From naming stages and tents Which, What, This, That, and Other so that asking for directions can’t help but become a stoned Abbot & Costello routine, to unveiling its lineup via a protracted runup of internet-published “clues,” to just generally seeing what happens when hipsters and hippies are forced to be unshowered together on a farm for three days, Bonnaroo’s always run their festival with an eye toward having fun with the form and taking the piss — while also being the most high profile of the “totally immersive” fests (case in point: seeing Kanye at 5AM, which would happen nowhere else on earth). This year, though, the fest is going even further with having fun with the form or the protracted-lineup-reveal situation and the etc.: Bonnaroo’s announcing their lineup over a twelve hour period today, on MySpace and Twitter, from 12PM to 12AM. Neat! I mean, if you like your lineups piecemeal, this is great news. You might even want to buy tickets the second they go on sale, at noon today. If you like knowing who is playing all at once, come back tonight. Either way we’ll be updating this post with the lineup as it’s announced.

Depeche Mode were joined by former band member Alan Wilder at a one-off show at London’s Royal Albert Hall last night (February 17) for the Teenage Cancer Trust.
The keyboardist and drummer made his first appearance with the group since he quit nearly 14 years ago, playing the piano on encore-opener ‘Somebody’.
Depeche Mode performed 20 tracks from their back catalogue, including their classic hits ‘Enjoy The Silence’, ‘Personal Jesus’ and ‘I Feel You’.
Watch footage of the gig by clicking below.
Wilder quit the band on his birthday in June 1995 “due to increasing dissatisfaction with the internal relations and working practices of the group”.
Noel Gallagher, Arctic Monkeys and Them Crooked Vultures are among the acts set to play Teenage Cancer Trust gigs at the venue soon.

Cosmogramma, the Thom Yorke-abetted new album from West Coast abstract bass music king Flying Lotus, is set for release May 4 in the U.S. (and May 3 in the UK) on Warp. And up above, you can hear the awesomely titled “Computer Face//Pure Being”, the first album track that FlyLo has let us hear.
With the album release still a few months off, though, FlyLo has to do something to fill up his calendar, so he’s going on tour. He’ll spend the first half of March hitting European venues, including London’s Fabric for a gigantic night showcasing his Brainfeeder label. Then, he’ll return to the U.S. in time for the Warp SXSW showcase, following that up with a quick North American tour and a date at Coachella. We’ve got all his dates below.
