This Guy! Although I've kinda grown out of them. I listened to them waaay to much in middle school to not be pumped for this. I'll be in the field singin' along to The General and Elias without a doubt.

That would be incredible, but I think they'll more than likely get a daytime Which spot! Either way, I'll be having a heaping helping of nostalgia! Can't wait!

Can't wait for this. Probably one of the shows I'm most looking forward to (after Radiohead, Phish, and the Beach Boys), especially if it gets that LN Which. I could see it either being them or the Roots, both of which could end up legendary (I think Alice Cooper is the only other act that could do LN Which, but don't we usually have one jam-friendly LN Which? with Skrillex taking the other LN Which slot, I think Dispatch and Roots will get it over Cooper).
2012 shows: 3/23 - The Men 4/9 - Of Monsters & Men 4/21 - Bassnectar 5/2 - Shpongle 5/22 - Jack White 6/1 - tUnE-yArDs 6/7-6/10 - Bonnaroo 2012 6/18 - Destroyer 6/20 - The Tallest Man On Earth 6/23-6/24 - Governor's Ball
I agree that it's probably down to the Roots, Skrillex, and Dispatch for the late night Which spots. Skrillex seems pretty much guaranteed one of them. That leaves the Roots or Dispatch with the other.

This is a huge show for me. I never thought I'd get to see them. 110,000 people came to their "final show" in Boston. They definitely need a choice spot for Roo.

Dispatch is pretty much as big as an indie band can get.
Arcade Fire...
i dont know that arcade fire could bring in 110,000 for a show. a more correct statement might of been "Dispatch was pretty much as big as an indie band could get". before they went their separate ways they were huge.

just what i was about to say... Dispatch has quite a cult following, though. but Arcade Fire are in my top 5 live bands, out of the 400+ bands I've seen.

I agree. Arcade Fire are bigger than Dispatch right NOW, but idk if they are as big as Dispatch WAS.
I am really excited to see them specifically AT Bonnaroo. I'm from NH and have been seeing these guys since the late 90s. I've been at shows for $4 at Keene State College with 75 people, I've been 7 rows back for their Last Distpach @ the Hatch shell, all 3 nights for Zimbabwe, and the list goes on and on. They are an amazing band and I am so excited to see one of my all time favorite bands at my all time favorite place!!!!!
I was lying in a burned out basement With the full moon in my eyes. I was hoping for replacement When the sun burst thru the sky. There was a band playing in my head And I felt like getting high.

hard to tell. not sure what the current tour will be like, but i know last year dispatch had very limited dates. i know they played red rocks, not sure what else.

They played the Bryce Jordan Center, which had a pretty decent sized arena capacity.

The Last Dispatch - The band performed a free concert at the Hatch Shell in Boston. It was estimated that the turnout would only be between 10,000 and 30,000 people. In the end, the crowd grew to reach a reported 110,000 fans, and resulted in the closing of Storrow Drive...

They're kind of a big deal...
Key word: Free. That's what's kind of a big deal...

People came from all over the world to see this concert.

I used to listen to them all the time. Totally looking forward to this!
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
