xxialac Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 Surely they're not going to move acts to Sunday (unless an act asks to be moved there). Primavera was able to come up with a Double Line up, sure Mad Cool can handle one day more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WFD Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 A couple of the templates mention specific acts in the "explaining things to your boss" bits, something like "I've got a meeting with Leon Bridges" and Twenty One Pilots get a mention in another. Which like all of it, could be significant or could be random nonsense. There's also the strange phrase in the template shown upthread "older than a forest", which could have pointed towards The Cure if they hadn't played recently.

xxialac Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 That "older than a forest" phrasing sure is suspicious. Surely that does point to the Cure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Becaue they have one song that matches half of this phrase?

My partner is mad about him and he saved me from a hard time after I dragged her to the car crash that was Bob Dylan at BST the other year. She did not like anyone on the lineup other then Sam who opened the main. It was all down hill from there on for her. As he was on the older line-up, I was hoping they might get him back. Him on the Sunday might help me with negotiations to extend our stay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dales Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 Sprinsteen's full name is Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen, so the post below does seem to point towards him. "Good morning Joseph or Josephine (Whatever your boss´ name is), Going to be iteresting when they finally stop playing games and start posting useful meaningful information. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few years back I think Springsteen was caught up in a bit of contraversy over cancelling a show over standing up for transgender rights. I can't remember the full details but think it was over who could and could not use which toilets. However, I thought not even Mad Cools PR department could be as crass to make light and joke about something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxialac Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 It could be a reference to Joseph Goebbels, although unlike Mad Cool he was actually good at propaganda. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his new album is great, and he was really good when I saw him last month. The real deal I think I don't know if I can hack 5 nights of pure music but if this deduction about Springsteen is true I'm going to have to find out.

WFD Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Wonder if that means it won't be a full bill that day, and/or whether it will be largely dance acts? If they are putting on an extra day purely because of the opportunity to get Swedish House Mafia, it doesn't seem much point booking rock and indie acts to go against/alongside them.
