2008 Bonnaro Lineup

[ggw]

Black Kids are the new Vampire Weekend.  
 
 Hurry up and love/hate them before your friends do.

[reggie]

my morning jacket's profile has really shot up in the last three years.

[heather]

ticket pricing:
 
 first bunch:  $209.50 each
 second bunch:  $229.50
 after that:  $244.50
 
 this line up isn't enough to lure me to TN again.  i'm feeling much like most of you do-- crossing fingers for pearl jam and sigur ros somewhere closeby!  and i'm looking forward to that REM/modest mouse/the national show the day before!

yeah, it's really kinda ridiculous.  i was considering going to their radio city hall show, but it sold out instantly - i tried pulling tickets seconds after onsale, and got "not tickets available" right away.  didn't realize they were THAT big. when did MMJ become an A-list band?

Get with the program man. The Black Kids are last week's hip band, this week is all about Fuck Buttons.

the main rumor on the Bonnaroo messageboards is that they'll announce Led Zeppelin as a headliner after tickets have been onsale a while. it is odd how last night news outlets like the AP immediately announced that led zep was headlining and then took down the article with no retraction statement.

[Chulahoma]

that would be cool, but why would they have Lez Zeppelin on the bill?

 I think this is a massive oops, as the lineup has "Lez Zeppelin".  It's an all female Led Zeppelin cover band.

Why is that an oops, seeing as Led Zeppelin was rumoured as once playing the festival, why not schedule a tribute band because the real thing isn't available.
 
 PJ have confirmed... [/b]

I figured someone saw Lez Zeppelin on the bill, read it incorrectly and got overexcited.  Just a guess.

[lomein]

yeah, but on the other hand if they did book Led Zeppelin how else would they announce it without being unfair to the people that go to Bonnaroo every year? Tickets would fly as soon as they confirmed zep as headliner so if they booked them I could see how a late announcement would be to everyone's benefit.

I thought Page was pretty clear that nothing with Zeppelin would happen until after Plant's tour with Allison Krauss.

[Chulahoma]

..but then again, what about the zeppelin fans?  This would lead to scalper's dream and tickets selling for an insane amount of money.  I hope Zeppelin will just do their own headlining tour.

I'd much rather see an all lesbian Led Zeppelin cover b..actually, I'd rather just see any random group of lesbians than the actual Led Zeppelin.
