Well it depends. It doesn't seem like they have done anything with the capacity, although it's hard to say what they mean by a "brand new Klub-C". Open fronts will help those outside be more engaged in the concert as well as the extra screens, but there were screens outside last year also, so unsure how much that helps. Basically open fronts is an advantage, but if you can't get in, I'm very unsure whether it will help to feel like you're a part of the concert. It is common on other festivals though, so maybe... I've got very few tent-artists I want to see this year, so hopefully there won't be many issues for me. Morello/Snow Patrol will probably be the only one if I decide to see them rather than Sum 41.
-
That's definitely not solving any of last years issues, so I hope they have something else up their sleves. Would be interesting to know the thinking behind the setup, when it comes to the floe between scenes and creating a maximum audience for their artists as it puzzles me every time. Anyway.. Thursday and Friday filled with clashes, while there a giant holes on Saturday and Sunday. Fingers crossed for cancellations and new interesting bands in 😉
-
So, the limited extra tickets for Friday. We're the sell out a PR-trick or do they try to squeeze even more sheep into a barn? Will be interesting to see if they have made any adjustments to the tents after last years disaster and bad PR....
-
That's strange... I was quite sure that the most popular band on Spotify or whatever it was, would be an immediate sell out. Go figure....
-
Usually around Easter. I would guess end of March/early April.
-
Sounds good! The only thing that can save my liver for totally collapsing on Saturday and Sunday, so let's hope it's not stacked on Thursday (and Friday).
-
Nope, then there needs to be cancellations. That said though, The Slope has for me always had the most interesting bands and the best shows, but they're not very big no.
-
Is it possible to get them to play instead of Måneskin? 😉
-
It has been the same the last years as well. The Slope has a tendency of being announced late.
-
2 actually (Peuk and High Vis), but yeah, the Slope has to save this years edition.. As for the major stages, most main spots are taken, but this is what we get for buying tickets too early. The two worst days are sold out, so nothing more to expect there in terms quality at least.
-
I love NBT and totally agree with you. They're drowning on Main Stage, but I doubt there's any chance of getting them inside unfortunately 😞
-
Agree, but the reason Sum 41 played early last time, was 100% logistics. Khruangbin subbing before Dua Lipa, must be for those needing to go to sleep before she starts. They are decent, but has nothing to do subbing. As for today's announcement, I'd say there are 4-5 decent addition, but boy those tables turn fast. Right now Saturday and Sunday look terrible and can pretty much only be saved by a magnificent Slope line-up. I would never have thought I'd say the Thursday look best, but it does. A quick count tells me I (at least for now) have 8 acts I stronly consider watching on Thursday, Friday 5, Saturday 2 and Sunday 1(!). The weekend is insanely bad and I don't think I can ever recall having two days looking so bad in January when we're well over halfway. My liver will not like this line-up...
-
No matter what I feel about her or not, this doesn't say too much. Saturday and Sunday would have sold out anyway as it's the only to whole weekend days. Some would have bought tickets no matter what and even though a part of them naturally have bought the tickets because of the names, it's still only between maybe 10-15k. That's not a very large venue. I'm almost 100% sure that neither Dua Lipa or Måneskin would have sold out Thursday, but on a Saturday, the field for Dua Lipa will probably be full, depending on what the alternatives are (but that alternative is usually queueing outside a closed tent anyway).

Glen Hansard has announced tour dates until 2nd of July with more to come. Crossing my fingers for a Barn/KlubC performance...
-
Manchester Orchestra playing in UK on the 11th of July. Would be my #1 pick for any band for 2023, so I hope RW are on the ball..
