U2 playing Joshua Tree would be amazing. I grew up with my dad playing it in the car. I'm sure others would rather have a different old white headliner but that would be amazing for me.
So just pretending this U2 thing is credible, they could be playing all of Joshua Tree as a "30th anniversary", but they won't stick it on the poster next to their name.
They could do a lot worse than U2. Hearing RHCP getting thrown about, even in the vaguest of terms, worries me. Their 2012 set was not very good. Bad? Eh, maybe not, but just kinda sloppy and definitely not something than needs to be repeated at Roo.
A top line of RHCP - Kings of Leon - Chance the Rapper absolutely terrifies me, and I'm pretty sure that'd be the death of Roo. I love Chance, but I don't wanna see another Kendrick booking and get someone headlining on the cheap that really doesn't have the backlog to earn that status. He should be headlining fests like Okee and Hangout, not Roo/Coach/Lolla next summer.
The only worse top line than that would have Widespread Panic shoehorned in the #3 spot.

I think U2 would be pretty cool but they get them and advertise it as them playing Joshua Tree and they missed out on Brian Wilson playing Pet Sounds, Im going to be annoyed
If LiveNation is booking U2 for their first ever U.S. festival show, it probably won't be for a festival that sold 45k tickets last year.
I mean you have to imagine they don't just want to write off their investment. And if they could get U2 to do Roo and Lolla it would seem even more plausible.
What's the most expensive headliner that Roo has ever gotten and how much were they? I'm assuming Macca, but you would have to think that U2 would blow his price tag out of the water. Something to keep in mind.

I want Bonnaroo's lineup to be good enough to sustain them and jumpstart their return to being a great festival, but not good enough for me to want to attend this year.

idk if they're the rarest but they did get The Police way back, and i dont think ive ever heard of them ever playing any other fests. so going off of that rarity i would assume they were expensive.

If they don't put out their new album next year and hit up a bunch of festivals next summer, I'll be shocked. Whether Bonnaroo is one of those festivals is obviously up in the air. But it's time for them to come back.
So do I. I even thought the new album had a couple decent tracks. As long as the rest of the line up is good, I'd be a-okay with U2. U2 - Arcade Fire - The Weeknd - Chance the Rapper

Y'all who think U2 would suck as a HL are dumb. I helped set up one of their claw-finger shows and got to see the show (fer free sure) and it was awesome! They played mostly the hits and overall had good showmanship.

There you go
Even better, I like Major Lazer. Throw The 1975 in there too and I'm even happier.
