Primavera Sound - Foros

not as good as gbv...but still i'd like to see them at primavera!

Agreed the Afghan Whigs were a fine band, would have loved to have them in addition to GBV.

Saw Afghan Whigs at Reading when their '1965' record came out - brilliant live band.

FUCK YOU BOB POLLARD!!!!

Grizzly Bear playing End Of The Road......Please PS

And also... The Antlers, Richard Buckner and Tindersticks!

Buckner would be perfect Our Blood is just outstanding

Yeah and his tour just these days involves the italian band Sacre Cour and they are doing really good togheter!

Is there any chance to see Mazzy Star? They're confirmed for Optimus Alive in Portugal which rules them out for Primavera Porto. Unlikely to play Primavera BCN only and then come back to the Iberian Peninsula two month later, isn't it?

No not at all loads of bands play both festival each year. Avi Buffalo last year did that

But last year there was no Primavera Porto. This year Primavera is a rival of Alive! which makes it quite unlikely to play both festivals, especially if it comes to big bands like Mazzy Star.

well Optimium are more mainstream than PS but PS have more power when it comes down to the independent side of things. Porto is a rival but PS Barcelona is completely different well I think.

The Magnetic Fields will not be playing Ps they are playing Barcelona, Spain - Sala Apolo a couple of weeks before.

Harvey Milk
Orthodox
Liturgy
Sleep
Melvins
Wolves in the Throne Room
Napalm Death
Mayhem

How to make enemies and alienate people, Primavera style.

As these are limited to BCN (for now), I predict a huge migration to the Porto leg to escape all the metalheads.

No Direction Home are announcing their first names tomorow (it's the new End Of The Road Festival wich takes place a week after Ps so you can get and idea of the bands who will most liquely be playing PS)
EOTR announced Grizzly Bear........I hope they'll play PS.
