[Matt42]

Still no saturday headliner...

[pship7]

Nice additions. Even better knowing that we're still due the Sat night headliner.

Some pretty decent sized bands/acts for lower down the order. Are Kasabian simple not as popular abroad as they are in the UK - only a year ago when they were big enough to headline our main festival?

[guitarbhoy1888]

they've never been huge outwith UK.

only really benicassim they get big spots

only a plus for us i guess

[e2p2]

I wonder why did they make the announcement in two parts. What position do you think they'll play? Kasabian third down and Noel too? Or maybe after Glastonbury Kasabian can sub?

[Saeglopur]

[Gossard]

Faith no More and A Day to Remember are doing GMM so won't play RW...

I also think The Prodigy will play...

[Red Day]

They were so horrible last summer, hope they stay away!

I was looking forward to seeing them at Glasto last year and ended up being really disappointed with their performance

[e2p2]

the Gaslight Anthem played for an half empty Barn in 2013, they surely cant sub the foo's, but as long as Jose Gonzalez, Modest Mouse, the Decemberists, TTMOE and the National are all in, I dont mind that

I dont think the National will tour this year, at least not in Europe.

[alexLyman]

Do you think Biffy Clyro could pay Werchter a visit for the 3rd time in a row?

[alexLyman]

Does it rule out Werchter because they also are playing GMM??

[Gossard]

98% yes...

[#FreeComTruise]

Do you think Biffy Clyro could pay Werchter a visit for the 3rd time in a row?

Unlikely there'll be any summer shows this year as they're recording the new album, plus Mike Vennart is doing solo stuff and he'll probably tour with Gambler, and I doubt Biffy will play live without the two of them.

[KarmicChris]

Yeah Biffy said they were having a quiet one this year. Disappointing!

[alexLyman]

damn regarding Biffy Clyro - would be nice. I hope that prodigy will join the festival and I miss a few bigger names...

[weird science]

I'd like to take The Vaccines. Hope they'll announce.

[Red Day]

I'd like to take The Vaccines. Hope they'll announce.

Touring UK in March/ April so there probably certainties to do festival circuit. Good chance they'll be at RW. I would think RW and Glasto will have a fair cross over of acts being the same weekend

With Glasto the same weekend does that rule out a lot of people who play Glasto? Not really sure how it works with festival crossovers?

Would potentially rule people in more than anything, although don't expect many from the jazz world stage.

Do they still have that stage?

[jackjd]

I know that you buy vouchers for food and drink at the festival but does anybody know the average prices of food and drink at the festival? trying to see how much money I would need.

Think it was 1 token for a (small) drink, and 2-4 tokens for food depending on what you get. Basic burgers were 2 or 3. Tokens were €2.50 each.

I'd probably recommend not bothering with tokens and just buying from the stalls that are right outside the arena, mostly that bit cheaper and you don't have to faff with food tokens.

[Dietediet]

Pinkpop just announced Pharrell, and he's merely subbing main stage there. Even more convinced now that he'll be the smaller coheadliner or the closing party act at RW.

[Saeglopur]

The Prodigy announced tour dates for Germany, France and Netherlands. No stop in Belgium could mean Werchter, right?

Nailed on you would imagine, especially as they are playing fests early summer.
