That means nothing, I guess...

When did Bruce Springsteen perform a solo show in Portugal for the last time ?

For those who were questioning (me included) what's the status of TSP, I found a sponsored poster on fb that put them just below The Cure and above Bon Iver, unfortunately I didn't save it  

 

[moz4pm]

That poster doesn't really tell us anything. The Cure are headlining 11th, TSP and Bon Iver are both playing on the 13th and they're all the same size font. Could potentially mean that TSP and Bon Iver are co headliners. I think that would mean they have someone big as the Friday headliner.

And we potentially know that TSP are bigger than Bon Iver so we shouldn't expect a (another) coheadliner together with them

Agree. TSP/Bon Iver reminds me of this year's QOTSA/The National structure, albeit a little weak in my opinion, that's why I hope for another headliner that day (which is unlikely). 

As for thr second day, I suspect we'll get someone big that hasn't been announced yet, for example RHCP with an album due next year (just a guess). 

Probably about a third of Mad Cool's undercard too, and I hope for one or two surprises (kind of like Tame Impala at Mad Cool 18).

Don´t forget about Florence, she might end up at Nos Alive and not at Mad Cool, who knows

Well she plays BST on the Saturday, so if she supports The Cure fine, but she surely couldn't be the Friday's headliner. I mean The Cure/Florence/TSP/Bon Iver would be a maaaaaasive step down from the previous years...

[moz4pm]

I've no interest in Florence playing the festival whether headliner or not.

It wouldn't be a step down if they have a cohead with Flo and another headliner on TSP/Bon Iver day...

Well agree totally, I meant if the four were all there was of the headliners. 

Would certainly be in for your version, unless they "surprise" us with some trap crap

Ahah the only EDM act that would be a good shout imo would be Swedish House Mafia cause they've been absent a long time and I'm convinced that they can raise many voices. Please nothing like The Weekend in 2017 x) 

We're only in December so some great things are coming I'd be curious to know what's DMF's surprise! 

[young_contra]

They must have something up their sleeves with some sort of embargo, or at least I'd hope so

Announced for Mad Cool, really a small undercard, but they look interesting tbh

[alan_ts]

I'm wondering if there are some djs during the night; I've seen the past editions had lots of Ed Banger Record and Boys Noize Record artists on Clubbing Stage, but seeing the last two years I don't know a single act.

Good band.

When do they usually announce the full lineup?

Smaller stuff until May or June.

I was hoping for Interpol and Impala playing this year, but now as they are doing Prima is it still  possible?

If NOS Primavera Sound doesn't bring them I can totally see them doing NOS Alive. CHVRCHES, Arctic Monkeys and The National were at Primavera Sound Barcelona and NOS Alive this year!

Wouldn't even mind Florence headlining, if Tame Impala and Interpol subbed ? 

One quick question - if I buy the 5 night camping (it says 10-11-12-13-14), that means checking in on Wednesday (10) and leaving on Monday (15), right? 10-14 is four nights by my very complex calculations, that's why I'm confused ?
