I'm not keen on it (love the four before), but yeah even if I was hearing a load of songs you don't know for the first time is never going to have the best vibe – especially at a festival.

Radiochicken Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 The National are a much better “see at their own gig” band vs being a festival act. They’ve been great on their own terms - seen them a few times - but that Glasto show was not good. I imagine (obvs I’m a fan so don’t know) if you came in fresh to a National show, a lot of their stuff would sound the same / quite dour. I’m hoping primavera will be different though, as surely the overlap of fans is a lot higher than Glasto before Foo Fighters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxialac Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 Looks like 100 Gecs are probably out. PS not listed on their list of shows on their website and they are in the US either side of what would have been their gigs. Not confirmed though. Suspect there are a few other cancellations since the last announcement mid-December and we just haven't been told about them yet. On other hand, will be new names!

In fairness they never put Prima on their site in the first place, so it's not been taken down, just badly managed 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've only Tweeted once this year, I just think they're quiet online, nobody's buying a Primavera ticket for 100 Gecs so no real need to advertise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Alex G came over in 2018 just to do PS. Sometimes its worthwhile for artists and unlike corporate fests PS is known to go to lenghts to accomodate artists. 100 Gecs need little to no gear, it'd really be no problem for them to make this work.

KGeedora Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 100 Gecs and Japanese Breakfast both confuse the hell out of me. Both groups have tour dates on their websites for Europe that are way after June. JB has Porto Prima on the official website but not Barça. I really don't understand it at all.

Ah, great, didnt realise that. Must increase the chances a lot then. Though still a bit weird that they’ll be flying to barcelona, then out, then back to barcelona again.

Weekend 1 I can't put on waiting list cuz I've bought it from waiting list, I can just send it to a friend like you. Weekend 2 I can put back on waiting list. And yeah, I'm doing both weekends with separated tickets and I think it'll be a shit for city concerts.

Primavera is a huge deal for indie acts, it's almost unique in the festival world. I've seen indie bands get amazing time slots and receptions at Primavera that they won't get elsewhere. I can definitely see indie acts flying specifically to play it, especially 2 weekends. Pavement are already doing it, for example.

Pavement will be on a big fee. 100 Gecs on the other hand will surely lose money on those four shows - and they aren't making much money in the first place. That's why I was sceptical (plus the gigs not being listed on their tour on their website) but certainly could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwallowOrSleepOnTheWetSpot Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 Primavera confirmed on Twitter that Japanese Breakfast will still be playing on Friday June 10, so I would not worry about it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

branvan Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 Hi! I have a VIP Ticket for Weekend 1+2 but I can't attend Weekend 2 anymore. I asked Primavera to put Weekend 2 on the waiting list but they said the Ticket can't be split.... Is anybody with a VIP-Weekend 1 Ticket looking for a VIP-Weekend 1+2 Ticket? Then we could do this with send to a friend on the DICE App... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to put this to bed ... I'm just back from Spain, EU or NHS Travel Cert were all that were required. Quick scan & through you go. Not sure what is accepted for visitors from NonEU/UK countries. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
