Rock Werchter 2014

[weird science]

Warpaint - Chvrches - Haim.. Expecting these girls over there.. Need some chick rock.

[heti]

Need some REAL rock. So far January announcements were lame. Hoping for the best but expecting the worst. The Strokes, Kasabian, Interpol, Jack White...and I'd be happy.

I'm thinking about going to this festival for the first time this year, but I can't get a ticket until April. Do the tickets usually sell out? Cheers

Couple of cool bookings there

[Abo1405]

Booked my ticket this morning, this new announcement makes me much happier about the line up!

[twiggyfool]

Very happy with the new announcements, except Robert plant, I'm really not a fan

I like that announcement alot.

Robert Plant will be amazing just for the Led songs.

Just got into Haim, love their new album and Foals are just a great band. 1975 aren't too bad either.

[Last Nights Hero]

Loving the new announcement. Where are the new additions likely to play?

[TheBoz]

Good announcement!

I'd see Robert Plant if he does Led Zep stuff plus i'd see Foals and Haim too.

[guitarbhoy1888]

cracking announcement.

robert plants swayed me to going (others going permitting)

would see foals and catch haim and 1975 if nothing else was on.

anyone going this year for the first time i have to stress.

if its really warm you wont want to go to everyone you originally say.

i ended up seeing like half of my clashfinder last year because of it but then seen a few that i wouldnt normally have went too out of lazing around the arena

[guitarbhoy1888]

i have to say. i'm very confused about clashes for the thursday.

i would have expected plant to be a barn headliner. but surely they wont have metallica, damon albarn and robert plant as the three headliners ...

[markqpr2000]

Anybody having problems buying tickets on the werchter website or just me?

[MonkeyHorse]

Ooh that's a bit of a rescue, great additions to the lineup - fairly original too. Makes for a very strong but potentially clash-rich Thursday and Saturday. I think we will bow out this year and try something different, new horizons and all that. For people asking about tickets i would agree - April would be too late or cutting it very close to get tickets but you might be lucky.

Anyone going - don't miss Triggerfinger and Placebo - they're two of my favourite live bands!

[Com Truise]

At the current rate, it'll be sold out at the end of February.

[Mushy25]

Robert Plant...well, it'd be rude not to really!

Haim...bland as!

The 1975...from the one song I've heard...bland as!

Kodaline....pure gash!

Foals....didn't like first album, but like them more now as time has gone on.

Valerie June....don't know her.

Positives outweigh the negatives though, makes me happier theres a few more I do want to see.

Was actually going to ask on here would Kodaline play as they announced a gig with KoL in Dublin today. Hopefully thats the end of bad Irish bands on it (take the hint Bastille!)

Still hoping for one or two heavier type bands, Alice in Chains would have been perfect. Eagles of Death Metal would be sweet.

Think Phosphorescent is going to be in Europe at the time too, so maybe he will show up.

[Gucci Piggy]

Aw shit I wanna see Robert Plant.

[twiggyfool]

Bastille arnt irish

[Mushy25]

Bastille arnt irish

[phil5383]

Ha ha Mushy25 you are not wrong about The 1975 and Bastille (apart from the Irish bit). Kodaline = "pure gash", brilliant!

Looking forward to my first Rock Werchter. Any chance of bands like Savages, Radkey or Royal Blood?
