Weezer plays blue album in full. 

Could see it if it was an anniversary year. But it's not. 

They seem to have given up (sadly) on albums played in full recently. No acts on the poster doing this in the last 2 years (although BTS did end up playing keep it like a secret).

I saw Weezer last year and they were pure brainless fun, played the hits and some cheesy covers. Don't see them as quite a fit for Gabi, even apart from his comments.

This would be an awesome thing to bring to the Forum

A couple of 20 year anniversary coming up next year,  which I would like to see. Avalanches , Since I left you. 

Modest Mouse , The Moon and Antarctica 

And a million to one shot Radiohead doing Kid A.

Avalanches owe Primavera as didn't do full show last time.

System Of A Down said they are going to start announcing European tour dates soon and have already announced one festival. Personally don't think they'd be the best fit and will probably play Download Madrid instead but I'm always up for a surprise.

A terrible fit, surely.

Slayer played in 2017, anything is possible. 

I dream of it happening 

[Andrej]

There is absolutely no way SOAD will play Primavera.

[riseupandkill]

slightly off topic bands that definitely won't play Primavera next year but I'd like to No. 431: The Pet Shop Boys

[Glenn Coco]

Well looks like Taylor Swift is doing a festival tour.. any chance she does Primavera?

[Gnarler]

Yeah. If you guys didn't like the idea of System of a Down I'm excited to hear opinions on a possible Taylor appearance. She's doing NOS Alive and they sometimes share headliners with Primavera Sound.

[PaulSt]

If we're going to get 1/2 pop headliners ( and we are ) I guess she's one of the best available, surely better than Miley in my opinion. I don't mind her at all given the new PS artistic direction

They were spectacular back in 2010 - Pavement/Pixies/Pet Shop Boys

[young_contra]

Swans played here last time in 2017 right? Hopefully they're a name we can fully expect

Would love it tbh and was actually already hoping for her. Aslong as there are also things enough things like Pavement, My Bloody Valentine, Vampire Weekend, black midi, Kendrick, St. Vincent, Jenny Hval and lots of new things to discover. Diversity includes pop too,  imoand Taylor is an icon of the last decade which I would never see live otherwise. I like the 'New Normal' as long as Gabi doesnt forget the roots either .

Then again I also went to Charlie and Carly this year and loved them too so I may not average forum guy.

Normally I'd say Taylor is out of their price range but with it being their 20th anniversary I imagine they put a bit of cash aside to bring in some heavy guns. I'm no expert but I imagine they didn't use all their artist budget on 2019's lineup.

Dont rely on this concept, think about Sziget 25th anniversary in 2017...

[Lars]

Pet Shop Boys are most likely ruled out.. 

[thomas9790]

DEVO are playing Desert Daze as part of their ''Farewell Tour''. Would be nice to see them play Primavera.

oh yes - got my months mixed up there...

[xxialac]

Wilco feel way overdue.

Destroyer ruled out.

Billie Eilish now a strong rumour.

[scatteredscreens]

There's no doubt Billie will be playing, however surely she can't be headlining, if only because her set isn't really long enough right now. Also it gives primavera a headliner opportunity a couple years down the road.

Would love to see them at Primavera!  Ween too, they've been back on the road for what feels like ages in the US so a European tour feels well overdue.
