Primavera Sound 10th Anniversary
Looks like you will be able to vote for your favourite artists that have played the festival for next years event.
From their website:
The tenth edition of Primavera Sound is gathering momentum, and this year we have decided to take the usual participation of the festival’s public through our forum, one step further. To this end we have created a questionnaire in which all the registered users of our forum can vote for their favourite concert in the history of Primavera Sound. We have chosen a limited number from each year.
To participate in the survey all you have to do is be registered on the forum of our web (http://www.primaverasound.com/foros/) and fill out the questionnaire which is at the following address http://encuesta.primaverasound.com.
The process is simple: Choose the years you have been to the festival, and once you have done this chose five artists from each edition, except in 2001 in which there are only two options. From this first stage we will get 50 artists, from which 25 will be chosen in the second stage. From these 25 acts we will ask the public to chose who should play at Primavera Sound 2010.
We will do everything possible to bring the artists who are chosen in this survey to our tenth anniversary, we think that it is a nice way to celebrate ten years of something which has become for many people (including ourselves) an unmissable musical event.

love primavera so much!
uber.
awesome-o
can't wait.
i sneakily voted for a year i wasn't there as the suggestions they gave were so good.
Yeah, I haven't ever been before so will have to lie in order to use my
vote.
Democracy in action.
Can't wait.
this is worse than Afghanistan
It's like Florida
all over again.
Yes we can!
(yes I know I have mixed up my campaigns there, shut it)
want!
I noticed
That seetickets has this up as 'Primavera 2010 with Pavement'
so does Lastfm.
it's just rumour at this stage, but apparently they're going announcing the first act very very soon
Ah right
Honestly i think everyone would be surprised if they didn't play this
Cool
I'm thinking of giving Primavera a go next year. Does anyone know whenabouts it goes on sale so i can plan?
According to seetickets
Friday
I thought it was dec 1st
from the official site?
the official site is pretty confusing
it also doesn't list seetickets as somewhere to buy tickets from, it mentions ticketmaster
Yeah
the website is ridiculously bad! I previously found that date on there but can't now. Just banging on about the dual tickets for Prima and the christmas thing. No real panic though, it doesn't usually sell out superfast. I could do with not getting bummed to death by Seetickets though.
I've just added myself to their mailing list
You'd assume they'd do a mailout when they put tickets on sale? Probably be in spanish though.
si si si
scorchio!
(not racist)
Yes, and all mailings come in English/Spanish/Catalan
Judging by the exchange rate the prices aren't going to be that different
I just avoid SeeTickets on principle.
Tickets on sale with seetickets now!
"earlybirds" apparently. Trying not to panic buy, trying not to panic buy.....
£186.25 for two tickets on seetickets.
REALLY struggling to not buy those bad boys, even though I hate those bastards.
Have booked a killer hotel though. Come on May!
Is your hotel near the venue?
Which one? etc. I've had three years of cheap shoddy places and I want to stay in a decent place next to the venue this year.
Right by the site
Never been before, but google earth makes it look like you see into the festival from the rooftop pool (well, nearly). Called hotel diagonal zero. Looks amazing. KInd of need a place right by the site as my girlf will be going to bed way before me, and don't want to spend the entire weekend travelling back and forth across the city making sure she is okay. And I am a snob.
Yeah I think I'm booking that one or the princess
which is just over the road. Don't be ashamed of being a snob.
it's skill
I stayed there last year
it's skill
I stayed there last year and it was ace - don't pay extra for a sea view unless you want to listen to mc-ing until 5am. The pool isn't all that.
Excellent, thanks
I think we have booked a sea view room - will get the girlf right on that to cancel it. Cheers.
You' should still be at the festival at 5am anyway!
Appear to have taken tickets off now
dun dun duhhhhhh!
the prices better not go up.
Usually
the early bird prices are consistent, no? I think they lasted for a few weeks last time.. if I remember correctly.
urgh - WHY IS THE TENTH ANNIVERSARY
ON THE YEAR I WILL DEFINITELY NOT BE ABLE TO GO? I hate all you fuckers with your lack of commitments...
totally going back next year
I missed it this year lots.
according to the forum it seems they will make the first line-up announcement this afternoon.
!!
here is an exact google translation of the Spanish text...
Good morning girls.
Today is officially launches PS'10.
Early in the afternoon (coffee time) give the first confirmation for this issue and will announce further output to the first sale of fertilizers. I will also here to talk a little about what you want and resolve any doubt exists.
AMAZING
'announce further output to the first sale of fertilisers'
?? :D i don't need an announcement now, that's made my day
yeah!
tickets always comes up as fertilisers!
you only got a hour to do the sweepstake!!
Hello everybody,
This year the band sweepstake for Primavera Sound 2010 will be official.
Each contestant must try to guess 20 bands that will play the next edition of the festival. The one with more correct answers before the first official confirmations will be the winner. If there´s a tie the winner will the the first one that sent the post. If there´s an official leak from any band or management that band would be eliminated from the sweepstake. If someone guessed that band before the leak it would be correct.
Prize:
Double room at the organization hotel and lunch and dinner for two people on the artists catering during the whole festival (thursday, friday and saturday).
We´ll contact the winner through a private message.
The sweepstake will be public and must be done here http://www.primaverasound.com/foros/viewtopic.php?t=6322
Pavement are confirmed for this :-)
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Woooooooooooooooooooo
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
(zowee)
Jamie do u know when tickets are goin on sale?
today i believe
check the website
two tickets through paypal is 184.99 GBP (at todays rate)
not much difference to seetickets (186.25)
Booking now.....
alright.
...and
booked!
Just done a puke with excitement.
i'm so happy i could cry
I must have posted this before
But about 18 months ago I had a dream I was at a Pavement comeback show, in the sun, outside and they opened with Fame Thrower. Two parts of this dream are in place, if the third happens my brain will melt.
Beyond the most excited man ever.
Do they just announce one act
for the earlybird tickets usually? I'm a bit skint so don't really fancy booking it just because they've announced one band (who might end up being totally shit) and might not confirm any others for months. Sob.
They normally release the first batch of acts on the 1st of december
you won't have to wait months - also the tickets only go up by 5 euros in december and it won't sell out.
Just booked a ticket
So that I have to go whatever mates decide to do. Loved it last year and Benicassim is now not half as much fun as previous years, though I think this would have been my 10th in a row t
I am feeling a strange lull today
now that everything is booked. Seven months to go.....ouch!
However a quick miffler question: Seetickets say it runs from the 26th. That's not right is it? I hope not because I am flying in on Paveday - the 27th.
The festival proper
will run from the 27th, but there are a lot of festival related warm-up gigs in the days leading up to the big event.
Is anyone else having any trouble registering on the forum?
it's the final question to check I'm not a spambot, what am i meant to put? It's not like there's anything to type out
Si
As in, yes, I am a human.
be careful though....
sometimes the question switches to "are you a robot?" and i still put "yes"!!!
I got stuck on that for ages
I got in a right piss about it, then asked my girlf "what would you say is the correct answer to 'am I a robot?" to which she replied "no?"
Then I realised I had been answering incorrectly.
Or had I.....
Second Band announced at 3pm today!
It better not be one of their local Spanish filler bands.
I predict Iggy and the Stooges.
is it one of the voted-for bands?
they don't say...
but I doubt it as the 3rd round only started yesterday
right-o. see you here in an hour
yeah, just saw the email...
how exciting for a dull thursday. plus i've already bought my ticket!
Pixies!!!
i swear to god they were my second pediction after iggy
who I still think will play.
nice.
still haven't seen them live
they were v good at brixton this year
very happy
News that is beyond amazing #1057
Well done everyone.
Fucking hell! I said the Pixies would do it!
I'm going now.
Pixies and Pavement for £85!
This has the potential, if it isn't already, to be better than last year.
well the headliners are much much worse
should be a fun w'kend though
...
Sweet
I'm the only one of my mates who has bought a ticket so far
Panda Bear and Ganglians will play, apparently
although the organisers haven't confirmed it yet...
