Yep just gone through and favourited what felt like half of the lineup, so the timetable reveal should be fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They played the new album in its entirety (plus a mix of earlier songs), and it worked quite well with its rougher and more industrial sound. Don't know how it'll translate to a windy outdoor stage, though. A band I love but I can see myself skipping them for this reason. Plus, they're on a day when I'm anticipating quite a few clashes too. Looking forward to some new info this week. Hopefully Hidden Stage etc. Neerly there now.

I remember the 2017/18 (I forget which year is which...) version, getting the push notes for the surprise gigs. Arcade Fire, Mogwai and Haim I think? Great fun and excitement at first, followed by people glued to their phones wondering what else was coming 😅 I've made my peace with this line up being our final line up (hopefully without any major last minute drop outs) so any extras from here are absolute bonus (but if they're coming, please wedge them all into the Thursday of weekend one. My Friday and Saturday is so full 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making pitchfork and adidas dance stages and putting those bands all the way over in the Bits space instead? No access to any stages unless you're VIP?

What a stacked card. Yeah it was quite exciting to remind myself how much there is I want to see! I haven't been thinking about this festival anywhere near as much as I usually do Glastonbury in the run-up so it all feels like it's happening quite quickly and without my usual level of obsessive poring over every detail. Which is nice actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohjesus Posted May 9, 2022 Report Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) the app has a few artists missing but sure it's a glitch/gradual update - couldn't find say, napalm death or richard dawson & circle, just after a cursory glance (although they were later additions i guess)... which means our wantlists will be even longer when it's all up there.

That's two albums in a row that lack depth and sparkle. Some of their newer songs are embarrassing even. That said, they're still fantastic live and by next year or whenever they next play PS they'll still be mostly bashing out the hits (and not the newer, weaker material). It's hard to put a finger on exactly why, but when the new material is played back to back with even relatively "weaker" older material like "ready to start" (as happened on my Spotify this morning), there is a noticeable gulf in quality.

Don't feel like there's any space in that direction (short of making people watch shows standing in the sea...) They won't use it but I miss the old ATP stage in the amphitheatre towards Mordor which had the Mediterranean behind it (Rayban style) and which they now use for food vendors. Think it was considered unsafe to hold gigs there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadrophobia Posted May 9, 2022 Report Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) I wouldn't expect a bigger stage on the Bits part, the bridge already is a nightmare before more popular acts. access had to be through the main entrance to make that happen and thats a huge detour.

xxialac Posted May 9, 2022 Report Share Posted May 9, 2022 Maybe Primavera Floating Stage (safety briefing and signed waiver before each show)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nesser Posted May 9, 2022 Report Share Posted May 9, 2022 ATP was ruled out because of security concerns, yeah. Also I think its last year was 2011 or 2012 so now the festival holds x2.5 capacity so it won't come back I'm afraid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
