no bankcards either I expect?

I don't remember seeing terminals but it seems there are terminals.

Would still go cash as the best option.

I've bought drinks on card at the bars every year I've been. I haven't noticed fees as it's usually for rounds of spirits late in the night...

I don't remember seeing any; definitely no credit/bank cards for merch.

Am I right in thinking we'd normally have some sort of stage/time breakdown by now? Can't be long! Part of me doesn't want to even look at it because it's going to be so so dreadful.

[neontiger8]

Gabi said tomorrow, right? So indeed, it won't be long.

[Hip Priest]

If I remember correctly, he said this week, Thursday at the latest.

[Tuna]

Excellent news - thanks.

[Hip Priest]

Absolutely unofficial but someone on the PS forum has just said these are the Hidden Stage acts:

Bob Mould & Alicia J Rose
Cats Eyes
Lee Ranaldo
Los Hermanos Cubero
Peaches
Monochrome Set

[Isco]

 

Bar Peaches, I have no idea who any of those are ! Ha Ha ! I should have just gone to V Festival.

My Spanish not very good but I think the hidden stage bands are guesses of the forum poster and someone pointed out he had not included Monochrome Set (who have self-confirmed) thus proving the list was wrong...

[Hip Priest]

He copied the names from a message on some other forum and added the Monochrome Set himself as they put Primavera as a date on their own website recently 

[xxialac]

You're right. Shouldn't The Monochrome Set have been on the original list if it was legitimate though?

[xxialac]

The list does seem very believable though.

[xxialac]

If source on forum to be believed a lot of people on here will be happy. Lush to be the surprise concert before the festival - probably Wednesday night, not Thursday afternoon as usual.

Would this be on the same stage as Suede etc?

[Hip Priest]

Yes, you would imagine the six Hidden names should have come together and yes it is a believable list: Bob Mould and Farris Badwan (Cats Eyes) are both DJing at the Beach Club. Lee Ranaldo has a Spanish backing band and starts a European tour on June 4. Los Hermanos Cuberos are on Primavera's record label.

It's the same guy now saying Lush are the pre-festival opener. Again it would fit as they would be too big for the Hidden. He says it's not clear whether they'll be Wed night or Thurs afternoon

I guess Lush will play at the Macba, Apollo ie in town as is normal for the pre-band, not at the Forum (where Suede are playing).

If it's true, hopefully it'll be Thursday afternoon. I probably can't be there at Wednesday, so that would be a real shame..

That'd be a waste.

for me, indoors would suit their sound better and I doubt they would play to non-ticketholders (as Suede are)

they wouldn't play to too many ticketholders either, I guess. What's the capacity of Sala Apolo? 

[xxialac]

Interpol played there last year so if it's good enough for them...

1500 capacity

Set times today?
