    I saw this over on the Roo board:

    "according to Jack Johnsons web page he will be playing a few songs with pearl jam b4 their regular set, to fill in for the allman brothers slot. "

    I'm thinking maybe something like the Gorge 05, a nice 10 song set to kick things off (at the end of JJ's set) then 2 hours of mayhem during their slot, that's my theory and I'm sticking to it ;-) Anyway, just looking forward to the whole weekend, should be awesome.

    i think that was "exaggerated"
    from jack johnson's website...
    "Jack Johnson has chosen to join his friends Pearl Jam on the main stage Saturday night stepping into the slot vacated by the Allmans. Jack will perform beginning at sunset, to be followed by Pearl Jam's closing main stage set."

    It stands to reason that the Jack Johnson set will morph into Pearl Jam's set, rather than having a very clear definition between the two.

    That's how they're going to get more than 2 hours...I think.

    I agree with this. There is no doubt the two will do something together, so I definitely wouldn't rule out an acoustic set with Jack before the 10:15 start time.
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    at the same time, the people that want to see PJ but are not coming here or aware of the connection would miss out on the beginning of it is they started early.
    Sorry but running late is possible, starting early never happens...best case scenario is Ed joining Johnson for a couple of songs.

    Are people actually suprized that there is disappointment here???? I cant believe anyone here has the nerve to claim that we should not be disappointed bc we should have expected a 2 hr time slot since its a festival.....NO, what everyone expected was for pj to get a usual headliner time slot, so of course people are gonna be bummed.

    I don't think so. The reason I say this is not only is there 1 1/2 hours between JJ's set and PJ's set, but what about the clearing of the pit between acts?

    If JJ's set morph's into PJ's set, what will happen with the pit clearing and the line? I don't think they would clear out the pit while performers are on the stage. Would all the JJ fans wind up staying in the pit for the PJ set while all the PJ fans had to stay in the line or go behind 60,000 other fans.... YIKES!


    I think that Eddie will come out for a couple of songs with JJ during JJ's 90 minute set. And then PJ will play a few minutes over the 2 hrs.

    I better get into better shape just to run between stages at Bonnaroo. Too many bands too little time.

    Definitely liking the sound of Drive By Truckers to Tegan and Sara/Stephen Marley( splitting my time) to Les Claypool to The Raconteurs to Willie Nelson to Chris Rock ( leave Willie early) to Metallica to MMJ . PHEW! One heckuva Friday.

    Saturday looks like Donavon Frankenreiter to Little Feat to Gogol Bordello to Cat Power ( 4:30 to 5:15) to B.B. King to a little Levon Helm to Jack Johnson to Pearl Jam to Sigur Ros.

    Thankfully Broken Social Scene,Harrybu McCage x 2 sets , Aimee Mann, Death Cab, and Robert Plant and Allison Kraus looks like a relaxed Sunday.


    Looking forward to meeting and hanging with many Jammers over the three days I'm there.

    Two hours is okay with me, though I don't believe they'll only two hours. I never planned on The Roo being the defining moment of my trip. The entire thirteen show run is THE highlight. The Roo is a chance to see more than 20 bands I like AND my favorite band (PJ) over three days.

    Is there going to be a webcast of any type for the bonnaroo performance?

    You guys can stop the panic...

    http://bonnaroo.proboards21.com/index.cgi?board=music&action=display&thread=13516&page=2

    A few posts down, all your fears will be put to rest.

    From the inforoo board:



    A direct quote from Ashley Capps, THE AC in AC Entertainment to Mike McCready on the telecon last week....

    "Bonnaroo is a 24/7 experience. And none of us are going to tell Pearl Jam to quit playing."....

    And tho I think he was kidding...when asked how long PJ would play at Bonnaroo....Mike said 5 and a half hours....

    AND

    Well....here's what Mike REALLY said they would probably do.....an exclusive preview for my Inforoo peeps!

    "Knowing us, we’ll start off with probably an hour-and-a-half to two hour set. And then come back and do like a 10 song encore and then maybe come back and do more."

    So.....there you have it..... Straight from the guitarist's mouth - LOL!
