Looks like @Tuna has already replied on my behalf.

#24

That will give Field Day some competition for sure.

#25

Something about this lineup that just doesn’t sit right with me

#28

Too much dancy stuff that isn’t really dancy. Not sure festivals need to be booking django django and justice in 2018. Nowt to sink your teeth into.

#29

The person running this sounds nice

#30

A bit of context always helps - stage times, layout, etc., but it’s an odd mix

#31

Allie X! sweet!

#32

The creative for this festival is so so ugly

#33

What a surprise, a rich man from Southern California is a Republican!

#34

This lineup is a bit of a mess actually, isn’t it? Lots of stuff that just… doesn’t really fit together. Field Day and Primavera for instance manages to get the right balance of guitar/dance/trendy stuff but this just looks like they’ve got someone in who’s never booked a festival before. The undercard veers a lot towards the dance end, while the larger acts are more indie.

#35

I think he’s great, but at a mid-afternoon set at a summer festival DJ Richard is going to go down like the fucking Bismarck.

#36

I think there are going to be quite a few acts like this.

It sort of seems to be emulating Field Days of old with the dancey vs indie mess (as @iaminterested rightly points out). The proof of the pudding is in the eating, but can’t help but be a little confused.

#37

Justice’s current live show is one of the best things I have ever seen.

#38

Has it changed since last summer? Because their 2017 festival appearances were as dull as dishwater.

#39

Different strokes I guess, they were a real highlight at Glastonbury last year and their Brixton headline show was even better. Where did you see them?

Primavera (Porto).
