I'm going to clinch at really small straws now, but a tour page at www.davidbowie.com was made a few days ago, that didn't exist before and isn't on any links on the website. Just from a logical point of view, why the hell would that be made if nobody was anticipating it to be used?

/this means it's 100% confirmed you know

Another thing to consider is that if he were to play live after such a long time, he would have to get a band playing the songs together again, and at least put practice in. I remember Pulp saying they had to put their back into rehearsing the songs to be good live again. It's quite obvious that no such practice has happened with a band, and so I can't see him doing a show in 6 months time. That said, I really have no clue how long it would take to get 25 songs rehearsed and sounding good

Isit quite obvious that no such practice has happened with a band? Is was absolutely obvious that he had done sod all for years until the single turned up...

The people around him had been lying through their teeth to conceal what was going on, they could just as easily be doing the same surely?

Having said this, sadly I dont think there is a chance at all of him playing, I would be chuffed to bloody bits if he was playing but my head is saying no and my heavy heart says the same :-(

    • some point this week the insta post says
    • I guess we should also not underestimate that the Slowdive sound person is probably not quite used to open-air daytime performances in such a large, open area. 🙂 I imagine it's very different from mixing the sound in a tent. Plus, even though I was openminded about it at first - you never know how things might sound or work out in a different setting if you don't try - I just don't think their sound is very suited for this kind of setting, it really benefits from darkness and a nice light show and all that. Still, nice that they got to give it a try.
    • i agree, was really disappointed by the Slowdive sound (we were fairly close to the podium) also if you consider that for all other main stage acts i saw they got it perfectly right.
    • Thanks man for sharing your thoughts. I would say i generally agree with you and do agree people close to the podium should position themselves further back if they want to have full conversations and apparently are not interested in the music; to fair it is mind boggling these people are even there as chatting gets so much easier in the back field. That said i did not really have the same experience as you, front rows for example at MBV, Men I trust, Big Thief, NewDad, Slowdive, where really into the music.    yes i BBK is really high on our list but we just realized it is next year 25 years of Primavera so perhaps we do one more. 
    • When does the Thursday lineup get announced? I see they had Moonchild Sanelly and Young Knives last year, would be cool to get something along those lines again.
