The link just redirects me to the main Jambase page
That's because if you look at the link it's going to ID 19, which doesn't exist as of yet so instead of saying page does not exist it just takes you to the home page. The poster is just assuming that Roo is going to be 19, but keep in mind what your father always happens when you "assume"
In addition to the link above, I've been trying this link on a daily basis: www.jambase.com/festivals/bonnaroo/ for the schedule. Now up until even this morning, this link was taking me to the 2006 schedule, but sometime after lunch this link started pointing back toward the main page instead. So sometime today they've started work on the Roo schedule on jambase. I'm guessing they have the full schedule and its only a matter of time before its released - hopefully this week and not next.

^^^^ That's the most hopeful news I've heard all day. Not surprised it comes from an IU man. Well played. Karma for being a Hoosier and for sharing a quality tip.

I think the folks at Bonnaroo have finally become wise to our tricks in finding schedules, lineups, etc. They have their bases pretty well covered this time out.
Edited to add: I would assume that hte first place we'll see the schedule will be on Bonnaroo's actual site, with jambase shortly thereafter.

Not to mention, it's a very safe assumption that people from Superfly check this board. So posting about how to find a leaked schedule, for instance, will be informing them of their own weak points. Not to knock you, TG; it's still a good place to keep checking.

OK, so when I plug in ID=18 I get to see 10k Lakes schedule. Does anyone else think its odd that 10k Lakes, a festival one month AFTER Roo, has its schedule up but SF doesn't?
I think it is rather odd. I really want to know how and why Roo schedules their event. They had a tendency to release little snippets of information piecemeal, from when tickets will go on sale to artist additions to side activities and finally to the schedule. On top of all this unannounced artists show up and unannounced events take place, e.g. Galactic with Charlie Hunter on a float, last year's Superjam, Dr. John in the 2003 Superjam, Maceo Parker in the 2004 Superjam and so on.

Think yourself lucky, the Coachella schedule comes out just 48 hours before the event.

Not at all. 10,000 lakes sells single day passes to their events, so a schedule is necessary in determining which day you are going, if you are not going to the whole thing. Bonnaroo ONLY sells 4-day passes, so a schedule is less important that far in advance, b/c they assume that you will be spending the entire weekend with them.
IF Bonnaroo ever started selling single day passes, which I doubt they will, you'll see added pressure to get a schedule out sooner.

Bonnaroo has got to be the most difficult festival to schedule. Artists backing out or getting added is definitely a main concern until about 2-3 weeks before roo. It sucks waiting but it is what i would expect. I am very hopeful of it being released today. 10K Lakes looks absurdly good this year but still probably wont have all the other things to take into account that bonnaroo does

Also notable...
If you type in www.bonnaroo.com/2007-schedule, it bounces you back to the home page, but the Somethin' Else Tent is on top not the Spotlight: Bonna Rouge.
Here's another little quirk - go to www.jambase.com/festivals/bonnaroo. Takes you back to the homepage, but the header at the top of your browser should say "BonnarooBase Powered by Jambase". I'd say it's going to be soon.

Yeah, it's saying file not found for me, too, and I checked earlier this morning and got redirected. Seems like they're putting something up, and now they've taken the page off entirely while they're creating it, so nobody can sneak on and get a leak like we did with the original lineup.

57 minutes left here in the Central time zone.
They really should just give us the schedule out of pity at this point.
I really hope they don't wait until Friday. Friday could mean bad news. Most companies fire people on Fridays to minimize the amount of drama/tension/gossip over the weekend.
