Think (pray) it's only the Amex presale allocation that's nearly sold out - general presale is 11 today so I'll let folks know what goes down

Last year they had 6 days

Field Day - field day

gorillaz - older (similar to strokes now)

national - older

nick cave - older

tame impala - younger

disclosure - young (stormzy day)

Based off last year theres still likely some older aimed stuff to come. Gorillaz could maybe be more towards younger but still that leaves an older day

Gorillaz definitely wasnt an older crowd, felt like a fucking pensioner there

You got a link yet? I haven’t received one…

Nah still waiting and tapping my fingers, want a shot at one of these £45 ones if there's an allocation of those for the presale... going either way though, not missing Dicky.

Same here - but might wait for chance of 241s if tier 1 unavailable

Did see the second part of the message, and not really sure what the relevance is… your so-called ‘older’ days sold worst of all last year so no guarantee they will replicate, and our consistently itk person on this thread is claiming there’s no guarantee of more dates.

They already have replicated an older day. Strokes and Yeah Yeah Yeahs. I mean, the Twin Towers were still standing when their career peak album Is This It came out...

And 100% there are more days to come. 

It defies all logic to have the space/infrastructure costs for two weekends including a bank holiday weekend and not use it properly.

What i'm saying is I don't believe theres not at least 1 more 'older' day to come should more dates come. I think i'm in the majority in not believing no more dates will be announced

My point entirely… as the ‘older’ days sold worst last year, the fact we’ve already got this means it’s less likely that any further announced days will be for that demographic too.

I prefer to place my trust in people who seemingly know what’s actually going on rather than the majority, but let’s see. He’s not ruling out further announcements, tbf - just that there’s nothing planned.

Or the other way of looking at is that older people are richer, having not been screwed over like the younger generations and that we are in a cost of living crisis, exacerbating everything. Plus most of the bands that sell had their heyday when the 40-somethings (and 50-somethings even) were young.

I repeat, there will obviously be more days, it's inconceivable there won't be for example a day on Saturday 26 of a long bank holiday weekend, having used the site the day before.

    • 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.
