At 7 p.m. my time (+1h) starts "Program Alternatywny" on Polsih Radio Station... Guest is Mikołaj Ziółkowski, director from Alter Art so company which organise Opener . It will last till 9 p.m. here and he is always announcing bands during these radio show . Be patient

What about The Cure? Are they big in Poland?

[Kuki]

I don't think so. I know the band, but as I remember, their last concert here wasn't sold out.

what are they the curing? they should be called the cause!

[Kuki]

Ziółkowski already said something about two artists, so I suppose no big names today . Maybe 2 bands for Tent Stage. Or one big band but made from 2 artists.... I don't know

i hope u wrong
PJ are the biggest band without the shadow of a doubt. according to festival source both Kasabian and PJ are in top 4 most wanted band this year.
i reckon, we can exclude Muse (already playin Werchter, Roskilde), Rammstein ( werchter, France, Roskilde) - so not gonna play 4 festivals during 4 days.
the other bands might be Green Day, Strokes. or something that hasnt been announced anywhere yet like The Who, Coldplay.

and believe me; Cure or Sisters Of Mercy are more popular than Kasabian. people who like them just dont vote who they wanna see on festival

only going on the quote: Mikolaj Ziolkowski, Open'er Festival Promoter said, "It was meant to happen – sooner or later. This band was appearing in all hottest fan discussions about the next edition, and this year was hailed as the most wanted festival band. Ladies and Gentlemen, Kasabian!"

[pete76]

other one confirmed is MANDO DIAO from Sweden

[ampersand]

thanks!

well that was a let down to say the least. ah well, there has to be filler somewhere!

[Kuki]

Yeah, but they won't play at Main Stage . Tinariwen will play on the World Stage and Mando Diao probably on Tent Stage
