Dietediet Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 Tomorrow first anouncements for Cactus Festival. In past years they had acts like Massive Attack, Grace Jones, Wilco, Damien Rice, Air, Afghan Whigs, ... headling, and they claim that tomorrow's names are equally strong.

e2p2 Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 Now that Elbow and the XX were announced for Lowlands and other festivals in August, there is a good chance they will rather play at Pukkelpop. I thought one of them will sub Radiohead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're both British bands so its a lot More likely for them to be in Europe for the whole of summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heti Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 From today's announcements from different festivals I'd really like Ryan Adams (biggest clash from 2015 with The War on Drugs), Wilco, The Lumineers, & The Bloody Beetroots !

There are many worse acts and you could be converted if he ends up playing! Maybe. He does irritate me a little. I would hope for something different, although for a pop act it could be worse I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neacaisa Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 if the killers are doing bbk live, they surely are a possibility for the last 2 headliners spots, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is what is the size of The Killers in Belgium. If they're sub headliner size they might fit. There are no real headliner spot left, only if RW decide to have another co-headliner though I dont think either Foo's or Radiohead need it in order to sell out their day.

neacaisa Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 yes, you're right, i was referring to the sub spot rather than headline. probably, if last year macklemore and ryan lewis or disclosure were good enough for the sub spot they don't need another strong band for those two days. I might be wrong, because i don't know exactly how big is every band in belgium, but blink-182 or imagine dragons should sell more than some of the last year's subs.

gregory Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 If they do play, it will be the greatest lineup of all time, but I think you have 9 headline status (or previous status) bands so far, and that might be enough haha.

neacaisa Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 well, i made a little research, they were subbing coldplay in 2009 and were even further down in 2007, under chemical brothers, keane and.... peter gabriel. i think they might fit as subs.

Dietediet Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 They indeed never reached more than sub status in Belgium,so I see no issue in adding them on Sunday to sub FF. How many acts with headliner status (in other countries) can you fit in 4 days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muppetmark Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 You could easily add biffy clyro, Kasabian, phoenix (headlined coachella), lcd soundsystem etc who headline in other countries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
