Primavera Sound 2014

[retromoz]

ah....did contemplate Razzmatazz last time we were there....glad we didnt, i think.

Will get to apollo, me thinks. Thanks dood.

Any others for some 'advice' ?

I'm from Barcelona so I know some places.

If last time you went to Sidecar and you had fun in the same Plaça Reial there are two very nice places: Karma and Jamboree. Got to say that usually this places go a lot of foreigners, especially during the week.

Apollo I've only been there on Mondays and Tuesdays. Those are days they have "rock parties" (including Thursdays I think). Last year it has become very famous and a lot of people (too much maybe) go there. But it is a must.

Also a very good place with rock/indie music is Magic. It's very near from El barri del Born, also a very touristic and nice place with a lot of pubs to have a drink.

About Razz (like Apolo i think) it really depends on the day. Maybe the one who didn't like it was only on the main room, "where all the kids go" but if you search they have like "little clubs" in the other floors with a very different environment.

Most of the places the ticket entrance costs 10-15€ with one drink included (except Jamboree). There are cheaper places, but those are really shit in my opinion.

EDIT: I obviously wrote about the rock/indie etc places that I know. Like everywhere else Barcelona has a lot of clubs "dance/house music" etc. Here we call it "pachangueo"

Any questions, no problems on answering them

Does anyone have a link to the gigs that were on prior to the festival last year? Or even just the names of the places that held those shows that you can access with your festival pass???

For anyone asking about drinks prices, last year it was 5 euros a pint from the bars, so £4.50. There's also guys that walk through the crowds down the front and will sell you a two pint drink for 11 euros. People were getting there own drinks in there, though i never tried.

i really, really hope so. i don't think it's very likely though

They've just been added to the Governors Ball lineup in the states in June as well. Seems could be doing a few festivals??

[retromoz]

Obviously, they are a 'big' act. And i assume there will be other things to see.......But Outkast? All i can think is *meh*.

(Ducks to hide from the onslaught of abuse. ;p)

[PastCaring]

Hmm, so on 28th they'll announce the full line up, and it will be 'the most balanced in the history of the festival'. We'll see! Can't say that the Dum Dum Girls excite me very much!

[Uncle Liam]

Dum Dum Girls are ace.

Hope the Porto lineup is getting announced as well.

Hi, I'm landing in Barca on 31st May and was wondering if they usually offer 1 day tickets as I would love to go, also do they usually announce which bands will be performing on which days when they reveal the lineup on the 28th?

Loop, Slowdive & Damon Albarn I am making an educated guess at.

[Dietediet]

Apologies if this is a silly question, but where did you find out the full line up is getting announced?

I looked on the official site and the 'Line-Up' they mention for the 28th is a film about a boy working in a record store in Detroit

[PastCaring]

The article says: 28 de enero se presentara el cartel completo, which translates as: on 28th January the full line up will be presented.

[TheEpiphany]

The film is the line-up announcement. They're gonna put a big chunk of the acts in there, in the form of people wearing band t-shirts, logos on background posters, etc. After the screening they'll reveal the whole line-up.
