Rock Werchter 2014

RHCP - Hamburg 11 was the best i've ever seen. Anthony isn't the best singer, but the others are such great musicians!

[Gucci Piggy]

I say this every time, but RHCP were good on their arena tour in 2011, and most opinions I've seen tend to agree.

6th July: Outkast at Wireless Festival! Rumour?

[Daniel Comino Royuela]

People still talk about the likes of Linkin Park added to this year line up...

I'm so sorry but for me it's so clear that they are not gonna be in there as all the headlinings spots are done, and yes, I know that last year were Blur and Kings of Leon on the same day, but RW have announced KOL as THE last headliners so don't expect more huge acts...

I'm more into the mood of getting something like Outkast as a sub and The Prodigy as a close act than other things... (maybe Beck)

By the way this afternoon Primavera reveal it's entire line up, will see if there's any surprise we can add to the wish list...

6th July: Outkast at Wireless Festival! Rumour?

[Daniel Comino Royuela]

iep, I haven't seen that!

now Outkast is more likely to sub Arctic on Friday night at RW!

a shame Kanye West is not possible friday or sunday, I saw him at Coachella '11 and I'll like very much to see him again...

[Saeglopur]

*Rumour for RW?

They already have gigs on saturday and sunday .. so only possible Thu/Fri here

*Rumour for RW?

[hoollsss]

Train or coach to the Belgian borders, then free from there.

[Dietediet]

Outkast is in Europe at the end of Summer as well, so they aren't ruled out for Pukkelpop either. And as I've mentioned before, they wouldn't even get a sub spot at Rock Werchter.

[karelaanzee]

Train is included in your festival ticket.

[Dietediet]

I'm not too sure about that - I think due to all the reunion hype they would be given a sub spot. Just because we wouldn't want it doesn't mean it wouldn't happen. They're as big as The Black Keys tbf

[johnybegood]

Even with the reunion hype, Black Keys are still bigger around here than Outkast.

It's also worth noting that in the past 15 years, hiphop/rap/rnb delivered exactly 0 subs and 1 headliner to the festival, despite major hiphop acts being around in that weekend. So it's safe to say they're not keen on the big spots for those genres.

[ParanoidTourist]

Sorry to hear that Outkast might not be an "Werchter act". I Think they might go down well at Werchter actually. Outkast have quite a few sing-along-anthems (Hey Ya! Ms Jackson, I love the way you move) and for ex. Black Keys don´t have that many (if you are not into them of course)

[foolee]

Don't fancy having Outkast. They may play the friday but see them more as a PKP headliner instead. Don't really want anyone from that Wireless announcement, only one I'd like is Kanye and he won't be playing.

Any idea when the next announcement will be?

[twiggyfool]

from the wireless announcement i would like to see outkast, wiz khalifa and rudimental at werchter! but i think/hope the next announcement will be the prodigy

[twiggyfool]

also have a feeling ed sheeran will be there but im not sure how big he is outside britain and ireland!

[Com Truise]

Chance the Rapper and Earl would be cool

[kingken93]

Any chance of The Hives again? Their set was brilliant last year, also any thoughts on Jack White and Biffy?

[Corn1bread0]

Anyone know the chances of Weezer?

[Gossard]

The Hives are already playing a different Belgian festival. Can see Jack White happening for sure. Biffy is a doubt, there will already be a lot of repeats this year, and Biffy hasn't accomplished anything new in the mean time.

Wouldn't count on it too much, even if they announce European dates. They're one of those few acts that seem to ignore the existence of Belgium.
