birchtree29 Posted April 15, 2019 Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 Don't keep your hopes too high for a headliner. They waited 4 months to announce Prophets of Rage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't need trousers though surely (especially as someone from Ireland!), it doesn't go lower than about 20 degrees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jparx Posted April 15, 2019 Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 (edited) Interesting news about the surprise(s). Sounds like they've had numerous plans fall through which has impacted the lineup too. Certainly think Gambino could have been someone they were in advance talks with and pulled out. He actually compliments Bon Iver quite well so I could see him lined up for the Thursday.

Honestly the lineup looks pretty weak compared to last year's Don't think they can help it tbf - the festival circuit in general is looking weaker than its 2018 equivalent, even if a few have decent bills scattered around. This looks quite decent in fairness, but not the same level as last year's high quality ensemble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asriel Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 I am only going to the Thursday (and possibly the pre party). IMO, if you were to add any of the headliners from the other days (barring prophets of rage) to co-headline on that day, then it would rival any of the previous days at mad cool.

The Martini Police Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 Made a festival playlist (all 4 days) that I thought I'd share in case of any you find it useful. It's setlist-based and has a lot more depth than the official one. I've covered the majority of acts including all major ones and happy to add any more requested. I'll keep updating it with new releases too. Enjoy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asriel Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 I know they played a few years ago. But Wilco have a gap in their Europe touring schedule during July/August and haven’t got any Spanish/portuguese shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan_ts Posted April 17, 2019 Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) If there were any doubts Mary J Blige just announced a US tour with Nas starting on 11 July.

Jaykc82 Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 I felt like it was more active in here whenever we were all complaining about the lack of communication. Been pretty quiet after the initial reaction to the last round of announcements and the Pre Party announcement. I'm hoping that we can get to talking about the music again soon and hopefully we get that last artist announcement sooner rather than later. For all the criticism and frustration I'm genuinely excited for this. This is a unique experience for me to go to a festival with this many acts and I've only ever seen one of them before live (Griz). I feel like I have so many more artists to try to listen to between now and July though. My hometown music festival also announced their acts this week which has taken my attention away from this and given me a few more bands to check out, although this has far fewer artists that I wasnt familiar with so a little less overwhelming. So are most of you in this forum actually attending this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day 1 is the only one I'm really worried about conflicts. I'm sure there will be conflicts on day 2 and 3 but each day only has a couple acts I'd be really upset if I missed.

Do you know when the timetable gets released? Most of the acts I want to see are doing Glastonbury as well, so it might be a case of planning both festivals at the same time to see as much, and as big a variety, as possible.

Rico_Pliskin Posted April 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2019 I reckon when Kanye (Yeesus) does his Easter Sunday Service at Coachella he's going to announce the resurrection of his career and tour dates/new album. I hope this is what Nos/MC have been waiting for. More than likely not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e2p2 Posted April 21, 2019 Report Share Posted April 21, 2019 (edited) So what's the deal with the FNAC pack?
