Though Barca will obviously have much more overall quality. It just... It's odd. I'd love to see Arctic Monkeys there but they don't fit. I can only go to one of NOS Alive's days, I'm going to the second day to watch QOTSA and The National, my fav band. I'd freaking love AM at NOS PS as I've already bought the three day pass but... ugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest are all highly likely. I'd love to see Phoenix tho. Ezra Furman will play PS, that I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crowds everywhere else at Primavera are super friendly and respectful, with the exception of the two main stages during peak times where there can be noisy talkers. Definitely a creeping in of this in recent years. Yep, I realised after having posted my reply that the "chat-problem" only occurred on the main stages. Over the past years, I can't remember not loving every second at Kate Tempest (was it Pitchfork?), Peaches (Hidden), John Talabot (beach), Belle & Sebastian (Primavera stage), ChkChkCk (Rayban)... you name it. I guess people just go to Mordor because of the big names but then don't give a shit. As for the ongoing clothes-discussion: Why can't we celebrate versatility? You get so many different types of bands and musical styles, people from all over the world, there's bound to be all sorts and that's what makes life interesting, doesn't it? I had no clue there was a secret dress-code everyone had to comply with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s a new Arctic Monkeys track with an album announcement etc, surely they’ll just announce the festival dates then too? then why did the Radio X teaser have a riff from an Oasis song in it?

And Arctic Monkeys, Björk, Nick Cave, Lorde and The National are almost official by now, who do you think could be the big name remaining? Beck? My Bloody Valentine? Vampire Weekend? 6th big name must be hip hop. Wu Tang? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think The The will be at PS, they play Friday at Hearthland ( as specified on their facebook page ), so still very possible they'll play either Wednesday or Thursday in Barcelona. My guess is that they'll headline Wednesday night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxialac Posted January 27, 2018 Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 I’m very surprised there’s no chatter about Father John Misty. Looks a cert for a sub spot and one of the best live acts on the circuit. Has played festivals recently with an orchestra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good. He released an excellent album in 2017, after playing the Pitchfork in 2016. Playing Ireland on the Sunday and none of the France festival as of now (probably Field Day on the Saturday). I bet he'll get the Primavera stage, which is not the same one he referenced two years ago, but that's still cool. 1 minute ago, xxialac said: I’m very surprised there’s no chatter about Father John Misty.
