Could we see Broken Social Scene announced? They're popping up on a few festivals lineups this year

That would be the icing on the cake for me personally

After doing a bit of research into last year, with 100 days to go there was only 3 acts left tba across the 2 main stages. There's roughly 40 acts across the 2 stages in total (currently have 26 announced) with 119 days to go. So based on last year's time frame on announcements would think we'll probably get another 10 by the end of the month.... here's hoping!!

Hey fellas, 

i've been looking at places to stay on airbnb in Lisbon. Is it easy to get from alfama to the festival? Especially for getting home at night? 

Taxis are quite cheap. 2 years ago it was under 10 euros for a 10/15 min drive to our hotel which was 11km from the festival site in the north of Lisbon.

7th of July : Junior Boys, Branko, SG Lewis, Bob Moses, XINOBI Live and Throes + The Shine will be playing on NOS Clubbing Stage at ‪#‎NOSalive‬.

They are pretty good bookings, if no one else was on, I would see Junior Boys and Bob Moses. Hadn't factored in actually being interested in the clubbing stage. 

Hoping we get some announcements for the 9th soon, With Miguel, Vince Staples, Warpaint, and TV on The Radio being announced for London shows the weekend prior and week of the festival. I hope (maybe in vain) that one of those turns up.

Tickets and flights booked. Flying into Porto then getting the train down during the night, saving over £100 as Ryanair were doing a business class deal so the baggage was cut in half as well plus I get priority seats and boarding! Really looking forward to it, never seen Arcade Fire or Radiohead live, so that's a massive bonus, especially Radiohead. Plus Pixies are one of my favourite bands, so seeing them again will be excellent, and I have tickets for their Brixton gig as well for when I'm back in England!

What do you think guys about this bands playing Nos:

- Digitalism: new album ahead and just announced the 8 in Barcelona's Cruilla Festival. Hope they come Live it'll be great!

- Editors: I know that very unlikey having just the 7 available, but dreaming is free...

- Catfish and the Bottlemen: only 7 available, very unlikely but... same as with Editors

- Jake Bugg: new album on june, available 7 and 9, 8 in Italy and 10 in T in the Park... I don't know about 3 days in a row, it's pretty young though...

- Bastille: doing concerts around...

- Richard Ascroft: new album, that's just a real hope!

- Last Shadow Puppets: 9 in T in the Park, pretty busy the others day on Nos right now but who knows...

- Crystal Castles: another hope

 

... come on sr Nos, just give us some of this!

Placebo is going to announce a world tour (2016/2017) on monday... I think they would fit great the 9th of July

They would, but the tour starts in October:

Any large sized bands can be ruled out for the 7th as the Main stage is already full. The 8th & 9th both open with a smaller band (usually Portuguese) so only really one slot, most likely as a sub to Arcade Fire on the 9th available to a large band.

Still think we're likely to get some decent names for the Heineken stage given the last couple of years we've had Metronomy, Kodaline, James Blake, Sam Smith, Daughter ect.

Is this just a prediction? 1 person in our group is yet to get a ticket...

Not a prediction. It's on their FB page. Only 1000 3-day passes left, 3000 tickets for the 8th. 

Be quick if you don't want to buy from scalpers / 2nd hand sellers.
