Primavera Sound 2014

Verbal

can you please explain, what does that mean, f.e. JAMES -4 ? votes? or are they likely to attend?…

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).

@1dzbe1as:

You can't use any of the names from the PS vs Foro thread *, plus Dr. John, Neutral Milk Hotel and Dj Coco.

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.

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

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)
