gregory Posted March 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) So this will be the first time ever that there'll be more than 3 English speaking acts on the Hidden Stage, right? (PB&J, Zeal & Ardor, and now these 2. Possibly Skindred too) Also possibly the first time there'll be clashing 'international' acts too....

Yeah it’s pretty good for the hidden stage...might need to find it this year, Fontaine’s are good ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activean Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 Both sounds solid to me, maybe worth checking them out while having a beer Hidden stage is the most improved stage in terms of lineup compared to previous years, but isn't a bit small for bands like PB&J or Skindred ?

ParanoidTourist Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 Good acts for hidden stage! Even Heard of them;) I think Black honey plays both Hurricane and Werchter as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PB&J are confirmed for it, was just guessing for Skindred (based on Sofi, and Frank Turner possibly being 3rd down on Main alongside Kurt V (confirmed MainStage) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't that tent pretty small ? Anyway, i think i'm gonna spend more time here than i did in the previous years ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregory Posted March 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 Here's my 'i-got-too-much-free-time-table' : If the text is green = the day is confirmed (by looking on bands websites etc). Foals is a guess but seems very likely. If the font is normal (not italic) = they are confirmed for that stage. If it's italic = they are not confirmed for that stage, it is a guess.

ParanoidTourist Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 Just listened to todays announced acts: they are pretty good I'd say. I probabaly will pay a visit to the hidden stage more than I thought I would=) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would be a perfect booking to headline the world music stage....?? Announcing a full US Tour, Idles will return to the US May 2019. They’ll play 16 dates across the US with support from Fontaines DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could easily fit Inmusic in and they are touring like hell. Interesting Fontaine’s link. They definitely fit along the slaves, frank carter line of previous years.

gregory Posted March 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Spoilers, but first The Cure "festival" setlist of the year here: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/the-cure/2019/carnival-city-festival-lawns-johannesburg-south-africa-392050b.html Almost identical to the Hyde Park setlist but 3 songs longer. They came on at 20:15 and curfew was 23:00. I wonder how long INmusic will give them... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activean Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 32 songs, crazy. Meanwhile Foals are doing 11 songs shows at the moment ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregory Posted March 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) One more guess for World Stage headliner, TINARIWEN. They seem a perfect fit following Bombino and Orchestra Baobab in 2017 and 2018, and are in Greece on June 26. edit: also maybe Jungle Edited March 18, 2019 by gregory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParanoidTourist Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) Parkway Drive (though they play in Russia on the 25th of June), Bears Den and SWMRS play Hurricane/Southside and Werchter so we might get them since InMusic is a convenient gap between those two festivals.

activean Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 Really interested which stage are Sofi Tukker playing because of different genre (+ They kind of grown on me) Last few announcements: Fontaines and Black Honey -Friday 15.3 mangroove -Thursday 7.3 Santigold - Monday 4.3 Edi East - Wednesday 27.2 At least one per week so next one incoming this week probably? If there is any interesting yet to announce, i expect it to happen after ticket price rise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregory Posted March 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 By the way @Simon Driver etc., unless the name was green on my table the date is TBC. The Cure equally could close the festival (I'm starting to think this is more likely). So it could equally look like this (& better this way IMO); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
