  1. I can get you a code if you are interested. You only need the first 6 digits of a Santander card which are publicly available.
  2. Bought 2 tickets in the presale. I did the same 3 years ago and ended up reselling them, hopefully this year will be my first one. BTW, if anyone is interested in a code for the presale pm me.
  3. Rosalía has struggled to sell her tour in Spain this year. This was mainly due to the excessive price point. Might do better as part of a festival though.
  4. The Mad Cool vs Primavera debate is pretty clear. They are in direct competition for the same headliners and audience. Now even clearer since they are in the same city. It is true that they do not entirely overlap in genres of some undercard acts. But still take a look at MC lineup smaller artists, half could be (or even have already been) part of PS lineup. Personally, I went to PS last year. This year I will choose MC by the looks of it. Might buy a single day ticket of PS to cover what I am missing.
  5. The lineup is a tad boring for my taste but given that I will be moving to Madrid next year and it is almost half price compared to Primavera Sound is a no brainer.
  6. So basically the same thing that happened with The Strokes last edition?
  7. For those of you who have attended before: What does the VIP give you? Is it worth it?
  8. Unless there is a holding deposit for the bookings this is prone to end up with empty venues due to no shows. Also, people will mostly go just for the big act...
  9. It would make sense for me to go to Madrid but just the presence of Maneskin, Halsey and the sorts makes me think what kind of public will it attract.. I guess there is no rush to get tickets anyway. Especially considering how they were reselling for a third of the price a week before the festival last year. Might just wait a bit and check what Mad Cool puts together.
  10. Not happening in July/September. They just replied on insta that there is still some time left for any lineup announcement so keep expectations low.
  11. Double main stage set ups work great for me. Festivals with a single main stage end up feeling like you spent half of the day waiting for an act to start. Especially if you want to see a fews acts in a row. For the first time, PS felt like I spent most time actually watching a band playing rather than waiting.
  12. We need to get Kendrick next year for Primavera. Insane show he is delivering at Glastonbury.
  13. So jealous of everyone at the pyramid right now and I don't even know Kendrick. Insane show he is putting. The set of the festival so far.
  14. I went only to W2 so can't speak for W1 (W2 had more people anyway). But we were FAR away from overcrowding or any dangerous situation. When a stage is overcrowded it gets to a point where you no longer have any space around you. You can't even get your phone out of your pocket. You can't control your movements and it is the actual crowd that decides where you are going. I have experienced this at few festivals before, such as Oxegen, Glasto or even smaller festivals like Citadel. W2 was nothing like that, pretty much the opposite. During the busiest times (Dua Lipa, Strokes or Tame Impala) I was perfectly capable of getting to the front rows 10min after the concert had begun and there was plenty of space. Sometimes you could even see people sitting down.
  15. Funnily enough I got covid 2 weeks before PS so I thought I was sorted. Came back with flu instead.
  16. Fred again, Jay Electronica, Tyler, Danny L Harle and Dua were my favourites. This has been my first PS so cant tell about past ones but comparing against other festivals it feels well organized and not too oversold. I didn't have any issues or see any trouble. There are some bottlenecks when leaving main stages but you get the same in pretty much any other major festival. Btw, I read that W1 had 220k people and W2 240k.
  17. He does the monologues at every show but yesterdays one was the shortest setlist this year.
  18. I think it was the worst set I have seen from The Strokes in 12 years (also the shortest). The stand up comedy show by Julian didnt go down that well with the natives. Especially the part where he was trying to teach them their own language. After a bumpy start it seemed like it was going to be a great gig but started derailing after about 5 songs. From that point onwards most songs were half baked and most people left from the right side where I was standing. I ended up almost front row with loads of space around. Special mention to Under the Cover of Darkness at 0.5x speed. Best part was getting to close with Threat of Joy and a pretty good sound overall.
  19. Weird, site is super busy today but most acts feel half empty.
  20. Yesterday was great. Had a blast on the stage invasion with Jay Electronica. Absolute scenes. Dua Lipa, Tyler, Bicep... what a first day! I was scared with all the horror stories from last weekend but it all worked great, no bar queues for me. However, I'm worried about today. Yesterday it felt like the festival was at full capacity. Not sure what it's going to happen with the extra people coming for The Strokes
  21. Managed to get to Jorjas gig yesterday at Barts without any issues. Thought I would try that one as the main attractions were elsewhere. Ended up being a great way of starting the weekend. See everyone around in a few hours!
  22. Sounds tricky. I was hoping that with all the main attractions being in Poble, Razzmatazz and Apolo it would not fill until gig time. Might give it a try still. Thanks!
  23. On my way to the airport now, excitement is starting to grow! Has anyone been to Parallel 62 venue? I want to catch Priya and Jorja Smith tonight but only have a W2 ticket. What time should I be there?
  24. This will be resolved in the coming days for sure. It is in their own interest to serve drinks faster.
