i know what you mean, that wilco set from last year put me completely at peace with life, and i'm glad it was the last complete show i saw, i saw a bit of white stripes and panic, but just too tired at the end, that wilco show was the really the last memory of a show i have from bonnaroo...
During The Nightwatchman set, he played a really peaceful track called "Let Freedom Ring".
It may have been the green corn, it may have been the clear gel, but it was probably the people blowing bubbles, or vollying inflatable balls into the air, or hoola hooping, or throwing frisbees, or seeing the plumes of smoke coming from all areas of the crowd, or the leaves blowing in the wind, or the smiles i saw, or the beautiful weather...
But it really was one of the most tranquil moments i have ever had in my life to this day.
*i like coconuts, you can break them open they smell like ladies lyin in the sun** *Hell I don't even know where I am** *for now I must sit here and ponder the yonder: The herbivores did well cause their food didn't never run** *We listen, if it feels good We shake** *You made a big impression for a girl of your size, Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes.**

morello's set was another great one of the weekend, i think a lot of people weren't happy with it because he plays the acoustic guitar, and he wasn't playing rage songs on the electric, although he did cover guerrilla radio, i really loved when he played this land is your land, so personally i like morello better solo than with rage
Peaceful at Bonnaroo is being able to lay in the shade in the grass on a Sunday afternoon and sleep while listening to great music and you don't have tow orry that anyone is going to mess with you, steal your stuff or aggravate you!
Ziggy Marley's set was the most peaceful moment for me at Roo. It was a semi-religious experience. The first Marley that I've ever seen perform, and we were up in the pit, front and center. (What made it even better was the fact that I had a half hour with Ziggy in his tourbus right after he got off the stage with Ben Harper)
Second most peaceful moment(s) was waking up every morning and realizing that we had another awesome day ahead of us. The campgrounds had a foreboding feeling of the quiet before the storm!
I don't think anything compares to how good The Flaming lips made me feel after they were done. I think that's what gave me the energy to get through the few last days.
in the recent months when ive had a really negitive outlook on society and the country, never been to roo,this will be my first yr but judging by the kind of people on here,and how nice everyone is it reminds me that there are still alot of good people left
Being able to listen to and see something wild, and all the while being, yourself, at peace.
Being able to chow down on corn in the wide open with many many many other people who, quite frankly, don't give a damn.... or are even glad that you are
