conorworld Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 I wonder if John Talabot will randomly pop up and do another disco set this year. That was my highlight of last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowdive Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 to me it sounds like it's gonna happen. but maybe it's just some wishful thinking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll get them again this year, they aren't normally announced until a couple of months after the line up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a daily line up too, just no stage splits or anything obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatkeeper Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 I missed out on the Wednesday gigs last year - arrived too late. this year we'll be arriving in Barcelona 6:40pm on the Wednesday - so whats the score with the ticket exchange on Wednesdays? - is it usually in same place at parc del forum? - what time does it usually close on Wednesday? really want to see Goat and Suede!

Does anyone know at which time the Wednesday headliner ussualy plays? I'd love to see Suede, but we're arriving not until 9 pm... Seeing Goat twice in a weekend would be great as well!

Last year Albert Hammond jr. played at 21:15 and OMD at 22:25, so I think Suede and Goat will play more or less at the same times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if they weren't asked? Their omission is a serious bummer. Great lineup, sure, but this is a major, glaring flaw. WTF is Primavera's issue? So regular tickets are going to sell out by next week.

That doesn't make sense. Why hold back a band as only a potential replacement when they haven't toured in 20 years instead one of the many bands that was just there the last couple years? More likely they just weren't booked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowdive Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 Last year they announced ratatat later without a special reason. 2014 the same with future islands as far as i remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never been to Primevera before and had no idea it was so eclectic. Lots of really weird and wonderful stuff buried within the line up. Catch Moses Sumney. His album isn't out yet, but his live shows are phenomenal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last few years a few bands have been added later on Wedding Present played before Blur unannounced a few years ago. Plus the so called Hidden Stage line up won't be announced until nearer the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesiamaduck Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 Organizers saying it'll sell out Wednesday morning or Thursday at current rate, if you want in now's the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yaniv297 Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 Suede 'Night Thoughts' is out two days ago. It will be played in full at the festival, in addition to the free 'Greatest Hits' Suede show in Wednesday. Anyway, I'm yet to hear it but according to all reviews/people I spoke with, it's really really good - much better than expected. Some called it their best since 'Dog Man Star'. It's quite an ambitious concept album, not just another mediocre nostalgia album like Bloodsports. I'll listen to this today, but by all I've heard so far, we might be in for a treat with this one... (of course, the only other album to be played in full in the festival is 'Pet Sounds', so that's quite a competition there...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
