    Fred Again will headline either Other or West Holts.

    But I imagine he will do a Fourtet-style thing where he does 3-4 sets across the festival throughout the weekend (of differing styles and at different times/stages), in addition to the live headline slot.

    Fred, Fred Again, Fred Once Again, etc.

    Noticed we're lacking rap names (not a MGK fan, i guess). I know it's never a big portion, but I'd hope for something more names.

    Is Andersons NxWorries an option? They're doing Primavera 

    Only Slowthai so far... Hoping for Denzel Curry. Would be a veeeeery small saving grace for losing RATM. And Little Simz of course, who is releasing a new album on monday.

    It's not progression, it's genre taste. Progression would be a rock band taking the next step, not deciding you are into rap more.

    I am not "more into rap". Ik like some rap, I like some rock. But there are awful artists in those genres too.

    Excellent. The lineup is starting to build nicely now. Suspect we have all the headliners and sub-headliners now.

     

    6 de julho

    • Red Hot Chili Peppers
    • The Black Keys

    7 de julho

    • Lizzo
    • Arctic Monkeys
    • Idles
       

    8 de julho

    • Sam Smith
    • QOTSA
       

     

    The Black Keys as a subheadliner? QOTSA as a headliner? 

    I guess NOS Alive is a lot smaller than Mad Cool but still...

    They just added that the package will contain over 30 names.

    But one of their comments also implies that we shouldn't have too high hopes about the quality of the lineup...

    After what we have got, the only way is up...

    Extremely talented and likeable young dude who's made a bit of a niche as a youtube star and music guru. Just collaborated with Stormzy on his latest album.

    His solo tunes aren't particularly amazing, but his technical skills are absolutely fantastic to watch and he's definitely smart enough to do a fun festival set.

    Listening to him now at the moment but I dont recognize anything. Doenst sound all too special either...

    https://rollingloudrotterdam.nl/2022/12/05/kendrick-lamar-and-travis-scott-confirmed-as-headliner

    KENDRICK LAMAR playing Rotterdam on Friday.

    Stromae / Kendrick hopes still alive?

    That would be a dream cone true but after getting RHCP 2 years in a row and Editors I am losing confidence in RW showing even the slightest interest in booking somthing progressive... 

    Kendrick Lamar was easily the bet indoor show Ive seen this year though. It would be aazing for RW to be able to present this.

    Makes you wonder why they're holding off on them if they're there. They announced their Hyde Park gig last week so them announcing mad cool surely wouldn't have caused any issues.

    Well we can safely say that "hell" clure refered to This Hell, a song by Rina Sawayama.

    (Saw Rina this year at Primavera and she was great by the way.)

    I think The Strokes are only doing late Aug / early Sept period.

    My guess would be  GnR / RHCP / Rihanna

    GnR and Rihanna are both afwul/boring live acts so I hope the Mad Cool fans get something better instead.

    What if it‘s no Billie in July after all?

    Maybe „all eyes on Monday“ means a lot of acts minus the last headliner? Which won‘t be announced until January?

    Werchter to Sziget or even Reading/Leeds seems like a very long leg for Billie. I could see her starting with Sziget and doing R/L, Lollapalooza Berlin, etc.

    I know @Ken19 ruled her out for PKP, but maybe it doesn‘t necessarily mean she‘s at RW.

    Yeah, maybe I’m hoping too much for Billie being the big Friday name. It can be something totally different as well. 
     

    Guess we will know more by tomorrow.

    2023 Thursday main stage: Blur, Halsey and... NxWorries? Loyle Carner? Central Cee?

    2022 W1 Saturday main stage: Einstürzende Neubauten, Jorja Smith, Nick Cave, Gorillaz, Tyler

    Not really comparable, imo. Don't get me wrong, I'd be fine with having a less stacked lineup after the 2022 edition, but I still feel that 2023 is lackluster by Primavera standards.

    You are acting as if Ghost isnt a massive name, headlining big festivals in their own right while being put on a second line here. And NxWorries is a very interesting booking and one of the most exciting curveballs on the lineup too. Very curious about that one live.
