who should switch time/stage slots...

[sang_xcx]

if you could make some schedule changes, what would they be. just thought of this when i thought that manu chao should switch slots with kings of leon. i will probably add more later.

[wilson]

Rat Dog SHOULD BE Preheadlining instead of Wilco on Sunday!

[the3penguins]

Widespread Panic should clearly not be headlining.

[wilson]

^ How can you say that? Panic will have the longest set with the most sitins. Bonnaroo started as a jam fest they have to stay true to their roots and Panic is the perfect fit. I am soo dissapointed in the hate towards Panic on this board but at the same time I guess that there will be more room for us jam heads to groove at their set.

White Stripes need to be on the What Stage, in Wilco's spot, and move everyone down a notch, with JBT moving over to the Which Stage, with everyone else moving up a slot. The White Stripes at the Which Stage is going to be madness.

I also think that The Roots and Manu Chao should switch stages.

I wouldn't call it hate, I'd call it lack of enthusiasm.

[stallion pt. 2]

put Manu Chao late night Friday

Make sure Philly experiment doesn't start until the Lips are done

Put ween after the Flaming Lips and let em play for 3 hours

schedule Jazz tent artists during the headliners (esp sun).

That's it really, and it's hopeless nitpicking. This year's schedule was impeccably planned (IMO)

[toolfreek]

id put clutch after rodgab

Id also move ween away from harper

[Bishop]

Tortoise should have gotten a late night set, and Ornette Coleman should have been given a better time slot. The one they gave him just sucks.

[urbanhippie]

I'm not complaining about time slots they did what they did for good reasons i'm sure

[Bishop]

Yeah, you can't please everyone... That said, overall, I like the way it's laid out this year.

SCI is a jamband too and seems to be MUCH more popular here. Plus it's one of their last shows, so it's historic.

[BRCHLD LFNT]

switch harper and Ziggy. That way I could see both Harper and Ween. Oh well....

[augustwest]

Put STS9 after SCI on the same stage for the love of all that is good.

EXACTLY what he said!

[chandler]

seperate Clutch and RodyGab some, so they dont overlap.

switch say....Lily Allen and Rx Bandits.

Do SOMETHING with Friday's late night. Put the superjam on Thursday, have STS9 start a little bit later, etc.

Move Martin & Medeski out of that slot. maybe to saturday

switch Gogol Bordello with like...Dr. Dog or The Slip so I can see them and the Warren Haynes acoustic set.

Have Gov't Mule start say....an hour after The Flaming Lips start.


Have The Decemberists move a little earlier so that they overlap with Bob Weir and not Wilco.

Ornette Coleman neets to be put in a better place too, mayve switch him places with Mavis Staples.


Make it so I can actually see Demitri Martin at some point. His sets always clash with something I really wanna see =(

[sascwatch]

either way, I know the superjam needs to be thursday as there is no more room left to jam friday night!!! or any night....besides thursday

I'm with you here. Stripes-- the FIRST name on the lineup after headliners-- on the second stage makes no sense. I suppose they are thinking of dividing the indie and jamband demographics, and that's why there's a bit of overlap with Panic (they've never done that before, right?), but even still it will be absolute madness at their set.

[pat5507]

they should move a late night from friday & saturday to late nights on thursday

[bryanaroo]

i think with the white stripes on the which stage and overlap thing they are just trying to keep everybody from leaving early sunday. because if the message boards are any indication the majority of the people are not plannin on staying for panic

[ncbst3]

I was actually kinda hoping White stripes would have played a little earlier so I could get back to the hotel a little earlier. Not that im going to be that anxious to leave Roo but when the Stripes are done pretty much my Roo is done.

yes Indeed they should, or just give us more music going later into thursday nite/early friday.

[sang_xcx]

my changes:

to make thur. perfect for me i would move mute math up a slot and put rod y gab between them and clutch.

the king of leon/ manu chao switch on fri.

on sat. which ocms and wmmgi
have govt. mule start at 2 am instead of midnight

on sun. switch wolfmother and decemberists

just small changes that would make it easier for me.

[famousblueraincoat]

1. switch manu chao with string cheese incident so they are late night friday

2. switch dr. dog with gogol bordello so they are not conflicting with o.c.m.s.

3. Switch Franz Ferdinand with Ziggy Marley so they are not conflicting with Ween/Spoon/Ben Harper.

4. Switch Spoon with Wild Magnolia and Wild Magnolia with Hot Tuna so they are not conflicting with Ween/Ben Harper.

5. Put Ween after Flaming Lips late night on Which Stage.

6. Move everything on Which Stage on Sunday up one half hour so as to avoid conflict between Wilco and Decemberists.

[mynameismax]

move keller williams back an hour. same stage and everything, nobody is scheulded on that stage for four hours after he plays.

Good Idea, that would be phatty, but will never happen.

If they just switched Panic with Cheese, I would be SO happy!
If Panic was in that slot I would have no reason to miss STS9 and then could miss Panic.

Also Cheese would have a crazy farewell send off set full of special guests and it would end Bonnaroo so much sweeter for me.
Instead Panic closes us out again. (A very sarcastic yippee to that one)

[sascwatch]

haha that would be cool. but it does spread people out and lets cheese play what they want for as long as they want. which is going to be crazy!! but come on now...don't act like panic is fallout boy or something like that. haha
