Thanks. Hopefully we get those and some others that are about......... 

I see now that Kungs has three French dates in the RW weekend (Garorock, Mainsquare and Velodrome Marseille). So seems a lot less likely

[thetechi]

Thought I'd get on the 'hoping to see' list bandwagon.

Must See: Foo Fighters, Imagine Dragons, Kings of Leon, Linkin Park, Nathaniel Rateliff, SOAD

Have not heard of before but will try and see: Kaleo, Frank Carter

Am desperately hoping will still be announced: Biffy Clyro, Passenger, Maximo Park, Sum 41, Frank Turner, Some really great folk rock act.

Great line-up anyway, but heres to hoping.

If I were to guess: yes, no, no, yes, yes 

Why do you think that we won't get don broco? 

[tyranicide]

Here's what I want to see from the lineup so far:

Must sees: Foo Fighters, System Of A Down, Linkin Park, Blink-182

Very Interested: Arcade Fire, Kings of Leon, Radiohead, Prophets of Rage, Royal Blood, Jimmy Eat World, Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes

Would Watch: Mark Lanegan, Mura Masa, Bonobo, Crystal Fighters, Alt-J

Theres still a few bands on the line up I need check out and a few I've heard of before but haven't really listened to. Does anyone have a Spotify playlist or something for Werchter where I can give some of the other bands a listen?

Because I have no idea who they are... 

It was also just a guess of course. I don't know if they're known in Belgium.

Any reason Alex clare could be announced his new song is on an advert for Nissan or mitsubishi and it's a banger

He has just been announced yesterday on a new festival in Eastern Romania that's in the same weekend as Werchter... so he's doing a few festivals this summer. I don't know how tight is his schedule then because it's quite a trip from Belgium to there or the other way around.

EDDIE VEDDER. HEADLINES. FIRENZE ROCKS FESTIVAL (ITALY). ON 24TH JUNE. I don't know if he can stay a bit longer in Europe, but please Rock Werchter... Get him on the line-up... 

[Tremousse]

[grumpykrogan]

Let me try this too.

Must see: Radiohead, James Blake, Foo Fighters, Arcade Fire, Prophets of Rage, The Kills

Very interested: Bonobo, System of a Down, Linkin Park, Royal Blood, Kaleo, Benjamin Clementine, Whitney, Alt-J

If there's nothing better: Agnes Obel, White Lies, Blink 182, Jimmy Eat World, Nathaniel Rateliff

Avoid at all costs: Chainsmokers, G Eazy, Machine Gun Kelly, Dropkick Murphys

 

Looking forward to the rest of the lineup. Saturday's Barn is almost empty, Sunday mainstage too, should have some more good names coming up. 

 

Would really love a good hiphop act like RTJ, ATCQ or Frank Ocean, not just bouncy stuff like Rae Sremmurd.

Oh yes. That would be awesome

[Mar2190]

Must see: Foo Fighters, Arcade Fire, Linkin Park, SOAD, Blink 182, Imagine Dragons, Prophets of Rage, Soulwax, Dropkicks, JEW, Rateliff, White Lies and Frank Carter

Interest but will miss if clashes: Radiohead, Lorde, Royal Blood, Crystal Fighters, Mura Musa, Rae Sremmurd, Xavier Rudd and MGK 

 

Christ when I type it out like that it makes everything look better.

Ohh, how great would that be. The only problem I see is he'd probably headline the Barn and clash with the Main Stage headliner. As long as it's Linkin Park, Kings of Leon or Radiohead I don't really care...

Oh my God this is the best news. Please God please! Please RW please! Please Eddie Vedder please! 

[Gossard]

I saw Ed solo in London 2012 and it's one of the best shows I've ever been to....and I´ve seen a lot of shows
