Mercury Nominees can also be part of a mind-expanding line-up, not just headliners of course ;)

Some of these suggestions are fantastic as well and are on my personal fantasy Blissfields line-up - you have us playing in the big leagues as they'd say in the good ol' US of A!

Headliner will be great no matter what ;)

Awww I'd like to come to that but I'm at Bat For Lashes in Brighton that night.

Whilst I'm still sticking with Maps as potential mercury nominated band at Blissfields, here is another suggestion..... what about Luke Haines ? He used to be the singer in The Auteurs who nearly won the very first Mercury, narrowly pipped at the post by Suede ??? He realeased a fantastic book (Bad Vibes) earlier this year and has been playing a few live shows.....

      Tour Announcements & Upcoming Gigs

      Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December).

      Primavera Sound 2026

      After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.

      You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
