Not sure if they'd come back so soon after tearing sh*t apart in 2011, but here's to hoping. New album (hilariously titled THR!!!ER) is out in late April, so hopefully they'll be touring behind it. I would lose my mind if they finally got the Bonnaroo LN they deserved. !!!>Cut Copy late night in a tent would be too perfect for words. Do it, AC.
That set ruled - it seemed like everyone was at the Mumford show so the small crowd made it even better. I would definitely welcome a return set this year.

Agreed. Everybody who was in that tent REALLY wanted to be there and it showed. One of the most fun and enthusiastic crowds I've ever been a part of, and Nic Offer and the girl (not sure what her name is, but she isn't in the band anymore) seemed to feed off that energy. Only other times I've ever been so sweaty at Bonnaroo was after Robyn's Sunday set in 2011 and LCD Soundsystem's late-night in 2010 (especially the latter).
!!!>Cut Copy LN on Saturday after the Mumbros bore our faces off. Dare to dream, everybody.
(1) Damon Albarn (2) Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds (3) King Khan & His Shrines (4) Ty Segall (5) Ms Lauryn Hill (6) Darkside (7) Kanye (8) Janelle Monae (9) Goat (10) Meshuggah.
Dude you don't even know. I think that set changed my life. I had hardly heard of them before, and somehow ended up right against the rail. I had never danced so hard in my life.
On the day !!! played in in 2011, my friends and I were sitting at our campsite planning the day out. After we said chk chk chk a few times, our neighbor hopped into our conversation:
"Hey, how do you say that band's name?"
"Which band?"
"The exclamation points."
"Oh haha, it's chk chk chk."
"Oh thanks, we've just been calling them [makes and absurdly excited face] all weekend."
They didn't know how to say the name so they would just back some exuberant face when talking about them in place of saying an actual word. It was hilarious and now that's what all my friends call them.

Mysteriously ends week before too. Think it could be the start of their festival circuit? I do.
God I hope so. Their 2011 set was arguably the most fun I've ever had at a show. Front rail, danced with Nic Offer, he wore my hat. It was legendary.
I would be back to see them in a heartbeat.
Was your hat the sailor hat?!?! I think it was a sailor hat at least, my memory is foggy, but I definitely remember him taking an audience member's hat and wearing it, can't believe it was you. That's awesome dude.
Philly is 13 hours from Manchester, TN according to Mapquest. Which makes me worried that if we get them they'll be a tent closer instead of a LN (think about it...if they finish their set at 3 AM, leave TN at 5 AM Saturday morning, they don't get to Philly until 6 PM Saturday night, which probably isn't enough time for them to set up...and I highly doubt !!! travels by plane). But I think it's more likely that we aren't getting them again.
If !!! is headlining that night in Philly they probably wouldn't need to set their shit up any earlier than 8 PM. Their setup isn't so crazy that they need to backline it before the show. It's possible, but not very likely IMO.
I saw their Sonic show in 2011 but was way too hot to enjoy it and had to sit down. I caught them a couple months later at OSL and they were so incredibly fun and danceable despite playing in the middle of the day. I'd love to catch them at a club show. Also, I actually like the idea of them playing an evening but not LN set. I think it'd be a great way to start revving me for the upcoming hours.

Then you were probably standing near me because I remember that! I saw them in 2008 before MIA and made sure to tell everyone to be there for their set in 2011. Always such a great time!

I wouldn't even put it as a dim hope. For it to happen, they would play nine days in a row then travel overnight to play a tenth show almost certainly when the sun is out.
