I'll be waiting for this now just incase JEW have pulled out.

They were promoting one of the euro fests they're doing yesterday so I think you're good there.

There were still gaps in the line up despite the last announcement being called the final announcement so makes sense they have a couple more to announce

Saint Agnes are a great band but to be honest I thought they were already playing as their recent London show was "2000 Trees Presents".

Must admit I thought the same. To the extent I already had them on my trees playlist

Turnstile have pulled out of Rock Am Ring/Park

They pulled out of Primavera weeks ago which is the same weekend as those. Dates after this week (from mid June-July) haven't seemed to be affected though. This also includes their European mainland tour which I feel like would have been announced as cancelled by now if they were. I feel pretty confident in them being there but have no idea why they cancelled those shows for the first week in June.

I agree. Those early June shows seemed odd with the gap before the main tour. I'm hoping those cancellations are a logistics thing

Indeed. None of them suggest being replacements for major acts. 

I hope you're right, but getting smaller bands could mean that they bump up bands above them?

Anyone know why this fest is on Thursday to Saturday (rather than Friday to Sunday)? Would love to do it one day but I'm a teacher so not possible to get the time off work. 

This is the case for most festivals in Europe that take place over the same weekend: NOS Alive, Bilbao BBK and Ruisrock. The only 2 festivals I've found that have artists playing on the Sunday are TRNSMT and Mad Cool who are doing the Sunday for the first time ever it seems. No idea why this appears to be the industry standard for this weekend and only this weekend. The only guess I could come up with is that whenever the world cup or euros are on the final typically falls on that Sunday with Qatar making it an exception for this year.

Also the Thursday in Trees used to be far smaller. Music was only on two stages and comedy on another. It also started much later like at around 4pm. As the festival started to grow it just made more sense for them to slowly expand the Thursday by adding more of the stages and having it start earlier until it slowly became equal to Friday and Saturday rather than do a new day on the Sunday.

they added like 25 tiny unknown bands for the last 'band a day' 

no sign of The Xcerts but I have seen multiple sources cite them as playing so no idea when that'll be announced, maybe it'll be a secret set?

They were on a leaked press release but I think it fell through. One of the band members posted on Discord that they were defo not playing

    • I've been attending Primavera every year since my first one in 2017 & it's always been my favourite week of the year, but I think things have changed.   Firstly, the site just feels too busy in this current set-up. I'm sure it was a lot easier back in 2017-19 to get between the stages & then a good spot for the next one, but now you increasingly have to sacrifice parts of a set or miss them out completely to plan for later on. I wish we still had the Bits area over the bridge to spread everyone out.   But the main issue is the talking, it's always been here but this year it's been relentless & I just can't tolerate it any more. It's at every stage, and everywhere from the front to the back, there is no escape. Not focusing on nationalities, but a major dynamic now seems to be groups of people who are only focusing on their own good time & aren't interested if this affects anyone else. It seems essential that all members of the group are together at the same time, so it's people making telephone calls, people on shoulders waving phone torches, people barging through. It's alright, I'm only trying to watch The Cure here.   I will have a year away to think about it. I thought might give up completely but yesterday was a bit of a classic day after two unenjoyable ones. Adding Olivia Rodrigo to Baxter Dury, Gelli Haha, The XX, Gorillaz & Kneecap shows how good it can be, but as with everything, it's always the people that have the biggest impact.
