Anyone could come up with names that are 50% correct. I have correctly predicted Bikini Kill, Lankum, Blonde Redhead, Mitski, The National, PJ Harvey, etc. Does not make me special!

Quadrophobia Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 I don't mean to stirr unrealistic expectations but the Ciutat might bring some of the acts we are missing, like Camera Obscura or The Mountain Goats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stereodista Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 What a letdown. No idea why there was such certitude re: Kylie? Even given the whole ‘New Normal’ lark, it would’ve been an incongruous booking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BA_Barrabus Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 missing Phoenix has deflated me big time. Must arrive on the Wed going forward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homesick Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 Disappointed no legendary surprise names to get excited about (one of MBV, The Cure, Nick Cave etc.), but it’s a solid enough lineup. Albeit bar Lana and one or two others, you can see most acts whenever you want. It feels like Phoenix and The National play more festivals than they don’t.

Yakkety Yak Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 Pretty whelming, really. Not a letdown but not much to be excited about. It'll be fine! A lot of the rumoured acts that are missing were the ones I was keen for - Jane's Addiction, Camera Obscura, Kylie, The Smile, The Walkmen, Death Cab... next year I might just have to skip the speculation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broccoli Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) First time ive regretted buying a ticket up front. I know they’ve had a new album since but the National again is so boring to me. I love Blur and they dropped their new one after last year but i wouldnt want them again either Edited November 21, 2023 by broccoli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foolee Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 I need day splits as I don’t think I’ll be there for the Saturday. Praying Amyl, Deftones, Pulp, The Armed and VW are not on the Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmanuel Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 Many great names, but also many of them touring this year. I've seen about 60 shows this year, so I was not expecting any rare names on the poster and that's fine. It is still quite impressive, with 5-10 times better than any festival announced so far, and that's just from the names I am familiar with.

joydiv Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) For me I have very mixed feelings, really excited about bigger acts like pulp, Lana, twigs, deftones and PJ Harvey. The National I have seen so many times at so many festivals that this is v boring - also did everyone forget about the Ezra Koenig allegations when it comes to Vampire Weekend? Lots of great undercards too - Chelsea Wolfe will be amazing she’s been on my to see list for a while. Slow pulp too. Seems a v ‘what is popular on TikTok’, line up - really thought we’d have a bigger icon act like the cure, although happy with Pulp. Also expected to see more up and coming acts like bdrmm.

Fleetwood_Mac_And_Cheese Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 Desperately trying to read this poster but a mix of "I've just woke up" and "goodness me is this design fugly" is making it a big struggle to see past the first few rows lol.
