2017 will mark the 9th time UM has been on the Bonnaroo lineup. Since Bonnaroo's inception in 2002, UM has helped build this festival from the ground up, creating the atmosphere we all love today. I know The Weeknd, Lorde, Travis Scott, etc. are what's "hot" right now, but no other band, night in and night out, brings the heat like UM. Hopefully you have had the privilege of catching one of their legendary Bonnaroo performances of yore, and you know what I'm talking about. I say we give the people what the want: Rock, Lights, Jams, Umphrey's McGee! Let's give the boys the chance to close this thing out on What Stage in style. I can't think of a more deserving group of musicians to close out our beloved Bonnaroo, yes, that even includes Joel.
