Rock Werchter 2014

[SOAD]

Been thinking about going to this for years and came the closest ever to going this year. Really think next year may be a possibility. Looking at past lineups something like some of this for main would be good (unfortunately excluding Arcade Fire due to above statements):

Muse - Kanye West or The Prodigy

Queens of the Stone Age - Arctic Monkeys

Nine Inch Nails - Pearl Jam

Linkin Park - Metallica

Biffy Clyro

Kasabian

Mastodon

White Lies

dEUS - or possibly headline again? Would not complain at all love this band and never seen them. Rock Werchter is probably one of my best opportunities to see them get a good length set also.

Rise Against

Placebo

Eagles of Death Metal

Franz Ferdinand

Deftones

Marilyn Manson

Pixies

The Kills

Just a few bands that come to mind.

Download just announced Linkin Park/ Fall out boy, with LP doing the first album in full, would this warrant them headlining again? Would love to see FOB play!

So we're thinking 3 of the headliners are going to be Queens of the Stone Age, Arctic Monkeys and Linkin Park.

With the 4th most likely being Pearl Jam?

[Dietediet]

Fall Out Boy will be at RW without a doubt.

Wouldn't say Linkin Park as a certainty though. Graspop (two weeks before Werchter) often shares names with Download more than Werchter does, and it's also aimed at the harder acts. It should also be noted that of all those times that LP played summer festivals in Europe in the past 10 years, they only played Belgium once. That was RW 2011, and on top of that the day Linkin Park headlined didn't sell so well...

I think it could be any of the following Muse, Arctic Monkeys, Foo Fighters or Pearl Jam, Rage Against The Machine or Metallica, The Prodigy. Could QOFTA headline this year?

rage against the machine just promoted signing up to their newsletter..

hoping this is a sign of live dates to come

[jonnyf]

Not sure if this rules out Pearl Jam or makes them more likely for RW

On the subject of Linkin Park, someone asked Andy Copping on Twitter "Are they planning many Euro dates or special for Download?" and he replied "Special for Download", so hopefully that rules them out. Could quite easily be bollocks though, man's an idiot.

I thought that, but the question basically asked whether Linkin Park are playing anywhere else in Europe or just Download, and he said just Download.

[Gucci Piggy]

Wouldn't they be advertised as a European exclusive?

facebook page is still saying their not ready.

i'm wondering if we'll even get an announcement before christmas

[thetime]

Perhaps organisers are just struggling to get headliners for next year.

Are there a lot of big headliners on the road?

Saying that it's still only November.

[karelaanzee]

Don't worry. First headliners for the European festivals came only the day before yesterday. Other big festivals that take place before Werchter (Rock Am Ring, Pinkpop, BKS) haven't announced anything either. Guess first names for those festivals and Werchter will come in the next month.
