[kingcrawler]

Not sure about their other dates but The Breeders are playing Edinburgh a few days before Primavera so must be in for this too.

Tuesday in London, Saturday in France. 99.9% chance for either Thursday or Friday in the Forum.

Top work. Wouldn't be surprised if we see Jamie XX too, he's playing We Love Green on the same weekend, and although he played last year, that was as a last minute cover for Flaky Frank

you forgot DJ Coco and shellac

Sorry, no concrete hints given. 

[MatheauWillis]

A few smaller acts that I would hope to see which could potentially play:

(Sandy) Alex G's last tour date is at the end of May so he could potentially return off the back of Rocket's success.

Montero announced on twitter that he's playing a festival in Barcelona in the summer but didn't specify what one, his new record 'Performer' is out next month. Seen him support Mac Demarco twice last year and he was fantastic live.

Kyle Craft also has a new record out next month and he only has a handful of US dates announced that wrap up in April. Not sure if he's ever played Primavera before but seems like he would be a good fit.

[slowdive]

Montero would be nice. 

[puckno]

A list of artists with good records in 2017 (or upcoming records in 2018), not on the list above, that I would love to see at Primavera: Ariel Pink, Built To Spill, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Cherry Glazerr, Cloud Nothings, Cults, Curtis Harding, Daniel Romano, Daniele Luppi, Desperate Journalist, Emily Haines, Fever Ray, First Aid Kit, Hand Habits, Jeff Rosenstock, Jonathan Wilson, Mavis Staples, Nick Hakim, Strand Of Oaks, Sufjan Stevens, Susanne Sundfør, Tennis, The Dig, Wolf Alice, Yaeji, Yumi Zouma

Charlotte Gainsbourg has announced European dates for March/April, so she is at least touring...

And no Spanish date. Looks possible.

First Aid Kit plays both Coachella and Bonnaroo, so far with nothing in between. They will be travelling the globe earlier in the year, could return to Europe for a.o. PS?

Susanne Sundfør plays in Barcelona in March, but still has an opening in early June. Would like to see her live too, but unfortunately I can't go when she is near me.

Jamie XX is already helping at the merchandise stand and serving beer after, so he is ruled out

[MickeyJJ]

Rex Orange County is another one for the 'Very Likely' list. All points East the week before, and Bets Kept Secret the week after. Would be lovely in a sunset slot.

Built To Spill,

I'd love this, but not heard a thing about that?!

 

Pedro the Lion have announced a lot of dates which finish in America on the 24th May. I'd hope he will be flying over for it. 

[puckno]

Built To Spill has not given any details on title or date for a new record, but Doug Martsch revealed in interviews June 17 that they are working on 12 specific tracks for a new record. However, with their history on promises for new LPs there is no guarantee that the record will materialise in 2018. However, the band is playing some shows this spring and did so before christmas, so they are not in a break or anything. Time will show.

[JedTheHumanoid]

Wake And Listen have updated their post today, putting Ty Segall as 'non-official fixed group' (which for them is one level above strong rumor).

Nothing changed on the rest of their list

The dates fit perfectly for Ty Segall and a Spanish gap. Surely...

[LeFreak]

Can't help but feel that the list of acts 'ruled out' is a lot better than the list of acts 'strongly rumoured' but maybe that is just my preference.  I am really hoping we get at least a date for the announcement this week, the past few weeks have been like foreplay and I don't know how much more I can take...

[dentalplan]

Someone on Inforoo said that they heard Tool were a European exclusive for this (but that they also don’t believe it). Not one for me but maybe interesting.

A Perfect Circle is playing two shows (RaR/RiP) on Primavera weekend. So very unlikely.

[dentalplan]

Oh aye good point. Didn’t think about that.
