Just realised those Madrid dates are actually for 2024 and I read the poster wrong at first. Though equally I'd be surprised if they pivot into suddenly doing something like this on top.

I'm hoping he's not playing either, but the festival is getting poppier and more mainstream, so it's not that much of a stretch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the 2011 memories. My first edition as well, I then returned evry year until 2016 - when I watched ty segall then action bronson, then looked out to the power station chimneys and gave myself a wee chat about how I was a dad now, and wouldn't be back for a while. And so it proved. I did return this year but I had a very mixed experience sadly. The insane overcrowding really spoiled it. I expect folk who came during the noughties felt by 2011 it was losing its character! Things change. As a final addition to your memories - it was actually Suicide that Nick Cave asked /told folk to go and see. They played their first LP on the Ray Ban immediately following Grinderman. It was the first time I'd ever seen Nick Cave or Suicide perform. What a night. On the Saturday I saw John Cale performing Paris 1919 (I know everyone goes on about sufjan Stevens, but John Cale, and Mike Mills Big Star Band (2012) and Suede (2016) are *my* auditori moments), the fiery furnaces, then left the festival during Fleet Foxes, to watch Barcelona win the European Cup at the arc de triomf! Met Jarvis Cocker on the way out. Returned in time for Animal Collective doing a dreadful set - probably the only bad thing I saw all weekend. It seems I then opted for DJ shadow Over DJ Coco. Very tasteful of me at 3am, on my 4th night out in a row 🙂 https://clashfinder.com/m/prim11/?user=0yctrf.tp I am excited, or at least pretty interested, to see the poster tomorrow, but I don't think I will ever be back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjork - Rosalía - Camilla Cabello/Halsey Kendrick Lamar - Denzel Curry - Doja Cat Depeche Mode - Blur/Pulp - LCD Soundsystem Lower down... The War on Drugs, FKA Twigs, Belle and Sebastian, Sigur Ros, The Comet is Coming, Stereolab, Fever Ray, Sparks, Ezra Furman, Afghan Whigs, Death Grips, Ty Segall, Freddie Gibbs, Yard Act. Punt... Kings of Convenience. Personal Wishes... Rival Schools, Brutus, Marlowe, Holy Fawn, bdrmm, Be Your Own Pet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enkidu Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 Denzel Curry aint a headliner, not above acts like B&S and Sigur Ros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was just a cool hidden gem type of thing still then you wouldnt have had all those crowding issues this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of these are much more popular while also somewhat accepted in the music-critic circles. EDM is dead and throwing money and big DJs does not make any sense. Even though Calvin Harris is on the less-awful side of EDM, he would damage PS reputation for having a carefully selected booking. Cant tell people Florence +The Machine did not impress you enough to book her and then go ahead and give a headslot to Calvin Harris. As a booker, If you'd seen the ticket sales for Swedish House Mafia, you wouldn't touch any EDM artist again. Im pretty sure Pup will be on this.

ConfidenceMan Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 I winder are people reading too much into the 'edm' label, and it could just be some big electronic act? I live around half the year in the Netherlands and friends of mine use 'edm' to refer just about any type of electronic dance music, not just the stuff that's referred to as edm in uk/us media. So it could just be, say, the Prodigy. Harris would be a very surprising booking IMO but this festival is full of surprises... Anyway, not long to go now.

Quadrophobia Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 (edited) Thinking about it, the only headline-candidates that are not complete wild guesses right now are Blur and Travis Scott. I'd say Burna Boy could be a rare exemption of the "never twice" rule, too, but London stadium on the 3rd of June does not sound like he'll just drop by PS one or two days earlier. Undercard guesses would be Turnstile, Pup, Denzel Curry, Death Grips, Code Orange, Lil Ugly Mane, Converge, MIKE, zulu, Soul Glo, Touche Amore, Young Fathers and The Beths.

Memory Man Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 325 euro is currently £280 so not wildly out of whack with UK prices given substantial inflation glastonbury is £340 primavera porto is however 140 euro so if thats any good, could be a decent alternative…,.

Porto is becoming more and more interesting for me considering I've seen most of the really big names i want to see and I feel BCN is becoming way too crowded 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
