The top of the bill is great (albeit somewhat unrealistic), although it needs some re-ordering (I can't imagine Radiohead being billed below The White Stripes, and I say this as an enormous fan of both acts), and David Gilmour and Arcade Fire would both definitely be in the top five. There are a couple good lower tier acts (mostly comedy, John Frusciante, Cee-Lo, and everything from Sufjan Stevens through Mavis Staples), but I agree, the undercard is kind of weak sauce - which is the opposite of how I usually feel about the Bonnaroo lineup - that is to say, the acts I'm most excited for are usually second and third tier acts, while there's usually only one headliner who I'm truly excited for.
mary j blige, brad paisley, sheryl crowe, drake, lyle lovett, pee-wee herman, mavis staples and JEWEL have no business being anywhere near the farm next year
wheres the indie rock/electronic/jam?
Do you even know who Mavis Staples is? She played in 07 and is welcome back anytime.
Yeah - I saw her a couple weeks ago and she was phenomenal. I'd definitely love to see her on the farm.

The perfect lineup would have Jacket AND Daft Punk (and Arcade Fire and Radiohead, etc.). The Bonnaroo X lineup won't, but the perfect one would.
While every year there are people who have unrealistically high expectations and put four huge names at the top of their mock lineups, I could potentially foresee something like this being feasible, since you have two gigantic names (Radiohead and Daft Punk) and two somewhat smaller names (Arcade Fire and My Morning Jacket) in your top four. I'm not necessarily saying it's going to happen, I'm just saying it's not entirely out of the realm of possibility that one year we could see:
Fri: Arcade Fire (8:30 - 11:00) > Daft Punk (12:30 - 2:30) Sat: Radiohead (9:30 - 12:00) Sun: My Morning Jacket (9:00 - 12:00)
Maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part, though.

Gotta see them live, man. Live show is much more convincing than their records, IMO. I wasn't in love with them until I saw them live (but now I loooove their first four records).
