Tremousse Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Even in September and October... I'm afraid to be a little bit disappointed if they only come back with The Black Keys... Realistically the lineup is super great but the wait was so long that my brain has already assimilated the whole excitement. I saw some guys campaigning on Twitter for Frank Turner at NOS Alive. It would be a good idea ???EditEdit : he's not available Edited March 12, 2019 by Tremousse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan_ts Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 In 2017 they announced Royal Blood and some other great stuff in March, no panic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthSaul Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 On the 16th March last year the Thursday sold out. The Saturday had sold out on 5th December before that and then 3 day tickets sold out 7th December. 12th March this year and... everything available. I know the lineup is weaker near enough objectively but this marketing method can't be helping as we've said a million times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do, however, remember that I booked my 3 day ticket in March for 2017 so it obviously wasn't sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diogozsz Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 A french festival announced Sting for the 17th of July. Is he a NOS Alive type of act? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudagarmylad Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 I think one Gallagher brother be added. Liam Gallagher playing BBK on the 11th July could possibly do the 12th at Nos and Noel playing Mad Cool the 11th also. No chance both will play Nos.

40 Days Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 There's still a Iberian peninsula-shaped space in Tame Impala's current schedule, they haven't confirmed a summer UK date and surely won't just do Glastonbury so suspect they could still be in the frame. Think Foals are feasible too. In its current form the festival is extremely disappointing - it needs at least three or four heavyweight acts and can only guess they are being forced to hold back announcements because of artists' demands.

Alfred8876 Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) And now tickets costs 140eur, 3 months ago the price was 150eur. It's strange. Edited March 12, 2019 by Alfred8876 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthSaul Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 I never noticed before but NOS' website is pretty lazy with the lineup page being just a stuck on jpeg rather than a page where you can click on each band a la mad cool and most other festivals.
