Nobody is butthurt, kemosabe. Like r said above, it is a 99% fruitless effort this early.
I don't really care, I'm going to do what I feel like doing.
We were doing what we felt like doing (saying it's pointless to ask bands now) and you seemed upset by it. You're not the only one allowed to do what you feel like doing
You guys are so quick to jump down anyone's throat for not being as "professional" as you guys think you are.
You're quick to judge a bunch of people you know little-to-nothing about. Nobody said you weren't being professional about this. It just doesn't make sense to ask a band now if they are booked for a festival in 7 months. They just don't know yet. But please...continue to waste your time if you'd like
I feel like we had confirmations at this time last year. I'm gonna Tweet Civil Twilight again to see if they've heard from Bonnaroo since this morning.

For Roo 2011 the first Artist confirmation was in late January. Big Boi tweeted on January 28th about Bonnaroo and that's what started that.
For Roo 2012 the we started tweeting artists around December 15th and the responses were either "not sure yet but would play if we were asked" or "No, we have other things at that time of year". Also, on December 15th last year the consensus was that we started asking bands/agents way too early lol

First of all, it takes a ton of work to announce over a hundred bands mid Feb. My Guess is several bands are booked by now, whether legally signed or just verbal. Second of all, I asked a member (who I know) of Thievery Corp. about playing Roo. next summer. His reply: "man i would love that but i don't think it's in the cards! how's things, man?!?"
Take that as a non confirmation if you want. I also see it as, if you know youre not, some bands also have to know they are.

A large portion of the lineup is definitely already booked. Several bands were likely booked in conjuction with OSL. We're probably less than a month from Roo Clues...
Thursday night like Big Gigantic? Or is he big enough to hold a late night. ( if unchained could, I imagine this could) I haven't heard of him till right now. Just checked out Illmerica. Wicked video. Could be fun.
