please look up my past years posts before anyone questions my credibility.
Now - where do we start.......
OK, how about with the one that everyone seems to assume - let's start by checking off Arcade Fire - you can consider them a confirm for Friday night......
After that, I'm sorry to say that most of the speculation on here is way off.....
Start thinking less about big name headliners...........
Lil Wayne as the rap headliner?
Not as many big name headliners.... You ruling out Radiohead then?
Keep in mind that I am only referring to 'headliners' here, which I'll define as the 2 'prime time' spots each on Fri, Sat and Sun (6 acts) - so, just because I may say no to someone who guesses a particular act doesn't mena they may not end up on a late-night or daytime stage.....
So let's do some eliminating - I will start by saying that Furthur was looking as almost definite to close Sunday, but due to a conflict that crept up, they are out.........

What I posted a few weeks ago was all I knew at the time (KOL, Stevie, JayZ, DMB, Tenacious D) - I obviously know a lot more since then, but I've stayed away for a long time because despite the fact that I'm an 'insider' I'm really just a freak at heart dying to share with you all ............. but at this point you can wait a few more hours till tomorrow, no???
I know most people seem to think Jay-Z is a lock, and that may be the case. Most people are saying "if Jay-Z doesn't play, there are no other big rap acts they could get". I'm not saying he wont make the trip from "Isle of Wright" but if he didn't, there has to be someone who could fill the role of big name rap artist.
What about Eminem as the big name rap act this year? I mean he had an album out last year and another one coming this year. He just played the Grammys and didn't do any touring for the last album. I'm not saying I necessarily want him, I'm just saying I wouldn't be surprised if he was the rap act this year. And I think he'd do a pretty good job to be honest.
I figure I'll probably get flammed for bringing him up but I'm just saying maybe we should consider him as a possible headliner. And I don't have a source at all, it's just a random thought that popped into my head. If it pans out though, you know you heard it hear first ;D
I would prefer Eminem, but JayZ is a done deal....
i do believe that more people predicted something like the who, mccartney, stones or waters into jay-z, rather than stevie followed by jay-z
...and Insider said they hadn't read all that far back, and dismissed the Who, McCartney, the Stones and Waters are being incorrect. Over the past few pages, the only thing mentioned more than once that makes sense is Stevie Wonder> Jay-Z.
But please, continue to enlighten us.
Just to clarify, I suppose its theoretically possible that one of those acts could be playing in addition to the ones I have already confirmed, although I couldn't fathom any of those acts playing and not being a headliner....
I only really know of 5 acts confirmed.......Fri headliner, 2 Sat headliners, Sun headliner and one undercard.
To solve this debate about the greatest band of the decade...
Kings of Leon, Kanye West, Nick Jonas... if only Roo could secure at least one of these as a headliner... I might have a heart attack.
You guys get way off track. The only notable post in the last 3 pages is that the Avetts will be there... even though I already knew they would be at Roo.
Well, I guess you can have your heart attack, as I can confirm one of these as a headliner for 2010.
