Primavera Sound Festival 2012

I was the same last year, non-stop action. There are some real nasty clashes this year.

I'll be at Porto this year instead.

I've seen some interesting shit so far this weekend. Mayhem was the most unexpected things so far- blazing pigs heads on the Vice stage(!). The Cure played for about 3 months, with 25 encores. White Denim are my new favourite live act. Enjoyed (but had never heard of) Trashtalk. Aarabmuzik is superhuman.

if you didn't see Jeff mangum yesterday i suggest you queue early. yesterday i paid €2 for a reservation thinking that's that. then joined the reservation queue which is 45mins long to find that he has been playing for all that time and got to see the last 10 mins. Thanks primavera

I really want to see Jeff M but I'm not sure I fancy queuing on a hot Saturday afternoon. Where do
You buy reserve tickets?

Mayhem was ridiculous - 'theees one eees for deeh pope... 'It Is Your Time To diiiiieeee!'.
