Primavera Sound 2019

[xxialac]

Pretty much every year, we get the same set of teases, misdirection and cryptic messages.

Would just love a straight poster drop one year, no gimmicks.

So J Balvin is almost confirmed at Primavera?

Mad Cool lineup looks pretty average, though they have got rid of VIP space to their credit.

A mashup of last years Primavera with some uninteresting ( or straight up bad ) acts added in, like Greta Van Fleet. Still, there’s a lot of good music and the price is low, the fact that there are no VIP pits is great, so good for them and for anyone who’s looking to go there

So the Boca vs River Plate game was rescheduled to December 9th, it would be funny if they put the lineup out on that day because Gabi compared the lineup to a Boca - River game.

So the lineup is going to be delayed, delayed again, postponed, rescheduled, delayed and then called off?

And then moved to Argentina.

Dental quoted me? I don't know what to do with my hands

Interpol, Kurt Vile, Mac DeMarco and Cigarettes After Sex are all playing Best Kept Secret. I can’t see the latter two playing but Interpol and Kurt Vile must be nailed on now.

I feel like the lineup could be released entirely through Primavera Radio. Just thinking as it begins broadcasting on Monday and all of this has started kicking off the week before...

It could be. But what about the "New Normal" thing? 

[xxialac]

They love a gimmick so it won't be straightforward. They could do something like an advent calendar with a new name each day.

Does feel like we'll get it in December not January this year, especially now that you have August European festivals announcing already.

You can get notifications by email if you want. Just follow the topic and adjust your notification preferences. Easier way if you've got the "updates anxiety"!

That's a great shout! Thanks

Playing at local Vida Festival.

I too would love to be a tease in Gabi's place

[Martin_89]

Well, "The New Normal" is back again in every social media channel... The really know how to build hype!

Merci.

Gabi's posted 'WTF' on Twitter.

Sometimes I think being able to come up with teases is his main motivation to run the festival.

do they? the lineup dropped all at once last year?

sure, there was the video with people's reactions, but we didn't learn anything from that.

we only got the lineup when the wild west video/poster came out in January.

I thought they were teasing something then the Idles leak came out so they just brought forward the announcement?
