Then they teased 10, possibly referencing the "Ten" album, before announcing 10 new bands. By the way, the tweet was just removed. Looks like they got busted for being too obvious... maybe this does bode well for other festivals having them as headliners: Edited January 17, 2018 by boaboaboa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's massive, perfect for him acoustic-wise and it could be ticketed. That said, he hasn't toured in years. It's still highly unlikely. He really, really is. Ten years since his last tour means a generation of gig goers has not had the opportunity to see him. He's top of the bill of any festival in Europe, not comparable with a Michael Gira solo show, Kamasi Washington or any other Auditori show. Things in there are niche within an already niche setting, not one of the most influential artists of all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus: They cancled in 2015. Eels would be brilliant! That Maifeld Derby is pretty good for a small fest. This could be the year of the cancelled acts making up for it - Bjork, Eels, Rodriguez - Father Primavera blesses you and offers forgiveness . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Jack White's tour was released yesterday, that's probably him. Also: The Mad Cool social media guys are a bunch of morons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
festivalguy97 Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) Primavera and Mad Cool are big rivals, I can´t see how they can both have Arctic Monkeys at their lineup, last year and in 2016 they didn´t share any bands, why do they have to share this year, and a big name like Arctic Monkeys? Also their first concert is in USA, why do they have to do Barcelona, then US and then Spain again? Also Gabi made it clear he doesn´t know anything about them. I´d rather consider Chance The Rapper and Kendrick more thatn AM. Anyway the line up is imminent, next week is the last week of January, so be patient and wait 6/7 days and we´ll have the lineup.

festivalguy97 Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Ok so Mad Cool just posted this, it means that they´re not announcing Arctic Monkeys yet, it will be 14 bands and Jack White I bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm curious where we will see them confirmed before that show... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC is about to have twice as many bands than in 2016/2017. It has already shared Spoon with Bilbao BBK (on the same weekend last year) and Foals, who subbed for Foo Fighters, with FiB (on the following weekend), among others. I don't know if they will share a actual headliner but the exclusivity will be pricey for a lineup that's already pretty expensive and, the tickets will eventually be sold out anyway (actually, they already sold out before the announcement). Furthermore, the CM has refused to comment on exclusivity, probably because it didn't serve the festival's interests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe they´re just playing with the public to raise sells, also I bet that tomorrow they´ll announce Jack White and 14 small names, to fill all stages, and maybe on friday or maybe next week they´ll announce Arctic Monkeys.

xxialac Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) For Mad Cool, they are still selling day tickets and at the very least 3 day vip tickets are still available. It's a sensible strategy for them to sell a bucketload before the competition. Edited January 17, 2018 by xxialac 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Courtney Barnett and Kurt Vile are on the same bill - chance for those guys to hook up on stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
