2022 Bonnaroo Rumor and Confirmation Thread

Roo theory. Read at your own risk because its probably gonna set us up for disappointment

Theory:

I think both recent leaks are somewhat correct, but misleading.

The leaked lineup poster looks like an early draft that may have been shifted around some. The acts that conflict didnt announce their conflicts until recently (like marcus king band) so I take it this could be legit, just old.

The leaks from the inforoo user seem plausible for sure. Would not be surprised to see those on there.

Coldplay leak / tour schedule seems too perfect to not happen. Would be expensive for roo though.

Heres my prediction:

Coldplay / Doja or Miley

Tool / The Chicks

Lizzo / j cole

The 2021 lineup shared headliners for each day and each day had 1 male / 1 female and they clearly tried to make it 1 band vs 1 artist in different genres. I think we see the same sentiment this year which is why the chicks make sense. A j cole x lizzo close to the weekend would be rly great to see too considering the underrepresentation of black headliners in the festival space.

Lizzo has been prepared for this headliner show for 3 years now. Id be surprised if she drops the fest now after holding on since 2019. Shes down for us I can feel it.

Coldplay makes sense based on tour schedule and another user claiming they were on it.

Jcole, chicks, and tool are all very believable. Nothing much to say here.

My feeling is doja moved to be in a headliner spot. Planet Her was huge and shes like the 12th most listened to artist in the world. If its not her it could be miley, but im not positive how they’d settle that score.
