Looks like we're still due a good 15 odd more acts. Hopefully a decent number are smaller bands like the fat whites and a few DJs like skream.

Saturday looks weird to me, Lily Allen before the Libertines and Sebastian ingrosso after?

Thursday is basically 3 co-headliners with Ellie goulding, c&s and tinie.

Yeah it ain't the best line up, but not many festivals are that strong this year. Hopefully when it's filleds out it looks better

They have clearly had a nightmare organising it. 20th year and they get Ellie Goulding to support Tinie Temper?! haha...

And personally I think it was very cheeky of them to release the original poster with the Krafterwerk, Iggy, Massive Attack poster as thats insinuating they'd be playing.

McDonalds couldn't release a poster of a huge new burger and then not sell it!

Looks like they blew the budget on the Libertines so had to bump Tinie Tempah & Paolo up. Basically looks like Spain's equivalent to V Festival, but I guess that will sell well for the type of audience it attracts.

Partly that I guess, but I think it's more they just couldn't get anyone else. Pretty obvious Libs are a late addition so if AEG hadn't got them back together for Hyde Park FIB would have been screwed.

The two middle days are decent enough, pretty standard Beni lineup. It's the Thursday and Sunday that lets it down.

To be fair they weren't insinuating that at all & you'd have to be a little bit naive to think they were...

Announcements everyday this week

"#FIB2014 :: Day lineup! :: More acts still to be confirmed every day, including Thursday 17. (http://www.fiberfib.com )"

bad translation!

The original says "Cartel por días :: Faltan nombres por añadir, incluido el jueves 17 de julio".

It doesn't mean that will be announcements eveyday this week... just mean that will be more bands added to every day of the festival

Seriously dissapointed with the lineup myself.

There is not really anyone there that I would pay £20 to see, let alone the weekend. (personal taste)

How they can call those Headliners I have no idea..

How many regularly appear in the charts top 10 or even 20 when they release new stuff.

But hey, still have my flights/hotel/ticket and a night in Madrid booked.

Just hope they add a couple of REAL headliners..!!

    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
