@foolee are foos back in the picture? I thought they were ruled out.

Pinkpop organiser has stated they aren't fulfilling there 2015 commitments in 2016 but I fail to believe Foo Fighters will only tour there album for 1 year and not play dates they have cancelled. It would be most unlike them and would mean Foo's not playing a single show in Belgium on there Sonic Highways album and they have played Belgium at least once every album cycle. They're also still a SR for Glastonbury and I'm sure Neil would have put them down to a R by now if he heard they weren't coming back and if they play Glasto they'll play RW. But maybe I'm just being stubborn and can't face the fact they won't headline when I really want them too, until 4 headliners are announced they'll be staying in my predictions! 

P.s sorry if that was a bit long winded!

In other (and better) news: 

- Twenty One Pilots ruled out: US tour during Werchter

- Macklemore changed to 'unlikely: playing Belgium's biggest arena in Spring, would already be a surprise if they could sell that out, let alone combine with a high Main Stage slot 3 months later

This is the thing, he hasn't put them up as anything gor Pinkpop obviously but since then, info direct from the fest, he has also chosen to continue with info he had not that long ago putting them there. I agree with lightning as well that while Werchter are lucky to only be the week after, Glasto can also be lucky with things like this also being the week before. I think it could just come down to tbey aren't free then and given their touring last year, they don't have incentive either between Pinkpop and Glasto as they toured to fuck already. I can see it being a mini trip like UK big shows were.

Hello,

I'm considering going there and I might go alone. I did Sziget the last two years and am fully aware that Werchter is mostly about the music. I'd like to go because I'm frustrated that many bands will only tour Europe in june (I wanted to see Muse last year so badly!). Do you think Sigur Ros/M83/The XX are likely to come?

RW doesnt seem to mind booking the same acts so I think that everyone who ever played there,  especially lately ( those acts you mentioned played there in 2012 or 2013) is an option,  so if they'll have a new album and be around there is a good chance they'll play.

Thanks! M83 and The XX will definitely have an album out. For the first, I've got in contact with their agent by mail and he confirmed to me that M83 will be touring next year.

It appears pearl jam will be touring the east coast in April, Europe in late June, then west coast States August. I would think that would make them pretty likely for RW again, which makes me very happy 

I can't see it happening but It would be awesome if its true!

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
