Yeah I considered guessing them, but couldn't really connect it to the second part. And didn't want to get my hopes up.
APtBS seems like the best guess
A Place to Bury Strangers is by far the best guess.
I was just shooting the breeze. The second part fits because part of the killer's backstory was being buried alive in a mine. The movies imagery is full of mining gear and caves, etc. So it wouldn't have been that bad of a guess.
God dammit, I want it to be MBV so bad. But I can't do that to myself. I agree that APtBS is by far the best guess so far.
Carrie Underwood makes sense for the clue but would Bonnaroo really book her? I suppose they've booked similar acts before...

It's not Carrie Underwood. She plays arenas. She wouldn't be lower than 5th or 6th on the lineup but she would probably want to headline. She will be at the CMA fest. She puts on a good show though.

the strokes play arenas and they were 11th on the lineup
Honestly, I'm pretty sold on it being At The Drive In, as much as my realistic side tells me that they wouldn't play Bonnaroo. It answers the question too well.

how does at the drive in make sense? how do they fit with the "scary flick" part.
5.5/four tet, daphni b2b floating points, avalon emerson 5.12/neil young 5.19/mannequin pussy 5.21/serpentwithfeet 5.25/hozier 6.12-16/bonnaroo 6.28/goose 6.29/goose 9.17/the national + the war on drugs 9.23/sigur ros 9.27-29/making time 10.17/air

Flicks = movies, which you watch at a drive-in?
Given how blatantly obvious some of the other clues have been (Tyler, Lord Huron, Blood Orange) I'm trying not to overthink this one.
Carrie Underwood actually fits the clue perferctly...
A week or so ago I had mentioned in the headliner thread that I could see it as a "safe" year for them to have a country headliner with PJ - Dead - LCD all in the top 4. I think it actually makes a lot of sense. They knockout the country headliner and female headliner all at once.

walaka in regards to the CMAs, back when we were discussing ZBB somebody brought that up as well. Apparently the acts aren't paid for the CMAs so if it came down to one or the other I could see an act going for the pay day. And I would expect if there she would be no lower than 4. Most likely 3. Not a fan of her personally but she's a huge name.
Edit:
Looking at her tour dates right now, it actually looks possible. As of now her tour ends May 30 with no TN dates.
She starts back up at Country Fest the weekend after Bonnaroo and then has a few fests in July. Although one is a county fair so she may not require a top 3 or 4 booking.

If the clue is Carrie Underwood, then we're assuming that Bonnaroo is putting a top-4 headliner in the clues for the first time since when, 2009?
EDIT: After checking her tour dates...She has no TN date and from the looks of it had at least two or three chances to work one in there. It could easily still be CMA Fest but Roo looks very possible based on those dates/gaps...

When you make a guess for these clues, pretend you had the band first and were instructed to make a clue for it. Try to see the steps the cluemaker took. Imagine this for all of these guesses. Aptbs is the only one that makes such perfect sense. Its so easy that they could have said "how can the word strangers be used differently? Oh how about the movie? Since, its not that famous of a movie, we need to give a pretty obvious second part of the clue. Hmm this band name isn't very specific about where they bury strangers. Lets comment on that and use it as a way to lead people to this band."

Honestly the best fit for the clue is Carrie Underwood. Not my preferred answer. But best fit
