It's my first time going, any tips? Done NOS/BBK/Beni before as well as a few over here. Booked into The Hive for camping. Is it a friendly festival? Slightly concerned about being there alone, has anyone else done it alone? Myself and a few others are also heading there from Manchester! While this is my first RW, I did Pukkelpop a couple of years ago. If there's anything about the people of Belgium you instantly recognise, it's that they're some of the friendliest people you will find! You're more then welcome to come and have a drink with us!

Please add some of these names. So much stuff touring around RW. What are they doing? Afghan Whigs ruled out imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunther Mickey Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) Sohn is a great announcement. It's a very good band. I'm happy with that. Kodaline is a little bit dull for me. I want more rock bands like The Hives, Billy Talent or Kensington. There are already enough pop/folk acts in my opinion.

gunther Mickey Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) The combo Kodaline-Passenger is very terrible for me. But I hope they clash with two great bands on the main stage (Wolfmother and The Hives). The best for tomorrow : Kodaline, Sohn, The Hives, Wolfmother, Kasabian, Biffy Cliro. The more likely addition : Kodaline, Sohn, Mo, Seasick Steve, James Arthur and Declan Mckenna. Wait and see...

If the 3pm announcent is like the last 4-5 announcements, then I'll have lost faith in this line up (bar the heads). This is do or die. D-day.

Neither band is anywhere near as big in Belgium as they are in the UK.....so I'd say it's as good a chance as anything else Edited March 10, 2017 by Gossard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenfire Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Hi everyone! I've been reading this thread for months and never bothered to comment but thought it's about time to get involved. me and two mates have bought tickets and are driving over from Edinburgh for this and I can't wait. The line up is great even after the relatively weak recent announcements. Hoping for Fleet Foxes and Biffy Clyro (of course) to be announced today. See you all in Belgium!

idioteque87 Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Just listened to Kodaline, yet another incredibly boring act. Where's the alternative music at this festival? Apart from Mark Lanegan there's pretty much nothing. Last years line up was so much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCallion Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 I'm still suprised at the lack of late night party acts. We must be due an anouncement on one of them soon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopsiclesandCrisps Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Hi Everyone, Been lurking on this forum since I bought a ticket a month ago. Pretty much agree with the consensus here that there are some great headliners playing, but for my own tastes the undercard can hopefully get better - although I´m all for listening to new music, Nathaniel Rateliff and The Night Sweats plus Frank Carter being just two I have picked up for the first time since artists started being announced. Personally, today I would love to see Biffy, Maximo Park and Frightened Rabbit announced today (the last one unlikely as they played last year?). Quick question to finish, my gf and I are flying in from Barcelona with Ryanair. We have regular camping and were just wondering about tents and sleeping bags, etc. I know Ryanair can be a pain in the ass with extra baggage, so wanted to know if RW did any sort of rental for the weekend only at all? Bring on 4pm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look if you don't like the lineup go to another festival ... the majority on here do so stop bringing the mood down, it's not feasible to see 20 bands a day so if there's 3 a day you like even that is enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not the only one who feels the undercard is severely lacking and that a lot of the acts are quite "poppy". Maybe you should look at yourself a bit and the way you post in terms of "bringing the mood down" with the way you talk to some people. Also, if you don't like people having a different opinion to you, then maybe a forum isn't the best place for you?

Go to take a listen to Dropkick Murphys (you'll be drunk after that), Foo Fighters, Kaleo (the rock songs like No Good, Hot Blood, Glass House, Fool, Pretty Boy Floyd...), Porphets of Rage, Royal Blood, System Of A Down, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes....and wait for Biffy Clyro to be announced.
