Optimus Alive 2012: the 'sold out' of Oeiras
Three-day ticket for the Optimus Alive 2012: sold out, tickets for the July 15 with Radiohead headlining: sold out. Oeiras is hot and will burn, if burn go from 13 to 15 July. The Stone Roses, The Cure and Radiohead lead a lineup of big names from the main stage to Clubbing, to finish each of the nights as they deserve.
We started very strong. A blow on Friday, hard rock, punk rock, electronica and a myth revived zapatillesca flood the main stage. Danko Jones, Refused and Justice Luso to trample the people go crazy, not without taking a break far more light with Snow Patrol ... before shouting from the rooftops that The Stone Roses are still alive. In the Heineken stage, all a bit quieter and far more feminine. The Lusa Miúda makes an appearance at the festival with their electronic pop, with opening act for noisy girls Dum Dum Girls, the torn Nika Roza of Zola Jesus commanded and more brazen Santigold electronic dub. More Portuguese representation in The Parkinsons whom we suck directly from the current punkrocker London. Make it palatable counterpoint Death in Vegas, a highlight of the day served with psychedelia and adrenaline. What next? LMFAO, Buraka Som Sistema (usual festival) and the entire Clubbing with Aeroplane, Miss Kittin, Brodinski ...
Do not want soup? Take three cups! The Cure come to Oeiras how often plan three hours at Primavera Sound? We do not know. But it will be a pleasure to watch Robert and his curling hair. All for to hear "Push" or "The Lovecats" live. Also on the main stage we can see Florence + The Machine, which makes the Optimus Alive after her performance in 2010 where we surprised everyone with their dancing barefoot woodstockianos. We will folkies with Mumford & Sons and Noah & The Whale after listening to a Portuguese band that sounds like a revelation: We Trust. What other placos? Electronic good in Clubbing with James Murphy & Pat Mahoney, the house of Guy Gerber ... The sweetness of Here We Go Magic, the theatrical scenic Blasted Mechanism, the dream pop of The Antlers ... and the great Tricky, always unpredictable stage. Great variety in the day eclectic.
The goodbyes are bitter ... unless Radiohead is up on stage to say goodbye to the sixth edition of the Optimus Alive. This is the explanation of the sold out of this day, the culmination of three headliners of cracking and three scenarios full of different styles, but with representatives of divergent quality. And so divergent. At the same stage as Thom Yorke's band perform, they will advance the experimental rock of the Lusitanian Paus, pop and electronics Kooks Caribou. Meanwhile, the girls of Warpaint create atmospheres in the Heineken stage, Mazzy Star will realize what is more psychedelic Velvet well defended in our century, Eli 'Paperboy' Reed will create an entire show soul nothing to do with the futuristic sounds of SBTRKT and electronics Metronomy, The Maccabees submit 'Given To The Wild' ... and The Kills return to the stage presenting his EP "The Last Goodbye", one of the most anticipated performances. What more to say? In Portugal, are of all shapes, colors, styles, textures ... like towels, hear!
The day tickets for 13 and 14 cost 53 euros (with optional night in Cascais for 55 euros) and the payment on Friday and Saturday, 89 euros.
