To into his tour schedule, I would have expected him to have at least one other festival announced. He isn't doing a single festival this year (so far announced) - not even any in the UK. Seems unlikely, especially after it will be less than a week since he comes back from a huge US tour. Don't want to be seen as a pessimist, and am still very much hoping, but it would seem too good to be true. But Frank is Mr 181 shows per year, would he take the risk to ruin his statistics ? x) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're brave doing something after the festival couldn't handle that myself !!! To be fair, we usually plan it so that Amsterdam is after RW. Gives us a couple of days to wind down and debrief about our favourite moments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazac450 Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 If there is no announcement today it would be highly discouraging after last weeks all Belgian announcement. Grinding to a halt almost, I hope not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arcuse Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 It's probably because Pinkpop released it's line up this week and is having their pre sale Saturday morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUMINE Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Any reason to hold back an announcement? Feel quite let down, hopefully some big names next week to make up for it? Or full lineup poster? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be suprised if they were holding off for a big announcement next week than 2 average ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense, especially with R+L (seemingly randomly) dropping a half decent announcement at noon - Plus it had a fair bit of overlap with the current RW lineup (Vaccines & Kooks) so maybe some of the other new R+L names like Slaves or Don Broco were also planned to be announced today but are being held off for next week to make the announcement look more unique Edited February 23, 2018 by RUMINE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radioactive Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 looking at pinkpop and guessing we will see some names at rw - sigrid, jess glyne, years and years, - woud all seem cop outs imo. We already have enough of this genre. Editors are making me feel they could be Friday closer? NG would be good- nothing but thieves were incredible last year so they won't do two years in a row i expect. Alan Walker is at victorious so don't mind him not being announced but from what i've heard of him he's good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
