Surely not?!

Probably not, I can just see her really honing in on Solar Power with this tour. I can't quite remember who it was, but I remember seeing a band who just released a new record that was a major departure from their previous, and their setlist was entirely the new album, and a one song encore of just one of the previous hits.

Although I can see Lorde going new album heavy, you have to be pretty confident that your new album is insanely good (especially coming after an album like Melodrama) to pull something like this off or it’s a sure fire way to piss off the people coming to see you, even if you are saying the tour is more ‘intimate’ which is often used as an excuse to showcase new stuff. 

I still think there’ll be a smattering of old stuff, but like said above, perhaps rearranged to fit the new sound (although hopefully not ‘cause Green Light needs to go off).

Headlining PS does suggest there will be plenty of hits and bangers in there. If the tour was just these smaller shows then it's one thing, but if you're playing bit slots at festivals as well you're almost obliged to round out your setlist more. Unless you're The National.

Yep, starts at 10. Although “invalid code” is giving me palpitations after the Worthy Farm stream!

I'm sure we'll be fine, mate. As long as you're on the ball and have the code, it'll be no problem I'm sure.

Worst presale ever for me (got a ticket then got thrown into a waiting area after ticking the not a bot box which then meant the ticket was gone once I got out of it) but managed to get a Thursday Roundhouse ticket after refreshing for 8 minutes! 

Looks like a Friday date has been added too.

FFS that's really annoying! I'm having to really fiddle about with my holidays to make the Thursday one work, and then she adds a Friday one 😂

Yes and after various refreshes nothing changed. My page didn't change at all.

Mate get on the Friday one now - tickets up!

      Primavera Sound 2026

      By pipan · Posted

      TOP 10 acts (top 5 in bold😞   Blood Orange (ciutat)   Guitarricadelafuente   Oklou - Looks like I'm capable of enjoying music in the rain after all, just not the whole night.   Rilo Kiley   The Cure   Jade   Depresión Sonora   Gelli Haha (Parc del Forum) - Her music never really clicked with me. Until I saw her live.   MARINA   Six Sex (ciutat) - I was shocked how supersmall the venue was and that almost everyone (except for me) knew every word of every song (including the ones that were released this weekend!).   Honorable mention:   Ashnikko - missed the first 15 minutes (because of Gelli Haha) and I'm not really a fan of her music, but the show was an absolute blast.

      Totally agree about PinkPantheress stage choice. 'Luckily' for me, one of my main targets, fakemink, was absolutely awful, meaning that I left early and was in a surprisingly good spot at Cupra before it got totally packed.

      Primavera Sound 2026

      By pipan · Posted

      As many said before, not my favourite Primavera. sh*tty weather is something I'm not really used to when enjoying music. Poor communication (more than 1 hour long radio silence during the worst rain) didn't help, but the main problem was me. I decided to leave the venue after things seemed to be getting back to normal. Massive Attack were supposed to play again (with Hymn of the Big Wheel back on the setlist!) as were all other artists on the smaller stages (including Fcukers with one my favourite albums of the year). FOMO was at an all-time high. However, after 4 hours in the rain, I had to admit to myself that I'm not cut out for this. I wasn't even that soaked (water-proof jacket worked). I was just fed up with the rain, wind and cold and wasn't able to enjoy music anymore.   Also, they should stop ignoring the growth of some artists between signing them up and their actual performance. Both PinkPantheress and Ninajirachi sets were ruined for me by completely inadequate stage choice.   However, I felt very much the same way after the 2022 edition and have thoroughly enjoyed all subsequent editions. So I'm still buying early bird tickets for 2027 and hoping this was a hiccup not the start of a downward trend.

      I will definitely be buying a 2027 early bird pass, partially because of the priority reservation privileges for the Ciutat sets. Hopefully the organization will take action to improve upon this year's failings. Because I thought the free water options and sound quality were an improvement over last year, so clearly they can actually implement positive changes.   I also hope all the douchebag chompers get in the sea, cause I was more bothered by them than in the past few years.   Highlights: The Cure, Ninajirachi, Knocked Loose, Current 93, Blood Orange.
