Jamie XX would be disappointing though he's rubbish live i've near unanimously heard Prodigy are back on the road as of last night, check their instagram I know, I posted it on the Kalorama thread. What I mean is that they may have had an exclusivity clause in their contract. Jamie XX is ok live. Kasabian would be a good substitution - nowhere near as big as Florence in Spain but cheaper, on tour and a large proportion of the crowd would be Brits I'd imagine so they'd go down well.

Florence2010 Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 I think the biggest problem they’ve got is that the line up is pretty scant for big names on that final day besides Florence. They have to get a like-for-like replacement really in terms of size or they will face a lot of backlash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDave Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 Fair to say the lack of a refund hasn't gone down well with the Zurich Open Air crowd https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0AGdWvfXB4tTe1EZZK6VCb2Qx1R53Y9f6iBJ1mnA4DXUtDmspgJ5KKdbSXGvBc3VGl&id=100044592092152 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern_Lights Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 Does anyone know how long the queue is likely to be for wristband collection on Thursday evening? I do not want miss Siouxsie (20.15) and can only get there for about 7pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year at Primavera, one day security also checked my gum pack to make sure nothing is hidden there. On the other days I was only lightly inspected tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drums Please Fab Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 I have a 3 day ticket + camping, but im not actually camping. Can I collect my wristband at the festival or do I need to go to the camping area first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxialac Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 (edited) There's no way they should be able to get away with this as the lineup for Saturday.

I’d have thought way easier to find an act that was already planning to be in Europe. They probably won’t worry about matching the genre.

Drums Please Fab Posted August 26, 2023 Report Share Posted August 26, 2023 The strokes performance at All Points East is getting panned. A lot of folk left early they were that annoyed by the sound....1000's apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t their performance that was bad, it really was just the sound, so wouldn’t read anything into this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
