Also new in '08: you can also purchase a "commemorative DVD" when you purchase your ticket (will be delivered in 12/08). Tickets on sale Saturday, February 16th, 2008 at 12:00 PM EDT through bonnaroo.com.

well that's very disappointing

NME's saying Led Zeppelin's playing. I'd lol if they misread it as Lez Zeppelin.

Well, if Led Zeppelin is playing, they should tell the Bonnaroo people:

That was a rumor from December. They are not playing Bonnaroo.

There you go.
Score = 0
Well, now that I see the AP article, I am getting a headache. Why are they not listed on the damn lineup? Ughhh, this is confusing.
Score = 0
It was confirmed by NME who said earlier in the day they were making a major announcement at Midnight.

If they're wrong, then I'll remove this:

Weak Bonnaroo. Better good ahead and book Zeppelin. Led Zeppelin.
Score = 0
sounds good to me
Score = 0
so i guess this means MBV and radiohead are playing lolla. WOOTY WOOT WOOT!!!!
Score = 0
Everyones saying this is weak, looks pretty sweet to me. Sure there aren't 500 indie acts to choose from, but jack johnson headline fits perfect for leaving early to see mmj. Can basically see random cool shit or huuuuge headliners that would cost more to see alone than the bonnaroo ticket.
Score = 0
looks great to me, i'm really excited!
Score = 0
Everyone is changing their headlines, and so am I. It sounded too good to be true, didn't it?

This HAS to be all NME's fault, right?
Score = 0
They built it up so heavily that it has to be their fault. It's like, seriously: FUCK YOU NME. Nothing wrong with Pearl Jam et. al., but for them to build it up like this only to be wrong....I mean, how do you fuck that up when you have ALL DAY to confirm it?
Score = 0
Better than Coachella. But, Jack Johnson again? Please no.
Score = 0
I wonder if that is Broken Social Scene or Broken Social Scene presents....
If so, it would be nice to see them all on the same stage again, like Lolla in 2006.
All in all, not a bad lineup. Looking forward to Sigur Ros and MMJ considering a new album will be out by then. MIA, MGMT, Raconteurs, Against Me!, and !!! are always a good time.
Score = 0
not better than coachella. at all.
Score = 0
I'll be heading south just for MMJ and PJ. Jack Johnson's new album is nowhere near solid enough to pull any kind of headline'n duties. Metallica? Hippies against the kids with long black hair, epic battles across middle Tennessee. That's the only reason I can come up with why the Roo would invite Metallica. Who wants to eat drugs and catch some late-night Chk Chk CHk?!
Score = -1
that line up is a wet dream for me
Score = 0
So this is gonna be the worst festival year ever. yeah?
Where are MBV and Radiohead?
Score = 0
You fuckers are spoiled. You know how hard it is for someone like me to get to or even afford this shit? Spoiled motherfuckers.
That lineup is awesome. I hate at least half the bands on that list and the lineup is still awesome.
And, listen, I hate Jack Johnson, too. A lot. But there seem to be a few people out there who disagree with me. Just cause you and me want to punch him doesn't mean booking him is a bad idea. You try running a festival of this size and tell me you'd turn down the chance for him to play.
You posers are just going to go out there and stand still. You're supposed to go and have fun and fucking dance, even if you don't like the band. I hate Metallica. But you think I wouldn't be in that mosh pit?
Thesis statement: fuck everybody. =)

Chris, I think you may have some anger issues, guy.
And to respond to your statement, "You're supposed to go and have fun and fucking dance, even if you don't like the band." that would be a definite NO. I'm thinkin, if I don't like the band, then I might not be having fun and dancing. Because if I was having fun and dancing, I'd probably like the band....

I took the liberty of running a few of these posts through Babelfish in case some of you out there can't read crybaby.

Come on guys this is a pretty sweet lineup. All the bands I want to see:
My Morning Jacket
The Raconteurs
Sigur Ros
The Swell Season
Gogol Bordello
BSS
Lupe
Solomon Burke
!!!
Battles
Aimee Mann
fucking Ladytron!
and I'm sure they will add a few others. I mean what do you want that this is missing? My Bloody Valentine? Kevin Shields even admits that they are horrible live. Radiohead? Can't argue with you there, but they have already headlined Bonnaroo. This is going to be sweet.

This lineup kicks ass!

Poster 11/16=.687, nice one. Especially considering I wasn't complaining.

This lineup is NOT better than Coachella. I counted 5 bands here that i would like to see. None of them were Pearl Jam or Metallica. Why don't they just book Jimmy Ray and Lou Bega and get it all over with?
Score = 0
I'm pretty psyched. Plus I dont dig any of the headliners so that means smaller crowds and an early ride home on sunday.

Jesus christ, STFU about Radiohead.

Uh ... Jakob Dylan? Seriously?

this lineup suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks.

I am so letdown and I'm not even hard to please. Last years lineup blows this one away.

RYAN AND THE CARDINALS are the only act missing that caught me. otherwise, good festival line-up. they'll add more as the months wind down too...
Score = 0
Every year someone is whining about the line-up and how it is going to suck. Well go fuck ya self. If you can't have fun at this festival, with these bands, then you are lame and I'm glad you won't be there. Who do you want? Puddle of Mudd? Nickleback? Staind? Hinder? How about you go to Buzz fest then. I dare anybody to find a better line up in the united states. I go every year I can and I always hear great music. Maybe some of you need to do some music research, and realize that there are some great bands playing this festival. If you still think it sucks, then try getting a job where you can pick the bands, otherwise- go fuck ya self.
Score = 0
Not too crazy about Jack Johnson or Metallica but other than that looks good.
Screw the people who say Bonnaroo has "sold out." Look past the three headliners it looks like a traditional 'Roo lineup - jam bands and bluegrass.
Score = 0
Pearl Jam sucks ass. Vedder is the most arrogant asshole on the planet. What a fucking rip.
Score = 0
this lineup fucking rocks.eclectic as hell.
and its only the first round. start hydrating and saving dem drugzzzzzz
Score = 0
this is awesome! This reminds me of that south park episode where all the hippies are standing around and then they blare slayer "Raining Blood". If you don't like the lineup....BETTER LUCK NEXT YEAR! Go check out heavy D and the boys. Enough of this pussy fart music, metallica isn't what they used to be but they're still some of the most talented musicians out there so i hope a majority go back to their campsite when metallica comes on
Score = 0
um, 10klf.com. and this will work out well. while all the faggots are at pearl jam, metallica and jack johnson, i can enjoy my phil lesh, allman brothers, umphreys, yonder, derek trucks, robert randolph, willie, bb king, drive-by truckers. and maybe zeppelin can still play, they just dont want tickets to sell out to people who actually want to see the other bands. cant wait for more line-up updates!

U people are whinny bitches. Metalica blows goats. This festival has totally sold out. What a rim job. I would rather slash my wrists. Why not get some good bands? Shit in the woods, nasty port a potties 8$ water, piss everywhere you step, stoopid drunk stinky hippies, and dustier than the sahara. forget it, i'll take my hard earned money to Warp Tour, every city. Fuck Bonnaroo- Homo Rapers, sell outs, felch and space dock eaters.

Jack sounds good and Led Zepplin would be killer! They should bust out G-Love to join up with Jack. And damn! would't it be tight to see Rage Against The Machine walk out on stage... I heard Nirvana is gonna be there opening up for Jimmy Hendrix! All i'm saying is that the line up is decent, but could be better.

last year's bonnaroo was amazing. looking forward to this year (my company's sending me to work there!). obviously, lots of big names on the bill, but I'm most excited about broken social scene, vampire wkend, and sharon jones + dap kings. actually, our company (ourstage.com) is giving away two tickets to anyone who proves they're the biggest bonnaroo fan.

You know, maybe it's you who blows goats, not Metallica. They are some of the best musicians out there. Go google all of the awards that they have. It beats any kind of shit you like. They are one of the most popular bands alive and still touring. So maybe thats why they are in the lineup. Ever think of that?? Oh, and I think that we would all apperciate you slashing your wrists too. Next time don't quad post either...
