Seems strange for APE to make a graphic for Andre 3000 and it virtually get 'self confirmed' over 2 months ago and still no announcement... was hoping for the rest of the undercard by now.
-
Andre 3000 and Sampha announced this Afternoon to headline 'We Out Here' in Dorset same weekend so he's 100% playing, hopefully will be a full set and not just the flute 😄 but the way he's put the story up makes me wonder if he's just agreed to play his flute album as a one off given he's already in the UK(?). would be a pretty big booking for third down under Nas if it's a full set. Was hoping Sampha or Tom Misch might get added given their collabs with Loyle.
-
The flute comment did make me wonder but thought I'd be well off as well 😄 but no, his story is literally the album cover so not very cryptic... Andre 3000 on the way then!
-
Today I feel… annoyed
-
Yeah, feel free! The lower bands were more visible than that photo, I just can't seem to actually find the shirt so had to look it up on My Orders 😂
-
😂😂 cheers! was just about to edit the reply and say to @strudd3rs I’d be happy to put the images together for a certain year if anyone wants them? I actually quite enjoy it 😂 if I emailed you the PNG images all you’d need to do is load them into TShirt Studio after because they’d have a transparent background. Would probably be half of what RW would charge anyway!
-
I realised this after 2017 and ended up making my own for 2018 😂 felt bad wearing it in the end because I had 4 people come up and ask which stall it was at.
-
I was there in 2017, lead singer was very unimpressed with the crowd, I specifically remember him stopping at one point and saying "We are up here giving you all we've got, but you have to give us something" so I'd be surprised to see them back.
-
Trying to catch up myself as well, I saw the interview of Emily saying she'd had a call that an American artist was available for next year and 'thank god we kept the slot open'. I had assumed Rihanna, but I take it if Coldplay, Dua Lipa and Madonna/Pink are the biggest rumours, the assumption is it's one of those two she was talking about?
-
I've never seen one of the other 5 for sale so had no gauge but that would be tempting, suspect I'll hang on to it for a while, probably until Glasto is North of £500 (maybe 2026 then) Best part is I didn't even pre-order it, there was a 'No Purchase Necessary' link buried at the bottom 😂
-
Sold out by the time I saw it unfortunately, I've had this framed on the wall for the past 3 years, would have absolutely no idea what it's value is.
-
I'm asssuming I'm not the only one to use Twickets and have the app completely freeze whenever you click on an Alert you have set up, don't suppose anyones found a fix? I emailed them and got a 'we're aware of it' but remember getting the same years ago so clearly isn't a priority. Trying to get 2 standing tickets for QOTSA in Birmingham later this month for my Dad and it's proving to be an absolute nightmare. Viagogo are offering them at a very reasonable £145 each currently... so any recommendations would also be very welcome 😂
-
@prestonmanc I've just put me and my friend in Group 10 and filled out the contact info so that groups now full, I've made sure we aren't going to be in external groups before signing up, and made him aware what issues that could cause if we did etc. Thank you for organising
-
It’s been a while but yeah that’s probably what I was talking about, and understood, im glad I read that because I would’ve had someone in a group of 4 I know try for me and my friend, be in a 6 on here and not think it would cause any issues, so when I say “hold off joining” I’ll make sure we are able to completely commit to a six on here before joining. Oh absolutely if I missed out because I had to go back and remove people who’d sorted it externally and not told anyone that person would certainly make ‘the list’, now I know that is what happens I’ll only join up if I’m 100% sure know one else is trying just for us
-
So to clarify, if me and my friend joined this, it would be pretty s****y to have any of our friends/family trying for us as well, because that could mess up the group we're in on here? I always assumed it would just process the payment for whichever refs it could. We aren't currently in a group but I will hold off signing up if that is the case because don't want to potentially ruin anyone elses weekend (month, year?) by not getting tickets. I take it the previous thread/spreadsheet isn't active anymore and this is the new one? I came on looking for it today that's all.
-
Surprised Wet Leg weren't announced today given the leak, the poster with them on it is still on Muse's website as well. https://www.muse.mu/news/rock-werchter-323316 Seems odd to have had them on and then removed them, given that Thursday already had the fewest names, half compared to Sunday now. Guessing it's more likely RW are thinking about changing their day, than they've dropped out?
-
It's a difficult one to predict, if there is a headliner to come for both Thu/Fri, which one needs the bigger act, Thursday certainly for non-Belgians, but then Friday having RHCP, who headlined six months ago, will need a big sell for people who go every year. I think you're probably right and there's someone going to come out of nowhere for one of the headline slots, do headliners always get the same time slot? If it's someone who's going to command a longer set, that could be why Thursday has almost half the acts announced as the other three days. Suppose they could've just included a couple more names from The Slope/Klub C in Wednesdays announcement, but it is noticeably lighter.
-
With the big batch of names and them actually putting a poster out, are we expecting that to be it until after the New Year now? If it isn't Blur, perhaps that then suggests the other two missing headliners haven't announced dates for next year yet, would seem strange holding off another month announcing someone who's already playing 5-6 fests next Summer. Seem to remember one of the years I went they did Friday announcements of around 10 acts for 5-6 weeks in a row, but pretty sure that was Jan/Feb time.
-
Muse tweeted this, this Morning. QOTSA and OATW added to the top line of their days, which hopefully confirms what's been suggested, that there's another headliner to come for Thursday and Friday.
-
Sorry yes with NOS they are, Mad Cool it's however you want to interpret it, one the top line with Sam Smith, QOTSA and a TBA. Either way I'd be more than happy for RW not to hold them in the same esteem I do and for another big act to be coming!
-
I really don't know, I'd happily take another name but with Black Keys coheadlining most other places they're at and Editors being former headliners (still hard for me to get my head around that) I assumed they were the lot? Seem to have moved away from the double headliner structure on the poster which makes it harder to work out, I'd expect to see QOTSA along side Arctics if they were doing that, like they were with Gorillaz in 2018.
-
A very solid batch of names for me, I take it from this we've probably got all the head/subs apart from Thursday? Definitely puts RW on the radar, and compared to 2022 isn't even half the final poster. Thursday 5/21 Friday 9/22 Saturday 9/22 Sunday 9/25
-
Never mind hahahahaha
-
Well, that's quite annoying 😄 Had managed to convince myself a batch of names was definitely coming today. Hopefully this week, would quite like to see The Black Keys announced from the list of who's around, not sure where they'd slot in at Werchter, big enough for a co-head? They're playing the same day as RHCP at NOS...
-
If I remember rightly wasn't everyone expecting a co-headliner to be joining The Strokes evenually as well, but it didn't get announced before the festival season got cancelled? Looking at the last 2020 poster to be put out The Strokes are the only day without a co-head and their day on the main stage had 5 acts while the other three days had 7, so there's definitely some weight to that. Don't think Blurs stock has dropped much since 2013, so if they can cohead with KoL I'm sure they can with Stromae or someone else on the Friday.
