Has Allman brothers been considered for the jam spot?
They didn't headline last couple times they were billed. Gregg Allman is already playing solo so I doubt we'd get 2 sets from him. I wouldn't be opposed to it, though, but I love the Allmans.

we don't need a hip-hop headliner in the top 6. i'm really thinking the bands that can fill that void will be john legend with the roots, lauryn hill, black star, cee lo green and big boi. none are headliner worthy but legend and the roots could easily be a preheadliner or even in a spot like franti had last year playing at 8 on the which stage on friday.
What about a Jurassic Five reunion for the hip hop/rap headliner? One of the first hip hop groups to play at Bonnaroo. I don't know if they would be big enough but if it was a reunion possibly.

I was just going off what insider said, but I completely agree with you. I am happier with a quantity over headliners for hip hop.
Neil Young * Widespread Panic or Furthur * Arcade Fire * My Morning Jacket * Massive Attack * Robert Plant & the Band of Joy
you can prob removed Massive Attack and MMJ from that list.
she made a comment about the '6 headliners' that made me think shes referring to the 3 HL's and the other 3 are either Which closers or Pre-HL's(most like the pre-hl's).
So id guess the '6 headliners' + MMJ and MA
Neil Young - WSP - Arcade Fire - Robert Plant & The Band of Joy im guessing are correct. Then we add in the Hip Hop headliner, and if they are fitting in as a pre/which closer im guessin The Roots with John Legend and then which ever headliner they are still in discussions with.

my bad, i didn't know insider said anything about a hip hop headliner. i just saw her info on arcade fire. well then...i'd have to think it would be either the black eyed peas or dre with eminem. doesn't matter, i won't be checking out the rap headliner anyways.

Mysterious Saturday headliner * Panic or Furthur (Sunday headliner) * Black Eyed Peas or Dre with Eminem (Friday night co-headliner) * Arcade Fire (Friday night co-headliner) * Massive Attack (LN) * MMJ (LN or preheadliner) * Plant (Sunday preheadliner)
this is pretty bad news. No furthur? wtf did they back out last second?? lower expectations? Why is Bonnaroo still trying to secure a headliner? get your sh*t together. its the 10th f*cking year. AND ITS FEBRUARY NOW!
i think Phish is headlining with neil young but thats just me

no furthur? not cool.
Yeah, that was another nugget of info from insider. So I guess WSP, Neil Young, or Phish for Sunday? Phish seems unlikely, I don't know anymore...
And does she realize that REM has stated that they aren't going to be doing a tour off their new album? Unless this is a one-off, which seems unlikely.
She told me they WOULD be doing a huge reunion tour, so who knows. I was just bringing it up because we were told to lower our expectations, which in essence kills a lot of big names we have been throwing around, so I figured maybe she is on to something with the REM talk

anyone who is happy furthur us ruled out clearly doesnt understand the history this festival has. it wouldve been real nice to get some GD back on the farm for the 10 yr. Furthur wouldve been the perfect Sunday Closer. its F'd up that something happened last second which caused them to bail.
the n00bs on this site really do baffel me.
Trey Anastsio loves Bonnaroo more than anyone. If he/ph wants to play, they will play
