Ambitious...yeah. You are a machine sir if you could pull this off.
If I tried to keep this pace, I'd drop dead somewhere around Das Racist.

What I've got planned... Thursday is a bit of a toss up but this is what I'm thinking The Dirty Guv'nuhs>The Cave Singers>Danny Brown>Moon Taxi/White Denim>Phantogram>Big Gigantic
Friday Tune-Yards>Hide from the sun at camp>Avett Bros>Aziz or afrocubism on the sonic stage>Dawes>Foster the People>RADIOHEAD>Black Star>Flying Lotus>Umphreys (assuming they play later than FlyLo)
Saturday Bad Brains/Das Racist>Trampled by Turtles Sonic Stage>Battles>SBTRKT>Mogwai/The Roots>RHCP>Alice Cooper/Superjam>GZA
Sunday Fruit Bats>wander and conserve energy>The Beach Boys>BenFolds Five/The Joy Formidable>BON IVER>Not really sure yet>Phish!!!
Saturday while being my least anticipated day is actually one of the more intriguing now that I think about it. Its jts very diverse. I'm gonna see punk, hip hop, bluegrass, Math?, EDM, post rock, more hip hop, hard rock, who knows! And again more hip hop. Pretty crazy to think about
As much as I want to see Phantogram on Thursday, I think I've decided to jump over to This Tent after White Denim to make sure I get a decent spot of Alabama Shakes. They are a top 10 priority and I'm going to kick myself if I can't see their set.
That being said, what do I need to know about Kendrick Lamar?
Thursday: K.Flay Danny Brown Yelawolf (To get a good spot for Kendrick) Kendrick Lamar Alabama Shakes (Partial Set: First 15-20 Mins) Big Gigantic (Partial Set:Last 40-45 Mins, Hope they play late) MiMOSA (If he's still playing after Big Gigantic Stops)
Friday: Michael Kiwanuka TuneYards Two Door Cinema Club Avett Brothers Ludacris Foster the People Radiohead (Partial Set: Leave after about an hour to get a good spot for LN) Major Lazer OR Blackstar (This kills me) Flying Lotus Big Freedia
Saturday: Dawes (Sonic Stage Performance) Das Racist Battles (To get a good spot for SBTRKT) SBTRKT(Maybe leave a little bit early Childish Gambino (Partial Set: Get there late from SBTRKT and leave early for The Roots) The Roots RHCP Superjam (If It's good enough to sacrifice being anywhere close to Skrillex Skrillex Benton Duvall (Silent Disco)
Sunday Gary Clak Jr. Grouplove City and Colour (Partial Set: Leave a bit early) Mac Miller (Partial Set: 1 or 2 songs) Beach Boys (Partial Set: Last half hour) Bon Iver (Pit) Young the Giant (Partial Set: Couple Songs) Fun. (Partial Set: Couple Songs) Phish (Until I decide to pass out)
That being said, what do I need to know about Kendrick Lamar?
Kendrick is one of the best new rappers in the game. With the rest of the Black Hippy crew (Kendrick, Schoolboy Q, Ab-Soul, Jay Rock) they have been killing the game. He has 1 album called Section80 or #Section80 and one coming out lead by the single Therecipe ft. Dr Dre. Kendrick is really fantastic and combines a completely unique flow with smart meaningful lyrics.
Essential Tracks: Hiipower Blow my High Ronald Reagan Era Hol' Up Rigamortis The Spiteful Chant Cartoons and Cereal The Recipe
Some of these schedules are pretty funny. Not talking about the bands you're seeing, but the ambition, how unrealistic they are, and the fact that you're planning on seeing 1-2 songs from an act.
Thursday 11am- arrive, set up, Noon- eat 1pm make friends with strangers 2pm. Take candy from strangers 3pm. Realize candy was acid, 4pm. First time on acid taking a turn for the worst 5pm. Running threw crowds of people naked 6pm 1st person taken into custody by police at bonnaroo 2012

Someone help me with my only unresolved conflict. Pelican>Cosmic Suckerpunch>Bad Brains or Janka Nabay>Debo Band
I know nothing about Pelican and less about Bad Brains than I probably should, considering their history. I just interviewed Cosmic Suckerpunch and am loving their stuff.
But I also love World Music and I'm flashing back to Nashville River Stages about a decade ago, having no idea who some band called Femi Kuti was, and being blown away by the best set of the day.
So those of you with more knowledge of these bands than I have, who should I go with?
Nap > Battles > Nap > Roots > Wander lost and loaded... doesn't read as well.
Haha looks like my schedule. Just trying to be realistic. My first Bonnaroo I planned on seeing a show from noon till sunrise everyday. It doesn't work like that. The only things I'm going into Centeroo in the middle of day for is going to be tune-yards and Fruit Bats.
Thursday: Rollin in the Hay!> Doug Benson Movie Interuption!> Cave Sings> Orgone> Moon Taxi?> Brian Posehn!> Big Gigantic> Mimosa> Chris Gethard?
Friday: MTO Plays Sly?> Avett Brothers!> Feist> Rodrigo y Gabriella> Foster the People?> Radiohead!> Major Lazer!> Flying Lotus> Umphrey's McGee
Saturday: Devil Makes 3?> Das Rascist> Trampled by Turtles> Flogging Molly?> Santigold!> Childish Gambino?> The Roots!> Dispatch> Red Hot Chili Peppers!> Art vs Science> Spectrum Road> Superjam> Skrillex!> GZA?> Brenton Duvall
Sunday: Rhys Darby!> City and Colour> Beach Boys> Ben Folds Five> Bon Iver> The Shins!> Phish!
Rubblebucket The Cave Singers Dale Earnhardt Jr Jr Phantogram Alabama Shakes vs Big Gigantic Then sleep or maybe Silent Disco into Trapped in the closet sing along
Friday:
The kooks(never made it into centeroo that early last year, but one can dream) Rubblebucket Sharon Jones Maybe catch the end of Two Door Cinema Club Little Dragon Feist vs Luda Would like to catch both, but crowd and time shall tell Rodrigo y Gabriela Radiohead Black Star Flying Lotus
Saturday The Devil Makes Three(Probably won't make it) Das Racist vs Blind Pilot vs Bad Brains Battles vs Flogging Molly [Santigold vs SBTRKT Childish Gambino vs Mogwai
The Roots RHCP Art vs Science Skrillex GZA
Sunday Sara Jaroz or Delta Spirit Gary Clark Jr The Black Lips vs Here we go magic The Antlers Bon Iver vs Kurt Vile vs The Joy Formidable The Shins vs The Civil Wars Attempt to drive home or stay for Phish.
Bold= Won't miss Italics = Serious conflict or Game time decision
While it may not be popular on this board, I think his set will be pure fun. If it is all angry brahs, I will head else where. I suspect a big dance party, though.

I've always seen pretty much every show I plan on seeing from the beginning of thursday through the sat. headliner, but I always end up missing late night saturday and rest up for sunday. May try to take a nap after The Roots and catch the end of RHCP and Spectrum/Superjam this time.

a little help?
last year I downloaded a .pdf file of the schedule from this site somewhere. I think I remember from the thread that it's something a inforoo regular did annually. They were 8 1/2 x 11s.
I printed them off and laminated them and they were quite the hit. It was a fan and a schedule in one, dirt & water proof.
anybody know if I can find something similar to that on this site this year. Or if you know of anywhere else I could find something like that?

This is my first roo (also my first post, hiii) this is my most ideal schedule...
Thursday: Ema>Danny Brown>White Denim>Phantogram VS. Kendrick>Big Gigantic VS MiMosa>Cherub
Friday: Tune-Yards>Two Door Cinema Club>Little DragonVS.Fitz>Feist>End of Luda>Foster The People>Radiohead>Black Star>Flying Lotus>Big Freedia (Wishful thinking)
Saturday: Battles>SBTRKT>The Roots>RHCP>Penguin Prison/Body Language DJ set OR Art vs. Science>Skrillex
Sunday: Fruit Bats (maybe)>GroupLove>Beach Boys>1/2 of Ben Folds>Bon Iver>The Shins or Young the Giant
Guys, help me choose between Big Gigantic or MiMosa for the late night on Thursday? I like both, but I haven't seen either. Also Little Dragon or Fitz and The Tantrums?
