Deftones already headlined NOS (optimus) Alive in 2010, so it's a possibility...

Foos + Deftones on the same day would be awesome, but Deftones already have some dates in Europe scheduled for the beginning of the year, I don't know if they will be able to come back again in the summer to play festivals

 

New album. Tour early in the year with many (all?) soldout shows. It's def. followed by a great Summer of festivals in Europe. I just check because I was sure they already announced some festivals but they are not in Europe.

They’ll be in Europe later in the summer

A complete wildcard but the DMA’s are in the UK in May. I’d love to see them in the tent. Great live act.

Why do people think Sabrina is coming to Europe again this summer? 

There was a leak about Mad Cool… some people still think that it’s fake, but for now it got right - for NOS Alive, ofc - Nick Cave, Florence and the absence of The Cure.

 

The rest of the names were Foo Fighters, Sabrina, Mumford, Olivia Dean, A Perfect Circle, Deftones and 21 Pilots.

It is 100% fake because it was written in a poor Spanish with lot of typos.

Also weird that the leak didn’t mention Lorde. I’d think she’d be at Mad Cool too.

I guess if an alleged Spanish website is getting the Spanish language wrong, it's not a great sign for any leak's authenticity.

Wow this just keeps getting better and better!!

[PDomingos]

Wolf Alice will probably be the first band of the day in the main stage.

About Deftones, they play in Portugal just last year, in Primavera Sound. Not seeing them returning so soon.

Is Paredes de Coura and Primavera announcing on the wrong Instagram account?

 

What a comeback until now!

the only thing which makes me question this now is that 21 pilots are on the list and Lorde isn’t.

 

i feel that if NOS alive had 21 pilots on the line up, it would have already been announced, as they have already been announced for other shows.

 

It feels like the Friday headliner is someone who hasn’t released their tour yet.

(For me) this is an incredible strong line up compared to what was announced last year .

 

Hopefully they can keep up this momentum!

Both are about in August too so could be doing the latter festivals too.

 

Yeah I’d suggest it’ll be a Foos or Sabrina etc… who will announce loads all in 1 go

Wolf Alice played NOS Alive in 2016 and 2018... nothing new here. In fact I see them more as a NOS Alive booking than PS or PdC.

[Jamesthedrake]

This is really ticking our boxes - when do you think we’d need to get tickets for this? 

[FestivalJamie]

Hopefully they can get Marina instead of Primavera Porto and I would also love to see Jungle (if they are touring next year)

She is very good live, I was dreaming about her at Parede de Coura.

[just_one]

yeah, wolf alice is definitly opening the band for sure

[ParanoidTourist]

Excellent addition with Wolf Alice!

Them playing Primavera last year doesn't really equate to them not being around this time, especially with a new album out and their momentum never having been this big. FWIW I would prefer seeing them live on their own, I think a solo show of them is overdue here in Portugal. But... I'll take what we can get ^^

[PDomingos]

With Wolf Alice on the bill for the 10th... it suggest more a headliner like FF than Sabrina Carpenter

That makes total sense, but I also think we can keep our minds open since it is NOS Alive we're talking about. Never will I forget that transition from Snow Patrol to Nine Inch Nails a few years ago...

true... it was a weird lineup,

Bryan Ferry, NIN, Snow Patrol and Artic Monkeys... quite a rollercoaster

[OKMess]

I'd very much like Ghost and Foo Fighters to be announced. Maybe Deftones.
