ThisIsHappening Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 A good number of festivals announce entire lineups at once, so with no headliners remaining and tickets just about sold out I’d be surprised if they do a staggered release.

arcuse Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 They gotta keep that hype machine going with announcing new names every once in a while, now releasing the rest of the line up would be PR suicide. They gotta keep those announcements coming till atleast March/April tho (even when it's already sold out, yes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bury420 Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) For me they can just chill it till July. Seems impossible to see everything I wanna see in these 3 days. Main reason for me to travel to festivals are Kasabian (most of the time) but meanwhile I have to say that Thursday is the weakest of the 3 days (not even thinking about crying on that high level because even Friday is fantastic).

Not only it is a matter of a couple of weeks at most to get the full lineup, Bar Tool also said they are looking to release the schedule "as soon as possible". Of course it can all change completely, but atm we have a lot of reasons to expect announcements happening soon and not much for them not to...

Finge Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Last year they completed the line up at 8 feb to give an indication. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
with_tired_eyes Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Does anyone count, how many "possible PR-suicides" this festival could have? like not announcing JW or AM ;-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birchtree29 Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 I am fine with them waiting for the rest of the announcement for several weeks or even months but day tickets for any day is not sold out yet. They will try to complete the lineup as much as they can so that they can sell out day tickets as well. Even nos alive’s Saturday is sold out which have 10 artists that are already in Mad Cool.

birchtree29 Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Nos Alive is announcing an artist each day that are already in Mad Cool. (NIN Friday, AM Monday, The Last Internationale yesterday, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club today) Do you think we will get any artists from Nos Alive lineup that they have already announced?

Bar Tool already ruled out TDCC, the National, the Kooks and I think Friendly Fires too. Chvrches are the only one that's left. He also said that they worked together with NOS Alive so probably MC announcing bands first was part of their deal.

It is also quite interesting how they have Rag'N'Bone Man under Future Islands and Portugal The Man. I feel like we are going to get a second line artist for Saturday that will shift Rag'N'Bone Man to third line. Richie Hawtin shifted Kase.O from second to third line in the last announcement.

I thought Khalid is already in the lineup because of the other festival I'm going to. I also think Rag n' Bone Man doesn't belong to the second line so hopefully someone's big is coming. On the other hand I dont know Richie Hawtin and he's a second line artist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
with_tired_eyes Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 Well, we've got the same questions every page: How to get there, where to stay etc. Could someone make a summary and post (edit) that on the first page, so everyone could read this there?

big__phil Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 Does anyone know about shuttle bus...sorry - couldn't resist! Here's a different question - do the festival always do a 'tease' before announcing any more in the line up, or could they just drop it at any time? Also, at what point will we know stage splits and times? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the heck you remix "Woman" and essentially completely remove that guitar riff is beyond me. :\ That said, BRING ON WOLFMOTHER! That would be a great add.
