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. 😍 Expand 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of songs are automatically reproduced through Spotify Radios and algorithmic playlists, also by tons of bot users. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we get new names as soon as tomorrow 🙏 Expand 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!

Expand 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

Expand 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 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Songofjoy Posted Tuesday at 12:35 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:35 PM 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?? 😄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
