I think Sabrina was on repeat in many traditional media during the summer. Charli XCX was not. If that means more sales for Sabrina... well don't know since the people that were singing Expresso usually do not translate in sales. Chappell is somewhere between.
Ps: Kalorama Madrid also made a post today talking about the 2025 edition (soon).
5 minutes ago I watched a clip of Pulp at Glasto 1995. Looking at the crowd, and feeling both incredibly sad, but grateful, that I experienced gigs just before the fixation with every f**ker trying to record it on their mobiles. The crowd looked sublime. Moving as one. Totally in tune with the music and the band.
I am so, so happy I grew up as a 90s kid.
We'll se what it ends up with, but even though this edition is weak, for me last year was almost as bad as it can get (I hope). However this year Saturday still is a bit of an unknown, so it's mainly Sunday right now that really looks like a festival of its own. Hopefully a few of those bands I'm not too familiar with yet on the Slope can even it ut a bit.
I find sometimes that front-high seats can be deceptively cheap, but typically only in stadium gigs and as late production holds. (Presumably as promoters wish to milk every penny.)
