I'm not too in hurry.. I'm short in cash..so in a way, the later the better

I could do with them waiting two weeks to announce it

Anyone know how much the tickets will be... and if they take laser?

i think i read on the inforoo site that they expect them to release the schedule either this wednesday or next wednesday.

yeah they tend to agree over there that it will be a wednesday.

that "fake" lineup makes me not really want to go, only a few bands that I would want to see, and id rather not drive 12 hours to do so...

Led Zeppelin guitarist wants world tour

By ERIC TALMADGE, Associated Press Writer 2 hours, 16 minutes ago

TOKYO - Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page said Monday he was ready to take the iconic band on a world tour after burning up the stage at last month's reunion concert in London. But it probably won't be before September.

"The amount of work we put into O2 was what you would normally put into a world tour anyway," Page, 64, said of the intense rehearsing the band did for the Dec. 10 concert at London's O2 Arena.

The band's three surviving members — Page, singer Robert Plant and bassist-keyboardist John Paul Jones — were joined at the sold-out benefit show by the late John Bonham's son Jason on drums.

Page, who was in Japan to promote the new Zeppelin release, "Mothership," said the two-hour-plus concert was proof that Led Zeppelin can still perform at its best.

He said the band, which formed in 1968, was ready musically to get back together and take it out on a wider run, but it was not clear when it would go on tour as the singer had other plans.

"Robert Plant has a parallel project and he is busy with that until September," Page said.

Plant and bluegrass star Alison Krauss will begin their world tour with a run of shows in the southern U.S. this spring. The two released an album in October called "Raising Sand" that debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard chart in the U.S. The duo will tour Europe in May before returning for North American shows still to be announced for June and July.

Page said the band set their standards very high before agreeing to do the reunion, their first in 20 years. Led Zeppelin broke up in 1980 after the elder Bonham's death.

Page said they rehearsed for weeks, apprehensive that the cohesion they had in the 1970s when they were at their peak might be hard to rediscover.

"We wanted people who might not have even been alive in 1980 when we finished to understand what we were," he said.

Page said all went well until he broke a finger in three places, forcing the band to postpone the show for several weeks.

"But we did the show, and it was great," he said. "It was instant in terms of chemistry."

again thank you, that's really good to know. Cos if it doesn't take laser, which most don't, I do need a couple of days advance to sort out credit card so a week is MORE than enough Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehaw.

no word if they're doing it again this year, but if it helps last year they had a payment plan that let you pay a bit more than half up front and the balance a month or two down the road...but you could always email them too, they are great about getting back to you quickly

And btw that line-up is fake.

Yeah I'd say so. I mean, does Manson even play outdoors?

No Fear Of Falling

Is Murfreesboro far out of the way?

Only place I can find a decent hotel..

Capstoner

No Murfreesboro will be fine (about 30 miles away). Do you plan on attending many concerts or just primarily PJ?

I'm staying at a hotel there for just the Sunday night after the festival is over- to get a good night sleep and to shower...

As of now, primarily PJ. Still waiting to see the line up though for my final decision.

Just my wife and I for now. I'm waiting until PJ announces before I see if anyone else wants to go. What about you?

4Powers20

I dont think PJ will be there. it looks like the headliners will be
Fri - widespread panic
Sat - rush
Sun - phil lesh and friends (trey anastasio included)

got this off another board. they are also saying lineup will be announced tommorrow.

I agree.

Id be suprised if it was Rush

They are playing philly June 14th

Phill might do Saturday night -late night jam
Sunday could be REM, the eagles or pearl jam

Rush will announce tommorrow that the philly show will be postponed. Let me say that this is not confirmed but it is looking pretty accurate.

meh, I don't buy it...no way they would have both panic and lesh as headliners, certainly not with the direction they have taken in recent years...plus rush? nah

here are their dates for the bonnaroo weekend anyway

Thu 06/12/08 Montreal, QC Bell Centre
Sat 06/14/08 Philadelphia, PA The Wachovia Center
Sun 06/15/08 Mansfield, MA Tweeter Center For The Perf. Arts

Finally, courtesy of Inforoo...

http://www.1061thecorner.com/ third from the top

"Hang out with the Corner all weekend long as we take a trip to Bonnaroo. We'll be playing the best performances from Bonnaroo past.

Then listen to Mornings on the Corner on Wednesday, February 6th for the complete lineup for Roo '08. Get in thr know first with your Official Bonnaroo Station, 106-1 the Corner."

Superfly will most likely say something tomorow morning about this, as in recent years there has been at least a week's notice

LukinFan

Damnit, we have to wait another week for the line-up!!!!!????

robbyblaylock

another rumour off inforooster - cross your fingers, but again, no gaurantees (this is almost too good to be true, and probably another "leaked" list from superfly - i still think they enjoy doing this)

Pearl Jam, Neil Young, Dave Matthews and Friends, Beastie Boys, Allman Brothers Band, Daft Punk, Queens of the Stoneage, Phil Lesh and Friends
Oysterhead, Robert Plant & Alison Krauss, B.B. King, Steely Dan, Jack Johnson
Modest Mouse, Willie Nelson, Ani Difranco, Death Cab for Cutie, My Morning Jacket, Portishead, Mars Volta, Iron and Wine, Dr. John
Robert Randolf and the Family Band, Yonder Mountain String Band
Ziggy & Damien Marley, moe., Galactic, Ween, Leftover Salmon, North Mississippi Allstars, Matisyahu, Polyphonic Spree, ALO, John Butler Trio, Joss Stone, Umphrey's McGee, Black Keys, Medeski, Scofield, Martin, and Wood
STS9, Particle, Lotus, Disco Biscuits, The Slip, Son Volt, Avett Brothers, RJD2
Gomez, The Streets, Blind Melon, C2B3, O.A.R., Mute Math, Secret Machines
Tortise, Brazillian Girls, Hot Buttered Rum, Xavier Rudd, Ekoostik Hookah, Raq
Infected Mushroom, Drive By Truckers, Steel Pulse, Railroad Earth, Hot Chip
Perpetual Groove, The Lee Boys, The Whigs, 22-20's, DJ Logic, Sasha, Balkan Beat Box, Girl Talk

again, like i said, this was on the inforooster board a day or two ago and is very likely nowhere near accurate especially since there are so many repeats from last years lineup, plus not all of these acts apparently have the schdule to fit the dates. we will see soon (im hearing february 6th)

dont let the waiting drive you too mad

Jesus.. talk about toying with my emotions!

I have a strong suspicion that Pearl Jam does nothing this year besides maybe a bit of election stuff. I'd be surprised if they play Bonnaroo...
