You´re probably right about that. And this year, 60.000, and one more expansion of the area…?

Arcade Fire confirmed!

[branvan]

YESYES. so happy i like Reflektor so much, i think this will get one of my most favourite albums ever (especially the second half) and listening to Afterlife will be one of the best Primaveramoments ever (as was listening to Sunskrupt this may).

Now hoping for MGMT to play. before Arcade Fire to the sunset... Good time for wishes..

[branvan]

i take part in the game: which bands are excluded, i haven't found them: Dr. John, DJ Coco, Neutral Milk Hotel, Arcade Fire. Others?

Those are the results of the September poll. Not so sure if those are points or "coefficients", but it doesn't matter. What matters is that you can not include these names when entering contest (it doesn't mean that those will play PS2014).

so i guess dr. john is going to play next year?

Yes, it's not official, but it 'leaked' after the meeting of organisers during which the representative of message board was present.

pixies will headline "field day" in london on june 8.
hopefully they consider visiting barcelona and porto a few days earlier...

[Sigur Ros 8]

What about NIN, are they confirmed or not??

[bousval43]

Hi there,

Regarding NIN, that's very, very likely as it is well explained here: http://www.musicharger.com/primavera-so ... -the-rise/

Others possible headliners:

• Pixies. They are playing Fields Day in London on June 8.
• Queens of the Stone Age. They are playing a festival in Switzerland early June too.
• Metallica. That would be more surprising but I don't know a lot of festivals that occur end of May... Check this: http://www.nme.com/news/metallica/74076

Other bands that will probably be there:

• The Notwist: http://notwist.com/
• Mogwai: http://www.mogwai.co.uk/ (check shows section)

Other bands touring next year:
-Interpol

• Belle and Sebastian
• Vampire Weekend

[weekendwarrior]

since NIN are to be confirmed, i highly doubt the booking of either qotsa or metallica (never ever ever anyways).

the notwist and pixies are indeed very possible, although i guess mogwai might not want to extend their already long tour with festivalshows that early in summer.

also possible:
the national (@northside festival)
franz ferdinand (@northside, but last there in '12)

[primaprima]

mogwai will not be in spain or portugal during their european tour in february and march…
i think (and hope) that they will play primavera.

Has there been any clue as to when the main announcement will be?

Looking good so far for next year
