Sadly, the only hope would be their last venue was a sh*t show first time round and they turned that into a decent one so hopefully with the extra year planning and this years disaster they can learn from their mistakes.

I went to the first Mad Cool at Valdebebas and didn't find it that bad, though it helped I wasn't there on the outright first night, which by accounts was a bit of a mess. It needed a much better exit strategy than walking to the IFEMA for the metro and then a bus with no destination on the front that we were hoping was going vaguely near Atocha (or at least in my case) but the actual site was rather good. The new site did seem to be being left quite late to be adequately ready to be hosting it for the first time. If they're staying there you'd like to think it is in a place to be better.

Yes I remember their annoyance with what happened in 2017, so I would assume that's still in the conversation and means they won't do it.

They can join the Arctic Monkeys, The Strokes, Pearl Jam club who got annoyed by Mad Cool's teasing. But: The National? If they aren't playing Primavera then I see them playing this one. Their headline set in 2019 will be 5 years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJ played mad cool in 2018 I'm not sure what the exact PJ story is, but if it's anything like the other bands on the list Mad Cool has a tendency to get over excited and tease bands well before they're allowed to in terms of what was contractually agreed* Surprised we haven't actually got any rumours for this yet based on the fact they often struggle to shut up haha. Looking at rumours of who is around next year I think they could pull together quite a strong and varied line up. *To be fair to them, with The Strokes it wasn't entirely their fault, Haim posted a draft poster with them on well in advance of when they were supposed to.

Drums Please Fab Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 The new venue in Vilaverde was an unmitigated disaster this year. I couldn't recommend it to anyone. Dreadful experience. IFEMA was one of the best venues I was ever in, for Madcool 2019 and 2022. Read the mad cool reddit or the comments on YouTube under their wrap up video to get a feel for what the punters thought of it. It wasn't positive.....

Yet IFEMA was completely slated in 2018 for being a shite venue. I went in 2018 and although my experience was not as bad as others, the first night was a disaster. I went again in 2022 and it was superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlierc Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Dua Lipa has been confirmed for NOS Alive for 12th July. I know not every act who plays one of MC/NOS plays the other, but strong possibility that this will be a shared headliner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to night 2 in 2018 at IFEMA and thought it was alright, but am aware that there was a lot of stories about night 1 being very disorganised. Wanted to go in 2022 but was still hesitant about international travel at that point. But I was aware of the 2023 edition having negative reviews. Maybe this time will have some of the quirks worked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Cool announces some shared headliners with Nos Alive very late so they might announce her later. In 2018, Dua Lipa was great on the main stage between NIN and Underworld. Unless she is booked for Bilbao BBK or Wizlink Center, I think she will definetly headline Mad Cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Kahuna Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) Following NOS logic, there is a possible headline as: FOO FIGHTERS (strong tidbit) DUA LIPA (nos confirmed) SMASHING PUMPKINS (nos confirmed) PEARL JAM (low tidbit) Question is what is going to happen with past editions no-shows like BILLIE EILISH, FAITH NO MORE, CAGE THE ELEPHANT or RATM (sunset)? And the great 2 questions in this festival: - The logistic fails of last year,s third day will be solved? ( more space/less people, baths in other points, better communication between stages, etc etc) at second attempt in Villaverde - Wiil be the undercard AS good AS usual (last year I remember DEUS, SIGUR ROS, PRIMAL SCREAM, OFFSPRING, FRANZ FERDINAND, SPOON, PUSCIFER, CITY AND COLOUR, THE 1975, MAXIMO PARK...) I ever thought the main asset of this festival,s lineup was the undercard, that is amix of accesibility and quality, avoiding the dangerous masses of prime acts (RHCP last year was disgusting) Awaiting...

activean Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 Went through some Dua forums and found this. I guess she seems very likely for Mad Cool at this point. "She's doing a few stadiums in June/July around these festival dates. Announcement before end of year" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Kahuna Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 LCD SOUNDSYSTEM is confirmed at France the week before MC; it would be a great addition, a long awaited act at MC. WEEZER usually goes along with SP; il would be another nice addition, also never at MC, I guess. Rumours about PJ at MC2024 start to be louder. Same Day that SP. Hope something gets real in 2/3 weeks, especially LCD & Weezer to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
