Get dialling n=Nowheretohide! 

its kinda obvious that line up is partially reflecting Gabi middle age crisis ♥

[xxialac]

Bis are back. Would be ideal for the Hidden Stage. 

[puckno]

Strand Of Oaks with new great song, upcoming album and Europe tour with last date 27 may. Hoping for a hidden stage appearance to present the new album!

[Orens]

James Blake's new album is awesome, and has a Rosalia feature. Both are performing on the Saturday, most likely Mordor, and could play this one together:

Bridget St John
Dirty Projectors
The Necks
Apparat

FRI

Cybotron in the audituri? Doesnt sound right, they should be in a standing show.

Also Midori Takada might fit in style, but I doubt she will atract enough poeple to fill it, she will be in a smaller stage in my mind

On some of the others I'm admittedly less confident but Cybotron are playing the Barbican so it fits.  And I just don't see Midori Takada playing outside - all her recent concerts were indoors.

Is entry to the auditori limited to the capacity? Have you ever stayed out?

Yes but it's enormous. Can't see any of these shows being too full - it will be fine getting in.

I saw her live, she certainly belongs indoor, I just don't see her fill more than 10% of the auditori. 

oh, and spot on about Apparat. Great single

Midori Takada gives a show with a lot of dynamics in sound, she fits a smaller, more intimate venue than the Auditori, and I'm struggling to work out where she should go.

And Sons of Kemet belongs in Ray-Ban, not in the Auditori.

[ConorC]

Can I find a lowdown on each of the stages anywhere?

Was completely unaware that some are all-seater!

They're all standing except Auditori (seated) and Rayban (seated and standing).  Adidas is a very small stage and you can sit there too. The dance stages are across a bridge in a different part of the site.
VIPs can also sit with a view of the main two stages as well (Mango and Seat, presumably named as such just to confuse this discussion).

You're prob right on SoK. They'd be great in both.

On Midori, I think there is no perfect stage for her given the point made but the Auditori is the least worst option.

In a world where good things happen to me Better Oblivion Community Center would get announced for this (they're releasing European dates next week).

And Conor Oberst could do a solo set while we're at it. And Phoebe Bridgers could also do a solo set if she wants. And since everyone will be there Boygenius might as well play a set. And obviously at my hypothetical festival Bright Eyes get back together and play Fevers & Mirrors in full as well. I don't think all of that is even slightly unreasonable, pull a finger out Gabi.

How do you know about the European dates next week? (Would love to see Phoebe at PS)

I got an email yesterday when their album dropped

[MatheauWillis]

 It also came with a link to their super performance on Colbert with Nick Zinner from Yeah Yeah Yeah's on guitar.

I'd sure love to live in this world of yours... I'll sattle with one of these things happening.

And speaking of wishes, Stephen Malkmus releases a solo electronic album in march. Since we have him with the Jicks, hopefully we'll get an additional electronic solo show as unexpected or hidden stage

Chai's new singles are ridiculously fun. That is all.

Their debut Pink is a great album, can't wait for this band live!

Better Oblivion Community Center have posted dates in May for Europe, running up to early May in the UK with no Spain annoucement as yet.  Here's hoping for that Hidden Stage slot!

I'd have thought their European tour ending on 12 May is not a great sign. Too long to hang around?

Well, there are plenty of countries missing so it could be extended.  I bet Primavera are trying to bag them either way, a perfect fit.

There’s been very little news so far. One thing that has come out - Built to Spill are playing Keep It Like A Secret in full for their set.
