[Bilbao BBK Live 2019]

"sounds more exciting than actually is" means no st. Vincent, Karen O and other females in this caliber. We'll see soon. I'm very happy with the current line up so any decent additions will just add to the flavor for me
(and secretly hoping they drag Yonaka from Mad Cool... ) 

[Benicassim (FIB) 2019]

Interesting discussion for the headliner slots. In the same time on their home page you can see that Blossoms and You me at six are both listed twice. Probably we'll have Lana play twice as well and also twice KOL and there you go...
(Rant is now over, sorry, couldn't stop myself)

I really hope they have more exciting names for the next announcement... Pretty much nothing for me at this point, except the cool beaches:)
 

[Benicassim (FIB) 2019]

is it soon or not - I cannot tell but it appears that Foals will tour all summer. 
Already announced for RaR in the beginning of June so I expect them to pop up at most major EU fests during the summer. Already two Festivals in Spain though - I doubt they'l appear at Benni as well

[Primavera Sound 2019]

seeing a lot of guesses, wishlist's here etc. I thought the headline slots for next year were pretty obvious and will be: Mumford, Florence and the Cure. I'm not super hyped for any of these of course so anything more would be pleasant surprise. Honestly I haven't done a lot of research as most of you here and hope I'm wrong (hope you're wrong for Tame Impala as well, HAHA)...

We'll see soon I guess :)
 

[Lollapalooza Berlin 2018]

Very similar with 2017 Lollapalooza Paris but without the good (for my taste) stuff:/
Anyway - lots of other good festivals this year to choose from:)

[Mad Cool 2018]

Here are all dates incl. Mad Cool!

horrendous line up.

there are stuff there that i want see for sure. enough to keep me interested and for my group to have a good time. if i still lived in london, id say no but , its easy to get to now. 

mad cool sunday is better than all this together, for me personally. primavera please drop a good line up. please. 

I also don't like the Coachella line up, but it's definitely better than anything mad cool has to offer on Sunday  
Still I have to do through this line up as I haven't heard most of the stuff announced today... 

[Rock am Ring 2018]

yeah, I see no more than 1-2 decent bands on this poster with the next announcement and the rest will be fillers. With the next announcement next year we'll see day splits so this will be interesting as well.

Overall not counting the Foo fighters day on Download Paris - so far RaR/RiP have the best rock line up for '18.

P.S. Excuse my zero tolerance for Judas, Maiden, Ozzy, Guns and other not relevant bands in 21st century

[Mad Cool 2018]

Jack White was removed from this poster. Really looking forward seeing him in '18 though
 

[Mad Cool 2018]

Day tix (NOS and also Mad cool) are 20 to 30 Euro cheaper than dedicated Pearl Jam concert. It's normal to sold out fast. I saw that in Bcn face value will be 98 eur. in Italy again around 95 eur so it's smart to choose 1 day at a festival.
I feel kinda stupid missing on the cheap Mad Cool promo tix though. At 11:00 I visited Ticketmaster directly via mobile saw the promo quantity was sold and got the regular:/ Anyway, it's still great value... no matter who the final headliner/s will be or any other acts. 
I'm more worried about the NIN tour - where the other tour dates...? 

[Mad Cool 2018]

wow, this poster looks impressive. 

These tickets will sell out very fast! I'm not sure if I'll wait for additional announcements from NOS.

For Saturday I don't think Depeche and qotsa will co-headline. If the organizers act smart they'll pit NIN after QOTSA. I saw this combination on Rock im Park 2014 and it was impressive. Also they had an Australian tour together. You said that there are 2 main stages so Depeche probably will headline the other one... We will see I guess

[Mad Cool 2018]

Apparently Pearl Jam is possible, but additional headliner on top of them I think is not... (especially Arctic Monkeys). Even in this moment there is enough headline material for 3 days festival. We are all greedy as f* when it comes to announcements but we should have in mind how cheap the festival is compared to the other major EU festivals. Right now this ticket is a steal)

On the other hand - too many headliners could mean some clashes... Nobody knows how the timetable could look like. I really don't want to miss eventual PJ because Trent plays the other stage. Hm, when I come to think about it - this sounds like a good idea (devil)

Also Pearl Jam are bigger than some festival in Spain so such announcement will come when the band is ready.... which is probably tomorrow based on the new NOS alive status:)
