Update – 2-10 @ 8:21am: The list now officially includes 89 artists which includes the addition of Blues Traveler (another one of our speculations), Calexico, Dan Deacon Ensemble, Hot Rize, Les Claypool, Miike Snow, Miranda Lambert, Monte Montgomery, and Tinariwen.

A few weeks ago we posted our speculations for the upcoming Bonnaroo festival and who might attend. Well, today a massive media campaign is underway by the event organizers and performing acts and information is slowly coming forward. The list so far includes over 75 artists and groups who will be making appearances this year. Including one blind musician who was one of the last to be announced today.

Can you take a guess who?

Many of our speculations were admittedly far-fetched. However a few of our big picks have made it on the official list including Jay-Z who is also performing at Coachella this year and the Kings Of Leon.

Some other pretty big names are on the list including Weezer, Dave Matthews Band and OK Go. It has also been made public that The Flaming Lips will be doing a late-night performance of “Dark Side Of The Moon” with Stardeath and White Dwarfs. This year will also be a major event for fans of electronic music with acts such as LCD Soundsystem, Bassnectar, and Deadmau5.
