Well I'm thinking the next drop is coming next week due to the following week being Belgium music week (with Pommelien Thijs + a few others). I'll go for Wednesday like the last couple of years

20 Acts - 17/01

10 Belgium Acts - 22/01

18 acts - 09/02

The Slope lineup - 28/02

That's mostly historical listeners and oldies listening to that type of music.

 

Weezer have more than twice the monthly listeners than fender. Around the same monthly listeners on Spotify as Muse. Bob Dylan gets more monthly listeners than both. Mitzki is another one who gets double the monthly listeners to the likes of Weezer, Muse and Fender. 

 

Personally don't think Spotify is really a great indication on festival lineups. 

 

Really looking forward to PDM, should be a great party. 😍

Spotify streams just fits a narrative for someone's debate. It's very easy for millions of people to press play on something they will or won't like, we're not losing sleep are we.

Often they don't even press play. A lot of songs are automatically reproduced through Spotify Radios and algorithmic playlists, also by tons of bot users.

The calm before the storm here ?

I hope we get new names as soon as tomorrow 🙏

Historically, we never used to get anything in the first two full weeks of January, and then the 6-8 names on Friday 4pm would start around the third week of Jan. 

 

However, they're in direct competition with a lot more now and definitely seem to be getting names out earlier. As @sisco pointed out, it was the 17th Jan last year when they came with the next batch so hopefully this week could shed some light on some things!

Yeah, it’s been a Wednesday for the past two additions and based on dates for this year would make it 15th or 22nd Jan with more acts for Belguim music week the WC 27th Jan.  Then finally a final package at the start of Feb.

The 6-8 names on Friday 4pm tradition died quite a few years ago, no?  

Expand  

Yeah, it was starting to fade out pre-Covid but it's definitely been big batch names since they came back afterwards. They're not oblivious to the fact that people want to get things booked up in advance with the prices of everything going up and up, it's definitely a good thing.

Wouldn't surprise me if we're looking at next week, something to raise the spirits as we get towards the end of Jan. I hope it's the 15th though.

Yeah I was initially thinking this week as I thought the Belguim music week was the same date every year…. It’s not.  So I’m more inclined to think next Weds now and then the Belguim acts the week after

Do you think there are realistic chances for:

- Nine Inch Nails

- Air

- Massiv Attack

?

Thanks!!

Expand  

 

I think Nine Inch Nails stand a chance. They played many times before. 

 

Massive attack and Air are not as likely I think. The latter is playing Lokersee as well.

I thought maybe because Massive Attack do play DTRH the same Weekend.


And Air play InMusic a week before.

 

NIN would be epic of course… Would they probably headline The Barn? Is that one big enough though?? 😄

Expand  

 

NIN played the Barn second to last back in 2018. But it was packed to say the least😉
