2nd one, majority think about EMINEM, and me about Fall Out Boy lol (I'd rather have Eminem to be honest, even if I like both ^^)

Eminem would be my ideal booking but Is "please stand by" supposed to be referencing "please stand up" from the Real Slim Shady song? That would be a pretty lacklustre clue tbh...

I think they're literally just saying "see you soon" 😂 maybe we'll get some names the day after price increase.

So all we have so far is the Reading/Leeds festival names (end of August) :

* Sam Fender * Billie Eilish * Foals * Greenday * KSI . (and maybe, only maybe, Paramore).

And as a  reminder, in 2022, the only common headliner we had with them was Arctic Monkeys

 

I'd be very happy if we got Sam Fender, Foals, Green Day and Paramore from that line-up.

Foals and Paramore are touring together in the States until the beginning of August 2023 so them coming across after that makes sense.

Foals Greenday and Paramore would indeed be great (even if that would be too much in commun with Reading, so impossible I think)

Sam Fender, well... I don't know if Sziget forgives him for 2022, I wouldn't bet on it 😅

Billie Eilish might be the common headliner between the 2 festivals ^^ and Macklemore just announced European dates in April-May...with nothing in Hungary... considering he's at Sziget quite often (and it is always a great match TBH), I think we might get him lol

I'm not a fan of him but I like his music and I was looking forward to his concert, but after he cancelled at the last moment I lost all of my interest, I hope they won't reschedule him for the next year. Same thing happened to me this year at Primavera Sound with The Strokes and at Mad Cool with Glass Animals.

The Strokes was due to a Covid case though, they did everything to be there. And they payed on the second weekend.

I know, but after waiting for a year for the festival to happen and then they cancel a day before the festival I was annoyed and sad. yes, they played the 2nd weekend but I had a ticket only for the 1st one and I couldn't afford to pay the ticket for 2nd weekend and to find another accommodation. 🙃

Joji has a show in London on August 17th, but also no festivals during the summer. Do you guys think he fits Sziget?

Could sub probably - bit of a weird one but not impossible

Where?! Didn't see it. But hope it's true of course!

Can be because of the "Duh" in his last comment, which is part of the song "bad guy" from Billie, but it might be a stretch. She is also supposed to headline Reading/Leeds so there might be a chance.

Well he already confirmed Billie Eilish, which is a huge one.

I think 'confirmed' might be pushing it a little! That said, if she's around and available I don't doubt that she'd be booked. Not sure she'd hold my attention for 90 minutes but bad guy and bury a friend are great songs. The rest all sound the same to me tbh.

    • Rotten communication. Actually god awful. Posting sporadically on IG, closing Mordor only to reopen and cause some serious carnage. Left the festival as it got too much for my 16year old daughter. She was devastated about Alex G and Mac…but TV girl could have saved it. Took us until 1220 and already home to find out they might/are playing. Pish.    and on another note, this festival has lost its bastard soul. Gone are the wee tents with local sellers selling vinyl, t shirts etc, now you can buy a 50 f**king eur official T-shirt. The ar*e is truely out of this event now. I went to Porto for the first time last year and it was fab. I love Barcelona and the line up is always stacked, but this festival is a corporate loss take. Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.
