Who were they?  I looked at the day split images and there's 3 or 4 clues not on them so assumed they hadn't been announced.

I presumed the Game Boy thing was Video Games for Lana but… someone said it was some random act.

Yeah but dudes gotta play other gigs right. Like he played some Scandinavian fest the last time he did his one or two shows in the US.

He's got a new album this year supposedly.

Seems like something impossible, and I don’t think he would come to Mad Cool if he’s coming to Spain, Primavera Sound would pay him a big money to show up, it’s something else for sure, probably Lana.

I'm hoping miley isn't one of the headliners, as I camt really go this year but that would sway me. Would defo expect a female headliner, with only one female and one non binary headliner  announced so far.

I also expect a female band or an artist as all the big names in the lineup are male besides Lizzo, and she's not even a headliner in her day?

Lorde could be a possibility but she seems too small for the festival, Lana seems more reasonable. As people mentioned, it could an american act announcing tour dates, cause I don't understand the late announcement.

Paramore?

Paramore is in the US at that time sadly

[festivalguy97]

Billie Eilish is out? She has tour dates in August in Europe, no Tour dates in June and July tho...

[festivalguy97]

Lana del Rey tour band hinted a Spring/Summer tour to be announced soon, seems a bit too late to announce a solo tour now so festivals seem more feasible, she already has some concerts in Australia and Brazil

And to be fair we could have been wrong about the Nintendo hint and could still mean Lana. However it is unlikely because they used that on the Saturday poster.

I think we just have very high expectations, it will probably something like Stormzy or Mumford and Sons

Is Lana high expectations? No offence to her. Taylor Swift would be high expectations, LDR is medium expectations at most

I mean high expectations in terms of artists that are touring around, Stormzy and Mumford and Sons are and they seem like a more safe choice, and I do believe that they would attract much less people than her.

Depends who you’re a fan of 😂

[Akujin]

Damn, Lana actually has 40 mill monthly listeners which is more than RHCP… that’s shocking to me. I have never known anyone who’s a fan of her.

She’s not bigger than RHCP ofc, but if you put her as a headliner on the second day, she is definitely bigger than QOTSA, Black Keys and Sam Smith. You cannot say the same about Stormzy or Mumford and Sons, that’s why having her would bring a lot of people.

Luckily Taylor Swift isnt possible

[festivalguy97]

Oh god it was Mumford and Sons…

[matrainertje]

Janelle Monae is a big surprise though!

[mln]

First date for Janelle Monae, right? Nice one!

[Suprefan]

The only good announcement from the big names. Also some nice smaller names, like Primal Scream, Kurt Vile, Spoon a couple more and that’s it. Overall one of the worst Mad Cool lineups ever in my opinion.

'told you for Ava Max, nobody believed me .. she's ❤️😀
