We´ll probably have to wait until the press-conference in february. I suppose…

Oh really, that's unusual for Primavera.

We just have to be patient though (Arcade Fire has not yet given the details of their next world tour…)

Great to have an English language forum up again
Does anyone here know what is the capacity of primavera?

I think it is 40.000

Mogwai are also touring Europe In February and March. Let's hope they will still be available two months later...

You´re probably right about that. And this year, 60.000, and one more expansion of the area…?

can you please explain, what does that mean, f.e. JAMES -4 ? votes? or are they likely to attend?…

Those are the results of the September poll. Not so sure if those are points or "coefficients", but it doesn't matter. What matters is that you can not include these names when entering contest (it doesn't mean that those will play PS2014).

• You can't use any of the names from the PS vs Foro thread *, plus Dr. John, Neutral Milk Hotel and Dj Coco.

so i guess dr. john is going to play next year?

pixies will headline "field day" in london on june 8.
hopefully they consider visiting barcelona and porto a few days earlier...

Regarding NIN, that's very, very likely as it is well explained here: http://www.musicharger.com/primavera-so ... -the-rise/

Others possible headliners:

• Pixies. They are playing Fields Day in London on June 8.
• Queens of the Stone Age. They are playing a festival in Switzerland early June too.
• Metallica. That would be more surprising but I don't know a lot of festivals that occur end of May... Check this: http://www.nme.com/news/metallica/74076

Other bands that will probably be there:

• The Notwist: http://notwist.com/
• Mogwai: http://www.mogwai.co.uk/ (check shows section)

Other bands touring next year:
-Interpol

• Belle and Sebastian
• Vampire Weekend

the notwist and pixies are indeed very possible, although i guess mogwai might not want to extend their already long tour with festivalshows that early in summer.

also possible:
the national (@northside festival)
franz ferdinand (@northside, but last there in '12)
