Sziget 2023

Is the supermodels pic a hint for this song?

40 names coming on Tuesday according to new Sziget social media post.

I'm still surprised that you don't consider Lorde or Macklemore big enough to headline Sziget, and they need a strong subliner. 

Macklemore has 25 millions listeners, he headlined a lot of important music festivals, and Lorde has 18M. They are both popular, they can deliver a nice headliner show. They are more headliners to me than Florence + The Machine or Kings of Leon (and more fun)

Could the rock band headliner be on the Sunday and lorde/Macklemore combo on the Monday? Otherwise they might be on separate days

(Don't make me come back with Ava Max 31M/month versus Lorde 18M/month lol...and still, I can't imagine one of them headlining Sziget yet.)

And about Macklemore , let's say he's a stronh sub-head.. or co-head ^^

Well, the lyrics are pretty negative. AND these are 90s models. The lyrics goes: "She's a '90s supermodel"

Google search on this photo does suggest "top models années 90", so this is an interesting clue. And the whole music video revolves around the red purse.

Streaming represents only part of the audience, mostly the younger audience. You can't draw conclusions based on that. KOL had sold 20mio albums, twice more than Mac, Lorde and Ava combined but that also doesn't mean they will do better in terms of selling tickets.

And Chat GPT-s answer: Based on the clue "0619," the popular music band that it refers to is most likely the Korean boy band BTS, also known as the Bangtan Boys. The numbers "0619" represent June 19th, which is the date of member Jungkook's birthday. BTS is one of the most popular and successful music groups in the world, known for their catchy pop music, intricate choreography, and socially conscious lyrics.

Jungkook's birthday is 1st of September, and please don't ask me why do I know that.

does this mean that lorde could be ruled out?

[rowexx]

I feel like the most plausible is I hate models and we are all trying to stick onto any hope that it s something bigger 😭

No more female headliners? Dont think @Sziget2023_Leaks would mean that in a leak

But they are in Budapest in May, so unlikely.

But also in Barcelona on April 11 and June 3 (Primavera).

I would say the same. Don’t see how the red cross could stand for anything else

That might be my fault. I said we were taking it too literally as when I looked up I Hate Models it only came up with one song. Just checked Spotify and they've done a few. My bad, it's clearly I Hate Models.

Sorry for the goose chase.

It would be funny if Leaks changed his teasing strategy by posting clues only for acts that he knows that are underwhelming for most of us. That would mean that the more exciting ones are kept as surprises.

I was also hoping it would be something else but yeah i guess its i hate models

Just announced in Canada 4th to 6th August. A few of these are heading to Sziget afterwards, I wonder how many more might:

"40+ new acts flying to the Island including • headliners • subheadliners • fantastic artists • who will perform at TicketSwap Colosseum, dropYard powered by BOLT, ibis x ALL Europe Stage or Party Arena"

Looks like smaller stages artist included too. Don't know why they keep forgeting Freedome arena, on the webpage under "exciting venues" it is also missing.

It might be an obvious statement, but at least that appears to be confirming that we'll get both main stage headliners announced.

I’m so curious what the names will be tuesday. We’re not really sure what the leaked names will be, i mean we’ve got our ideas but it could still be anything. Really hope it will be less of a let down as the previous names drop. I think the lineup is pretty underwelming for now

Someone is claiming that we are getting the Weeknd at Sziget. He does have a gap in his tour 12th of August in Estonia and 18th of August in the UK but I don't see that happening
