Yea can't wait for his show will definitely be there.
Roo has added a marley each year for the past 3 years now i believe. Stephen this year, Ziggy last and Damien before that. Maybe next year we could get like a Marley brothers show for an act

im happy to see a marley added although i dont know alout about stephen(know more about ziggy and damien). does stephen play alot of his dads music during his sets?
i will see his show for sure, also can u recommend some of his music for me to check out before i go to the farm?
Stephen came out fairly recently with his first solo album.... Mind Control. He does play some of his father's tracks during his sets, and is SPOT ON. He sounds a lot like Bob. If I remember correctly, he did Buffalo Soldier (AWESOME), and No Woman No Cry at Lolla.

He definitely sounds like his dad more than any of his brothers do. I like his album, and as dudezer already mentioned- Stephen is a fantastic producer and a talented musician. Are you going to try to get an interview with him Moe?

Sweet, I loved your Ziggy interview so it would be cool to hear you interview Stephen. I'm also hoping Stephen does an artist signing like Ziggy did last year, I would really like to meet him. I'm really looking forward to Stephen's set though, Ziggy was incredible last year. I'm just glad Bonnaroo booked a Marley- the lineup didn't seem complete without of of them.

Great to see some reggae added and I couldn't be happier about the choice. I dug Damian and Ziggy in 06 and 07. Hope to hear "Hey Baby" just can't get enough of that song. Of course that means for we need Mos Def on the next round of additions... but as of right now I think this is a big plus to the lineup.

For me personally, this is the best addition yet. I think both rounds of additions were strong, but nothing that impacted me . . . this being the exception.

At Coachella last year, it was about 1/3 Bob Marley songs. He opened with Roots, Rock, Reggae and closed with Exodus. During the set he also played Buffalo Soldier, Slave Driver and Could You Be Loved. It was an awesome show. He looks, sounds and has the vibe of his father.

i've seen Damien Marley 2 or 3 times now...he's great on stage as well, and most of the songs are his dad's. They even came out for the encore of Ben Harper's show and played "Get Up, Stand Up".
