Yeah I think you’re right.  
 

Pearl Jam

Green Day

Billie Eilish

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

 

Would be a fairly strong 4 with some good subs/co-heads.  
 

(although I do think FredAgain will be there)

I would be well happy with that . 

Throw in Fontaines dc and we are good to go !!

Pearl Jam and Green Day and there'll be absolutely no keeping me and my mrs away next year.

Hoping for:

 

Nine Inch Nails, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, Billie Eilish, The XX, Tame Impala, The Cure, Bon Iver, Jack White, Faith No More, Olivia Rodrigo could be fun too. 

 

Ok, woud not totally hate it if they were there:

 

Fred Again, Green Day, Kings of Leon, Eminem, Pearl Jam, Florence and the Machine

 

Please no:

 

Oscar & the Wolf, Linkin Park, Twenty One Pilots, Mumford and Sons

What am I missing with Nick Cave? I have heard of them but couldn't name a hit. I listened to a couple of tracks on youtube and it's very meh!

So what I am missing, why are they seen as headliners?

First time seeing/listening to NC at last Primavera I was at.

 

Was just an intense, happy, painfully sad show.

 

Amazing backing band and he just makes his audiences day with interactions.

 

Throw 'this is Nick cave' on Spotify and you should be pleasantly surprised

Listen to a live version of "Jubilee Street"

This was one of the ones I listened too and it just droned on, and didn't do anything for me.

Hey I don't like Chappell Roan, we are all built different.

Really? I personally find this version amazing, and it's one of my go to songs to get people into Nick Cave. Maybe he isn't for you 

[sisco]

Yep different people like different things.  Thankfully there’s not just 1 stage

[sisco]

Also got a song in Harry Potter too so quite clearly he’s class

One of the greats, with a awesome back catalogue. Certainly a headliner, I'm hoping he plays primavera.
