[thetime]

thanks again

I'd guess next week or the week after that. I still think The Killers and QOTSA will come and The Prodigy could play after Rammstein, but I have been wrong before Maroon 5 and Neon Trees are playing in Amsterdam the Wednesday before RW so they must be likely. I don't know any other rumors, maybe karelaanzee knows something

[karelaanzee]

System is heavily rumoured for Pukkelpop

I heard Prodigy were sure, but it's strange they weren't announced last week. Don't know anything else.

Next announcement likely for next week.

karelaanzee: do you think Volbeat and 30STM will play before Green Day and Depeche Mode? If not, do you think we could get The Killers, QOTSA Mumford & Sons and Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds all as sub-headliner?

That would be insane - Def make it worth the trip from South Africa

What about arctic monkeys? See they are touring same time as Werchter? Mumford has only announced T in the Park? Does that mean no festivals or are they a shoe in for RW?

[thetime]

I saw somewhere that they couldn't agree on a spot. Arctic Monkeys only wanted to headline but RW wouldn't let them.

[Gossard]

Is the announcement next week?

30STM will play before DM i guess, they played the same spot in 2010. Not sure about Volbeat. Almost sure there will be an act playing between them and green day.

btw, if Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds play they'll headline The Barn i guess...

[DieSwartGevaar]

Lets hope so. Arctic Monkeys are not really big in South Africa, but then again Die Antwoord is from SA

I just really really wanna see Mumford and Sons.

[posica]

Of monsters and men how big in belguim? There not going to clash with DM or efitors in your opinion?

[thetime]

They're not really big in Belgium, I think they'll play in the afternoon, at about 5-6 pm so not at the same time that DP and Editors

[Weller]

What do we think the chances of Vampire Weekend appearing are? Anyone heard anything? Really hoping for The Killers and Mumford as well.

We can deffinetly rule out Daft Punk. I sent an email to the RW team asking if there would be a dance act on after Rammstein. I just got an answer:

"Hi Benedikt,

Im not sure if there will be a dance act after Rammstein.

I can be certain about Daft Punk though: they dont tour at all in 2013, so that means no Rock Werchter either, obviously.

More names will follow quite soon Stay tuned J

Kind regards,

RW"

...I think everybody knew Daft Punk wouldnt play but now RW confirmed it.

[branvan]

new bands quite soon sounds good!

many are hoping for the prodigy after rammstein. saw the prodigy three times at festivals, last time august 2012 and each of these three concerts was not good. they all had a very bad sound, much too silent. in front of the stage there was a huge bass but the sound overall (for 75% of the people attending) was poor. so I'm hoping for Fatboy Slim

[guitarbhoy1888]

so new announcement next week ?

think im buying my ticket next week so would be a decent we bonus.

the no dance act after rammestein thing kinda rules out the prodigy does it not ?

[august1]

I think its a pretty nothing statement which doesnt rule them out.

I reckon it be might be the week after next for names
