So any hopes for the remaining acts? 

My wishlist include Nine Inch Nails, Last Dinner Party, Neil Young and Muse (not totally realistic I know).

i think Muse are out

I still don't close the doors to Neil Young (From all the names that may still come, i still believe it is the only one that will sell out the festival)

The Last Dinner Party, maybe

I think you’d be surprised how few acts are left to announce.  With them dropping a day I think there’s a lot less than people expect

Yeah Muse might be out. But TLDP are the biggest chance I think. They're subbing Olivia Rodrigo on other festivals this summer and are in France right before MC.

But Young would please me the most I think.

It would be very on-brand for Mad Cool to have leaked yet another tour before it was ready to be announced hahah!

 

(Although I suppose they can be forgiven as it was meant to come out last week and this could be an ad which was not nipped in the bud in time)

What was it, The Strokes last time?

I still think Muse would've been announced in their first wave if they had them.

 

Makes me wonder what else they're doing, mind. Five dates, 3 of which are in Scandinavia, is quite a skinny tour given they were allegedly meant to have hoovered up a few spots vacated by Foo Fighters after they opted not to tour in 2025.

True, Muse should be a band that MC were likely to announce first. But it also feels weird to just tour Scandinavia and 2 other countries.

Is it not a poor translation? I’m sure that they said to someone in the first announcement that they might be “at a future Mad Cool as it didn’t work this time” or something to that effect

Are we expecting only NIN tomorrow or a group of names?

The way it says “announcement” makes me think it’s just NIN but it would be nice if they do day splits too

    • Either or. They both play the same venues.

    • Interesting to read. It's mostly why we stopped going a few years back even though it's the nearest big festival to home. The post-exams timing and location makes it a rites of passage first festival for people in a big area. Understandably that leads to a bit of giddiness. Think lineup would need to be a lot more my cup of tea to be enticed back. Friends who are there are having a good time tho and no rain is a good thing for up there.
    • I honestly didn't know it had, I still thought it was where the view overlooked the lake and view.   I think my decision not to attend this year at least was justified. Biffy was the big draw but after Finsbury I knew they wouldn't play what I want to hear again and well work also got in the way. Believed interesting to hear if Libertines were any good as they were also a pull but Sunday did nothing for me really with all my acts on Friday and Saturday.
