tyler repeating NPS seems more reasonable. run the jewels also made a double some years ago

Yeah but they didnt really fit the lineup as a bigger act like Tyler did. It's not that it isnt reasnoable it's just that seeing Lana and losing Tyler sounds contractually like a more realistic deal

Ha. Yeah! Well... Maybe he won't come around at all, that is a possibility. But realistically what headliner could be the one left for SBSR?

Good question...Kings of Leon? Did they have bad headliners in recent years?

Maybe The Killers or The Strokes, but they all seem pretty big and not like typical SBSR-acts to me.

There are still two headliners left though. Foals aren't listed as headliners in the festival's website.

Why don't you see him playing NOS Alive? You probably wouldn't see Taylor Swift or Kendrick Lamar playing NOS Alive before they were announced. This year's motto for NOS Alive should be "expect the unexpected".

By the way, if Tame Impala does end up playing here PLEASE prepare a different live show for next year. Saw them 3 times during the last 4/5 year and NOTHING changed in their live show (Patience and Borderline were added to the setlist this year but lol who cares). Found myself pretty bored watching them for the third time this year. Tired of the same set of visuals and lasers.

What about Sumol? Would Tyler be too big to play it?

Also maybe SBSR do end up getting The Strokes

Tyler fits perfectly in Sumol. (let's not forget they had brockhampton last year)

however, imo:

25% nps, 25% sumol, 50% not coming at all

Oh come on. Tyler is headlining MAJOR festivals. Sumol Summer Fest is a 3k-capacity festival with a musty organisation. 

Fair enough

Tyler will play Primavera Sound.

NOS Primavera Sound or Primavera Sound? It's easy to predict the latter but that's not what we're talking about

That doesn´t mean that he will play Nos Primavera Sound, he could end up at Nos Alive or Super Bock but I think that all 3 options are available. 

Same thing with Tame Impala, they won´t play Primavera Barcelona but there is a possibility that they will play Nos Primavera Sound.

I mean, his comment on PS might just come out to be true. Regardless, I'm skeptical as one can be

I think that Tyler will be definetly playing Barcelona, it´s a huge festival and they repeat artists all the time. He already played Nos Primavera 2 years ago and was on the 2nd line of the bill so I doubt that they will repeat with him because this time he needs a headliner slot.

Oh yeah, I know, I meant his mention of Beck and The Strokes/FO

wait for NOS is three days but suddenly Kendrick is announced but on a 4th day despite already selling three day passes.

Is it a gig just bolted on to the festival using the same site and facilities or is NOS actually upgrading to four days despite barely announcing anything compared to it's Spanish weekend sharers.

An opportunity they couldn't refuse. Same case as Werchter 2003.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
