The leaked image above is currently going viral and is by no means any kind of official Bonnaroo 2012 lineup confirmation. (Obvs.)

But whaddaya think? Real or fake?

I think those aren't the fonts Bonnaroo would use. Fer serious. I dig the art though

I think it is fake since it says Phish has two shows they have never specified that before on their posters.

Where are the comedians? Plus that color scheme looks very unprofessional. I say it's a fake.

Actually, NICOLE you're dead wrong! The 2009 Bonnaroo poster reads "Phish(2 shows)". The poster is correct...the lineup sucks...except radiohead

@gold Not only was the graphic design better then, so were the artists. I'm going to stop there, though, lest I begin to sound like Chark.

A couple bands listed have not received offers so this is not 100% accurate at least, but some bands listed are confirmed.

Must have been a sale on some very poor ink colors!

Check over at the Country Life section to watch a video of an "artist in action" creating a piece of art-work to be used to make one band's concert posters. He gets my vote to create a poster for Bonnaroo. I ain't got any interest about Bonnarro beyond that since I ain't going (period)

I feel like they just clipped previous bands n made a background. Looks good tho

With the confirmations I have, this is NOT the poster.

This image originated on Inforoo.org by a dude named, Balsalm. He apparently took Bonnaroo's 2012 color scheme and graphics (see bonnaroo.com) and had some fun with Photoshop. Of course, he took the common artists rumored to be on the bill for 2012, and added some additional for the surprise effect. He later posted a message saying, “one of my friends posted a link on facebook to one of the music sites that picked this up. that was cool haha. its crazy how fast things can spread these days. this was fun.”

It's likely many of these artists are accurate but it's safe to say this is a BS image.

I'd take this lineup over last year's. Still holding out for somebody other than the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Especially somebody with a guitar that ejaculates and a predilection for purple.

12 SONGS is great, but it's no SAIL AWAY. I suggest a compromise: NILSSON SINGS NEWMAN.

The above poster was created by a member of the Inforoo board. It is a fake....BUT last night the real Bonnaroo 2012 poster apparently leaked. Radiohead, Phish, Prince and Red Hot Chili Pepper are headlining. Also on the bill: Jack White, The Shins, Gov't Mule, Umphrey's McGee, Dawes, Bon Iver, Mogwai, many more. See the poster with the full line-up at http://www.facebook.com/TheFutureHeart/pos….
