Apparently, one of the key starters for the Staples High School boys\' volleyball team skipped the state finals to go to Bonnaroo. Now that\'s prioritizing.

Can\'t he live while he is young?

Unless I had a scholarship to play for I would skip it too. High School is so insignificant, imo, in TGSOT that it doesn\'t matter.

That is funny though. Jerk left his team hanging.

Billboards Top 10 Bonnaroo Moments

10. The Beastie Boys show some New York love by bringing out fellow city MC Nas for a run through "Too Many Rappers" from the Boys\' upcoming "Hot Sauce Committee."

9. MGMT\'s ecstatic brand of psychedelic pop draws immense crowds to That Tent for a late-night set on Saturday. Thousands sweat, shake and shout along to "Electric Feel" at 3 a.m.

8. Wilco guitarist Nels Cline sends numerous songs into exultant territory as the sun moves low on the pre-Bruce Saturday night. The band\'s three-guitar, roots-group-gone-to-outer-space setup shines on intricate, emotional compositions like "Impossible Germany."

7. The Rev. Al Green, 63, shines on the main stage with shimmering versions of classics "Let\'s Stay Together" and "Here I Am," but he drives his voices into those crazy lovely upper registers on "Lay It Down" and floors the crowd, working up a sweat and giving out roses.

6. Warren Haynes, who is a member of 75% of all jam bands currently operating in America, drives his Gov\'t Mule through a fiesta of Saturday afternoon covers, including "Helter Skelter," Radiohead\'s "Creep," "Southern Man" with the magnificently-voiced Grace Potter, and a gorgeous take on U2\'s "One."

5. A tutu-sporting David Byrne dives in to a series of interpretive dance routines with his company of white-clad backup dancers, reprising the "big suit" moment from "Stop Making Sense" and grooving through a trio of songs from seminal Talking Heads album "Remain in Light."

4. The Drive-By Truckers back southern soul man Booker T. Jones on a three-song blast of Patterson Hood\'s ***** Hatchet-referencing autobiography "Let There Be Rock," a Jones-powered cover of "Hey Ya" that got the sweaty crowd sweatier and a ramshackle-train run through "I Can\'t Turn You Loose" that added up to a sprawling yet complete trifecta of Southern rock.

3. What began as a performance by Ilo and the Coral Reefer All-Stars turned into half of a full-on Jimmy Buffett performance, with the head Parrothead delivering "Margaritaville," "Fins," "A Pirate Looks at 40" and more to a noontime crowd on Saturday, certainly well earlier than Buffett\'s used to taking stages. For his part, the young Cape Verde native Ilo -- who 48 hours prior to the festival was still in customs, unsure if he could get to America -- proved a worthy sidekick, delivering three songs of gently rolling world music-infused pop-rock.

2. Nine Inch Nails\' Trent Reznor announces during his band\'s post-Bruce slot that the Bonnaroo appearance would be his band\'s last U.S. show ever. Reznor thanks the crowd "for all the years" but is, unsurprisingly, not forthcoming with any further details.

1. The megapowers collide: Bruce Springsteen joins Phish on Sunday night for a three-song surprise set of "Mustang Sally" and Springsteen\'s own "Bobby Jean" and "Glory Days," the latter song\'s second What Stage performance in two nights. Springsteen lays down the groundwork; Trey Anastasio doodles circles and designs over the top. Unprecedented, and not to be forgotten.

Not a surprise that Phish\'s Bonnaroo closer was the most memorable moment thanks to B.S.

Just wondering why the sit-in was at the end of the first set and not the end of the show.  At least they didn\'t close the festival w/ Hood.

Phans want to see Phish and not Phish plus 1 at the end of the show?

Who knows though, maybe, Phish wanted it because of the reason stated above or maybe Bruce wanted to get out of TN and asked for it to happen earlier rather than later. We might never know.

I\'m not complaigning... Either way, I\'m happy it happened... It just goes to show that Phish respects Bruce enough to share the stage with him... Now mabye "some fans" who shall remain nameless will also respect hime a little....

Doubt it. How many phans do you know that got heavy into Jay-Z after 2004 :lol:

For real though Jimmy Buffet and Phish need to team up again
