It's funny to read that Werchter cannot bring back Kendrick Lamar next year because Live Nation chose to place Gorillaz in Werchter instead of Pukkelpop, and they cannot settle Kendrick, Gorillaz and TOP at the same day because none of them wants to be third down on the bill. Now Werchter has no Kendrick and Pukkelpop has no Gorillaz. Brilliant.

Hoobastank is the typical PKP booking for a 3pm slot in the Main Stage.

This is what I exactly need from Pukkelpop. An interesting line-up also for +30 people.

Viagogo? Leak? C'mon...

Once that Ken has "confirmed" that Chemical Brothers and Editors will headline (or co-headline) PKP'21, do you think that another "not modern headliner" as QOTSA can be booked? Are these 3 names attractive for the PKP 18-years old population? I am not sure about that...

QOTSA headlining Reading. Huge contenders for Pukkelpop as they haven't played since 2014.

Not imposible , for 2022...

Next year??? mmmm not sure about that...

Muse and RHCP are over 1 millon $. For sure.

Covid situation in Spain is getting worse and worse again (127 dead yesterday). Next weeks will be really hard for the country again. I can't see any major spanish festival annoucing bands in the following weeks. The mood is not good here.

They have a solo date in Madrid in october. I can't see them coming back to Madrid in july.

Rosalía (2019)

KoL?

@P.bintein said that RB and NBT are the biggest new rock bands, not the best ones... For example, bands that reelased their debut album in the last 5/6 years, Greta Van Fleet subbed Rock Wechter in 2019 and Prophets Of Rage subbed Mad Cool or Pukkelpop in 2019. I think that NBT can’t take such a high slots in European festivals nowadays. On the other side, I agree with RB being of the biggest new rock bands at the moment, but I am not sure if they are big enough to sub a festival as Rock Werchter.

Finally Gorillaz to Rock Werchter. Why Live Nation does not let Pukkelpop book nice big acts for their headline slots? Werchter does not need Gorillaz to improve their tickets selling... Every year the same story. It is annoying.
