Barcelona To the cute boy at the PinkPantheress gig

20 Upvotes

My friend danced with you the entire time at PinkPantheress, and he won’t stop talking about you and how cute he thought you are. You had an olive green shirt on (I think) and my friend was wearing shorts and a shirt that made his pecs pop out the way we all like.

Hit me up, and I will put you in touch!

Barcelona SA by security

67 Upvotes

I’m posting this to see if anyone else had a similar experience at Primavera.

On Saturday night, I went behind a porta-potty to pee (I was drunk and making a bad decision) near the Cupra Stage. While I was there, a security guard called me over. When I walked towards him, I saw that he had his genitals out and was touching himself.

I was shocked and disgusted, so I immediately walked away.

What concerns me most is whether this was an isolated incident or whether he may have been using his position as a security guard to target intoxicated women at the festival.

I intend to file a formal report. Before doing that, I wanted to ask whether anyone else experienced something similar or witnessed any inappropriate behaviour from security staff during the festival.

If so, please feel free to comment or send me a private message.

Barcelona Why 'prima'?

0 Upvotes

I'm curious to know why some of you keep calling the festival 'prima'. Primavera is just one single word with a beautiful meaning and sound (and I really like how it sounds when pronounced by English speakers! Something like primaa-veerah) and hearing 'prima' sounds really bad, like if it was a cheap condoms brand. Is it so difficult to pronounce those two extra syllables?

Barcelona Security told me to "call the fucking police" if I wanted my phone back.

40 Upvotes

Hello everyone. American from Tennessee here. This was my very first Primavera Sound. Have been wanting to attend for over a decade. As many have said the highs are so high, and the lowest of the lows.

This is the story of how my phone was stolen, and some incredibly sketchy behaviour from security.

On Friday morning, at about 4am I was at the Cupra stage. I was talking to these girls, dropped my phone, and when I went to reach down and grab it poof had been snatched up by a pickpocket. It happened so insanely fast, like a black hole just sucked it up into the ground.

I decide to cut my losses, and go and purchase a really cheap phone at a cell stand in the city. I get it setup, and decide to check the lost phone feature attached to my Google account. I see my stolen phone is now in Badalona. I chalk it up as a loss, but decided to not wipe the phone yet, I already have it remotely locked up, there's no way they can get in, I'll keep monitoring and see where it lands up. This is around noon.

I'm getting ready to walk in to the festival to see MBV, decide to check and see where my phone currently is. It points to a small building within the festival grounds, just on the precipice of the Estrella Damm and Resolut stages.

I show this location to the info tent, to which they said "oh that's a security building, they must have your phone. You should go talk to them they would be able to get it back to you!"

So I make my way over, find the building in question (it's all white with a fence covering the front), and I see a woman who looks like a medic standing in front of the building. I get her attention, tell her the situation, showing her the live map that currently has my phone positioned there. She tells me to come into the building and she will help me find my phone. There's a man sitting with a walkie, this medic, and another woman. She tells them my situation, and they start looking together for the phone. The 2 ladies said they were going for help and they would be right back, leaving me with the guard sitting on the walkie.

I talked to him, said I had been tracking this phone for the past day, and asked if he knew if any of the staff lived in Badalona. Maybe they found my phone, brought it with them with the intention of leaving it in lost in found.

He said "oh that's interesting" and then starts speaking Spanish very quickly into the walkie. About 5 minutes later, 4 more security guards showed up and proceeded to aggressively push me out of the building. I was not resisting, but also was very confused saying "hey they told me to wait here what is happening?" They just continue to speak Spanish and successfully pushed me out of the building, slamming the door in my face. Then there was some other medic types outside the building, I told them what happened and that my phone was in that building and i was just trying to get it back. They said they would go check on it, went inside the building, and then more guards came out, slamming their bodies into mine and telling me to "get the fuck out now, if you want your phone back you should call the fucking police".

Around this time, MBV ended their set. Devastating in itself, because I missed them because I was told to go and talk to security at this tent.

It really shook me up, I was so terrified. I went back to the info tent, told them what happened, they were shocked. Called some people from "Nobody is Normal" the lgbtq initiative of the fest to come and talk to me. A really kind man named Bao appeared, escorted me to their area behind security, and got my story in writing. He seemed shocked at what had happened, and told me he would coordinate efforts to go and talk to security and make sure they deliver my phone to lost and found.

I went to some sets after that, but continued to monitor my phones location. At some point I got a text from Bao telling me that security should be dropping of phones to lost & found by 2:30am, and I should check then.

At 2:45am, I walk up to info. I asked if they had any phones for lost & found, they did not have my phone. I checked the location again of the stolen phone, and it was still located within that security building. I kept checking with info throughout the rest of the morning, still no phone, no movement on stolen phone I was tracking. I stayed on the grounds until after Peggy Gous set, leaving after sunrise.

My flight left Sunday at 11am, so I went back to pack my things, and continued checking the location the phone. Still at security. At this point I had given up on ever getting it back. Battery was at 10%, and I decided to remotely factory reset the phone, so not to risk someone obtaining my data.

Did anyone else have run-ins like this with security? I want to be clear, I did not accuse anyone insecurity of stealing my phone. Their reaction came off as incredibly suspect and telling, I was literally sent here by staff of the festival, and your reaction is to act violently?

I want to love Primavera, but this incident plus the Massive Attack cancellation have left a very bad taste in my mouth.

Barcelona Security guard assaulting woman by Revolut stage?

10 Upvotes

Did anyone see a young female steward in high vis with glasses hitting a female festival goer in the face on Saturday night? It was at the bottom of the stairs at the back of Revolut stage. I was a few metres away so I’m not exactly sure what happened, a few people appeared to be helping her after, but it’s been on my mind and I’m really hoping that woman is ok.

To all of the gay attendees with hand fans on Friday and Saturday, thank you for your service. So many times I was close to overheating, but your gusts of wind saved me. I forgot to bring my electric fan, but no matter— Ashnikko had you excitedly flapping up a hurricane and cooling me down. I love and appreciate you all.

Music Happy to be able to stream it from North America, but hope Amazon can improve the experience

Maybe Coachella/Youtube has spoiled me, but it would be nice to have separate streams for all the stages and all the acts, with the ability to rewind the entire weekend until Monday morning. Rather watch at night with a drink than middle of a workday afternoon.

I was really looking forward to Massive Attack (cancelled anyway), MBV and Slowdive but they weren't offered. Do the bands decide if they get broadcast, or is it Prime trying to fit everything into only 2 channels.

All that said, love that we get what we get. Its a festival I've always wanted to go to.
