Buffalo Springfield's performance at the Bonnaroo Music Festival on June 11, 2011, marked a significant moment in the band's history, as it was part of their reunion tour, occurring over four decades after their initial breakup in 1968. Prior to this live recording, the band had released their self-titled debut album in 1966, which included classics like “For What It’s Worth,” a protest song that became an anthem of the 1960s. The reunion showcased the band's enduring appeal, drawing fans both new and old to their powerful blend of folk rock and social commentary. Notably, this performance was part of a limited reunion run, as the members had been largely focused on individual projects for many years. Their appearance at Bonnaroo not only celebrated their legacy but also underscored the song's continued relevance in a contemporary context, resonating with ongoing themes of social change and activism.
