Orens Posted February 27, 2020 Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 10 hours ago, yaniv297 said: Honestly I don't think they're even competing that much. Primavera remains a festival focused on indie/"quality" acts, even the big headliners aren't usually just commercial music. Mad Cool is more conventional, commercial options. Look at their headliners this year - Kings of Leon, 21 Pilots, Mumford and Sons, Taylor Swift, The Killers, Major Lazer - I don't really see any of those as a potential Primavera booking. Bon Iver and The National headlined this thing last year, as well as dozens of non-headlining acts (some are shared with PS and some are on the bill on the previous/following one). It is a competition regardless of the other headliners, but in 2020 I could definitely see both festivals try to book headliners such as Billie Eillish (unavailable during Primavera), The Strokes (as mentioned earlier), Disclosure (played a DJ set in MC19), Beck, Pavement, Faith No More, Massive Attack, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnarler Posted February 27, 2020 Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 The Roskilde lineup is looking great. Think this is exactly what everyone was hoping the top line of Prima would look like. I think placing their festival right at the start of July puts them in a really good place to catch all the artists coming through Europe throughout the summer. Really makes me believe Prima has done a great job getting headliners as good as they have after seeing how other festivals have ended up.

xxialac Posted February 27, 2020 Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 There’s lots of strength in depth (Tom Ze!!) and good headliners but genuinely I prefer Primavera’s headliners this year. Both very good though. Definitely would struggle to find any better out there anywhere in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puckno Posted February 27, 2020 Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 Roskilde has been on a down in many years with respect to their lineups but this year is much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like thom yorke but he has already been touring this show the last summer. If he asks that much as the high position on this poster suggests, I get why PS didn't book him.

I don't think it's unreasonable that he puts himself at Kacey's level in a European context. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeliam Posted February 27, 2020 Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 That friday line-up is ace for me!!! Tyler, Twigs, Thom, .Paak, Rufus du Sol, Tinariwen and Big Thief ❤️ Will Damon appear with Africa Express? that would be the icing on the cake 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you need Kacey Musgraves, Bad Bunny or Disclosure to widen your target, while you don't need Thom Yorke (already toured) set if you have already, for example, Massive Attack. I am not interested in seeing Disclosure but I understand why they have invested money on them instead of Thom Yorke. Thom Yorke would have been a great bonus, but not someone I would give Massive Attack or other top tier headliners for.

Thion Yorke is only second line at Roskilde, alongside Deftones and Thomas Helmig. If anything he’s undervalued here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there's not quite enough time for this. If I remember they'd have to play twice in one day to fit it in, given their other tour dates. But Thom Yorke, Damon Albarn etc...could be, could be.

Last time I was checking their dates, they could play a secret show on Wednesday (also the official playlist points to Wednesday). Hope still lives.

Hope still lives. Ah you're right, would be a huge stretch though. They can't play at the same time as JAMC and they can't play in the mid-afternoon (they'd be flying in the morning so not enough time to set up ) so I can't quite see when. Maybe at 11/12pm in town somewhere like BARTS? But what if their plane is delayed? It all seems a bit risky... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never caught one of these surprise sets so how does it work? Do they announce them some time before or do they happen out of nowhere?
