Wolf Parade announced European tour with nothing on May 30th or June 2nd. I'd be quite happy to see them again. 

I'd like to see them too but those dates make it quite unlikely, unless they're on the Wednesday I can't see them playing.

Yeah just seen that. Still wouldn't rule them out though

Ah my mistake, I thought the Thursday was the 30th. Guess that's them out too then!

Modest Mouse US tour:

I thought Field Day were announcing today. In a day or two I guess now.

It had better be good or they are APE toast.

Don't be too quick to rule them out- they have 4 nights in a row a bit down the line in this tour, they're not afraid of hard work. Might still fit Saturday

God I would love to see Modest Mouse there. My first ever gig, Manchester Academy in 2003, pogoing like an absolute badman to 'Black Cadillacs'. 

Would be surprised if Wolf Parade don't play on the Saturday too

Edit: Although Vienna to Barcelona to Prague would seem a bit silly...

Yeah I think Wolf Parade will miss out but Modest Mouse is looking promising.

Beck did 4 nights in a row last Summer so the guy has stamina and there was a rumour that he might play Primavera the first day so I'm sticking to that! I doubt he is diva enough that they would blacklist him forever (any anway the blame is more likely to lie with the agent). 

MBV seems less likely based on Gabi's comment.

What did he say about MBV?!

Damn.

Still though, with MBV doing that Sonic Mania in August I still feel like we'll get them.

Please don't take this away from me.

Hope so too. That was over a month ago so perhaps the picture has changed.

Two months and a half, actually. A week or two later, he tweeted the poster will be delayed.

I'm still upset about David Byrne. Why, David, why?!

What about St.Vincent? I know she´s doing Vida Festival but it´s like 50kms away from Barcelona, two different festivals with two different promoters?

Lineups were completely different last year and the year before so would expect the same again.

Gabi was asked about crossovers, he answered: "Maybe."

What kind of crossovers? With Vida Festival, or other festivals like Benicassim and Mad Cool?

He was asked on both BBK and Vida, that was his answer. Sounds like he has no problems sharing with other festivals.

He was also asked specifically about sharing with Vida and he said there weren't any problems.

Btw she's very unlikely.

Also someone in PS forum claims that in Lorde is 100% on the lineup, and people seem to treat that user as a reliable guy.

Arctic monkeys 100% doing primavera this year. From the horses mouth so to speak
