xxialac Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 Why is Thursday so damn good? I've counted the names I want to see and it's going to be horrific clash after horrific clash. The only thing that could save the situation is if some of them double up with Ciutat! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got the exact same situation friend. Even digging into the undercard I just keep hearing something I like only to see they're playing the Thursday. Happens most years for me. Thursday and Friday are stacked, Saturday I'm doing a lot more wandering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BA_Barrabus Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 At least Thursday will be the quieter of the days (people wise) so getting about should be pretty straight forward. Remember being pretty shocked how close to the stage we were for Blur vs the previous year's madness for Tame Impala Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipan Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 Last Primavera, it was pretty straightforward: best line-up => least people (Thursday) worst line-up => most people (Saturday) It seems that it might be the case also in 2024, since my personal worst day (Friday) is the only one that is almost sold out at the moment. However, I still think that the worst day of 2024 (Friday) is better than the worst day of 2023 (Saturday). And also that the best day of 2024 (Thursday) is slightly worse than the best day of 2023 (Thursday). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily I can see Justice and Amyl the week after at BKS and I just noticed I get to see Wiegedood in January as support act for Amenra, so that's three less worries. But agree that day is ridiculously stacked still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxialac Posted December 13, 2023 Report Share Posted December 13, 2023 Anyone want to have a go at guessing the Ciutat names from the gaps (one theory). Starting with the following letter bands: 1. Hu-Ik 2. Ki-Ko 3. Man-Mar 4. Mu-Na 5. Pe-Ph 6. Pi-Po Yeah, I'm bored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those sound like aktual bandnames in themselves, Muna even would make sense 😄 I think 1. is Iceage, as username666 pointed out, they are supporting Mitski on her tour just before PS. Would be available on the Sunday. 3. Could also be Manchester Orchestra Edited December 14, 2023 by Quadrophobia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatteredscreens Posted December 14, 2023 Report Share Posted December 14, 2023 I respect the reasoning but I wouldn't read much into it. I think if the names were like that it would have been released by now. I don't know what the hold up is really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many possibilities but one could be that they have an agreement with the bands but are still working out the contractual side with the venues.

emmanuel Posted December 14, 2023 Report Share Posted December 14, 2023 1 hour ago, scatteredscreens said: I respect the reasoning but I wouldn't read much into it. But it seems possible that bands were swapped between Ciutat and main festival at last minute before the poster was made? In that case, it would make sense that they have removed a few names at last minute. However that would only be possible if these bands were flexible in their tour dates, so I'm not sure this makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyd love Kiko and Manmar. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whos3000_ Posted December 15, 2023 Report Share Posted December 15, 2023 Who do you think will be this year Wednesday? When they were announced they were nobody to me.

Her recent album is phenomenal and features in any EOTY lists Slow Pulp are also blowing up currently If we are talking critics recognition, my money is on Mannequin Pussy. Not new, but the next albums gonna be the one that makes them well known Edited December 15, 2023 by Quadrophobia 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen them live and they're...alright...but Last Dinner Party could easily 'do a Wet Leg' in terms of attention when their debut comes out early in the new year.

If thats the precondition, then The Last Dinner Party is indeed gonna be the one band that will be much bigger after next year. Their material is fun and there is a lot of money behind them. However Wednesday did have several albums before Rat Saw God, so I'm not sure that was implied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
