Day splits for the Dance Stage are just so bizarre.. 8 acts announced for Friday, 3 for Sunday?

Dillon Francis has dropped a place since 2013 despite being more popular now, Porter Robinson somehow 5th down when he'll get a bigger crowd than Wilkinson who are headlining the tent that day (disregarding clashes he'd still get a bigger crowd).

Not that I really listen to much of them but aren't Boy Better Know more suited to 1xtra than the Dance Tent (let alone headlining it?)

I know the majority on here aren't that fussed about the Dance Tent but I really don't know what they're going for this year, there's plenty of suitable dance acts around despite Creamfields, especially with Global Gathering not happening this year. I know Knife Party / Rebel Sound / deadmau5 are all very strong 'dance' bookings but nevertheless I'm disappointed with the way that particular tent is shaping up..

TBF, when do any of the placing ever seem right?

I'm assuming by 'a little' they mean the whole set?

i am so happy that American Football got announced, Luckily got a ticket (which sold out in like 4 minutes) to see them in Leeds but the fact i get to see a band twice in 1 year who id never think i'd ever see has given me warm fuzzy feelings inside

    • 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.
