Primavera announced Arctic Monkeys a day earlier than other festivals in 2018 as well. They have some kind of an exclusivity since they only announce their full lineup in one announcement.

jonnytee1 Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Well I hope if it is the strokes that they are better this time. I’ll be happy to watch them again as the songs are quality. I just hope they put on a better show than previous times I’ve seen them. MCR would be a great other headliner with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slix_Trix Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Rock Werchter posted at 12:51 that they are announcing something at six. Strokes are all but confirmed to be doing a chunk of European festivals.....fingers crossed MC shares them with PS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wro_lap Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 I’m confident it’s MCR. If it’s not, I’ll go that day without wearing suncream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Martini Police Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Mad Cool do tend to go quiet with the tweets just before an announcement. I have the notifications on so it's quite noticeable that they have for the last day or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slix_Trix Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Avoiding social media attention AKA preemptively hiding from the backlash they are about to receive for dropping the ball with The Strokes 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKS will probably do some talking before the announcement (they did that with the last one, didn't they?), that's why they teased for 17:51 (apart from obvious Strokes reference).

BKS - Teased 17:51 (which is 12:51 in New York & a song off second album) and also left blank spaces that fit their name RW - Posted a clock set a 6 o clock (and they posted it at 12:51) NOS - Seem to be just announcing at 5pm for the laugh (probably the time The Strokes will post all the dates) Mad Cool - Silence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaphPH Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 (edited) Are we assuming The Strokes will play Friday at RW? That could still mean 10th July for RW Edited January 22, 2020 by RaphPH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could still mean 10th July for RW RW ends few days before MC. Shouldn't impact Strokes playing MC Friday 10th...I would be worried that its likely Strokes will play NOS Alive on the Saturday 11th. That would be the night after Friday at Mad Cool by a band that has not performed two consecutive nights in a looong time. But then again, this is supposed to be a proper tour for them so if thats the case, its not impossible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pryce Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 I don't think it will happen now, they love a tease especially If everyone else is doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lack of teasing does worry me also. They did just post something unrelated which makes me even more worried. Could just be a normal day in the office for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sariris Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 They didn't tease the last announcement, they just dropped it. And they're suspiciously quiet today... like, they ALWAYS tweet something either at 12:00 p.m or at 2:00 p.m and they haven't done anything today, just a tweet at 10 or so... I've my notifications on for their tweets and it doesn't look like a normal day, trust me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
