Bonnaroo secret show: Cage the Elephant to surprise campground?

If scores of bands and lots of new campground experiences weren't enough, how about a surprise concert from Cage the Elephant to kick off Bonnaroo?

Rumors were circulating Thursday about a secret show by the Grammy-winning rock outfit, and the band's Instagram page seemed to indicate that something was up:

Lead singer Matt Shultz is already involved in the 'Roo activities this year as the creative force behind the "Happy Roo Day!" barn at Plaza 9. Shultz and bandmate Nick Bockrath are also slated to take part in the Bonnaroo SuperJam this year, which will be a tribute to Tom Petty.
