Primavera Sound 2016

[calaix]

The Sunday afternoon gigs are public access.And you might easily find a group that are flying out on the Sunday and then you can ask to take their wristbands and go to the Sunday night closing gigs!

Julia Holter was excellent tonight. Definitely catch her set this year.

[StephenF]

Hi, one of my friends (who has already booked flights and accommodation) has been a prize twat and not bought his ticket. If anybody is selling one please give me a PM. Cheers!

Nice !!

I've resisted delving into the Barcelona undercard for fear of finding some gems that don't declare for Porto.

Looking forward to Thursday.

Calaix, who is the tube that keeps downvoting you? It's getting old now.

[weston24]

It's pathetic, the downvoting that is.

[calaix]

Thanks. I have my strong suspicions (and it's definitely no one I know) but I won't say on here.

There's a saying I remember my great-grandmother whispering to me in the cot - 'If someone wants to be a dickhead in life, well let them be the very best dickhead they can be'.

Your great-grandmother is EPIC !!!

Can GOLD members can see the identity of upvoters / downvoters?

Would be good to know who the lamebrain is.

Heh, I just want a quiet life.

Does anyone have any guesses as to who will play the auditori? Suede, we know...

Was hoping for Brian Wilson too, but I've had Gabi confirm outdoors for Pet Sounds.  John Carpenter??

[yaniv297]

Do we know what kind of show John Carpenter will do? I can see him playing the late night post-headliner slot (the one Underworld did last year).

[Albert.EA]

My bets for the Auditori slots are:

*Thursday:
Suede, Alessandro Cortini and Kamasi Washington.

*Friday:
Holly Herndon, Lubomyr Melnyk, Richard Dawson and Cavern Of Anti-Matter. I'm hoping for Tortoise though.

*Saturday:
Six Organs Of Admittance, Baby Dee, Current 93 and Angel Witch

I agree with yaniv297, I see John Carpenter palying late night a la Underworld.

Also, Friday Day tickets are about to sold out. It's pretty much immediate.

Those all seem very good calls. Shame so much good stuff in there on Thursday when there's also so much good stuff outside that night.

Also Brian in the Auditori - how magical that would have been. Understandable decision though...

[frankburns]

Ben Watt was supposed to play in the Auditori last year but then he had to cancel.

I think he will be there this year.

Suede and Bernard Butler on consecutive nights there!

[livenstu]

Kamasi Washington in the Auditori will be EPIC (no pun intended).  Mbongwana Star would also fit, as would Robert Forster

[DDave]

Right, as my flights are booked I'd better start getting into the line up.

Been loving Nao (playing Friday) so hoping she'll be on a preferably fairly early slot with no clashes.

Anyone think that Gabi will be tempted into throwing a few extra surprises in the mix now there's money in the bank?
