An album by Bright Eyes aka Conor Oberst is called" I'm wide awake its morning" . So maybe he's a hidden stage act.

Too much of a stretch for me, especially considering the language used wasn't english. Plus he's touring the states then.

Hi guys, does anyone know how easy it is to find weekend tickets for sale closer to the festival date? Obviously  it´s sold out now so wondering if it´s common for people to sell their tickets on if they can´t go etc.

Made a list yesterday evening of everything I want to see from the lineup. It's around 50 acts long. That's one hell of a lineup!

I do think we should expect some surprises in the lineup, but the poster is stacked at the moment, and I haven't even mentioned the rest of the week!

Of course there will be clashes and we'll have to prioritize, but that's what makes Primavera Sound so unique. The booking have done amazing work on this one.

Yeah it's ridiculous isn't it? My list is very similar to yours the quality is ridiculously good.

- The Afghan Whigs
- Miguel
- Pinegrove
- The Zombies
- Grace Jones
- King Gizzard
- The Magnetic Fields
- Grandaddy
- Teenage Fanclub
- Shellac

All recommendations appreciated!

Gentlemen, Wildheart, Cardinal, Odyssey & Oracle, *shrug*, Nonagon Infinity, 69 Love Songs (tho it's a tall order), The Sophtware Slump, Bandwagonesque and probably 1000 Hurts.

I think those albums listed were my first tasters of those acts then I worked my way around their other stuff*. Tho with the Zombies I never really delved into their other stuff but I think they're touring O&O so it's a logical recommendation.

*Gizzard aside as I've been a fan for a while, but Nonagon has really been their breakthrough.

Cheers! Playlist is being drafted currently!

Every time I see this getting a bump I think something else has been announced :'(

Although likewise in having a ridiculous amount of acts I want to see (and not even just stuff I have a casual interest in - stuff I REALLY want to see). Preparing to have my heart broken by some awful clashes. For me personally this lineup pisses all over every other announced festival tenfold, maybe too much so. Absolutely can't wait.

Legit?

Bon Iver playing 01:10? I doubt it

No chance, some illogical choices and plenty of wishful thinking. Aphex Twin will perform after Bon Iver, Slayer will probably clash with either and The Magnetic Fields are confirmed to play two Auditori concerts (Friday and Saturday), so won't perform on the festival's main stages.

He could be in theory, James Blake and alt-J both started playing around 01:30 two years ago, but he will not follow Aphex Twin under any circumstances. AT will most likely either close the main stage or play the 2:50 Ray-Ban slot.

They seem very late this year announcing the afternoon gigs. Wonder why. Last year was in mid-February...

As far as I know, the Beach Club acts, most of them anyway, are included in the line-up that has already been announced.

You're right. I meant *officially* announced, however, as they always are.

Seems official for me. Haven't noticed any specific post on social media, but the information is on the website.

[xxialac]

You don't understand. Every year they make a big 'official' announcement about the afternoon concerts with its own poster and sponsored by Martini etc. They don't simply add the names to the schedule.

Think last two years this happened in Jan/Feb.

In 2016 this official announcement was made on February 18:

But who needs a poster when we already have all the facts?
