Tigane Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 1 hour ago, Daniel Ferreira said: Smashing Pumpkins yes Smashing Pumpkins are not headliners. In 2019 they were co-headliners with Chemical Brothers and Bon Iver, a year that they had to put Vampire Weekend as headliners in the second day. You have another example this year. Black Keys were Headliners some years ago, and this year they were only sub , before RHCP. And you can check the announcment texts from Dua Lipa and Smashing Pumpkins, and for Dua Lipa they talk like it is a very big announcment, and Smashing Pumpkins is talked like an normal announcment Besides Nos Alive never announced two distinct headliners in 2 consecutive days. In a marketing way , it makes no sense to announce 2 headliners like this, unless both were to announce their entire tour . And we already know that most of Smashing Pumpkins tour was already announced . And probably because Dua Lipa was due to announce now, they probably are waiting more close to Christmas to announce Foo Fighters. Pearl Jam will of course announce all their tour at the same time 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need the press and if you do so at least one of the announcements, if not the two, will be compromised. Last but not least, in what planet Smashing Pumpinks can sell 55 thousand tickets in a Portuguese festival? And you need the headliners to sell the majority of tickets. Smashing Pumpinks as solo headliners, in Portugal, only at Vilar de Mouros. Even Paredes de Coura with Lorde didn't sell out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foo Fighters and Smashing Pumpkins on the same day I think it's a lot for Alive, when this year we had Alive that now looks like a fruit salad, on the same day several genres of music like Sam Smith/QOTSA and AM/Lizzo... but I hope I'm wrong , but since 2019 I lost hope in Alive .

Red Hot - Black Keys it's ok, but Foo Fighters - Smashing Pumpinks it's not. Ok. We will wait and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SP do not have the popularity nowadays compared with their peak in the 90s. However, I think that you underestimate their popularity in Portugal. Yeah, not to sell a 55k festival on their own. But they are a popular band around here. Things were a lot different by then, but Smashing Pumpinks were headliners in the first Alive edition. On the same day, below them you had White Stripes. In 2011, they did 2 nights at Campo Pequeno... In 2024 they will not be headliners, I believe, but will have a position like Black Keys this year, for example. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
