Angel ARE playing in the auditori. Also you'll definitely be able to hear both LSP and Radiohead but if you want to be at the front for Radiohead then you'll technically be at the back for LSP (in the distance) as they are on opposite stages one after the other.

StephenF Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 why on earth did they put them there? Strange place for Angel Witch...could be amusing none the less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you know this? I find it very hard to guess in which order LSP and Beach House will play. LSP is before them in the poster, but that doesn't mean anything (last year Patti Smith was billed above Damien Rice and Sleater Kinney but played before both of them). Also, Beach House style and light show pretty much requires them to play in the dark, while LSP can definitely do daylight show. That third-before-headliner spot is still daylight (See here or here), so I think it's very likely LSP will get it and Beach House will play right before Radiohead.

ZXCVBNM Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Switch Suede and Floating Points around then, I guess, and swap Shellac with Neil Michael Hagerty maybe? Idk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
branvan Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 so I think it's very likely LSP will get it and Beach House will play right before Radiohead. my guess as well. Beach House must play in the dark. have you seen the Coachella set? Everything very dark, you couldn't hardly see Victoria Legrand singing...

smwatson Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Makes sense for LSP and Radiohead to be on the same stage as they're sharing an orchestra... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had thought that LSP were the much bigger draw and would definitely go on after BH but now I'm not sure. Although BH must still play a lot of festival sets in daylight, I think your guess on the order makes more sense. Man oh man, that stretch before Radiohead is going to be a real test of stamina...

Although BH must still play a lot of festival sets in daylight, I think your guess on the order makes more sense. LSP are maybe bigger solely because of the presence of Alex Turner (who anyway won't play any of the tunes he's really famous for). But Beach House are indie darlings and their work is probably more famous than LSP. Also, a lot of other festivals are billing LSP a lot lower than I expected (like Coachella, they're in really small letters! and Beach House are pretty big) Edited April 18, 2016 by yaniv297 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember the last time they played with an orchestra... There were images of Radiohead recording an orchestra last year - but that could have just been for their James Bond track, and not the album itself. I haven't seen any references to an orchestra anywhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxialac Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Hope they announce the Hidden Stage at the end of the month, though the idea of yet more bands to add to the inevitable clashes is kind of ridiculous. Wonder if a major band will play at around 5pm on the Thursday like Interpol last year. I'd give the slot to a band that is up against Radiohead...

branvan Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 still waiting for LUSH to come. simply can't imagine Primaverasound in the year of Lush's reunion and them playing another Festival in France at the same Weekend WITHOUT Lush... may they are the Apolo surprise?

Hip Priest Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Yeah, it's hard to imagine Lush are not on the agenda, but where would they play? A Thursday 5pm Apolo gig alone would be unfair on many festival-goers while a hidden stage gig would be heavily over-subscribed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hip Priest Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 The Monochrome Set have listed Friday 3 June at Primavera on their website. Hidden Stage? http://www.tapeterecords.de/concerts/ (credit to the person on the Spanish Primavera forum who spotted this) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Apolo but not the Forum as well I meant. Ah, it's just that lots of people are only arriving in the city that day and will be queuing for the wristband at the Forum then, no biggie. Gabi did another periscope yesterday but it was just him walking round the Primavera offices. Said in a fortnight all the timetables and stuff will be out. Is hoping to do a periscope from the Forum site next week to show what layout changes are happening, could be interesting though they may be more to do with VIP than anything else. Was asked didn't he think Avalanches at RayBan would be rammed and he said yeah, but what can you do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxialac Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Thanks @Hip Priest I do think if they were to give us Lush on top of everything else and don't make it VIP only then I don't see that as unfair, no matter where they play. We are seriously spoilt as it is... Presumably will be a lot of Bowie and Prince covers at the festival. I'm glad it's not next week - will be cut-up about the Prince news for a good month.
