    Metallica two nights? Given (i) Hellfest and Graspop being different weekends next year, (ii) both being four days, and (iii) Metallica being in Europe (with gaps for both weekends), I would think it's a strong possibility.

    Volbeat is not touring next summer so we can rule them out. 

    Metallica x2, Iron Maiden and A7X...bring it on🤘

    Headliners

    Thursday: foo fighters

    Friday: arcade fire/pulp

    Saturday: Coldplay

    Sunday: Katy Perry/ sam fender 

    Pearl Jam might have a new album out by next summer and RW seems to book them every possible chance they have, so....

    Are 30 Seconds to Mars still headliner material in 2024? I'd be pretty meh on them taking up a headline slot tbh.

    They did not headline in 2010 nor 2013.

    2010: 30STM - Editors - Green Day
    2013: 30STM - Depeche Mode - Editors

    ...and they will not headline in 2024 😉

    Their most recent Belgian shows had terrible ticket sales. If the story is true that their egos won't accept anything less than main stage headliners, we won't see them at RW again...

    In a co-headlining spot maybe? ...like in 2017 with Arcade Fire?

    Not sure why there is certainty here on Blur. The fact that Lokerse Feesten have not sold out shows that the interest isn't there.

    There is no certainty, but they are in the area at that time and the whole place was buzzing last time they played in 2013....

    Not sure that those "rules" apply under these circumstances. Also, wasn't Faith No More playing Graspop the same year as they stepped in for Foo Fighters?

    Faith no more played GMM on Sunday and then RW four days later on Thursday. I don't know how ticket sales are going at the Lokerse Festival but if/when it's sold out I see no reason why Blur couldn't be added to RW....especially considering Lokerse Festival is in the middle of August....

    So I´m a bit bored so I will try to guess artists that still might be announced in the coming weeks. The following ones are free around Werchter: 
    -M83

    - Foals (not likely since they play New Orleans 6th of July)

    - Måneskin (I know they played last year but so did RHCP)

    - Mars Volta 

    - Prodigy (perhaps too big) 

    - Franz Ferdinand

    - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

    What about The Hives? ....or even Wolfmother, though they already have a Belgian festival booked in May...

    Normally I would agree, but with the inflation people who'd like to go simply might not have the funds this year.

    People not affording to go would manly be younger people and the lineup is more suited for them imo....

    Nop. This week was all bout Pukkelpop. Next week should be for GraspopWerchter has announced all their headliners already and the major part of undercards so I guess we'll wait at least 2-3 more weeks to have more names... except if some days are not selling well.

    It would be very interesting to see ticket sales numbers as ticket sales is the best way to see if a lineup is good or not...

  10. On this day 10 years ago RW added Sigur Rós, Of Monsters and Men, Band of Horses, 30 Seconds to Mars, Graveyard, Airbourne, Phoenix, Bloc Party, Two Door Cinema Club among other bands....adding to Depeche Mode, Rammstein, Green Day, Blur, Kings of Leon, Volbeat, Editors and others...oh how the mighty as fallen 😉

    ...no, not all of these bands are my kind of music, but the over-all lineup is miles better then the current one!
