xxialac Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 New Boo Radleys single out this afternoon after what feels like a 25 year gap. They must surely be at PS22, c’mon kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTobs Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 St. Vincent's europe-tour starts right after Primavera. I guess it's still unlikely, since she is at Mad Cool, but maybe as a surprise guest, I don't know. Would love a Jack Antonoff day on friday with Lorde, Clairo and her haha.

Only 40% of Spain is fully vaccinated at the moment. 36% of Netherlands. You'd hope/expect that to be much much higher in a year's time. You can't say places like Australia closed too late/opened too early and they're having problems too now. Do you have a source for over a 5th of club goers being positive from one night? Here, it's in Dutch though. Says quite clearly that people's QR codes were checked at the door for vaccinations or negative tests, and that this was very strictly enforced at the door. This isn't the only such incident, btw. This link (again, in Dutch) has more general background, but it also has a nice graphic showing the corona cases split by province and age group. tldr; the party and festival going age groups are seeing explosive growth in cases. None of this makes me very confident about indoor gigs later in the year. I'm sitting on Le Guess Who tickets for November, I'm less confident about this taking place than I was a few months ago, health authorities are increasingly talking about autumn/winter waves. Still think Primavera will happen next year, but given what's happening right now, I don't think it was ever realistic next month. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted July 8, 2021 Report Share Posted July 8, 2021 I think Sufjan’s name alone makes that project too big for the Auditori. We can dream though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 6/10/2021 at 1:14 PM, deadpheasant said: Nothing yet I still haven't heard anything from them. I asked them on their support platform as well as on their social channels if it worked out with the transfer of the ticket to the second weekend - and have been waiting for an answer for 4 weeks now...no idea what to do now...some form of certainity would be nice. In my festicket account there is still only the voucher for Primavera Festival 2021. Anyone else with the same problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see this as great news, mostly as it means that they are doing two decent sized gigs a day there so could well be another 5 Poble Espanyol acts to announce.

She could only be announced if Mad Cool would dispense off their radius clause. Sure they could work out something of a surprise show, but even that could be covered by that clause.

It's entirely possible she offered to play Mad Cool if they removed the radius clause for her. She may have even offered to play for a lower fee so she could do both. Who knows, really?

Its just standard procedure to exclude your artists from your competitor. There are exceptions, but not many. Some artists, like the Arctic Monkeys in 2018 f.e., are big enough to demand a radius clause scrapped. Doesn't happen a lot though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fnmentaluk Posted July 13, 2021 Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 Jesus this is getting totally mental . The choice of bands in the primavera a la Cuitat. Maybe only downside is if you go the poble espanyol , very low chance of getting into the other gigs . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipan Posted July 13, 2021 Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 Speaking about Primavera a la Ciutat, I've just discovered L'Imperatrice. They are playing just once during those 11 days and only in a small venue in the city, so the less people know this the better. But I simply can't keep this information to myself - they are great. 🙂 If there is one concert I shall not miss on June 7th, it's them.

xxialac Posted July 14, 2021 Report Share Posted July 14, 2021 Sparks have just announced a tour across the pond in March. I suspect they’ll be back in for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveje Posted July 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2021 They announced a European April/May tour a while back, and I suspect that since the US and European tours are back to back, they might need more time to relax before playing again. Love to be proved wrong though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows how the festival wasn't that far off being able to take place this August, especially if they'd gone for a reduced format. 20.000 people attended festival in Utrecht. They had to show green covid certificate to enter.

Plus you just needed a LFT in few days before whereas (easy to commit fraud) eg Cruilla and Vida were doing them onsite. Not saying festivals don’t cause infections but all too apparent now that outdoor-only festivals with good testing are at lower end of risk spectrum.

There is a video in this article (in Dutch obviously) https://www.ad.nl/utrecht/lachen-dansen-knuffelen-utrecht-gaat-eindelijk-los-op-een-festival-je-voelt-je-gewoon-gelukkig~afc866611/ I mean it was always likely something like this would happen. Testing is too unreliable and vaccination rates have not yet reached herd immunity. With Delta being more infectious and vaccines less effective against getting infected than other mutations, we'll need much higher vaccination rates to safely hold festivals again.
