Wonderful thread! So I guess I will throw my two cents in also. I agree with a lot mentioned, especially Meshuggah, Corrosion of Conformity, and Down. Oooh, and Soilwork! pleeeease! Killswitch would be good too, and I'd love to see Rob Zombie. Also, I think Dethklok would be greatly entertaining! I think they should have had them there for the Adult Swim ragbag of jollification thing this year, that would have been perfect. I didn't get to spend a lot of time around there actually, where any of the characters featured there?

One of the games was a Dethklok themed 'Wheel of Death'
Since Isis is done and gone, which is a shame because I really, really enjoyed their show, Bonnaroo should try and get Neurosis. When I saw them last year, it was so heavy I had to sit down sometimes to take a rest from the beating I was getting from the sound. Plus their light and video show was out of this world.

^agreed. I'm glad I got to see Isis if only just the once. I haven't seen Neurosis but I've listened a little and would definitely check them out on the farm.
others i wouldn't mind (that would fit on the farm): Godflesh, Devin Townsend, Opeth, Sleep, Converge, Tombs, Boris, Pelican, Torche(or even better, Floor), Harvey Milk, Cynic, Dysrhythmia.
not to hate on anyone butI've seen Devin townsendcome up a few times and I just would not enjoy him at Roo. I absolutely love SYL but I think his solo stuff comes off as sort of a playschool "my first prog-metal band." Some broad and interesting stuff but not nearly enough to keep my attention for a whole set.
Acrassicauda would be an interesting get for Bonnaroo. They could be '11's version of Tinariwen.
For those not familiar with them, they're the first metal band from Iraq and were featured in the documentary Heavy Metal in Baghdad. Pretty interesting movie and a decent band.

BTmothafuckinBAM! I'd fuckin' flip if that happened!
Aside from them, I'd love to see: DethKlok Animals as Leaders Converge The Fall of Troy (but I think they just broke up) Meshugga Opeth HORSE the band Deftones
apparently A Perfect Cirlce is reuniting, for anyone interested in that.
While I do like APC a lot, it isn't metal.
It could compliment a metal band on a stage though. Like how there were all those punk-ish bands on Sunday on... whatever stage Dropkick Murphys were on. I keep confusing This for That, and the entire weekend kept thinking of them as "place I saw Steve Martin" or "place I saw Jeff Beck"
