It wouldn't be the first time that Mad Cool simply bumps up an artist from the first row to headliners... It would be a shame, but I'm super suspicious that the Saturday slot is going to JamieXX or Years and Years (sorry, I'm a bit pessimistic giving the festival history so far).

Btw, FIB which takes place a week later than MC just announced The Offspring

Offspring is also playing in Barcelona on friday 7th. 

I wouldn't be surprised if they get announced for Mad Cool saturday.

Apart from the temperature I can't agree with anything you said.

Last year after Mad Cool I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer, thankfully I beat it and I'm back. Still not received my wristbands but quite frankly I couldn't care less.  I can pick them up there

The atmosphere is terrible. People is boring, they talk so much, the sound is not the best, and we had 38º one day last year. I cannot recomend this festival, I'm sorry.

Given that they specifically put a question mark to the main headline slot, it would look insane that they go ahead and announce that the surprise headliner on Friday is... Queens of the Stone Age... People are already not too hyped with the line up, but this would look flat out insane. They are in really big trouble if they resort to this.

Apparently Sziget is announcing next week and Rock Werchter announcing "early March". There seems to be another announcement buzz happening. I think it is likely that MC will also join announcements next week. Let's see!

Roskilde Festival is probably also announcing something this week, and Opener might announce something within 2 weeks. Glastonbury also is rumoured to announce within 2 weeks. This could be just a random coincidence or there is a special name that most of these festivals are going to share.

Got a mad cool sunset ticket for Rage Against the Machine. Tour got cancelled as we all know. Festicket went into administration. 

Festival doesn’t know who got money back or not (I got cashback from my bank).
So they’re giving anyone who bought a ticket through festicket a free weekend ticket.

Not a bad result for me!

Posty just announced a May Europe Tour with no Spain Date - could he be Saturday headliner?

Please don’t get my hopes up… Also he does start the tour in April so sadly it is unlikely that he would stay till July. 
 

But yh I expect more dates because currently there are very few countries.

Full lineup tomorrow at 8.45pm (uk time)

1. That seems like a weird time to announce

2. that to me signals that it is a US name that will announce their tour in their timezone. (Maybe even west coast as it is very late here)
 

(or am I overthingking this?)

It's the middle of the night in the US.

Whereas it's just after the start of the working day in Spain (as in, you know, where the festival is held!)

Apparently The Weekend will potentially tour in 2023. He also posted almost the same time as Mad Cool about a live album comming out tomorrow night. 
 

could it be that he times it with his announcement of his tour?

His tour was announced some time ago and includes a July date in Madrid.

This is good news. I'm gonna refrain from making a prediction based on what I'd like because I always end up slightly or very disappointed! In fairness, there's already enough in the card for me. Anything else half decent is a bonus. I'm intrigued to see the type of artists it's gonna be though. Fair play to them for keeping it under wraps, although knowing Mad Cool, they only finalised it this morning

      So we've signed a Horny Czech, and Bruno's turned up the training camp instead of doing Isak's nonsense.   Still not sure I believe Bruno's staying mind, but glad he's not doing the sh*t Arsenal are asking him to do to lower the price. If they want him they can stump up.   My suspicion is that whichever of Madrid/Man City don't start next season with Rodri will go for Bruno, and one of them will come in while Arsenal have f**ked about trying to get him cheap, which while I absolutely want to keep him, would still be good enough bants and a nice middle finger that I wouldn't mind it so much. I just wish we'd report Arsenal for tapping up.   If rumours are to be believed, we're after 2 more defensive signings, and an attacking player, on top of a replacement if Bruno leaves, having already signed a LW, 2 CMs, a GK, and some youth players. Huge churn, but apart from a couple of Bazou Toure's games for Ivory Coast at the world cup, I've not seen any of them play. Over 2 summers we've basically changed our entire team aside from the CBs.

      I think the level of headliners Bloodstock get is varied    There's been bands who have gone on to play Download in quite a low spot like Meshuggah, Behemoth, Opeth etc.    Then they've had years like 2025 where you can argue that all three headliners are download main stage sub level    Knocked Loose right now i'd argue are 3rd down on main/opus headliner level while EC and FFDP are borderline main stage sub
