Contemplating the idea to buy pkp tickets.
I didn't fully understand the camping situation. I can pay 30 euro and have access to the near-by campsite. There's also the upgrade option, to get a tent. If my brother and I choose the tent- it would be 110 euro for both of us instead of 60 (30*2) for both?
Also: Do you believe Oscar and the wolf will perform? He canceled a lot of shows, and tho pkp is still listed, max is still absent from social media... not sure
So are Arctic Monkeys I expect they'll still show up and play their pitiful 70 mins.

Jungle / Wet Leg / Viagra Boys / Frank Carter all on at the same time.
This has actually ruined my day. Most of the acts I wanted to see on Saturday.

Where is the final roster of names for this festival, why haven't they been released yet, we're waiting for Electric Picnic to make their second announcement.
Because of Limp Bizkit I guess
-
I'd be well happy with a Pulp sub
-
I'm just glad Jungle is playing right after Tame Impala instead of just before

OR you're underestimating the ego of those bands. (Plus, come on, Werchter is no Glastonbury..)
selling stadiums isn't a guarantee of quality you know.. NIN and The Killers clearly haven't the same public
No you're right Werchter's main stage lineup blows Glastonburys out the water.

Seing bands like The Killers, Bastille or Mumford & Sons headlining this festival, and not NIN ... lol that's unbelievable.
The Killers played 11 stadium dates in the UK this year vs Nine Inch Nails playing Eden Project twice and three academies..

A great run of acts tonight and will probably brave the travel chaos and stick around for Royal Blood.
Still have to make the call between Editors & Flo.
See Florence and catch Editors at a £20 academy gig at home I'd say

Finally got round to watching some of the festival back and I must have been the first person on the live stream 2 minutes 50 seconds into Gang of Youths, makes sense I was the only one in the crowd who knew who they were.

8 headliners...ok...
That's Rock Werchter for you, there's also seven FNM aren't headlining shit.

They're about their music and visual show in a way that a lot of DJs are, they don't need to run around waving at the sides of the crowd and clapping their hands to a beat and doing singalongs - doesn't work for every act.
In fact it kinda makes sense why I saw so many Tool shirts at RW, the somewhat placid Belgians probably love that about their show, you sit back and enjoy the ride.
Definitely, it was like the crowd were paralysed where they stood in 2019.

Count Tool out sadly, they will only play on a new album tour - which this time shouldn't take another 13 years!
Thank God I've never seen a more boring gig, why the fuck does the frontman hide in the back with no lights or cameras? Headliners my ass.

If Green Day are offered anything less than an outright headliner slot somewhere then frankly they should turn it down at this point. If they've simply not got the fans in Belgium then fair enough but they just headlined several fests next door in France and Germany.
They're gonna be paid the same either way, if Pearl Jam and Metallica aren't outright headlining then Green Day don't have a leg to stand on.

I agree! I was mostly referring to the many "IFs" involved for such a lineup to be formed. Will Radiohead get back together and tour (with The Smile being on tour till the end of '22)? Same for Blur. Will The Strokes accept to be the sub? But one can dream...
Sorry yeah for sure Radiohead is mostly a lot of hope, not for me but my two friends who love them. No need for Strokes to sub it'll just be another headline slot like The Killers (even though they finished early) or Twenty One Pilots. My dream is:
Foo Fighters // The Strokes // Liam Gallagher
Guns n Roses // System of a Down // Royal Blood
AC/DC // Slipknot // Bring me the Horizon
Tyler The Creator // Florence + The Machine // Lizzo

Too good to become true but yes please!!!
Add QOTSA to this years Friday and it's no different in size or cost to this years headliners slate I imagine.

Arctic Monkeys / Nine Inch Nails
Kendrick Lamar / Arcade Fire (AF could even play in the dark should Kendrick have a shorter set)
Rage Against the Machine / QOTSA
Taylor Swift / The National (wont change my mind on this)
Boutique : Billie EilishIf Wercher want to keep making hand over fist selling 3.50 euro 250ml beers and 14 euro burgers they'll stay away from the teenage crowd. The day ticket crowd this year on Saturday were noticeably younger (sober) girls and that's just the twenty one pilots affect, Taylor will have that place swamped and Kendrick is only going to bring in drunk teenage lads that BYOB.
Arcade Fire and The National certainly won't be enough to impress the rest of us if they're anything like me. Crowds were so much better at Werchter this year (the Metallica and Covid effect) a lineup like this would see me bored to tears in the Rage crowd I expect like the front of Muse in 2019.

Radiohead // Faith No More // Snow Patrol
Blur // The Strokes
Arctic Monkeys // Queens of the Stone Age
Rage Against The Machine // System of a Down // Nine Inch Nails

That is extremely upsetting

Does anyone know if the larger lockers also have phone charging points in them. The small lockers are the only ones which specifically mention phone charging points. As that's the only reason I want one.
Sorry - Not sure why my post is quoting sacred shape below.
Nah they don't.

Really wouldn’t know. Played AB in 2020 which fits 2000 people. Barn fits 20.000. And Lewis Capaldi on main at the same time who played bigger venues in Belgium. Might be packed, might be like Wolf Alice at the Slope in 2018 which was ok crowded but not packed.
Capaldi at the barn in 2019 was the busiest crowd I've ever been in at Werchter, atleast at the front, it was about 50C as well. Overall the crowd will never get even close to busy tho the shite security make sure of that. I don't think Sam will be particularly busy it wasn't at the slope in 2018.

Don't really post in these parts but as I'm at Classic thought I'd give a heads up.
klubc flags themselves as full pretty early. There appears no one in one out system. The security go from nonexistent to over controlling. So you play a lottery with which entrance you end up at.
Once I got in (for the Specials) it was probably only 60% full.
Maybe won't be an issue next week but if something is a must I'd suggest getting there early.
It's always an issue it's a complete piss take they basically never actually need to close it.

Yes, every year they change.
So you won't be able to use tokens from 2019.
I know but I managed it in 2019 with tokens from 2018 and never had any problems I don't think the people working really care.

Just had to fork out £150 for a hotel room in London because no trains on the Thursday, fucking pain in the arse for a 70 minute Monkeys set.
