It wasn't my fault. Honest... I ran out of gas! I--I had a flat tire! I didn't have enough money for cab fare! My tux didn't come back from the cleaners! An old friend came in from out of town! Someone stole my car! There was an earthquake! A terrible flood! Locusts! IT WASN'T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!!!

See.....I kinda like it. It's a love/hate thing. At times it can be glorious. Other times I want to punch a brick wall over and over since that'll be less painful than reading some of the discussions.
The list of female headlining potentials does seem thin, especially if you exclude super-mainstream Madgagayonce contingent. Grace Potter and Adele are the only two contemporary options I can think of at first glance, and even then I'd be afraid that GP might invite Kenny Chesney to join her if she were to HL. Others that could headline:
- Joni Mitchell (retired) - Grace Slick (retired, and scary) - Aretha (probably too many diva issues to deal with Roo) - Dolly (would cause the lineup to be overly top-heavy) - Tina (could this be a possibility?) - Jamie Lee Curtis (er, I mean Annie Lennox)

Grace Potter still plays club shows (at least in Chicago), I'm not sure you could consider her headliner material, at least not yet.
No Doubt (fronted by Gwen of course) are probably big enough to headline, but I don't think they would be a good fit for Roo, probably more Coach or Lolla.

A lot of people are putting Deadmau5 down as their "EDM headliner" but I really don't think we'll see him in the top 6-7 names this year. His most recent record flopped and he hasn't gotten any bigger since the last time he played, with many other big EDM acts passing him in popularity in the meantime. Anyone think the big EDM act this year might be M.I.A.? She's rumored to be doing both Ultra and Coachella and she has a new record due out in late spring/early summer...
