The eclecticism and the bold mixing of music and people is the true purpose of this festival. As My Morning Jacket's lead man Jim James said in a telephone conference with The Hatchet, "It's like a fantasy world...a chance for everybody to escape their normal lives and their normal jobs and normal worries and...just go out with a bunch of like-minded people that just want to have fun."

With a live show as cohesive and purely tremendous as theirs, it probably would be enough for MMJ to simply do their regular thang at Bonnaroo, but they seem intent on one-upping themselves at the festival for each performance. Last year, perhaps the highlight of the festival was their day-time second-stage set, which featured giant, bobble-headed puppets on stage. James suggests that MMJ's 2006 performance, which, according to him, is tentatively set to be a four-hour midnight marathon set, will follow in a similar vein.
