I never got checked to enter the festival on first days, no one even asked me for my wristbands. After those days, they usually check if you have glass on your bag but nothing else, but try to contact to the festival via mail or instagram just to check it out

I'd kill for : Anyma - Party Arena Brutalismus 3000 - Colloseum Ascendant Vierge - Europe Stage Massive Attack - Main Stage Slowdive - A38. I think we'll have 0 of those. Maybe Anyma or Brutalismus at most.

This is Primavera Sound editorial line-up. I think we could expect 2-3 at most from here.

Lana del Rey & Catfish and the Bottlemen

Taking your fictional example, I like bands from your list, and I hate others. The Cure and Maneskin sound totally different to me, same thing with Offspring. They appael for totally different targets. Same thing happens with the electronic names from the line-up. Four Tet will be so boring for hardcore Martin Garrix fans. "People who dislike it dislike it regardless if it is techno, dance or trance" there are so many kind of different electronic names in the line-up, if you listen carefully, maybe you can find something you like. If you want to think everything is the same, it's your choice. My point was "not to say" EDM to all electronic names, that's it. Was more like a technicality. We have like 50 % of electronic music right now (we have two stages for that, it's normal) but not 3/4 as you said

First Four Tet's album is from 1999, of course he is not actual. But this is not my point. As I told before, I understand EDM as this Tomorrowland type of djs, (Garrix, Avicci, Guetta, SHM, Alesso etc). Meute is electronic music, but they play instruments, and they sound totally different from my perspective, just to point one from the fest. Many people love Fred and hate this tomorrowland type of electronic music, it's like comparing Nu-Metal with Punk just because they both have guitars. You have : Stormzy, Sam Smith, Aurora, Crystal FIghters, Grandson, Becky Hill, Tomlinson, Big Thief, Fontaines D.C, Yard Act, Wednesday, Joker Out, Blondshell, Pip Blom, Zoe Wees, Warhaus, Dagny. (17) of 35. Then you have things like Overmono, Fred, Meute, L'imperatrice, Nia Archives, or Four Tet, and they are not the tipically Colloseum acts at all, and they'll probably play main or a38. They have 2 electronic stages, totally understandable they have a lot of electronic music. My point, from an electronic music lover, is they have so many differente electronic sub-genres, and most electronic music lovers don't like all. I don't like techno, for instance.

I understand EDM as Martin Garrix, maybe Arbat at most. I cannot consider the same thing for Four Tet, Hawtin, Fred or Overmono, they all are electronic music, yes, but very different. I love electronic music, but not all the electronic names. I see 21 names out of 35 that are not pure electronic, so I don't see your 3/4

Give me Brutalismus 3000 and Lost Frequencies, please.

I'm totally with you. I like all the acts you said, + Aurora, Blondshell, Dagny, Grandson, Meute and Artbat. I'd say I want to see almost the full line up except Sam, Stormzy, Becky Hill, and Tomlinson and a few names I don't know (yet). I was expecting a worse line-up due Leaks bets.

what happens with Massive Attack?

Agree with you on headliners, but looks like there is not strong headliners touring in Europe on those dates. You have amazing bands like LCD Soundsystem, Massive Attack, or even Queens of the Stone Age, but they are not "strong" headliners at all (but I'd kill to have them, specially if we compare them with Stormzy or Sam Smith). The only "big" headliner touring is Lana del Rey, and looks like they are trying to book her. On the other side, the "A38" names are pretty good

I don' think this is 21 under line-up at all

The medium- small names are so good, c'mon. Pretty weak for headliners, but I don't really spend much time on main stage, so no problem with me. Very nice taste selecting most of the names. Leaks told us the worst names of the line-up in my opinion.

Guys, I really like it, considering what I was expecting

If they are former 1D fans, can't be teenagers right now. This One directions guys appeals more to people closer to their 30s than 20s. Harry Styles is 29, c'mon, that is another different generation

It's not the same. Because there is power dynamic where you have control over the other one (their job) , and you could feel "obliged" to do some things in order to keep your job. It's not the same with the typical groupie / rock band leader dynamic, at least, once again, if there is not violence, blackmail, or werid stuff. I don't approve that.

Probably the only reason the "victims" were attracted to Win was because he was the singer of Arcade Fire. I don't know if he has used any type of violence, blackmail or something like that, if so, it seems reprehensible to me. But if this is not the case, he has simply used his status, which is something that women generally value as an attractiveness value. Just like being handsome, tall, muscular, or have a lot of money attracts to some kind of girls. If is Consensus, It is an exchange in which each party gets what they are looking for.

Your list is very urban-friendly for Mad Cool. This is not Primavera Sound or Roskilde. I'd say Dua Lipa, Avril Lavigne, Skrillex, Maneskin and maybe Bicep from that list.

Only two from Oya, Big Thief and Overmono.

I think the 5 members band is Idles, right?

Man, this sounds terrible. I only like Big Thief and Overmono from that list. Nobody is asking about electronic names. How many from this list Leaks : Anyma, Mathame, Adriatique, Martin Garrix, Elderbrook, Bob Moses, Rufus du Sol, Odesza, French 79, Lost Frequencies, The Blaze.

Let's play god mode : How many from Primavera Sound, MR LEAKS?

To be fair, I don't feel The Smile or Massive Attack in the music line of modern Sziget. Piss me off, because I love that kind of music. Sziget with a mix of Primavera Line-ups and Mad Cool line-ups, with the nice electronics acts they already have, would be heaven to me. I'd kill to see Slowdive at A38...

Show them who is the boss Leaks, drop the line up

I'd say Overmono and Idles/Big Thief
