  1. This is one of the most lucid messages I've read in a while. A breeze of fresh air between endless Slowdive and The National comments tbh. Congratulations and thank you.
  2. Slowdive are playing a July festival in Spain still pending to announce them (and several bands). Let's move on, please.
  3. He was the first artist on the 2020 lineup video and it's hard to think he won't be bigger in 2025 so unless they get Bad Bunny or Radiohead he's #1 again. Funny enough, the second artist on that video was Lana del Rey and she's the only one I can think of that would be ahead today.
  4. Tyler set will be closer to Kendrick's headlining set (debuting a new album cycle) rather than Tame Impala's although doubt that he will release the album that very Friday as Kendrick. He has been releasing an album every two years since 2011 so seems pretty obvious that he skipped his next one to 2024 to secure a headlining spot at Coachella and decided to release a deluxe version of CMIYGL plus a victory lap with no new songs on his own fest (which is organized by Goldenvoice too). Counting on him as the biggest name on the 2025 line-up.
  5. The Beth Gibbons - Vampire Weekend is one of the obvious clashes of this year. She cannot play at the Auditori for several reasons: there would be some kind of hint on her description/Gabi would have said sth about it, plus she already did that when the festival was way smaller and she has a prominent placement on the poster and putting her there would generate a logistics problem. For me, the obvious spot is the infamous sunset slot at Ray-Ban but this year they moved it a bit early I think and with the new Amazon-main-stage next to it she could either be playing there. Anyway, 9:30-10:30ish. Now, Mordor has two possible iterations: Justice or some combination of Peggy Gou - Justice are closing Mordor. Pulp will be playing right before them, so they're starting at 11pm (New Order) or 12am (Halsey, Fred again). That leaves 10pm or 11pm for Vampire Weekend clashing directly with Beth Gibbons. My two cents: somehow they got lucky this year not clashing big acts playing Ray-Ban/Amazon with similar acts playing Mordor (see Depeche Mode vs Four Tet, The War on Drugs vs St. Vincent + Caroline Polachek, NxWorries + New Order vs Rema + Perfume). These are logical clashes so the most logical clash for me would be Deftones - Beth Gibbons and one of them ends up playing Mordor and the other one Ray-Ban or Amazon.
  6. Boiler Room is coming later. Happened in 2022, happened this year and will happen next year.
  7. Well, yeah but she's not doing Primavera this year.
  8. Tainy already play on 2022 W2. PJ Harvey, Kali, Romy, Tainy, The Armed, Blondshell... Probably all of them are playing.
  9. If Smashing Pumpkins are playing BBK I'm throwing myself in the river
  10. Gabi has the final say on whether an artist is booked or not. Doesn't matter if he actually is on the booking team or not.
  11. Booking Drake for 2024 would be worse than booking Calvin Harris for 2023
  12. Besides The National aren't playing on Wednesday
  13. Justice and Dj Koze are releasing new albums in 2024 and Disclosure did the same this August and announced that they were not touring but.
  14. Last year's Caleta line-up was insane, didn't make sense of how good it was. There was no way they could pull something similar off this year but most of the sets I catched there were okay, good or even very good (Prosumer and Cormac probably the weakest of the weekend). And couldn't see I. Jordan but not even Helena played techno as she usually does so not sure why bringing up the term.
  15. One of my mates cannot make it anymore so I'm selling their full weekend ticket for 139e if anyone is interested!
  16. She did 12 shows and virtually every review was ovewhelmingly positive. The show looked great too when she started the festival tour this year and she's playing a homecoming gig.
  17. Actually one of the greatest decisions they made this year
  18. I know it sucks but a Turnstile-New Order clash makes perfect sense tbh. On the other hand if it is Turnstile-Blur I riot. @festivalguy97Boiler Room this week (I'd say Friday so the focus stays on the Ciutat tickets) and schedule next week. Let's hope for 18th, let's pray for 15th.
  19. Something like Cabiria - Loyle Carner - Halsey - New Order - Blur - Le Tigre with Pusha, Turnstile and Ghost playing at Primavera (Binance) and NwWorries, Sparks and Darkside at Ray-Ban
  20. I think we're getting both areas this year. The 2019 area on the left and the new 2022 zone. I guess they'll get rid of the big structure at the back.
  21. Last year the Boiler Room line-up was announced 6 days before the festival so we'll see
  22. Funny, I think we're getting the schedule earlier than ever. Looking at how many posts and social media content they are uploading I guess they want to bring attention to the line-up, the acts and eventually to the tickets to shift as many as possible. Releasing the schedule earlier than previous years could generate more content and also help the undecided folks since they'll be able to check what artists they will actually see. I'm thinking early May but it's just a thought.
  23. Jose Gonzalez posted it by mistake. It'll be up today or tomorrow.
