Primavera Sound 2016

*on a sidenote we have a place available in an apartment in the gothic quarter if anybody needs or knows anybody needing. PM etc etc.

I got in for Cloud Nothings in 2014, just got in for the band before.

I hope The Avalanches set won't make it harder to see Parquet Courts or Ty Segall? I'll see The Avalanches at the forum but was counting on Sunday for the others.

I cant see them making an already difficult task any more viable i'm afraid.

So in eager anticipation I have just started a Spotify playlist, split across each of the days.

First one below.

This is just based on my own tastes but open to more recommendations

Parquet Courts have been removed from Sunday's line -up; it looks like they will only play Saturday.

Well spotted. Had a look at their website, they are down to play This Is Not A Love Song festival in France that day.

Great spot, thanks for sharing!

Tried to play around with the Clashfinder a bit. Tell me what you think.

My whole clashfinder is green, it's only just set in just how incredible this lineup is. Terrified of these clashes - don't make me choose between Brian Wilson and Drive Like Jehu!

That would hurt :/

So is it possible that i won't get in Wednesday and Sunday club gigs because of crowds? i'm worried about Avalanches, Ty Segall and Wind Atlas.

It's definitely possible, you'd want to be there early and hope that some of the VIP holders go home on the Sunday as they get immediate entry...the Avalanches will pretty much ensure that people with VIP passes still in the city will be there with bells on.

[neontiger8]

a Sigur Ros vs. Moderat clash would make me cry...

Luckily I'll be at Lowlands as well so I can definitely see Sigur Ros, but It would still suck..

LCD Soundsystem killed it in Coachella last night (setlist). I really hope we'll get that disco-ball as well.

Solid set list. If they dropped New York and added Drunk Girls I'd be well happy.

[yaniv297]

Sounding great. I just hope that Heroes cover was a one-off and not a permenant thing... would much rather an original, and nobody can really do Heroes justice anyway. 'All I Want' maybe?

Yeah I'm gonna queue from 3 hours before for that. I would know VIP get priority but would doors open same time for both VIP and non? At least that way not all the VIPs wanting to go might turn up when doors open.

I have to say, no-one can do it justice but they came as close as anyone can get. Would mind it to be permanent, but a more original cover would be better if they want to do one.

The set by Savages is really good as well!

Hi all,

Please feel free to delete this if you want or have a go at me for second-hand selling but I've had the opportunity to get a review pass for the festival (which is costing me £50 so it isn't a freebie) so I'm selling my original ticket for £180 if anyone is interested.

I can provide you with a copy of my passport and a letter authorising the transfer of the ticket to you - Primavera have said this is ok with them and I will be at the festival so if anyone needs me for anything (they won't) then I can come and help out.

PM me if you're interested...

Decent attempt. However Suede are confirmed for Auditori, and John Carpenter is almost certain to play a 'electronica-oriented on late on a big stage' (so basically where you put LCD Soundsystem - with everyone else moving one slot back).

Also, I desperately want LSP and Beach House to switch around, having Beach House play before Radiohead. Otherwise it would be an awful dilemma, watching LSP or saving up a spot for Radiohead. However if they're on the same stage it would be ideal.

[StephenF]

Aso Shellac would not be on so early and angel wich woud be ridiculous in the auditori (they are already pretty ridiculous).
