Sales/Success: I think this would sell well but not sell out. I don’t know, feels a bit like a weaker Lollopalooza/ACL lineup with a couple of jam bands.
Thursday • Seems okay. Ana Tijoux, Orville Peck, and SiR for sure don’t belong on Thursday. • Orville Peck is a perfect pick
Friday • Good balance of genres • Not much I care about besides J Balvin and James Blake • I think Dua Lipa/J Balvin works as a headlining duo (Not very Bonnaroo, but good and appropriately sized). Skrillex has no business playing the What and being billed above J Balvin
Saturday • Good balance of genres again • Too many acts this day that just suck • I like the Diana Ross -> Jay Z run, but I think Jay suffers from being less relevant than the last time he headlined Bonnaroo • James Blake superjam makes no sense to me • Justice LN Which would be amazing.
Sunday • The What Stage on this day feels extremely Bonnaroo, even though Chris Stapleton is way too big for that spot. • Nothing very exciting but feels realistic.
Sales/Success: I think this would sell alright, but not sell out. I don't think I would attend unless I still lived close.
Thursday: • Good day. A few acts seem out of place (Cordae, Tourist, Bas) but aside from that seems like you nailed it.
Friday: • Really good balance of genres, lots of good and realistic acts. • Unnecessary return for Ludacris, Tanya Tagaq, and Belle and Sebastian • King Gizz is a perfect pick, long as fuck set on the Which is the perfect placement • Your Other stage is pretty terrible • On the scale of Realism vs Quality, Harry Styles as a sub (w/ Gaga as a pop headliner) is a net negative for your lineup. Doesn’t fit Roo and would be so expensive • Honestly Childish Gambino might be my least favorite headliner pick for this draft. There’s no scenario in which he plays Bonnaroo back to back years, and he’s not even very good.
Saturday • London Grammar and Bastille, disgusting. • IDGAF that FKA Twigs is too small to pre-headline she deserves the bump and the What Stage sound • I feel like Lady Gaga -> Slowdive looks dope on paper but I left both of those shows early when I saw them. Not sure Slowdive draws at Bonnaroo. Lady Gaga of course would be a popular headliner • I saw Roisin Murphy at Coachella and there were maybe 50 people in the tent. Unrealistic/Unnecessary booking. • Tierra Whack being your only rapper all day and conflicting with FKA Twigs is lame • Flylo return to Bonnaroo, absolutely! Was there any thought put into whether to bill it as Flying Lotus 3D? Just curious.
Sunday • Hard to nitpick this day, you guys pretty much nailed the undercard • I don’t see a reason for The xx to come back, I don’t even know if they’re active • Arcade Fire is a personal favorite who I somehow still haven’t see live, so you got me with this one, but I don’t think they would move tickets in 2021 • I wanted to book the SURVIVE guys doing the Stranger Things soundtrack, but I had no idea where that could go. I kinda love them closing the Other. It’s kind of a hilarious “fuck you” to all the kids that take their unfinished drugs on Sunday afternoon • I had no idea what Nick Mason’s Saucerful of Secrets was, but I freaking love that pick after looking into it.

Which Ditch Bridge Troll Doesn't Want This
King T and JTR edge over DanBob and Gocatsnu with better headliners. Both seem relatively equally realistic imo
I would rather go to Jortles and Todd's but DE and WIPP played more to the spirit of the game, even if i think their undercard is pushing it at times. DE and WIPP win
Fearandparanoia/PD/emoney tie with Pepe and Nathan. Both played well within the rules and feel very bonnaroo to me.
BingRummy wins. Probably my favorite lineup that is within reason of Roo. Probably won't vote this in the final round though
Frazzledrip has the slight advantage even though I think both have a way to stacked uppercards
MBV is never playing Roo but Team Jesus still wins for me
When I saw MonieBear's lineup I considered just casting my vote for them because I thought it was one of the best. Then I saw Jaz and Fred's lineup and honestly they are both probably the best in this game. Gonna give the slightest of edges possible to Monie Bear because I think they perfectly nailed how I feel when I usually look at a Bonnaroo lineup - which is "wow there are a couple acts I really want to see but not enough for me to pay $400 and drive to the middle of Tennessee in the sweatiest month of the year.

"is that room physical or another Sufjan song title?"
the next great Sufjan song title
I'd like to note that I am currently listening to C&L because this conversation put me in the mood lolololol.
No dark room & blankets this time round, though--since am working, gotta keep the lights on and the blankets at bay lest I get too comfy and fall into a Sufjan induced slumber before my work day concludes.

Am confused about a couple of your points...ours is your fave when taking into account quality + realism but you've already decided you won't vote for it in the end?
And re: MonieBear/JazFred, you said they're both two of your fave lineups, but then somehow you describe MonieBear's as "not enough for me to pay the $400 and drive there"...lol, what?

My favorite lineup that I think is realistic, not as realistic as MonieBear’s or JazFred’s. I’m just not a Roo guy. Last lineup I really really wanted to go to was 2015 so I think those played to that the most
