Didn't share any last year but! Caribou and au revoire Simone are playing both. Maybe there is hope for Placebo!!) http://www.balatonsound.com (Dillon Francis is playing both clearly sharing is a possibility)http://www.electricelephant.co.uk/lineup (don't expect anyone)http://www.tinthepark.com/line-up.aspx (we will be getting more of these...)http://www.ilosaarirock.fi/2014/ohjelma/ (could possibly get an act or two that is playing the saturday/Sunday...) http://www.rock-zottegem.be/line-up (not much announced... its only in Belgium...) http://m.bospop.nl/#home (not got much to offer...) There's one called open source festival in Germany... can't find their site but, we won't get anyone from their anyway. Now! For the Portuguese Festival lineups. You may realise they share acts but OA don't share acts with them, sadly.http://www.paredesdecoura.com http://maresvivas.meo.pt/cartazhttp://sudoeste.meo.pt/en/line-up http://www.superbock.pt/sbsr/pt/site.aspx?page_id=43http://www.optimusprimaverasound.com/artistas (trentmøller )http://rockinriolisboa.sapo.pt/cartaz/ So that's it... it took me 2 hours 45 to do! I've given enough info there for us to have a pretty good prediction as to who's playing and not. I'd appreciate it if people did reply Haha so I know I've not just wasted my time... Goodnight.

Placid Casual 1927 Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 I'll level with you, I opened 3 links! You've cast the net pretty wide so chances are the rest of the line up are there somewhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom Wall Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Intense research Hawky! Hope we get a couple more from T (Pharrell, Paolo, Calvin Harris would be nice..) gutted we won't be getting HAIM (playing Primevera) but still a lot of potential for others! (London grammar etc..)

SagitarianWorld Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Good work Hawky! Yesterday I heard a theory that is someone that nobody is expecting, and is the same headliner that Glastonbury, Bencassim, etc. To take so much time for them to announce the headliner (maybe they have the same contractual terms that Glasto has), It can't be Metallica because they are on tour on eastern Europe on the 12th of July, it makes no sense being Coldplay after they released two singles and announce a launch date for the new album, why to keep it a secret? it has to be some that has no dates at all and will be a total schoker. So...maybe David Bowie? Prince? Or some surprise reunion? R.E.M., Radiohead, Led Zeppelin? I'm getting a little annoyed with this delay...

Dom Wall Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Same (with the delay)! Glasto is Metallica, but with Beni and Optimus yet to announce I reckon it's very likely they will share the final act; RHCP looking likely, or someone crap, or someone with no dates as of yet (hence announcing them all at once and hence the holdup..)

Hawky Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) From what I did last night, I'm trying to work out who is likely... 1. Lily Allen 2. Jack Johnson (but only available on the 10th) 3. Major lazer 4. We are scientists 5. Courteeners (only announced for beni) 6. Knife Party?... As for the final headliner, only Reason I can imagine RHCP holding off is they want to release the release date of their new album first... or even finish it then release a tour. I don't know how far along they are with it, they seem to be keeping quiet. Shock release? Edited April 15, 2014 by A_Hawky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawky Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Artists I don't think we will get (sadly): 1. London Grammar. 2. Outkast. 3. Placebo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SagitarianWorld Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) You can add Aerosmith, Kasabian, Franz Ferdinand, The Killers, The Offspring and Kaiser Chiefs. * I think Manic Street Preachers and/or Soundgarden could be added soon to the line-up, but not for headliners. Early January there was a rumour that Nine Inch Nails would play in Portugal, but I guess they don't fit in the same day as Bastille or Foster The People.

HarryP95 Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 I think it is going to be outkast, look at the tweets by some dude with 105k followers, google translate won't work for some reason but he clearly mentions optimus alive and outkast https://twitter.com/EDDisplay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryP95 Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 type in optimus alive outkast to twitter also, i know it is just some randomers but i think we have sussed they are playing. But will they headline? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawky Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Absolutely top find. Obviously means nothing but there's hope! And I think they'd sub! That guy also mentions Snoop! Thanks for the praise on my findings btw guys. I'll keep digging. We will know the lineup before its announced at this rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawky Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 I'm reading too, and loving all your research, just don't have much to add Will be our first time and don't know much about the festival, bought the tickets just for arctic monkeys so everything else is a bonus... Hoping for RHCPs tho! And just noticed your also posting on the beni forum, are you going to both? Will be our forth year at beni.. No, I was.contemplating beni but couldn't afford it I just like posting on the forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SagitarianWorld Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Outkast will play Switzerland on the 10th and Netherlands on the 13th. It could happened. Wednesday is a fine day for the announcement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson19 Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 It's going to be them! Top research that Hawky, had a look through a few of those line ups so many good acts about at the time then you get to the other Portugal festivals and it's damn damn damn!! Get sharing optimus.

Hawky Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) Thanks guys. My question is... do you think Outkast fly their set from country to country or do you think they transport it in a coach/ lorry? To drive from Optimus Alive to the festival in Rotterdam takes about 21hours. If they do drive, say they sub OA and start at 21:00 finish at 22:30... pack up and leave straight away- say they set off at 23:30, 21 hours from then (at least) would mean they got to Rotterdam at... about 21:00. The headliner normally starts at 21:30/22:00 at North Sea Jazz Festival Haha... TIGHT SQUEEZE! THEYD HAVE TO FLY ALL THEIR EQUIPMENT Edited April 16, 2014 by A_Hawky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprawlii Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Hey guys ! I read this forum for a long time, but i just registered today. I leave in Portugal so i will try to help any question about Optimus Alive. Hip hop isn't very popular in Portugal, so i don't belive that the 3º headliner will be Outkast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
