Pharrell is going to be a dance act and not a real headliner

not sure about that.

That wasn't my point, I was referring to the fake lineup depth. Anyway I hope you're right but Im not 100% sure . I wish they inform us with how much tickets already sold so we know what to expect.

[Dannie Brincat]

Echosmith,The Prodigy, The Vaccines are big possibilities in my opinion...

[foolee]

The Hives announced for Calling festival in London on the 4th July, think we can expect them somewhere on the lineup

And even more important, Ryan Adams!

[e2p2]

I also see an option that Robert Plant will repeat too. He's doing Boonaroo in mid June but he's in the Uk at the 10th of July.

[ParanoidTourist]

That would be lovely. He was awesome last year=)

The Libertines: "Also, we've announced T in the Park and the 3Arena in Dublin for the Libertines in as many days. Might be time for another announcement soon though, eh..."

Announced for RW soon then?

[e2p2]

Modest Mouse announced for Tinderbox (along with the Prodigy, same weekend). they were placed as mainstage openers in 2013 before cancelling their European tour. Fingers crossed!

I'd love this next wave:

Modest Mouse, Metronomy, Future Islands, Jon Hopkins, Amatorski, The Slow Show, Alice Boman

Metronomy already at Les Ardentes so they're excluded.

Slash is playing at Graspop so he's not playing at RW.

It looks like Kasabian will sub and the Script will play 3rd down. I think its a little weak by RW standards but both of them played 4th down in the last time they played and both are mainstage acts.

Muse / Kasabian / Ben Harper is anything but weak, I'm really looking forward to it

And I really hope Ben Harper won't headline the Barn during Muse....

Right now it looks like Ben Harper will play in the tent. By writing 'weak' I meant weak for RW standards. Last time Kasabian played at 18:15, fourth from the top (or actually fifth if you count the dance act that closed the day.

[branvan]

The Script > Kasabian > Muse on main Stage is anything but weak.. it's got a little bit of everything in it. and Kasabian are one of the best live acts around. i don't really like their records, but live they are a bomb. Ben Harper could play before The Script in the afternoon on main stage or late in the tents, both seems possible... my guess is he will play in the barn.

Prodigy just announced for new festival in Denmark this summer... hope that they will come to Rock Werchter - I can see that others think thats is very possible.

[Gossard]

The Script - Kasabian - Muse is VERY weak for RW standards. Kasabian is a horrible live band(seen them 4 times) and I couldn't name one song by the Script. Add a sub between Kasabian and Muse and it's more like a RW day....

It's incredibly weak for werchter.

[Gucci Piggy]

Coldplay.

According to a poster on a Libertines forum, they will play these dates this summer:

A Perfect Day/Alpha Romeo City Sound in Milan

T in the Park

Ibiza Rocks

Low Festival in Benidorm

Leeds on the Friday

Rock en Seine on the Saturday

Reading on the Sunday

This was posted 26th January. 29th January the Libertines was announced as T in the Park headliners. Today they announced a gig in Milan 4th July. Looks like it's legit. Also this poster got it all right about their 2014 tour apparently, before it was official.

Are they more or less likely for Rock Werchter now?

I wouldn't mind if the Libertines stayed away from RW...

[thetime]

Coldplay.

I've been saying this for a couple of months, waiting for the Glastonbury announcement to announce a festival tour.

There is no way Rock Werchter (and possible other festivals) will be waiting until the Glasto announcement.

Anyway, they're a strong rumour for Werchter Boutique.

I know they're in the studio doing new stuff at the minute. Would be good, never seen them live and Spanish Sahara would be great just as the sun's going down
