No, no Ciutat in Porto. Perhaps something on Wednesday like previous years before pandemic, but nothing relevant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly looking on a small phone but can’t see enough of the name crossed out to reach that conclusion. I swear I can see “natio” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxialac Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 It’s quite funny that after all the moaning about The National, they are giving us even more The National. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Last_Exit Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 (edited) It looks like the National finish playing Australasia in early March and their first gig back would then be the Friday night of Primavera, ahead of a longer European stint. So a pipe opener on the Wednesday would probably be useful for them. Edited January 26 by Last_Exit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xebi SF are exclusively at Ciutat KuTo, Lara91k and Las Petunias don't have website entries yet. There seems to bre a DJ called lara91k, but the other two i can't find anything about. Gives me "Society Fun Lie" Vibes I'll have to reverse my original verdict about this being weak. There is a lot od depth and quality in this. Many of the acts are better placed in clubs than open air stages I reckon. Depending on the programming of each night, I'll give it a go. Chameleons - Abstract Concrete - Cranes would be a great legends evening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's alternatives. Plus for us National fans it'll probably be a more special set. I'm happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whos3000_ Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 (edited) Fka twigs, pulp, charli xcx and vampire weekend, deftones and Beth gibbons (jai Paul possibly?) better have strong albums incoming to make forget about the fact we are missing out on this smile gem Edited January 27 by Whos3000_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On their Hanukkah shows, for example, they do a lot of covers. It will be easy for them to put a show just of covers (that can be Fight for your Right of Beastie Boys to Pale Blue Eyes of Velvet Underground). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankburns Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Here's a list of all the songs they did at last year's Hanukkah shows (including a lot of covers): https://www.setlist.fm/stats/yo-la-tengo-7bd6ae90.html?tour=7bdf661c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem like such obvious bookings. Air are playing doing Sonar, LCD and DCFC arriving too late in Europe for PS, but The Smile's non-booking is rather surprising. There are really a lot of bands doing festivals in May/June that I would have liked to see in the PS-line-up : Mogwai, Osees, Slowdive, Belle And Sebastian. And I haven't even mentioned Massive Attack... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxialac Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 (edited) Most of those bands are exclusive to other festivals in Spain. Is the same every year, no festival can mop up all the bands (and that’s probably a good thing). Edited January 27 by xxialac 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxialac Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Think the trick with Ciutat is not to think of it a festival day but as a club night. Normally if you went to a gig and saw two bands you enjoyed in one night that would be an amazing result. At Ciutat that is pretty achievable particularly given the quality of the ‘supports’.

Fabrizzo Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 (edited) It is almost certain that the canceled name will be the National (perfect dates) but it seems really strange to create hype for an announcement like this, names like Pet Shop Boys, Beck Phoenix have been announced at Ciutat without any problem... It would be sensational if it were a name not present in the lineup or some unexpected reunion Edited January 27 by Fabrizzo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
