I know Biffy are now unlikely but what are the chances %wise for Wolf Alice and Slaves in this last announcement? They're the three I'd really like to see.

It would feel like a salvage if we got any/all of them

I wouldn't completely rule out Biffy. Theres still a big Belgium shaped hole in their tour schedule

Weezer & Twin Atlantic

Weezer, Biffy and The Killers

WEEZER WOULD BE THE BEST. May just be a song though?

I think it must be shows as surely they wouldn't release a song for just the US one day, then everywhere else the next.

The big question is are they their own shows or festivals, and if festivals which ones?

[Mar2190]

Aye I'm still blindly holding on hope for Biffy. Because that Saturday mainstage is too perfect a space for them. 

 

Frank Carter - Jimmy Eat World - Seasick Steve - Biffy Clyro - Blink - SOAD - Linkin Park

 

They can play France on the Friday, Belgium Sat then Switzerland Sunday.

Don't forget Kiss playing in The Barn... they're on tour at the moment. http://www.kissonline.com/tour

Hahaha.....bring on KISS, they'd be perfect against Radiohead 

But in all seriousness, it's more of a wishful thinking, I'd be more then happy with only Weezer or Biffy 

[Tremousse]

Halsey, Travis Scott and Gogol Bordello are not far away...

Every day they have an act in the larger font thats at RW so I can see more crossovers possible.

Does this officially rule The Killers out? I thought there was only one date left they could play.

No, this is the Sweden date I referred to. 

I mean, they technically have the Friday and Sunday free as far as I can see. But as I said ^^ Friday will almost certainly be reserved for travel and to get them from Sweden on Saturday to Belgium on the Sunday would be no mean feat.

Nope, they're still available on Sunday, the situation has not changed since they'been announced at Bravalla a consequent time ago

Come on Killers are young, they can easily be in Sweden on Saturday and in Belgium on Sunday evening !

That Bravalla lineup is terrible, wow. It's like they combined the worst RW acts (Chainsmokers, LP, Passenger, Rae Sremmurd) with even worse stuff (Halsey, Alesso, Scooter, Gavin James). 

 

Scooter would be ace

[McCallion]

My (highly unlikely) wishlist for the final 11 - Biffy Clyro, The Prodigy, Enter Shikari, Marmozets, Gogol Bordello, Cabbage, Slaves, Hives, Royal Republic, Blossoms, De Staat

[kevagain]

First time goer, and first Europe trip. It's going to be my first Radiohead gig as well, since the scalpers(touts) had all the tickets for NY and I was poor at the time.

Hopefully get to meet some people before going, since I'm going alone.

Cheers!

I'm worried about Saturday. I'd like to see LP, SoAD and Blink, but I don't think they all will be on the Main Stage, that would just cause overcrowding, so they might have to send one of them to other stage, but hopefully I'm wrong and they're on the same stage so I don't have to move much.

No worries. Blink>SOAD>LP is the only thing we know for sure to happen.  Its the other days which make us go

Hmm, yes, it's this I'm worried about.

SOAD and Passenger are two of my "absolutely must see" acts. I am preparing myself for the Saturday clashes!

[arcuse]

Vuurwerk is not a main opener tho and Oscar & The Wolf won't close the day. Is it me or do the tent acts just look really weak? Compare any Barn-day of this year to any of last.. I mean .. :/

The same. However Enter Shikari is ruled out and put Kasabian instead of Biffy Clyro and it will be perfect. But if they add only The Hives I'll be very happy :).

Cabbage and Blossoms are unlikely knowing their calendar (and Shikari ruled out) but Biffy Clyro, Gogol Bordello and The Prodigy are pretty likely, and Slaves, The Hives and De Staat have a real chance! I'd be optimistic if I were you  (I know you are!)
