I saw REM on their last tour and it was pretty disappointing.
I'd be all for them reuniting and headlining Roo, but I don't think getting an REM reunion show plays out as well in reality as it does on paper.
The accelerate tour? One of their last US shows was in atlanta and they brought out Johnny Marr for the encore and it kicked ass. They didn't "play the hits" on that tour so if you were looking for losing my religion or man on the moon, yeah I could see it being disappointing.
That being said, Peter buck as recently as last year said a reunion wasn't happening and he seems to be having fun producing and jamming with Corin tucker.
I'd say odds are better for an oasis renion, they seem more responsive to the "dumptrucks of cash" method of reuniting bands.
But I think we should add REM, talking heads, and oasis reunions to the pile with "Daft Punk LN!!" of asinine suggestion.
I could see Meg hating Jack and just not being public about it.
Yup. And even if she doesn't, last word from Jack was that they're not on speaking terms. If Meg wasn't comfortable with the spotlight they were in before, I can't imagine she'd want to do a big reunion, and I don't think I see Jack being interested in going back to that partnership

It very well may have been the accelerate tour - I honestly don't remember.
I was a huuuuuuge REM fan ~10-15 years ago and that show sorta brought me back down to earth on'em. And I agree, I don't see them getting back together based on their continued, unwavering stance that they are done. I'd argue they were done after Monster and I wouldn't be surprised if they'd agree.
They are sounding better than ever on the current tour and the setlist has been killer. However, I HIGHLY doubt they'll play Bonnaroo. It'd be amazing but it just doesn't seem like an act they'd book, DM seems much more in line with the GV fests (Coachella, Pano, FYF).

Is there gonna be a lineup pool again this year? Just curious because I know last year they were due 10/31.. but I also know that interest seems to have plummeted haha

Unless I'm mistaken, the lineup pool happened last year and the lineup came and went without the person running it ever tallying the results. *ahem* Delicious Meatball Sub
