This afternoon, Bonnaroo co-founders Jonathan Mayers and Black Kerry held a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything), answered questions about the lineup this year, including the acts, changes in the festival, escaped and dream heads cartel.
Among The Things We Learned:
- Video screens have been added after this, that, and other stores.
- Besides the Grateful Dead, the prince was a guest acts to headline the festival this year, but eventually declined.
- Yes, Bonnaroo has asked Jack White to host a SuperJam: "Every time Jack is ready've discussed before, of course, and we hope that will happen someday!"
- Regarding additions to the lineup this year, "we finished headliners announced for 2015 ... but a lot of great artists, comedians and attractions to announce yet."
- Mayers was not too high in performance like Kanye headlining Bonnaroo last year. "Uhmmmm, how I can answer that without getting into trouble?" He said on the set.
- The festival organizers decided to launch early 2015 poster "because we were ready earlier than in years past ... and psyched to get the information."
- One of the major initiatives of Bonnaroo is to "create more experiences in the camps".
- "The growing number of festivals has created more competition for talent upgrading fees talent", therefore the prices of the highest entries.
- Bonnaroo has already started work on the alignment of 2016. U2 is on the shortlist.
