Also, does anyone know the likelihood of Wolf Alice and/or London Grammar please? When Bar Tool was asked if Jack White was a headliner he answered, "..." Probably as close to a confirmation was we're going to get. Haven't seen anything to rule out Arctic Monkeys yet. Still fit the criteria Bar Tool gave as a British band with an 'e' in their name.

Also, does anyone know the likelihood of Wolf Alice and/or London Grammar please? Yeah as ThisIsHappening says, Jack White is all but confirmed for me. He seems to ignore comments about Arctic Monkeys, plenty of people have asked though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnybegood Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 My opinion is that is almost certain that Arctic Monkeys and Jack White will co-headline friday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gucci Piggy Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 Only thing is, Jack White's also been all but confirmed for Primavera. Could they share him? The Primavera booker did say he doesn't see Mad Cool sand Primavera as being in competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Primavera booker did say he doesn't see Mad Cool sand Primavera as being in competition. I can see this happening. Both bookers seem to be hinting at him and while I've not read too much about Mad Cool it'd be strange for Gabi to hint strongly at him for Primavera if he wasn't playing, especially after he'd already been pretty open about booking Jack White. The Cure did both Primavera and Bilbao BBK in 2012 so there is a precedent for Primavera sharing headliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah that quote from the Prima organiser and his 3 arena dates in London have made him look unlikely for Wireless for a while, now. R&L probably the most likely UK festival for him.

clasher Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 The Cat Empire have 2 EU gigs scheduled in late June/early July. It will have been 2 years since their last european show.

Let's hope they come to Mad Cool and NOS Alive ! One of my favourites, never managed to catch them live though. It is time for another european tour - I'll go to Austria if nothing else, but there's surely more dates to come (they aren't coming to Europe fot two gigs, are they?). Including - hopefully - one cool Madrid festival 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeppelin Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 The Cat Empire were at one point my favourite ever gig, until I saw them again. Just incredible - would love to see them there! Gutted to see The Chems and The Prodigy ruled out though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reliable source on that AFAIK, but he's on We Love Green (France) on the Saturday of PS. Everytime We Love Green is on the same weekend, both festivals share tons of acts. Primavera makes perfect sense for him, and I'm pretty sure he's never played there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar Tool is a user on a Spanish music forum who is also the Community Manager for Mad Cool, he has released a lot of hints to line-up on the day before each announcement and also seems to be pretty happy to answer questions regarding Mad Cool and festival bookings in general.

arcuse Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 I booked NOS Alive via Festiticket I think this year and they posted (via the mail yes) me the ticket and I had to exchange it at the entrance and everything was fine. So I'm sure it's fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
