Newjem

It was announced an hour ago lol Macklemore Chase & Status 50 Cent

Don't think so. Seems like New West, Analog Balaton and Platon Karataev are filling the remaining spots for that day. Main Stage, Revolut Stage and Party Arena are complete. Other smaller stages have majority of their program announced as well.

I believe there are still 3 slots TBA on Saturday? (1 for Main Stage, 2 for Revolut) Or was it also filled with some local names?

They announced they will be back next year.

Lovestream (same weekend as EP, Slovakia) is also announcing their headliners on Friday…

The headliners are in alphabetical order.

They have a show in Budapest few days after Sziget so no need for that...

https://szigetfestival.com/en/exciting-venues-of-sziget There are bands listed for some stages including the smaller ones. Also Europe Stage is now called The Buzz?

*stadium tour They need their own stage as their current show/equipment is not suitable for the regural festival stages. No chance...

Ok but that won't happen this year, that "chick" has other plans with her own band - Stand Atlantic. So 0% chance they're the last headliner we're looking for. Yes, that makes them unavailable...

I don’t know what’s not to understand about the fact both these bands are niche acts in the US. They’re not popular in the rest of the world as they are in the UK. They mostly headline alternative festivals like Primavera (no Werchter, Mad Cool or Open’er) where people love them. I don’t think they would be able to sell out stadiums (or even arenas) in mainland Europe.

6-7 hits that used to be played (or still is) in the radio? No way...

I don't know what he expected tbh. Coachella crowd is generally not the greatest, they've never hit the charts in the US and most of the crowd were little kids (or not even born) when Blur were at their peak. Don't think it would be much better at Sziget nowadays, most of the people (except the Brits ofc) would only know Song 2.

Also nothing after Coachella.

I don't blindly support Sziget's lineup (I don't even have a ticket lol) but if the festivals you picked are the best ones then it just proves my point (even though music taste is subjective). We get that you're dissapointed as a paying customer but you don't have to complain about it here every week. Rock En Seine is solid, I'm not a fan of the headliners apart from Fred and maybe Maneskin. Lana is huge but probably one of the worst live acts in the world right now. Rock Werchter is just weak compared to their previous editions. Lenny as a headliner? And wtf are Sum 41, Khruangbin and Pretenders doing so high up? In general, there are way too many "outdated/irrelevant" bands in big slots this year and barely anything "interesting/fresh". And I'm sorry but Main Square is a joke, man. What kind of crowd are they aiming for? It's like putting lots of random things in a blender and calling it "mystery smoothie". I listen to loads of different stuff but even I think this is way too much.
