Why are you so sure about Tame Impala? I'm asking because they would be a very interesting band for NOS Alive... and NOS Alive is the most powerful Portuguese festival.

I think they will share a lot of names with FIB. Arctic Monkeys and/or Foo Fighters are my big bets. It's a special edition, so I guess the line-up will be expensive for the organisation. And most of all, I think they will try again to compete with NOS Alive, something they didn't do very much in the last few years, beting on hip hop and electronic, instead of rock.

I can see Florence playing right before The Cure and Ornatos Violeta after. Probably a 1h15m concert.

For now, it's missing a type of band like Arctic Monkeys or Pearl Jam last year. The type of bands that you know they will sell out the festival "alone". Way too curious about the second day. Obviously, a band like The Strokes could change this.

This festival is like going to therapy. I don't like to camp, so next year I will have to find a better solution. The line-up is looking good for now. Last year I went to like 20 concerts, multiple bands that I've never heard before, and was really worth it.

I thought about this and other possibility is for them to play after The Cure, like MGMT and others in the last years. If so, they probably will play more time and just for people who wants to hear them (Portuguese people, naturally).

OMG can't believe this! Take all my money now! 😱 They will open for The Cure, for sure. This is (for me) the greatest Portuguese band of all time. They broke up almost 20 years ago and they're still THE band. They probably will play their second album and b-sides. Something like this, but shorter: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/ornatos-violeta/2012/praia-do-tabuao-paredes-de-coura-portugal-23dc1c2b.html

This is the name of the tour he's playing in the US, but I don't understand why they put a tour name on the presentation picture 🤨

I was also expecting her and I'm so happy 😍

Not at all. I'm expecting Arctic Monkeys.

I'm not excited with Barcelona's line-up, so I'm expecting at least that Julien Baker, Tame Impala and James Blake didn't play NPS, 'cause if they go, then I will have to go ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Bets?

Smaller stuff until May or June.

That means nothing, I guess...

Blitz is not a very credible source in some things, so don't be surprise if they end up not playing in Portugal at all 😂 but, in my opinion, this time, they'll probably right and I can see New Order playing the same night as The Cure.
