[alliebubba123]

MMJ 2008, The Swell Season 2008, LCD soundsystem 2010, Radiohead 2006. sorry had to do 4

[SuperCAM?]

Way too many shows to choose from. Gonna go with ones that have stood the test of time in my mind

1. Robert Randolph & Family Band w/Luther Dickinson - 2004 Late Night
2. Widespread Panic w/Bob Weir, Herbie Hancock, Dickinson Brothers, Randolph, and Bruce Hampton - 2005 2nd show
3. Galactic 2005 (Mardi Gras Bash) or Galactic 2007 (w/ Hip Hop Artists)

Honarable Mention: Stevie Wonder, Trombone Shorty, Jay Z, Black Keys (2010), Rodrigo y Gabriela, Beastie Boys (2009), Robert Randolph, Derek Trucks (2008), North Mississippi Allstars (2004), The Word (2005)

Yeah, you said name 3 and I named 15. Deal with it ;D

*This is harder than choosing which child is your favorite, especially when you have no children

[icantenough]

Manu chao
Buckethead and bernie
Jay-z

All 3 shows I was walking away from until someone convinced me it was going to be an amazing show. If you didn't see Manu chao at roo, you missed the greatest show ever held at the which stage... And as a huge flips fan that still has laser pointers that is saying a lot

[amyj315]

Oh yeah, the Raconteurs show was fantastic. I want to add that one to my tie for 3rd. I can't remember if it was 2008 or 2009.

I also thoroughly enjoyed the Local Natives in 2010.

[Del Griffith]

MIA (2008)

Sasha and Digweed (2007)

Santigold (2009)

[Bishop]

[jack324]

It's really hard to narrow it down, and I've only been to two Roos so far. This time next week, it will be harder still.

1. MIA 2008
2. Pearl Jam 2008
3. Public Enemy 2009 (my condolences to those of you who were at Phish)



*My Morning Jacket '08 would be #1, but I only saw ~1:20 of that show, so I don't feel right saying I "saw" it.

PE was awesome in 09, but I did hate missing Femi Kuti... the first 20 or so minutes of that show was awesome, I had a tough time leaving.

He left off the best surprise set I heard about the other day from my source- The Beatles will be playing this year...all 4 of them. You read that right.

1. Jay-Z 2010
2. Kings of Leon 2010 (yes i'm serious)
3. Mumford and Sons 2010

OK last year was my first time. Sue me

[Bishop]

I still can't decide what my top show from '10 was... it's still between Jimmy Cliff and Jeff Beck.

[Funky Munky]

Last year was my first but I'll go with:

Jay-Z
The Flips
John Prine

I didn't think back to hard but I was really excited to see the Lips and Prine, they didn't disappoint. I wasn't expecting much out of Jay-Z and was blown away.
