Whilst there has been all the mixed (mostly negative) reactions to all three headliners this year .. Let's be honest here .. The Foos would have smashed it.

Such a shame they had to pull miss out.

enjoyed Flo more than I think would have the Foos tbh

You would also have enjoyed her subbing then as she was supposed to be doing.

I throught Flo was great, but didn't feel like a Pryamid headlining show .. Whereas the Foos would certainly have brought that feel along.

So dave ghrol play a full set this weekend in the us and declares he wouldn't have missed this one for the world.

how much difference would the extra 8 days rest made ro his condition?

Could he have done glasto?

Would him performing (even sat down as a bit of a novelty) made your weekend even better?

I'm happy they pulled out in the end, it meant I got to see The Libertines who were fantastic and Hot Chip who were the act of the weekend and I only went along to see them as I had nothing else to see

If the foos didn't cancel I would of seen them and I would of got to see a headline set by numbers instead of coming away from the West Holts thinking 'that was special'

    • Maybe hopeful but get Knocked Loose on the Sunday opposite the legend. Similar to the slot Turnstile had in 2022. Would be absolutely phenomenal.
    • One of my personal favourite bands at the minute - MUNA. Was very surprised not to see them booked in 2023 with their last album but hopefully they'll be around next year. Very fun new album from these guys and, as aforementioned, another standout for me at Big Weekend.
    • Absolutely second this. Were great at Big Weekend and already have a great catalogue of songs forming so far. Would love to see them on the farm!
    • A mixed first day for us. First of all, we were honestly quite shocked that there was no security check at all at the VIP entrance around 7:30 PM. No bag check, nothing. I’ve attended Primavera many times over the years and this felt surprisingly lax for an event of this size. Did anyone else experience the same?   Another disappointment was the communication regarding the weather situation. Primavera has some of the best sound systems and speaker setups in the festival world, yet somehow they were not able to make a single clear announcement explaining what was happening. Instead, people were expected to read tiny messages on screens in Mordor while thousands were left wondering what was going on. A simple and direct audio announcement would have gone a long way.   On a lighter note, this guy absolutely made my day. Sitting right in front of the Estrella Damm terrace, wearing nothing but a long-sleeve shirt, jeans and a pair of Converse All Stars, he remained completely unbothered by the rain. While everyone else was looking for shelter, he sat there wearing sunglasses, calmly watching the crowd as if he was watching a movie.   Absolute main character energy!
    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today.
