    In 2020, it was a co-headline SOAD-Volbeat. If SOAD aren't coming, I don't see them taking Volbeat again. 

    You're right, Volbeat could only ever play in a co-healining structure with System of a Down, it's not like they played as a sub in 2013...or wait.....

    It will not be Foo's in the end, maybe better this way, it would be too early. 

    Friday headliner will be a first timer, very happy with this one. 

    First timer at Rock Werchter or first timer on the fields of Werchter?

    ...as the latter rules out bands like Guns and Roses and AC/DC 😉

    Again? They have done Pukkelpop 2 months ago.

    I can totally see AM doing Sportpaleis in may though...

    I didn't know they played PP this summer. I thought AM were very dull both in 2018 and 2014....but you guys are probably right, unfortunately everything seems to be aligning up for AM playing RW23...I'm just gonna have to pray for a good alternative in the barn.

    Yeah, I've been there all day watching people instantly grab tickets (maybe with bots, I dunno). Might set up my own bot, but I only need one and I'll pay over face if it's not too crazy. 

    I have a spare ticket....msg me :

    Just a question: have you actually listened to all names that are playing the festival?

    I've done so and have been extremely suprised and look forward to seeing a bunch of artists I never even heard of previously. Ever more surprised that rock music has made such a return.

    I have checked out a few names yes. But I don't go to Rock Werchter to discover new bands, I'd go to Roskilde if I wanted that. I go there to see well established bands that I've known for years and this year there are not too many!

  6. In my opinion this is the weakest lineup since I started doing Rock Werchter iin 2009. Even with QOTSA and FnM there were only five bands I was really looking forward seeing, now it's only 3; Pearl Jam, Metallica and Pixies. 

    After no RW for two years this line up is a huge disappointment in my opinion. Imagine Dragons headlining Saturday is a joke and the undercard on every day gives me the chance to stay in Leuven until it's dark (except on Thursday when Pixies is playing).

    But it will still be a lot of fun...and Gojira is playing in Brussels on Tuesday after RW witch makes the trip a lot better 😎🤘

    They will announce the Friday sub soon enough. And you all know who that will be by now. Wednesday they were still in doubt what to announce first. 
    I think the second TW Classic will be next.
     

    Why won't you tell us anyway?

    There will be 2 editions of TW Classic next year. One where Nick Cave will be the main act and one (on another weekend presumably) headlined by another headliner (McCartney has been mentioned for this).

    TW Classic #2 on the Sunday June 26th with Macca headlining would be perfect for us foreigners 🤘😎

    Hope you're not one of those idiots who's doesn't want to get vaccinated. I actually hope that those kind of people are not allowed on festivals.

    Maybe he's one of those people who can't get vaccinated for some reason. And even if he doesn't want to be vaccinated that's totally his choice and if you can't respect his choice (you don't have to agree with it), then you're the idiot!

    Macca must be on the second TW Classic.
    Kendrick must not tour 2022
    Ken said at the end of May that the Peppers are not a sure thing at the moment and also said that the Tame Impala are not headlining the kind of festival that Werchter is, on the other hand Herman Schueremans has a good connection with this agent of the Tame Impala.

    Second TW Classic? Will there be two TWC next summer?

    Too bad we didn't get any new names today. I'll just buy a ticket for the Metallica day tomorrow. And hopefully we gonna have names for the Pukkelpop at the end of the week...

    About the Foo Fighters, they always have several days-off during their Summer tour. They announce 2-3 shows, then 2-3 more a month later. So who knows, they could maybe be the last headliner. But like said @pigital, there already 2 rock/heavy headliners, not the style of RW anymore to get 3. Unfortunately... Pearl Jam - Metallica - Gorillaz - Foo Fighters could be so cool!

    You can buy day tickets for the Friday (Metallica day) now through Fifth Member, Metallica fan club...the membership is free 🙂

    Let's give some other audience a headliner too. I think with FNM, PJ & Metallica that the "heavier" /rock is well presented on top of the bill. And that's 3/4 of the current names. 

    Naaah, you know what, I'm still gonna hope for bands that I like, not bands that others like 😉
