And also that testcard countdown was supposed to end tomorrow at 11:00.

Exactly

[riseupandkill]

yes, they changed the visuals. exciting times.

 

if they do announce festival dates tomorrow, and it's two weekends, people who are holding tickets will lose there shit between then and the line up announcement worrying about which dates they are covered for. myself included.

Was a joke at Primavera's expense as the tag line for the campaign is 'es evident' (it's evident).

They can announce the line up next week and the details of the two weekend idea a couple of days after tomorrow

well yeh, they can do what they like, but there'll be a weird period of uncertainty which might be a ballache

[Nesser]

kind of a strecht to call two days without info "a weird period of uncertainity", but ok. if you already know they're planning two weekends you also know that you will be able to choose which one you want to go. as long as they spill all the info (the lineups and how to roll out tickets) by the time the window open I think we're good

well, the two days period is your guess, not mine.

i'm not bothered, they'll just get bombarded with social media enquiries. thought they might want to minimise that.

Ha yeh I’ve asked lots of silly questions of them on Twitter.

I'd disagree. Last news on them was that recording on the new album was far from finished. Could be they do a few shows in 2022, but it doesnt look a lot like we'll see them tour proper til '23 

They were recording record #6 in Texas during the election (November 2020). Surely it'll be ready for release by June of 2022?

the video on the countdown site really is related to Antonia Font. this video is not listed on YouTube but somebody found it.

 

 

[Guy Incognito]

Is there a chance that this countdown for tomorrow isnt actually related to the festival?

It has to be. That countdown was announced on this tweet and the poster is related to Prima.

 

[Guy Incognito]

Oh nice. I'd missed that.

The Strokes missing from that WoW line up, doesn't bode well for them returning for Primavera either I suppose.

At this point that really doesn't say much. Maybe some festival has a right to announce them first. I have one in mind.

Richard Reed Perry talked to the Montreal Gazette like two months ago an it had this in it:

"A new Arcade Fire album is in the works, but a release date is far from certain. The band recorded together for a month in the fall, according to Parry, and will likely converge again in the spring. But for now, that’s the band on the back burner, and Bell Orchestre is getting credit where credit is due."

https://montrealgazette.com/entertainment/local-arts/arcade-fire-takes-back-seat-as-bell-orchestre-reemerges-with-new-album

So the new Album isn't even recorded yet. And it usually takes more than a year from the finished recordings to a release. So I'd say the earliest the album will be released is Fall 2022. So a proper tour is something I wouldn't expect for 2022

My understanding of the post is that you can discover the line up with them. I doubt it is being released piece by piece during the show. Probably they'll give us a video like the years before. Then afterwards, they'll dig into the line up at RPS

Beck’s tour pushed back again to 2022. With a further announcement coming today - guess he can’t say anything before PS do.

countdown is zero, still sailing...
I guess they're not used to these videos not being leaked that they forgot they have to do something when the countdown ends...
