    Sure, in the under-undercard. There's plenty there too this year, I just think the guy I'm talking about is being a bit woe-is-me about all the hip-hop and dance bulking out this edition.

    We're feeling the same. Been going for years, bought our early birds, but festival seems to have taken a hard turn this year away from what it used to be. Not a bad thing, just not a fit for us any longer. We'll offload our tickets and just do something else.

    Tickets bought! Even through all the issues of W1 this year we still had a brilliant time. Not sure how much of that was to do with Barcelona instead of the festival but who cares. 

    So 195 euros now but then it’ll be 325 once the full final lineup is out? Surely there’s going to have to be some huge names to justify people paying such a jump in price? 

    Especially for the locals.

    This year I missed some musical surprises at the Festival. No Hidden Stage. Thought may Kings of Convencience will play. Or Arcade Fire. But we had only cancellations. For next year, I don't only wait for the line up but even for the timetable. The Line Up Poster shows only half the truth... 

    Just for comparison, the Rolling Stones cancelled their Amsterdam gig a couple of nights ago because Mick caught covid. Gig got cancelled after people had already entered the stadium. So I can cut the organisers some slack here because there's only so much they can do.

    Two friends in our group fell ill Monday & tested positive today. I've gone from scratchy throat to very cough-y quickly. Just went through covid the first time a month ago & fear I've managed to somehow catch it again?! Could be a cold. The last week of exhaustion, too little sleep  & a lot of Gizz was bound to catch up. Time will tell soon enough if I need to extend my stay & reschedule to my flight back home to the states.

    Speedy recovery to all.

    Could be a cold. I’ve got the similar symptoms but COVID self-test came up negative.

    If it’s any consolation: the city is pretty busy as well. We spent 40mins getting into El Xampanyet (totally worth it) and just ordered at Dr Stravinsky which took us at least 30mins to get into. 

    Love El Xampanyet, but 40 minutes to get in isn’t unusual 😉 BierCAB is reasonable, got a table in five minutes

    Not sure what you mean but we are at the front and they're not letting anyone in regardless.

    Normal single weekend people in this queue. Not that it’s moving more than the other one. Lesson learned: food after, not before.

    That's strange because at Sala Apolo W1+W2 pass and VIP were on the same queue (the one I was in)

    I think I will try to get to Razz2 for King Gizz with the VIP and 1+2 line and hope for the best ahah! 

    I know, same queue, and 1+2 was displayed next to VIP on the banner. Didn’t get her in though.

    Obviously early days but yeah much chiller vibe tonight so far. Everyone seems to be having a nicer time in my experience.

     

    TFS were absolutely insane. One of the best sets I've seen in a while

    Incredible, will try and see them Sunday night as well
