I'm going to need a bit of help here, guys. I'm nowhere near home but got the eFest tweet and have popped into a local hospital to find a bed.

If I'm going to be here until 7pm, it's going to get very awkward. Already the duty nurse has asked me who I am and why I keep looking at the clock. I've pointed out the tweet but instead of the excitement I expected, there are anxious glances from the ward reception and hushed whispers among the staff.

What do I say??

Neil can you confirm to us that you know the time of the line up announcement? Not confirming the time to us, just that you know when it is. That'd clear a thing or two

      Tour Announcements & Upcoming Gigs

      By thatTFBguy · Posted

      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

      By joozy · Posted

      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...
