 @Sziget2025_Leaks is it true that Shawn Mendes is out?

Funnily enough, as he was being rumoured for Sziget, I had a listen to his newest album over the weekend. It's actually pretty good but it's so stripped back and borderline acoustic in places that I could see a festival headline crowd grown very restless if he played a set that was heavily reliant on those songs.

He headlined corona capital a few days ago. I imagine it would be similar to this.

Is that meant to be a pun on his sexuality?

Of course not 😅. Out as in not going to be in 2025's line-up

fontaines repeat?
 

They've got a show in Budapest in the summer already

 

Papa Roach sounds reasonable, they're a pretty big band in Hungary, playing in Germany in August (not sure if they'd fly back and forth during their German dates though... maybe a name for the last day?).

Blossoms are coming. Franz and Nothing might.

@Sziget2025_Leaks is Rick Astley coming with Blossoms?? For anyone who thinks that is strange, check out Glasto from 2 years ago. Rick + Blossoms killed it doing a set of Smiths tunes. A long shot, granted. 

 

Also, Franz will be touring new music. Been a while since they were on the island, would love to see them.

I loved it there and I’d love it at Sziget, but sadly I doubt the usual visitor of Sziget would enjoy a set like that.

Agreed. It would be unlikely to book that set without booking Rick as well, like they did at Glasto. I don't see this happening even though he is a great party, but since Blossoms was announced, hey, why not check? If you don't ask, you don't get! ;))

Right. Also I’m totally ready to be proven wrong @Sziget2025_Leaks

They are a band that rarely plays festivals outside of the UK.

 

Its perhaps the reason why they tour so much, it's harder to be at a festival in the UK where they don't play. They go to earn there money on the UK scene.

 

I'd say its a big no.
