I read this out of context on the sidebar and thought for one moment that meant we had a line-up.

 

Apparently not.

No, you're not.

Kings of Leon just got announced for O Son Do Camino in Santiago de Compostela with a note of it being a northern Spanish exclusive.

 

Given they're also at NOS Alive, it feels like another code for them being at other Spanish fests. This one, perhaps?

Big gap for them so yes I guess so.

 

Unless mad cool pull out an exclusive act it's looking similar to the rest of Europe fests.

 

Hoping for Lady Gaga as an exclusive. Muse and Queens to save it.

“Northern Spanish exclusive” is a very deliberate sounding choice of words

Is this actually going to be announced this week?

Would be idiotic not to but hey, it's Mad Cool.

 

Safest bet seems to be tomorrow.

Would also be idiotic to.

 

You don't ask people to spend a lot of money a few days before Christmas when they are feeling broke and distracted by the festive period. They've failed already.

Many people get gift cards and money for christmas. Creating hype shortly before Christmas can certainly pay off

No.

 

There's a reason all other festivals don't announce just before Christmas. A very good reason.

Do not forget that in Spain the tradition for giving presents is more on the 6th of January  and not exactly during christmas

Nah, it's both.

 

But anyway, a festival ticket is more like an own/couple gift.

In a year so weak in national festivals (vid. Primavera and BBK lineups) and also some International,  MC is playing with frustration  and  desire, some people remain undecided and they must be expecting what MC could offer, no matter announcing dates.

 

If they press the correct button, dates will be not a factor, if don,t, dates could be a gross mistake.

 

But lineup is the queen, not dates.
