kingcrawler Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 http://www.europe.easybranches.com/ireland/Nick-Cave---The-Bad-Seeds-announce-first-Irish-date-in-10-years-73540 So Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds are doing festivals next summer, would be an amazing headliner for Primavera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Incognito Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 I'm expecting something like Nick Cave, The National, Chance The Rapper and The War On Drugs as the top line of the line up. Maybe a slightly more unique/heritage act (Smashing Pumpkins etc) wil sneak in over TWOD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackarmy Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Nick Cave and Patti Smith would both be great additions to the Primavera lineup. Makes perfect sense if they're about the following week. I'm guessing Patti's no longer touring Horses like she was when she last played the festival either.

Hip Priest Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Gabi doing a Facebook Live next week about the PS18 line up, the last one was mainly rambling about the club gigs this autumn and the financial side of things. He's got to drop a few names, what's the point otherwise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Low Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Does anyone know when the line-up is normally announced? Want to buy a ticket at the lower price before it increases but also need to sort a place to stay too so debating on what to purchase first if I'd have time.

It's normally around the end of November I think. I'm definitely not expecting to hear anything for at least another month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxialac Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Ridiculous. The below is just stating fact in a bid to be helpful. Taking offence to something so neutral is unbelievably precious. 'The lineup announcement is not normally in November. It's in late January. Last year was the exception.'

dentalplan Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 New MGMT track is pretty wicked. Been a hot minute since they were at PS so I hope they're playing, on the off-chance that I'm in attendance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxialac Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 No Spanish dates for d'Angelo's Spring tour. Think he'd be a fine booking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenF Posted October 21, 2017 Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 d'Angelo will have been approached I'd think...surprised that he's ruled out Courtney and Kurt :/ Really hoping for perfume genius and cap'n jazz for the undercard.

chemica Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Little bit of a festival update : new London Festival All Points East. 10 day festival spanning the whole time of PS. Imagine there will be quite a few crossovers from American artists. It's a similar format to BST Hyde Park I believe, 10 day festivals rather than one continuous event . War on Drugs and The National announced. As well as Popcaan and Lykke Li, Future Islands and Warpaint. The XX also, but they won't come back to Barcelona so soon. Will be interested to see how this develops. As so far, most, if not all except the xx, could feature at PS too Edited October 23, 2017 by chemica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxialac Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 Interesting. Looks like there will only be 3 days of music out of the 10. I'd put money on at least two out of the National, War on Drugs, Future Islands and Warpaint to play Primavera (all of whom are repeats of course). Expect them to all play on Thursday, as they are in London on Saturday. Field Day, All Points East and Primavera all the same weekend. I would worry for Field Day's survival with that much competition... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The proper music festival (with 5 stages) will happen on the first weekend, so no straight overlap with Primavera (which starts Monday). Field Day won't be on the same weekend, if anything, since APE will take place at the same venue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
