Someone on the Bonnaroo subreddit offered a plausible guess that hasn't been mentioned here: TV On The Radio.
Here's my adaption of this person's perspective. The first clue is obviously a picture of a mountain (and most likely does not represent a specific mountain). The consensus opinion on the second clue seems to be that the lunchbox signifies a returning artist. Return to Cookie Mountain is TV On The Radio's breakout album and arguably their most critically acclaimed to date. Lastly, the radio clue, "Welcome to Springfield", appears to be a reference to the The Simpsons. You could make the case that Bonnaroo is literally referencing television (The Simpsons) on the radio (Roo Radio). Any thoughts?
that was me and I got downvoted to hell! You took it a few steps further and you're doing God's work.

Was it you who also proposed the cookie connection? The more I think about it, the more it makes sense. Lunchboxes are often used by children, and cookies are common snack that children bring with them to school (and where else would they store the cookies but in a lunchbox?).
This is probably gonna be one that makes plenty of sense, it just isn't right now - potentially because it's an artist we wouldn't think of being there this year. I remember that Seasick Steve clue being a pain last year too.
First album was called High Top Mountain, his last name obviously fits the radio clue. Not sure how the Bonnaroo lunchbox fits in though.
You know? Some of us were leading towards that but I haven't seen this mentioned. I just happened to look up his albums. One has this cosmic design in the shape of a turtle and the first track is "Turtles All the Way Down." So you could fit it with the "turtles"from the second day in The 12 Days of Christmas. If you really had to. haha
It would at least add another piece of evidence if we can figure out this stupid lunch box one way or the other. I'm starting to think they added it because they are just assholes.
