Gossard Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 5 minutes ago, thetime said: Lineup pretty average so far for my tastes. The headliners are pretty weak I think. Not that QOTSA, PJ, Gorillaz or Nick Cave are not quality acts, it's just QOTSA have never headlined, nor has Nick Cave, and Gorillaz is more like a party act imo, so that leaves just PJ as the only huge headliner. Arctic Monkeys are pretty big also but for RW standards I'd stll think that's too week with only PJ and AM. Muse on Sunday could rescue the headliners, but I can't see Muse co-headline with Nick Cave. It has nothing to do with these bands not being good enough. But compared to previous years, I still feel like we're missing at least two huge names. When AM and PJ played in 2014 we also had Metallica and King of Leon as headliners....

neacaisa Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 they may have a huge pop name on the AM or nick cave day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCallion Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Bit of a tangent, but those who have stayed in The Hive Resort before, is it worth the extra money? Also what are the queues like to get in on the Wednesday? I'll pay 12 grand just to not have to stand in that Hive queue! haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think we could see The Prodigy / Justice, someone like that. Last year there was a huge lack of main stage late night dance acts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet we moaned about having AM and KoL headlining by themselves with their small subs, Franz Ferdinand and Paolo Nutini, and then about the dance acts after them .

Tuggster Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 The line up looks considerably weaker than the last couple of years baring a big hitter coming in somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways weaker headliners and a very good undercard night not be such a bad thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only have 6 acts out of 78 and are still missing a Friday headliner and some heavy hitters. Give it time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParanoidTourist Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 I still hope they announe an ancient band like Rolling Stones or something. I will definitely forgive them for the so-so headliners then;) (Pearl Jam is pretty great though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietediet Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 I'm expecting a batch of smaller/midsized names tomorrow, considering we've already had 2 self-confirmations this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MishMashMesh Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Hello! Trying to decide on where to camp, but I cant find any info on The Hive vs. Regular Camping apart from what's on the Rock Werchter website. The website makes The Hive seem really nice and lovely but I'd like to get accounts from real people if possible. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
