Some stuff the Twitter account said earlier today, in Dutch:

- They're still working on the time table, don't know yet when it'll be done.

- It's taking time cause they're trying to avoid major clashes.

So my guess is that they're actually still trying to move bands to different stages (i.e. in the PJ - Pixies clash), which would explain why it's taking so long (re-negotiating with some acts) and why we don't even have stage splits yet.

Thanx for the translation mate, you're way better then Google Translate ;)

I think there's no way to avoid PJ - Pixeis clash because of PJ long show unless Pixies play third on Main and Triggerfinger agree to play infront of half-full Barn. that's so stupid to put PJ/Black Keys/Pixies/Triggerfinger (and some would say Biffy..) in the same night when theres just AM and Eels to represent "Rock" on friday.

I remember that last year they moved Volbeat from Thursday to Saturday. Does anyone remember roughly when? I mean, is there still a possibility to move one of the bands?

Yeah, moving Pixies to Main right before Black Keys was my thought as well. I'd personally go for putting Imagine Dragons as Barn headliner rather than Triggerfinger, think that such a clash would cause less moaning among rock fans. It might be Pixies being stubborn though, as going from Barn headliner to third down on Main would mean going down on the line up.

They moved Volbeat around the time when The National/Nick Cave were announced. You can't pull a stunt involving the replacement of major names when all tickets are sold out (Friday is sold out too, I've read on Twitter).

I wouldn't mind the barn shutting early so having the black keys clash with Pixies, therefore keeping pixies barn headliner position happy and then just having the headliner of Klub C that night on while PJ play leaving everyone else to watch PJ :D

@Last Nights Hero

I don't see Chase and Status anywhere but on main after KOL as that is the slot they did last time they played so think you will be in luck there.

Completely agree with you on the black keys co headling with the monkeys and having pixies sub Pearl jam. That would have been a brilliant and much better move, unless they can somehow get around the clash.

I'm hoping for Chase & Status on main after KOL.

I say stick Triggerfinger as Barn headliner on PJ day, from what I've gathered in reading about them they are quite big in Belgium and I doubt they'd be happy getting pushed down main to accommodate clashes while Imagine Dragons headline Barn.

Really the best thing RW could do is have booked The Black Keys to sub or co-headline with Arctics to begin with and have Pixies sub Pearl Jam (I get the whole "not big enough" argument but I imagine most PJ fans would be ecstatic to have Pixies leading into them).

    • The Great Fete Festival (Sunday Only) Ocean Colour Scene day on Tickets For Good.
    • I was also at Ghost but seated. When they scanned my ticket's and they came up as seated they printed a small ticket with the seat number info.
    • I was standing for Ghost at O2 London last year where they put the phone in a pouch beforehand so I assume they're is a mechanism in place for people in seats. 
    • Most likely not, keeping an eye on Tixel and Twickets might be the best option.
