second headliner

As in the Other? She'd pack it out based on current metrics - a crush almighty, one would presume.

 

That being said, I cannot quite tell how much her appeal has made over here. I know she's big - I just don't know if she's big like she is in America. Hard to gauge without those festival slots doing stupendous crowd numbers.

No I meant she's the second headliner at Reading

Friday - Little Simz / Sam Fender

Saturday - Oasis

Sunday - Florence

Can't see them booking Fender and Oasis for the same joint, and there's a big question if the latter will even make it to 2027. I'd assume once their own shows are cleared in 2025, there will be some festival dates in 2026 but not too many.

Little Simz one I had forgotten about despite the mahoosive crowd she had this year. An oversight there - hope she doesn't drop off in the interim too much.

 

Little Simz kind of really deserves it - While im sure some would say she is not big enough - every step up so far she has absolutely smashed.  Her last few albums the quality has been so consistently hight.   She won over a lot a Coldplay crowd this year that really was not her normal demo.

 

It would be absolutely fantastic for someone who's career has grown up the festival to get the nod. It would be Special. 

 

Not sure what stage she first played but she was around on some very small slots in Silver Hayes 10 or so years ago

The xx need to come back first, but not opposed to it.

They have been in the studio a week a month for a little while now (from Jamie's recent Zane Lowe interview). Obviously he is out on the road for his own thing now but I can easily see them getting the album out in good time for a 2027 headline slot from it.

They won't headline. Will always be a strong option to sub/headline Other whenever they're about, though.

    • Rotten communication. Actually god awful. Posting sporadically on IG, closing Mordor only to reopen and cause some serious carnage. Left the festival as it got too much for my 16year old daughter. She was devastated about Alex G and Mac…but TV girl could have saved it. Took us until 1220 and already home to find out they might/are playing. Pish.    and on another note, this festival has lost its bastard soul. Gone are the wee tents with local sellers selling vinyl, t shirts etc, now you can buy a 50 f**king eur official T-shirt. The ar*e is truely out of this event now. I went to Porto for the first time last year and it was fab. I love Barcelona and the line up is always stacked, but this festival is a corporate loss take. Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.
