Are the Chicks big enough to headline? I'd imagine they'll be that fourth headliner slot that plays the main stage before one of the top 3. All three of those names is pretty underwhelming for me
they’re big enough…but is the demo at Bonnaroo right for them? Can’t imagine many Chicks fans camping in the 100 degree TN sun for 5 days.
I don't think they'd be ~the one headliner~ with no other competition, but if they were up against another artist of a similar calibur in a different genre, then totally.
Typically the fourth name on the poster is considered a "headliner," but still conflicts with some other act. Like Beach Boys in 2012, Bjork in 2013 and Kendrick in 2015. And if I recall correctly, Tame Impala was supposed to be the fourth headliner last year, playing a late night set that conflicted with others. Lizzo would've been unopposed though.
Last year was the first time they ever presented the schedule like that, with two headliners each day. However, when a headliner is playing What Stage all the other stages shut down for at least the first hour of the set.
This has been circulating tonight. We'll find out tomorrow morning if this is actually legit. But if it is I think it's really solid! Arctic Monkeys! Also Stevie Nicks is a bucket list show for me, and will be the first female headliner for Roo. EDIT: Sorry, found out that poster was fake so I removed it!
Inforoo is 50/50 on if that's real or not but we'll find out tomorrow! Not a terrible lineup in my opinion.
Yeah I've been monitoring Inforoo for a bit. Sounds like it's already been confirmed that 21 Savage is playing and YYY's are not, so it sounds fake. We'll know for sure tomorrow!
The top 10 is sounding like Tool - J Cole - Stevie Nicks - The Chicks - Robert Plant - The War on Drugs - Machine Gun Kelly - 21 Savage - Herbie Hancock - Disclosure I dont know why I'm torturing myself reading "leaks" lol
That top 10 does not interest me, although the newest Robert Plant album with Alison Krauss is really good
They booked MGK and ATL…fuck Bonnaroo and all the shit they put out about creating safe spaces for women. They have She-Roo camping for womens seminars, activities, and panels and then put this trash on the lineup, gross.
