Confidence Man on Thursday Klub C, please and thank you.

MUNA, but no boygenius. Seems more and more unlikely. Meh.

boygenius (with MUNA and Ethel Cain) playing London on the Sunday. You have one job, Pukkelpop.

Don’t really know how it compares to previous editions, but this seems like an incredible line up for this festival?

Lorde playing Paredes de Coura the same weekend but I’m not sure she would fit in the slots remaining. Unless they’re going Lorde > FATM > The Killers which would be incredible? But seems way too strong. And Lewis Capaldi seems the obvious pick.

She’s too big for such a festival, and pretty sure Strokes / FATM / Arcade Fire are our 3 main headliners. Simz to Paredes de Coura in mid-August. Does not seem to play any Spanish festival yet unless I’m missing one. She would be a wonderful addition.

Any chance this sells out early doors because of the Billie effect? Really tempted to finally give PKP a go. August should be fun anyway with Blur early on and Cala Mijas to end the summer.

Limp Bizkit, Loyle Carner, Amelie Lens, Bonobo, Girl in Red, Steve Lacy, Amyl and the Sniffers, Ezra Collective, High Vis, Stick to Your Guns, Bazart. What a day that Sunday is turning into.

I would argue its not even the worst day of the weekend so far. And still about ten acts missing, including a strong Barn name.

That’s underwhelming to say the least. For someone coming from the UK that Thursday is huge though. The 1975 into Sam Fender into Stormzy!

Thursday turning into the best day of the festival and we are still missing a headliner.

Yeah to be fair 89€ for a Billie / Girl in Red / Tove Lo ticket is almost a steal. Only issue at Rock en Seine seems to be that annoying golden pit.

Surely with the obvious wishlist teaser and the fact she’s doing more than the Sziget date, Pukkelpop can’t miss Billie? Great first announcement from Rock en Seine. I guess my August festival choice will be between Rock en Seine, Cala Mijas and PKP.

Might try this one this year as I’d like to finally see The Strokes, while Arcade Fire are a favourite and the early line up seems decent enough. Bilbao BBK was a great experience last year but this year’s line up doesn’t appeal to me that much... and the sound wasn’t good. We’ll see in the coming weeks!

New single on January 13th. I don’t think we should consider her even as a slight possibility, but I would be all for it.

Not sure RW would go after The Strokes after that 2020 sale... Headliner for Live is Live / Hear Hear / Core at best unfortunately, but they’re probably too expensive for those festivals.

Yeah, pretty sure every poster here meant third down as subbing, as we’ve known for a while AM / QOTSA would be our co-heads.

She’s one of the biggest acts in the world today, she’s headlining festivals in Europe, she’s shifting tickets in Belgium. What else do you need to realize she’s worth that sub position? AM / QOTSA / Rosalia would be a hell of a trio. Maybe the strongest day of next year’s festivals.

AM / QOTSA / Rosalia then? With CATQ in the Barn.

60€ for a festival day ticket with Blur as a headliner. Still possible in 2022 then. Not expecting a lot in terms of undercard but grabbed my ticket without a shadow of a doubt. On an another note : Not a fan of Christine and The Queens at all, but the overall reactions on socials are frightening. You start to get why Werchter is going for the same RHCP/AM/Pearl Jam acts every year.

Here goes your Sunday Barn headliner.

Blur and Kendrick officially out on the same day. Great... At this point I’m going for Lana del Rey as Stromae’s co-head/sub. Stromae / Lana / Sam Fender / The 1975 (/ Wet Leg?) and a nice undercard and I would be all over that Thursday.

Any idea on how much the day tickets for Blur in Lokerse are?

Would need to play Werchter, that Eindhoven festival and Opener three days in a row then.
