Sunday- Roger Waters and David Gilmour...Together, calling themselves whatever they want with or without wright... since this wont happen ill take either to close it out (preferably gilmour though.. im just more aof a gilmour floyd guy.. and ive already seen waters ) with a little white stripes or the verve before them for no other reason than those are two of my top "bands to see" that i havent crossed off my list yet!
richard wright died last year from cancer....a great musician lost RIP
uh...has U2 had albums worth a damn other than The Joshua Tree? Are you drinking the Kool-aid that Jim Jones passed out?
Maybe U2 has fooled others by living off of one good album but not me. They would EASILY be avoided at Bonnaroo. I might even invest in earplugs during their performance were they to come. Hate to get off the main topic but their are 12 step programs if you need help to rid yourself of the annoyance called U2.
Yeah, they do have other albums worth listening to. Aside from that they are phenomenal live performers. Sorry you don't like them but stop being rude to other people who do like them.

you should invest in a good pair of earplugs if you go to a lot of shows.
if you haven't seen them live, and you wouldn't give them a chance if they were at roo (they won't be), then you are a fairly close minded person. shame too, as they put on an amazing live show.
(i would agree with most who do not like their albums. they are weak compared to the live show...)
the rolling stones and u2 both have stadium shows that are so epic that seeing them on the farm might be like seeing a regular band unplugged. its kinda cool but in the end you feel like you only saw half of the show.
instead of getting bigger headliners, get a stronger under card. i liked that NIN had a late night spot this year. i hope next year they have at least one band that could headline a fest playing a late night set instead.
i didn't read this whole post...but i agree with many that it shouldn't get bigger but remember its beginnings...jam headliners: the dead, abb, and wsp..i would actually attend all headliners if that was the case, it was nice this year to see the boss but i really enjoy checking out up and coming bands more than the big name bands at 'roo

having one jam headliner is good, to remember the roots of bonnaroo, sure... but 3? bonnaroo is great now because of its diversity, in my opinion, and having 3 jam headliners would really be a disappointment given the variety of headliners from the past 4-5 years.

I would honestly listen for a few minutes just to see if I am correct that they are living off of one good album. Lots of bands have done this, so it is nothing new. As far as me being "rude", seriously, I have tried to listen to their albums and found they are terrible...but maybe they are better live performers (Ala Phish-great live,so-so albums)

^ I agree wholeheartedly. Having headline worthy acts play latenight on Friday and Saturday, having a stronger undercard throughout, and having one fairly big act headline Thursday would be awesome.
