Phish was instrumental in giving inspiration for creating Bonnaroo. Not to mention, a member of Phish has appeared in nearly every festival (except 2?) since the beginning. Booking Phish is a nod to the roots and is a natural progression, I highly HIGHLY doubt it's about the money, even just a little bit.
You're fooling yourself, on a massive scale. Phish brings an audience. Phish also would be a tipping point for a lot of people to actually go. Kenny Rogers was invited for nostalgia. Not the headliner.
