Top 10:
1. Led Zeppelin 2. Built to Spill 3. Explosions in the Sky 4. Stevie Wonder 5. Daft Punk 6. My Morning Jacket 7. Jack Johnson 8. Jens Lekman 9. Eric Clapton 10. Sigur Ros
Bottom Ten
1. Tool 2. Nine Inch Nails 3. 311 4. Rage Against the Machine 5. Widespread Panic 6. moe. 7. Trey Anastasio 8. G. Love and Special Sauce 9. The Mars Volta 10. Red Hot Chili Peppers
I don't know. I can usually find enough acts that if there is something I don't want to see, I just avoid it.
Great idea for a thread. I will try to keep my picks realistic. And I won't list any acts that played at last years Bonnaroo.
Top 10 Artists I want to see- Top 5 are in order, the rest are not 1. Tom Waits 2. David Bowie 3. Sonic Youth (with a Thurston Moore solo set) 4. Neil Young 5. My Bloody Valentine Everything else: 6. Beck 7. The Arcade Fire 8. Black Francis- Would much rather have the Pixies, but hey he would be cool to see 9. Stephen Malkmus- Would rather have Pavement, but a little Malkmus at Bonnaroo would be great 10. Rage Against the Machine
Top 10 Repellents 1. The Mars Volta 2. Red Hot Chili Peppers 3. Green Day 4. The Eagles 5. The Killers (unless they brought Lou Reed) 6. Peter Frampton- Good call on that dudezor 7. Bjork 8. John Mayer 9. Smashing Pumpkins 10. Led Zeppelin
But as attornaroo pointed out, if there are bands there and you don't want to see them- you don't have to see them. No one band will ever ruin my Bonnaroo. I REALLY don't like Tool, but I still made it through last year's Roo .
Top 1 moe. 2 spoonfed tribe 3 flecktones 4 allmans 5 minivan blues band 6 RUSH 7 explosions in the sky 8 yonder mountain string band (or leftover salmon, or del mccoury, or blue turtle seduction, or conjugal visitors) -- BLUEGRASS 9 DSO/phix/etc 10 zappa plays zappa
Bottom 10: 1 Rage 2 Prince 3 chili peppers 4 pumpkins 5 radiohead 6 bob dylan 7 O A R 8 anything ska/punk 9 phish 10 reunion tours
*i like coconuts, you can break them open they smell like ladies lyin in the sun** *Hell I don't even know where I am** *for now I must sit here and ponder the yonder: The herbivores did well cause their food didn't never run** *We listen, if it feels good We shake** *You made a big impression for a girl of your size, Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes.**
1. Rage Against the Machine 2. Muse 3. Girl Talk 4. Gogol Bordello 5. The Wailers/Ziggy Marley 6. The Beastie Boys 7. MIA 8. CSS 9. LCD Soundsystem 10. Clutch

Want:
1 Led Zeppelin 2 Roger Waters or Pink Floyd 3 Eric Clapton, Blind Faith or Cream 4 Tom Waits 5 Neil Young 6 The Dead or Phil and Friends 7 Bruce Springsteen 8 Pearl Jam 9 David Bowie 10 Radiohead
Don't Want:
1 Kenny Chesney 2 Toby Keith 3 Jimmy Buffett 4 Green Day 5 Foo Fighters 6 RATM 7 RHCP 8 R.E.M. 9 Smashing Pumpkins 10 The Cure
1) Radiohead 2) Prince 3) My Morning Jacket 4) Pink Floyd / David Gilmour / Roger Waters 5) Mr. Bungle 6) Stevie Wonder 7) The Del McCoury Band 8) Les Claypool in any form 9) The Beastie Boys 10) Willie Nelson
10 I would prefer not to see next year (in no order)
1) Hinder 2) Nickelback 3) Anyone who has ever appeared on American Idol 4) The Cult 5) Gwar 6) Coldplay 7) Amy Winehouse 8) Bjork 9) Metallica 10) Celine Dion
10 acts I would kill myself over if they overlapped (in order as best I could. I would hope they could all come. Also trying to be realistic.) 1.) The Flaming Lips 2.) Led Zeppelin 3.) The Mars Volta 4.) Robert Randolph & the Family Band 5.) Daft Punk 6.) My Morning Jacket 7.) Sigur Ros 8.) Wolfmother 9.) Jack Johnson 10.) Steel Train BONUS.) R.E.M.
10 acts I would not attend if they were there 1.) Pearl Jam 2.) Prince 3.) Pretty much anyone mainstream and anyone who gets radio play in the US (UK radio rocks the shit!). If I wanted to hear songs from the radio, I would do just that (unless I really love them). Other than that, I would give anyone else a chance. One of the hardest things to do this year was decide who I wanted to see and when. I'm glad to say that I did not attend The Police this year (though I watched Roxanne, as I made my way to the front of the Which Stage for the greatest night of my life).
This man came up to me just the other day, asked me I'd been born again. I told him, "I didn't think I had." That I had been rejected. But I think, Hell's got all the good bands anyway. And Bonnaroo.
