(Not that I care. Just for the sake of it...)

How do you know this Matt?

emailing contact, someone who's recently emailed a few things of note. However with szgiet announcing this made me pretty certain he's telling the truth.

He also gave me a handful of other acts, although they do sound like V regulars.

Care to share?

Calvin Harris, Tinie Tempah, Rudimental, Chase & Status, McBusted, Bastille was the list he gave me.

I know... sounds very V which makes me think it's just educated guesses on who is likely to be there.

But it looks like Bastille are very likely due to recent tour dates, can't see reading getting them again either unless they really want to take all of V's acts.

So why do you constantly spew out nonsense if you have so many line up secrets in your inbox?

Because I haven't had anything in there with any weight, I thought I wouldn't even bother throwing it out due to how everything else goes down.

But I posted Bastille because... well... yeah would you be surprised if it didn't happen?

Actually yeah, you'd be shouted down immediately if you said what you'd heard in most sections. So fair enough.

Those are pretty standard V acts yeah, a bit too obvious though. You could probably get an email off your aunt saying those were playing V. :P

which is why i've stated that they are probably standard V acts.

I think that's clear though that this year, V will have V acts that you can smell a mile off!

If Calvin Harris one of the names you were emailed where would he play? Headline 4music again and V Possibly miss out on Avicii or so what IOW are doing and have him headline main with someone else under him ie Kasabian. I would be suprised if Calvin was announced

I'm stunned they play V at all, surely made for R&L. Although then again maybe Not Nineteen Forever wouldn't go down well in Leeds so maybe not ;):P

Agreed I dont think Courteeners will be at V again, I could see them at R&L or Latitude maybe subbing TDCC

    • TOP 10 acts (top 5 in bold😞   Blood Orange (ciutat)   Guitarricadelafuente   Oklou - Looks like I'm capable of enjoying music in the rain after all, just not the whole night.   Rilo Kiley   The Cure   Jade   Depresión Sonora   Gelli Haha (Parc del Forum) - Her music never really clicked with me. Until I saw her live.   MARINA   Six Sex (ciutat) - I was shocked how supersmall the venue was and that almost everyone (except for me) knew every word of every song (including the ones that were released this weekend!).   Honorable mention:   Ashnikko - missed the first 15 minutes (because of Gelli Haha) and I'm not really a fan of her music, but the show was an absolute blast.
    • Totally agree about PinkPantheress stage choice. 'Luckily' for me, one of my main targets, fakemink, was absolutely awful, meaning that I left early and was in a surprisingly good spot at Cupra before it got totally packed.
    • As many said before, not my favourite Primavera. sh*tty weather is something I'm not really used to when enjoying music. Poor communication (more than 1 hour long radio silence during the worst rain) didn't help, but the main problem was me. I decided to leave the venue after things seemed to be getting back to normal. Massive Attack were supposed to play again (with Hymn of the Big Wheel back on the setlist!) as were all other artists on the smaller stages (including Fcukers with one my favourite albums of the year). FOMO was at an all-time high. However, after 4 hours in the rain, I had to admit to myself that I'm not cut out for this. I wasn't even that soaked (water-proof jacket worked). I was just fed up with the rain, wind and cold and wasn't able to enjoy music anymore.   Also, they should stop ignoring the growth of some artists between signing them up and their actual performance. Both PinkPantheress and Ninajirachi sets were ruined for me by completely inadequate stage choice.   However, I felt very much the same way after the 2022 edition and have thoroughly enjoyed all subsequent editions. So I'm still buying early bird tickets for 2027 and hoping this was a hiccup not the start of a downward trend.
    • I will definitely be buying a 2027 early bird pass, partially because of the priority reservation privileges for the Ciutat sets. Hopefully the organization will take action to improve upon this year's failings. Because I thought the free water options and sound quality were an improvement over last year, so clearly they can actually implement positive changes.   I also hope all the douchebag chompers get in the sea, cause I was more bothered by them than in the past few years.   Highlights: The Cure, Ninajirachi, Knocked Loose, Current 93, Blood Orange.    
    • Similar feelings to a few others on here. Not my personal favourite edition but a long way from giving up on it. Felt overcrowded at times and there are just too many people there that don't seem to like music that much! Hardly went to main stages which was the plan. Highlights Ralphie Choo, rusowsky, Gorillaz, Geese, Gelli Haha, The Sophs, PinkPantheress, Dijon. Accommodation booked for next year. Thanks for your company and comments over the past year.
