The information so far on the Apolo gig:

Monday: Rolling Blackout Coastal Fever (The Band IG)

Tuesday: ???

Wednesday: All bands in 30 Years City Slang (City Slang IG) & Les Savy Fav (Label site)

Friday: ??

If Jawbox plays on Friday and Shame + Squid on Tuesday, it would be one hell of a week.

Shame plays the Forum on the Saturday, so they are probably on the Sunday as well together with Jawbox.

That would be total disrespect, I'm pretty much sure that both [Bauhaus and Iggy Pop] are on main stages, probably on the same one. 

Ehh, I feel like Primavera Stage and [FKA] Ray Ban Stage will be better fits for both.

So who are gonna play the precious 3AM at (FKA) Ray-Ban slot? 

Right now I think:

Thursday: DJ Shadow (with Massive Attack closing Mordor) 

Friday: Caribou

Saturday: Bicep live (with Disclosure closing Mordor) 

I could see Young Thug closing Mordor on Thursday, similar to what Future did in 2019.

Which acts do you think are going to play the main stages on saturday? Tyler, bad bunny and Disclosure for sure. Bauhaus maybe? Unfortunately, I am afraid they will play on the Primavera Stage, together with Iggy.

PNL likely. Also Mavis Staples for an early evening slot, like Jane Birkin had a couple years ago.

I can't even imagine how many clashes will be at thursday

My Thursday clashes prediction: Headliners (Mordor) vs Yo La Tengo, Dinosaur Jr, Nuebauten, Kim Gordon , Black Midi vs Auditori acts (Bill Callahan). Hoping that DJ shadow not playing in Bits. My late thirties leg is weak as hell.

Just discovered a great gem in Lingua Ignota. Will probably fill a late night slot at the Adidas stage in the same style as Myrkur or Anna von Hausswolff in previous years. 

Unfortunately she will feature on Thursday, the days are so uneven in quality this year that it is getting silly.

Yeah probably my biggest discovery so far. Seems like she’d be really interesting to see live so hoping I can make room for her, although as you say it’s looking like it’s gonna be tough to squeeze in all these smaller acts.

Hang on, last thing I read on here people were saying that there won't be any shows at the Apolo on Sunday? 

[xxialac]

Apolo late night closing party as every year - Yes

Afternoon indie shows (In CCCB/park) as every year - Replaced by DJs

On the poster it says there will be indie shows on Sunday

Well they can't stop the nightime closing party - that would be insanity - and there are enough bands in the list. Seems like Jawbox will headline.

But there aren't enough bands by my calculation to do the afternoon shows and, seeing as they're making a big thing of this beach thing, I'm pretty certain it's being killed after a decade plus.

It's possible they will have some up and coming bands that you are unlikely to have heard of instead.

But in previous years they've had Twilight Sad, Mac de Marco, The Walkmen, Bradford Cox etc. RIP.

well depends how many people would they attract,  primavera stage looks kinda smal for them, ray ban is more likely , Bauhaus is rare booking and I wouldnt be suprised to see them on mains tages, if Pavement is on main stages Im pretty sure then they both will be on main stages ...plus Im really hoping for it because of vip  tickets

[Guy Incognito]

I don't reckon Bauhaus will be Mordor. Primavera Stage sounds about right to me.

Pile and Squid aren't playing twice on the day splits any more, as they were on the original official poster.

Yeah that's a shame. I've seen Squid quite a few times but was looking forward to Pile, however I only arrive on Wednesday afternoon.

Shame are playing!

So do we know when both are playing Apolo?

I'm also hoping Pile will play Weds night but they could also fit in Monday, Tuesday or Sunday so the odds are not good!

They used to give us details on the Ciutat days quickly/immediately but last year took an age and I'm expecting same again.

So, Apolo? Shame, Pile and Jawbox would be great.

That's what you've got by the look of things for the closing party. Plus Teki Latex was confirmed and Dave P always plays then.

I arranged everything we know regarding stage/day splits on a document, allocating the top3 of each day to Mordor (been that way ever since 2013). Let me know if I missed anything?

I was just trying to figure out those Pitchfork day splits myself. Good job 😀 looks like I’m gonna be spending a lot of Saturday there.

Amazing work. Careful though. You might inspire someone to have a go at a clashfinder

[PaulKav]

Just out of curiosity does there tend to be anymore announcements or is this the whole lineup?
