Altern8 have self confirmed for this year

 

 

so excited , saw him / them (not sure if it is just Mark Archer now) at boomtown and they were awesome 

Yes, great news - although I kind of hope Mark at least plays one set on his own. When they’re together now it’s often ‘Acid Techno’, which seems to be the accepted term for hardcore-like frenzied stuff at one hundred and stupid bpm!

Saw Mark play a proper acid house set last year as part of the Second Summer of Love 30th anniversary celebrations and he was excellent.

agreed , Mark's sets on his own are amazing he pulls out some proper classic tunes

Probably unusual opinion, but I’d love to see Booka Shade somewhere at Glastonbury. I fell in love with them all over again when I’ve seen their live set couple of weeks back. I know they’ve been playing nearly every possible festival in the universe, but they’re one of the best live acts I’ve seen.

Not that unusual... I like Booka Shade. Theyd go down well in the glade

I posted somewhere (can't find it now) a while back that Kevin Saunderson &/or Inner City had a UK festival date on Glasto Friday, which has got to be at Glasto.

The date of that show has now been changed to Sunday.

Kevin Saunderson owes us a Farm set after he had to cancel (for perfectly reasonable reasons!) a couple of years ago. Hope he does a solo set too...

Oooh, great shout on that sound system

Wow! I thought everyone was sick of seeing them everywhere! Nice one! I much prefer their older productions, but the live show is a great dosage of old and new and sounds incredible!

Wasn't expecting much on the first poster, but at least we've confirmed Jonny H! 

Most anticipated artist on this thread so well done I’d say. Can’t wait to see him for the first time!

Off to Printworks tonight for the AVA night, think I might go off home though after Joy O, not too arsed with Hunee, and would have to sit through him to watch Mall Grab.

Looking at that line-up, @Matt - Ed Banger Records, I think I’d be offski after Joy O too. It’ll be early enough to go somewhere else if you cba!

Have a smashing night.

    • 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.
