I have tickets regardless, but maybe Bloc Party & Hozier sub KoL on the 12th.

11th Depeche Mode & New Order. 

Sziget announcing their line up tomorrow so maybe an agreement to a joint announcement of an headliner (if neither have exclusivity). Honestly clutching at straws and hoping for a decent announcement 

 

 

Yes please. All in for Depeche Mode.

Depeche Mode won’t be playing.  No plans for shows

Yeah Dave Gahan gave an interview about a benefit gig that they're probably gonna be quiet for a little bit. Which makes sense given they only finished touring Memento Mori earlier this year and they tend to take time off for a while after those endeavours.

Even Foster the People is too big for the second stage. Pumped Up Kicks have 2 billion streams on spotify and they have 18.5 million monthly listeners which is even higher than Kings of Leon which is at 18.4 million.

One hit wonder though. And that hit is 14 years old.

Much bigger in the US than over here though.

If you look at Spotify numbers they're as big as The Cure or Pink Floyd. But they're an american band with a huge hit and Spotify is a good indicator but doesn't say everything about how many tickets they would sell in Portugal today.

Just for an example, in August I've seen Wisp (TikTok and YouTube shoegaze-emo phenomenon with constantly a few millions Spotify monthly listeners and an almost 100M hit) playing in the smallest tent at Pukkelpop in front of less than 100 spectators. But she also had a sold out show in London the day after.

If they can find any other good band for the NOS stage, they will probably shift them to that stage, like what they did this year with Benjamin Clementine on the first day, tt was announced first for the Heineken stage but ended up on the NOS stage one week before the start of the festival.

Didn't realise they were still going tbh.

I thought they'd dropped Pumped Up Kicks due to its lyrical content?

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
