    to put it simple: best and most enjoyable festival i attended so far. devo, holy fuck, boris, eits, portishead and the go-team stand out among lots of awesome gigs. not to forget throbbing gristle for being far out from virtually anything. loved it, definitely will be there next year (and most likely the following twenty...).

    @ElektroHerrmann: Bon Jovi was certainly not part of Primavera Sound....The day he is in the lineup is day I vow never to buy a Primavera Ticket again! His concert was seperate in Palau San Jordi. Devo remains my favourite. For guys of their age, it was just unreal that they put on a show like that. Hooked on them.

    animal collective, shellac, caribou and boris were great. i was expecting a way better perf. from the notwist and bishop allen, or maybe it was just because of the time that they played. missed deerhunter and manman. :(

    Does anybody have an Animal Collective setlist? A lot of it was hard to distinguish.
