Girl Talk will kill it, Bassnectar will be amazing. But how is this being judged? Most people dancing non stop? Largest amount of people dancing at any given time during the set? Or merely personal preference? Judging by how every other topic goes on here I am guessing the latter.) For me I have a feeling Big Boi have the largest number of "dancers" in attendance.
For non electronic act I'm hoping MMJ plays Touch me Im going to scream pt2.
First time I ever heard them was at voodoo fest after deadmau5 and we walked up hearing that and I was dancing just as much as I was at mau5. I don't know how the rest of their stuff is for dancing but I'm really hoping to hear that.

The second wave release usually contains a number of electronic acts so i thinks its a bit premature. Nobody has mention Bootsy Collins or Dr John, both super funky. Dr john 2006 the Night Tripper! He's gonna bring an entirely unique show too
I am gonna go with STS9. I am really hoping they get Which Stage from 12:30am - 2:30am Saturday Night / Sunday Morning Shit will be epic.
This is what I am calling for late night acts: SCI - Friday LN Which 11:30pm - 2:00am MMJ - Friday LN What 2:00am - Dawn STS9 - Saturday LN Which 12:30am - 2:30am Primus - Saturday LN What 2:30am - Dawn
LN Tent Acts will be: Bassnectar Girl Talk Pretty Lights Big Boi Dr John Dr John / Dan Auerbach Superjam Opeth Black Star (when added) another 4 acts.
It all depends on what your definition of a "Dance Party" is. Girl Talk relies on convoluted mashups predesigned for undeveloped ears who only know what is familiar to make them dance (sorry, I'm being way too harsh, but i'm not a fan of Girl Talk), Bassnectar was really awesome last year, and I really don't think he fits into the dubstep category because his samples are too varied to generalize like that, Pretty Lights I don't really know too much about...I missed him in 09 to see Paul Oakenfold. I hear Pretty Lights is really awesome, so I'll try to check them out this year.
Honestly the biggest dance party Bonnaroo has ever had was last year's Lunar Stage in general...so I hope they bring that back this year, and if they don't, at least bring in a raging classic electronic artist like Sasha, Oakenfold, Tiesto, etc.

Hello, my loves. I've missed you. ANYWAY, in terms of danciest, I've gotta say that I just saw !!! this week, and HOLY CRAP SO DANCEY. Also the lead singer has the funkiest moves out of any funky mover.
Also related: Big Boi is sooo dancey. How do you not bust out the moves when you hear "So Fresh, So Clean"?? Relateder: This is me dancing on stage with Big Boi. I'm the white girl in the purple on the right with no movez.
I will only admit to this to anonymous message board folks.
^^^^ Nice! That is what's up. Sir Lucious Leftfoot: The Son of Chico is a great album. So you'll definitely see me at the show laying down the "Jury-Step". The no moves disclaimer might still apply.
Im thinking STS9. I do love Girl Talk but I've seen him a lot over the past few years and his crowd has changed a lot. Idk what it will be like at roo but the first couple times i saw him a few years ago it was a good crowd everyone was having a good time and getting along and looking out for each other. past few times more recently its been a lot of real dumb kids, juiced up guidos, and drunks looking for fights. of course i live in jersey so thats pretty much 90% of our population

Well that sounds terrible. Juiced up guidos!? Well, I saw Pretty Lights last night and it was nothing but the dirty Irish and Catholics. Papist hogwash I tell you.
ughh I'm so sick of girltalk, but I have to admit it will be a nonstop dance party, that I hope coincides at the same time assomeone else I'd like to see. I think STS9 and bassnectar will be some fun sets to get down to. definetely.
I've seen Girl Talk. They closed down a street in downtown Nashville last Halloween for him. It was nuts! But I also feel as though once was enough. I'm kind of hoping for a good conflict here as well. Personally, I can't wait for Ratatat, PL and Explosions in the Sky. Hopefully, they will all rage!
"Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of Fuel. Sentimental people call it Inspiration, but what they really mean is Fuel. I have always needed Fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio." -Hunter S. Thompson

that show was weaksauce. they had like 2k watts of subs for what 2,000 people? I had seen girl talk a few times before that and I didn't remember his mash-ups being that quick... seems like he spent 11 seconds on each song, and a lot of his "transitions" were clunky and wtf-ish.
granted, it was halloween, so it isn't hard to get a party rockin, but the overall vibe IMO, was meh, and the PA was a joke (not really his fault).

I think the biggest dance party will be Girl Talk, no question.
My personal biggest dance party will be Pretty lights.... assuming I can make it to his set. I quackin love him but I've seen him 3 times and depending on the conflict, wouldn't be able to justify seeing him over Ratatat, Big Boi, or Gogol if he were up against any of them.
