if it's meal, perfect end= dessert, if it's misspelled = desert
I searched and there's a new age band called Desert Wind though it doesn't sound like something that would be at bonnaroo. Still thought the wind part was amusing given the mill part of the clue (windmill). Oh well back to banging my head against the google.

And just to keep thinking other things, I'm thinking Spanish since you guys said he almost read it in a Spanish accent.
meal in Spanish would be "comida" (it's the same as the word for food) breakfast is desayuno lunch is almuerzo dinner is cena
All I can get from there is that if you misspell "almuerzo" as "almuerto" then the end of it would be "muerto"...or "dead." But um, yeah. (I'm going to regret mentioning THAT one....)

What would "dead" have to do with Bonnaroo. I just can't connect the dots...

Also Mil in spanish is for 1000 and is pronounced meal. Like dos mil is 2000

Yeah, mil as in Spanish for a thousand was my first thought upon reading the clue.
In that case, a misspelled mil would probably be a mill, and the difference between the two would be that in mil there's no L and...no L? AUGH MAKE IT STOP.
A perfect end to a perfect meal is a good dessert.
is this the clue?
It is "A perfect finish to a misspelled mill" as I understand it.
A misspelled Mill could still be Mil, taking into account all the spanish overtones, which would make the correct spelling (mil in spanish), sound like meal. So the revised clue would read "A perfect finish to a meal". I think Cake is still the strongest guess so far.
Bonnaroo's twitter feed also had this: Time for you all to step up your clue-cracking game. Today I give you this -- 'The warmest monkey and offspring' -- Stay tuned for more.
I grew up worshipping Rock and Roll like a religion. I know its shortcomings and strengths but have loved it unconditionally all the same since I was eight-years old. I ran away and joined the circus and honestly, I'm still as obsessed as I was as a boy. I'm not a kid anymore but I still remember how it felt and it doesn't really feel all that different to me now.

could a perfect ending be a SIESTA ?? (spanish themed)
Meal and mill are homonyms, if you emphasize the "i" in mill like you would the "ea" in meal. Just as hearing "monkey" in the other clue led us to the Monkees. Since the clue was spoken with an accent, I think that's entirely possible.
