So
NME's Web site is announcing one of the Bonnaroo headliners at midnight EST, and according to their claims said headliner is going to be surprising! After
yesterday's torrent of riddles and the fact that every clue could be guessed semi-correctly by plugging in the name of
any band that appeals to liberal-arts college students—from Dispatch to Metallica to Panda Bear to Hall and Oates—the only "surprise" headliner I can think of at this point is the original lineup of Color Me Badd. Of course, this
is the
NME we're talking about, so that surprise will probably wind up being a reuniting relic. Only in this case it'll be Menswe@r. [
