Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
Butthead: Huh huh.

the only thing that bothers me about Metallica being there is that their track record with playing the biggest music festivals for the first time hasnt boaded well for the festivals themselves...
examples:
they played Lolla... and Lolla died (true its back now.. but for almost a decade it was gone!)
they played Woodstock.... woodstock is no more...
now... that is just a little aside but i think that Bonnaroo will continue.
other than that Metallica has every right to be there... yeah they are a metal band.. but Bonnaroo was never really about exclusive jam bands...
(thats more 10kLakes) its been about the celebration of all types of music...including metal!
I saw them the very next night after the first Woodstock or Woodstock II and that was the best Metallica show out of 12 or so that I've seen.
They'll trying harder than ever to win some of their fan base back after recent weak efforts album wise. In fact I just realized I'm listening to them at this moment. That album they released with the symphony in the background live. It's not bad but I certainly wouldn't have bought it though.
Also they completely outplayed Guns and Roses when they had that tour together, now that was some serious fun and my neck was hurting for days after .
