AdamWillingham Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Are they definitely headlining? I've only seen Primavera say "playing", are people just assuming they're headlining? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 If The Strokes are playing Primavera, they're headlining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamWillingham Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 If The Strokes are playing Primavera, they're headlining. I thought they would be, but just wasn't sure because it just said "playing" on their social networks. I also thought they wouldn't go through all the effort of putting them on a billboard if they weren't headlining, and they did a similar thing last year with Arcade Fire if I'm not mistaken? Either way I cannot wait to see The Strokes, been waiting ages to see them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilbeyene Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 I think Foo Fighters will be announced soon. They are touring in Europe at the end of may and still don't have spanish dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way I cannot wait to see The Strokes, been waiting ages to see them! Yeah that's a fair point. Would very much bank on them headlining though with the banner thing you mentioned and they're quite sizeable for a PS act and they have six headline slots nowadays. Hope they get announced for Porto because that's my best shot at making it to one of these. I think Foo Fighters will be announced soon. They are touring in Europe at the end of may and still don't have spanish dates. Not really the vibe for Foo Fighters. They're meant to be returning in autumn or winter I believe, so if they're neglecting mainland Europe a bit then they should make up for it. Can see a reunited Ride, Faith No More and JAMC joining as headliners alongside a couple of bigger ones and The Unicorns, Sleater-Kinney, Interpol, Swans and DFA1979 being in prominent slots.

Mushy25 Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I think Foo Fighters will be announced soon. They are touring in Europe at the end of may and still don't have spanish dates. Playing Ireland on the Saturday of Primavera with some English dates beforehand. Be tough to fit them in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilbeyene Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) Oh, ok. Bye bye Dave! Anyway if Faith No More come I'm the happiest guy alive. I saw them at Sziget 09 for the reunion tour and that gig is still in my top 5 concert of my whole life. Mike Pattons is a fuc*in genius!

Dietediet Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 New poster in the center of Barcelona: seems like Ride is the second headliner. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B2t25b5IcAAgp2V.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dietediet Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) Are Ride headlining? I hope they won't but they were announced just like an headliner.. DiS: Wow! Primavera?Mark Gardener: Yeah, we're headlining the second stage. And Field Day too. We've been talking to the people from Primavera for about three months now and they made us some great offers without them even knowing we were considering reforming.

dentalplan Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I'm pretty sure the headliners on the first and second stages are considered 'the headliners' though so Ride will be headlining as stated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theimportance Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Do the first and second stage headliners ever conflict? This will be my first time out there, very excited! And, according to that same DiS interview: The last time all four of us properly jammed together was for a project called 'Coming Up For Air' which was a tribute to Sonic Youth that went out on Channel 4 in the early 2000s. And now we're doing Primavera next year and they're thinking about it as well so it's kind of come round full circle. Thurston always seems to be around whenever Ride get back together! So Thurston Moore band a possibility as well? They were great when I saw them earlier this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retromoz Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) i would assume they are 'headlining' just as Slowdive were 'headlining' last year.... Oh, and the 1st & 2nd stages face each other. When one act finishes on one stage, the next act starts on the other stage.

JC-Mo'Fucka Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Is primavera lively, a bit of a fun atmosphere? Im considering it but it looks a bit wet, just a couple of stages in the city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retromoz Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) there is 6 'proper' stages. Plus an unsigned thing. And a few secret things..... It WAS fun last year. Edited December 1, 2014 by retromoz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) Looking forward to the announcement for this now. Should be this month, right? Pretty sure the only announced acts are Ride for both and The Strokes and Patti Smith for Barcelona and Porto respectively, but looking at the last.fm page some self confirmations have been unearthed. Sunn O))), Sun Kil Moon and Gui Boratto for Barcelona, Mac Demarco for Porto and The New Pornographers at unspecified ones. Loads of acts touring around the time like the Sound City headliners, the Field Day lineup and RTJ, Foxygen, Swans, American Football and Interpol in the area at the time too. Shaping up nicely.

Tilted Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Speculation on other forums that the announcement should be in a couple of weeks, seemingly all the line up is now in place, I'm getting excited now! Sleaford Mods appeared on their promoters page as playing but promptly disappeared, so fingers crossed they're actually booked to play. Love this festival so much, has relegated End of the Road to second place in terms of consistent line ups in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
