Unfortunately, it seemed doomed due to location issues. Although I imagine Lockn' and Peach haven't helped.
On the plus side, I'm now planning on being at MPP July 9th and 10th.

I'll admit, it took me a while to get in to them, but I'm now a huge advocate of MMJ.
There really is something for everybody with MMJ. Evil Urges was the album that got me hooked, but it seems like everyone starts somewhere different. In other words, do not dismiss them if you don't like the first few songs you hear. If you're completely unfamiliar, I suppose the "hits" to start with would be Mahgeetah, One Big Holiday, Wordless Chorus, Off the Record . . . all great tunes, but there is much, much more to this band.
Do you like classic rock? Of course you do - try Aluminum Park, Outta My System, and I'm Amazed.
Are you a slow crooner? Check out Wonderful (The Way I Feel), I Will Sing You Songs, and I Think I'm Going to Hell.
Do you occasionally get weird? Perhaps more than just occasionally? I do and I recommend Victory Dance, Highly Suspicious, and Holdin' on to Black Metal.

I totally agree with you, but I don't want people to freak-out and think that this festival is going to blow-up as a result of Phish's presence. I think ticket sales will be stronger out the gate, but it's not like Lockn is going to double in size. We will likely see a slight increase in attendance; but (hopefully) it results in the elimination of Daywalkers, with the in-venue population balancing out to feel comparable to previous years.

I don't know what kind of wacky clock Sneake ordered from the clock store, but I swear I had to input July 28th to get the countdown right.

Of course, Phish certainly didn't hurt.

I think I fixed the countdown, but I'm not at a desktop, so I can't see it. It's possible I made it worse. If it's still wrong, let me know and I'll fix it when I get home.

Me too, man. I thought everyone recognized Twiddle as a joke, but somehow it turned real ...
Also, feel free to start threads for each individual band. Giving each band their own thread tends to keep the discussions focused.

Speaking solely for my own personal tastes, I am incredibly excited about this lineup.
Can't believe they landed Phish. I mean, I can believe it, but I'm still surprised by it. Their presence will definitely change the dynamic of the festival (more on that in another thread), but I think it is a positive for both this year and the future. Most people in the jam-community already have an opinion one way or the other on Phish, and I realize I can't sway their detractors. But I must point out that Phish has been on fire for the last 18 months or so. They've arguably hit a second high-water mark for their careers and I'm happy to catch any show I can while they are on this wave.
I've advocated for My Morning Jacket in years past and I genuinely think they are the perfect band for this festival. My Morning Jacket is one of the best live bands on the planet right now. Saw 'em three times last year, all kick-ass shows. They combine elements of classic rock with folk and jam influences to form a blissful, high-energy, love-inducing sound. If you are unfamiliar with them, I highly recommend you give them an honest listen. Jim James is a mystical man.
I'm not crazy about Ween as a "Headliner," but I get it. Their recent shows in Colorado were a big deal and they were very well received. Ween is a great band, if even they aren't my cup of tea. Really excited by the collaboration potential with Phish . . . perhaps "Roses Are Free" serves as the "multi-stage jam" vehicle that was Peter Shapiro teased when Lockn' was founded.
Holy Balls this undercard.
If we didn't have Phish and Jacket, I'd still be incredibly stoked on this rest of this lineup.
Veteran favorites Umphrey's, CRB, and TTB are back, which is awesome news in and of itself.
Two latenight shows from JRAD?! Two?! Someone will be carrying be back to the tent on at least one of those nights.
I am always in on Keller. Hopefully they keep the tradition of "wake-up with K-Dub" going in 2016.
Galactic and Lettuce amplify the funk factor, and it is proven scientific fact that you cannot have too much funk.
Speaking of funk, do not sleep on Vulfpeck. Highly, highly recommended.
If they didn't add another band to this festival, I'd be totally happy with the lineup as it is. Of course, we know that there is plenty more to come. I'm looking forward to seeing what else they've got in the works here.
Honestly, I don't see Dead & Co. in the cards. Their tour ends well before Lockn' and I wouldn't be shocked to find out that Bonnaroo got them on some sort of festival-exclusive contract. Moreover, Peter Shapiro hasn't been involved in the promotion of their gigs. I think a Phil and Friends set is much more likely. Of course, I'd love to be wrong.
