Led Zeppelin Is Not Playing Bonnaroo (We Think)

Bonnaroo promotion company Superfly attempted to halt the weekend-long frenzy over the possibility of Led Zeppelin and Metallica possibly headlining next year's festival today, via a statement to Billboard:

"The rumors that are out there about the Bonnaroo 2008 headliners are inaccurate," Superfly Presents and A.C. Entertainment said in a statement released to Billboard.com. "We're very excited about the lineup that we're putting together for this year's festival. We'll be announcing the confirmed lineup toward the end of January/beginning of February."

Hmm... but that doesn't say flat-out "Led Zeppelin is not playing," now, does it! Oh, I hate denials that are more confusing than the rumors inspired by them.

Billboard: "There is a 1 in 100,000,000 chance that Zepp will play at 'Roo."

Me: "So, you're saying there is a chance! Yessssss!"
