Are there any rumours in Portugal about who could headline? Tame Impala seem a likely candidate. Have you been before? I've already booked a hotel in the centre of Porto Friday/Saturday just wondering how easy it is to get to/from the festival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insert here two female names like Solange and there you go, those might be the headliners. I go to this festival every year since 2015, I live here. While I can't speak for this city's buses, which I avoid at all costs, it is a pretty straightforward trip if you choose to travel by subway. Pretty sure the website has some tips but it's not a complicated thing to plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tame Impala would definitely be worth a day ticket, we can only do the Friday or Saturday though so I'm hoping it's one of those days! May even end up doing both if it's worth it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amfy Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 Day tickets for us too, as the Thursday clashes with the footbalI! We can definitely do one or both of Friday and Saturday though depending on the line up as both the final and the 3rd/4th play off are on the Sunday.

I'm asking because they would be a very interesting band for NOS Alive... and NOS Alive is the most powerful Portuguese festival.

Tigane Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) Primavera Sound Porto fan page, says that Modeselektor are confirmed for Nos Primavera Sound. But i have no idea where they got that info edit: Well it is due to the band used a instastory made by the fanpage , so that isn't a sure confirmation Edited December 16, 2018 by Tigane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that if they were to play in NOS Alive they would have been confirmed by now. It is too much of a loss for this festival to lose a name like Tame Impala (considering the rest of bcn's lineup...). It is, of course, just my two cents 2 hours ago, Tigane said: Primavera Sound Porto fan page, says that Modeselektor are confirmed for Nos Primavera Sound.

Regardless, who in the hell would run a page like that? I see so many people just following that page in such a naive manner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would make sense, however last year NOS Alive announced quite a few names a month or two after they were already announced elsewhere (at least the acts shared with Mad Cool), and not small names either (NIN, BRCM, MGMT, AIC just to name a few). I guess I'm trying to say that you can deduce absolutely nothing by the way NOS Alive is announcing. Shouldn't take too long to get the full Primavera Porto lineup though.

Johnny Shelby Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 Soooo... Lineup probably won't be announced this week, right? Why is it taking so long? Are they trying to get some big names that won't be in Barcelona? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the chance to talk with Gabi, during the line up presentation in Porto (at that time the line up presentations of the portuguese Primavera were on Porto city hall and free for anyone who wanted to go) and he said that THe Strokes were a band too big for the portuguese Primavera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, it isn't normal procedure which makes it reasonable to think that something might have happened or is happening. Me being wrong is always a possibility though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
