Do you think we will start to see bigger names coming ? Like who? There likely won't be anyone bigger than the 4 headliners added Edited February 15, 2017 by gregory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zbo Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 I think he's meaning other main stage acts on 7th we only have the foos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidthefly Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Exactly. Look at last year there were bands like Biffy, Foals, Tame Impala and 1975 on the main stage under card . Seems like smaller names overall this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidthefly Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Point was over the 3 days we are missing a fair bit of main stage bands. Would like Royal Blood, Prophets of Rage, Lorde to name but 3. The Thursday looks strong but other 2 days need a bit more to be honest.

I think all 3 are a possibility, RB and Prophets are in Spain around then. Hope you get your wish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agreed, the line-up is for the moment a bit too chill-pop orientated with Spoon, Rhye, The XX, Glass Animals, Wild Beasts, Warpaint, Alt-J, The Kills, Savages and Blossoms. It's not really a downside cause with the sun etc it will be good feelings. But it sounds like a Primavera line-up without the diversity, need other kinds of music now (rock/folk/electro or even rap, but crowd raisers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least they're all pretty good acts, compared to some of the other stuff touring this summer.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arcuse Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Questioning what the night program is gonna be like, last year they had Grimes, M83, Soulwax, Hot Chip, Four tet, Ratatat etc.. I'm hoping for Moderat and Justice to be added, also Jamiroquai & Röyksopp would be nice adds.. I also feel like the line up feels a little bit empty on the undercard but I think the mixing is better now, if you compare the first 2 days of last year and the last day, I think you notice a difference in how stacked the first 2 look and how it lacks a bit on the last day. I'm positive for the next announcements tho, I'm expecting Royal Blood and others that were mentioned above to be added later. It's just a bit frustrating to get just one new name at a time, around what time is the line up mostly complete bc we're already february and we have like 19 names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Liam Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Justice will surely be exclusive to Primavera Sound sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cactusgirl Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Tickets booked 5-10th. Can't wait. Would be over the moon if Royal Blood announced and as someone else said they are at other festivals in Europe around the same time. Would love to see Hurts announced too for a bit of electro-pop.

Mushy25 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 I had some time in work the other day, so I made up a possible running order for the days so far. Thursday I guessed had 1/2 later acts on the second stage, with an opener for the main stage. Saturday was the same, but with more mid-level second stage bands. Friday had The Kills as opening main, then two gaps before Foos. I think Jimmy Eat World could take the spot after The Kills as they're around, would like Royal Blood in before Foos, assuming Biffy won't play two years running. There was also a late night band second stage and one or two slots throughout the day open, so I am hoping for some more acts that I'd really want to see. Most of the late night gaps would be DJ's/electronic/dancier acts I'd assume too, maybe get Trentmoeller in if he wasn't there last year.
