VERY happy to have Future Islands

to me Future Islands and The National have much in common. not only the passionate singer. they both existed a long time before they got known to a greater public. they both have no weak album and tend to get better and better. who knows, may Future Islands are the Head of Primavera Sound 2017

I really preferred The National back at the time they hadn't reached such a wide audience. After Alligator (which is an amazing album to me, one of my favorite), I got more and more disappointed by them and by every new album. Last time at Primavera, I didn't enjoy the gig as much as I had previously. At the end, I didn't even got much interest to last year album, the few tracks I've listened didn't reached me at all. That's a bid sad knowing how much I had like this band. Wondering if I'm gonna see them at Primavera, but I quite likely will go to see something else!

Hi there,
are there any news, announcements, changes etc. concerning the entry to Apolo on wednesday? Was kind of a mess last year. Thanks in advance.

Best!

really happy about the addition of girl band. they're the kind of act i miss a bit in this edition. a little more noisey, a little more less-known and a little more fun.

anyway, in exactly two months i'm gonna be in barcelona, so everything's pretty awesome.

Also delighted Girl Band have been added. Glorious noise. If anyone's interested in checking them out take a wee visit to http://girlbanddublin.bandcamp.com where you can download pretty much everything they've released for free.

Booked into a new hotel called Bestrpice Diagonal (terrible name) which felt a bit risky cos I don't even think it's open yet. However, it's right beside the festival and was very affordable to fingers crossed it works out fine. If anyone happens to know anything about it or can confirm it actually exists please feel free to let me know! Ta

there is however going to be a hivern disc label party on the 31, nice!

"This year we will be doing some label parties in some of the best clubs and venues around Europe. It's the first time we're doing this kind of label parties and we must say we're super excited about them. […] Here are the full dates. We will post the lineups here so stay tuned […] 31.May ES/ Barcelona / Primavera Sound“

Metronomy starts at ~3:30. Moderat will overlap with Disclosure so I guess it will start by the end of Arcade Fire.

Since Metronomy is gonna be on Rayban stage and Moderat on ATP I guess Metronomy will start just as soon as Moderat ends.

[branvan]

thank you for this information!!

So the first obvious, if provisional, clash is St Vincent and Neutral Milk Hotel. Will have seen St Vincent twice by the time of Primavera, so NMH it is.
Can we expect The National at a similar time to Arcade Fire the previous night, so approx 00:30 ?
