[Daniel Comino Royuela]

shit I was hoping maximo park showed up

[twiggyfool]

Does anyone think "Macklemore x Ryan Lewis" or "Fuck buttons" will play?

[Saeglopur]

M&RL is a very bad live-act, last year at Hurricane-Festival he was talking about half the set. Don't need him here :/

[hoollsss]

Sheffield to Brussels, I haven't seen any that are cheaper for me than 25.50 there and 25.50 back

[Corn1bread0]

[Com Truise]

Florence is headlining a festival in Poland mid-June, Limp Bizkit are playing Sonisphere UK July 4th, Kaiser Chiefs are free on Friday & Sunday, don't know and don't care about LDR.

[thetime]

Realistically, how possible are: Lana Del Rey, Florence & The Machine, Limp Bizkit, Kaiser Chiefs?

Have they announced a recent tour or so?

Edited February 11, 2014 by thetime

[Dietediet]

I would rule out Limp Bizkit, simply because their 2009 performance was terrible, and the organizers know that. They had the chance to book them in 2010 and 2011, and they didn't (even though they played the sister festival in 2011).

Also, I wouldn't put money on (a high spot for) Kaiser Chiefs, two weeks ago they were begging the organizers to call them in an interview....

[Gossard]

Limp Bizkit terrible in 2009? I'm no LB fan and this Nu Metal scene is not my thing but me and all my mates were very impressed with LB in 2009. They got the crowd going and were very humble. I hope they'll play this year as there is not one band I like on Friday or Sunday...

[foolee]

I'd say they are all possible, yes none may play but I'd say they're all more likely than not. As others have said they are all playing dates/festivals around the time of Rock Werchter.

Obviously I know nothing about Limp Bizkits performance at RW 09 but I have seen them be brilliant on 2 different occasions and always got the crowd going. So it depends on how many options they have for slots and if they are over this certain performance.

I saw the article that Kaiser Chiefs were practically begging to play and I think if Werchter were clever they'd be a good band to book low main, in a sort of Two Door or Hives spot of last year. Not taking a high spot but a good live band playing low down the bill, look a strong and good booking that I think KC would accept.

Limp Bizkit in 2009 were great for me as well, but then again I saw them for the 1st time in my life, so can't compare to their highlight years in the early 00's.

I know Steel Panther is not your typical RW band but they are probably the most fun band I've ever seen. They have not yet been confirmed for Graspop(witch is probably a more likely destination for them if they do a Belgian festival) but I'd love to see them at RW.

[hoollsss]

Sorry for the stupid question but can you buy food at the campsite with both euros and the food tokens? If you can buy food with money, what's the point in them selling the tokens?haha

[hoollsss]

Tokens are only for inside the festival ground. Outside you use euros...

[thetime]

ok thankyou so can you use euros inside the festival ground too?
