Rock Werchter 2015

[Tremousse]

St Paul are so cool ! But I would prefer them on Saturday, we've got too many good bands on Thursday.. Who are Magnus and the other one ?.. Still hoping for Frank Turner.

[micvet]

Magnus is the DJ/dance project of Tom Barman (singer of dEUS) and CJ Bolland. They had a single last year with vocals of Tom Smith.

@Gossard, somewhere in the Planet, Nicki Minaj is looking for you. Hopefully she's not in Iceland

I'd love if she'd come to Iceland. We have a #FreeTheNipple thing going on(seriously, check it out on twitter, Icelandic girls are going mad) ....Nicki could participate in that

Even Soley did it ... Waiting for the trend to come to Germany tbh

[markmoo75]

Are we expecting just one more announcements of bands so 5_6 more names?

[Dietediet]

I'd guess so. 80 is the most we've ever had, we're at 75 now. So 4 or 5 names + possibly stage splits on Friday, everything rounded up before the start of Easter holidays.

Yes 20 bands each day ! So still 5 !

[TheSilence]

Gutted combi tickets have sold out. Just waited too long unfortunately. Ah well.

[heti]

Sunday tix all sold out as well. Leaves us with friday only available. Too bad there's no room for line-up improvement that day.

[Freckles]

What's the chances of getting 2 combi tickets with camping on the waiting list ? Newbie and no clue how it works

We didn't get the timetable until May 14th last year.....

[Dietediet]

But the years before we got it along with the last names, or at least the stage splits if exact hours weren't available yet.

They revealed in the documentary that last year the timetable was delayed because of hard negotiations with the KoL management, in order to get Stromae on Main Stage after all. And there was also that PJ - Pixies deal.

Ahh, ok. I must say that the PJ-Pixies thing came out the worst possible way! Just to see Pixies, I drove about 1500km here in Iceland last summer, as I knew I would miss them at RW, no way was I gonna skip PJ

I agree it came out the worst possible way. I did that too but unlike your case, they performed much closer

[Dietediet]

It's an episode of Belpop, a series of documentaries about Belgian bands. This one is focused around the history of RW. You can find it here (unfortunately without subtitles): http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2805u7_belpop-rock-werchter_shortfilms

You made the right choice though as that PJ set was imo, the best set they performed setlist wise in the euro tour! They were awesome (even though they were late!). That 15/20 of Jeremy - State of Love & Trust - Black - Daughter - Porch was jus fantastic! I was dead afterwards

And the final Rockin'in the free world (with Midlake)/Angie/Yellow Ledbetter/Little Wing with EPIC Mike McCready solos !!! Best night ever at a festival. On grooveshark.com you can find their whole set track by track.

My bootleg sounds better and with the right order of the songs running I think that some of them are missing too.

Thanx. I can't watch it indeed. Maybe some day I'll learn Dutch (its Dutch, right???)

They were very good at RW but I also saw them in Stockholm the weekend before and that's probably the best show I've ever been to. I've seen PJ 6 times and the Stockholm show was without a doubt the best one....

[Tremousse]

I've heard from the other PJ fans of Paris that Leeds and Stockholm were the two best shows last year.

That finale was excellent indeed! Midlake definitely brought something extra to RITFW!

Or you could pay and download the set from Pearl Jam's website you know... just sayin'

Good to hear that your favourite show was on that tour though! It was my first and only time (yet) at Werchter but I know I'll be seeing them again next time round for sure!

I did hear Leeds was incredible as they took advantage of the late curfew at Leeds arena and had a seriously extended show! It sounded incredible!
