Fake as fuck.

the same info that festileaks has has also come our way (direct from source, not via them).

There's reasons to think it's genuine, but the pics also look too staged to make me 100% comfortable about it. I've been seeing this stuff - often faked - for long enough to have my suspicions raised by particularly things.

It's 100% fake. i don't know how Festileaks can post that after 2015 bad predictions in Werchter and Pukkelpop. Definetely, they post everything they receive. No filter. No reliability. That page was, is and will be a joke,

To be fair, it's not in the same category as their Blur leak. The whole article is about proving why this is a fake, as some sort of thought experiment.

Festileaks has some good sources concerning Dutch festivals (since they are a Dutch website), but we shouldn't take it too serious concerning Werchter/Pukkelpop.

They are sending this everywhere. Want to fool as many people as possible with their effort.

There is no reason to print a Line-Up this early with so many bands on it. It will take up until January for Rock Werchter to have this many bands confirmed officially.

Not even mentioning several major misplacings on the poster and bands which are not available that weekend.

And also way too many headliners. Rammstein, Coldplay, Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers seems like a reasonable 4 headliners, but how the hell are Radiohead and Gorillaz going to fit in there? And Editors and Biffy Clyro? this is madness.

they quite often have 6 headliners. 2 coheadliner pairings and 2 outright headliners though they are too strong if the list were true . Gorillaz I think woukd be the barn and biffy clyro isn't even a sub in Belgium

By far the cheapest option I found was flying from Manchester to Brussels Charleroi and getting trains. 45 quid return and the trains are free. I know thats miles from Glasgow but you might be able to save yourself a hundred quid if you could find an affordable way to make the journey down.

Didn't know you could fly to Brussels from Edinburgh, might be the easiest way. 

 

Pretty sure you can't get there from Glasgow was having a look for Groezrock aswell and decided to just go there via a couple days in Amsterdam instead :lol:

Why are the trains free?

all train travel throughout Belgium is included with your ticket. At least it was when I went las

It was free again this year, as are the shuttle buses from Leuven.  It's just so well organised.

Oh amazing! I'm supposed to arrive in Brussels the thursday at 11... I will miss the wednesday camping and party but I found an unmissable opportunity (a 90$ one-way from Beirut). Do you think I'll still be able to find a decent camping spot and not miss much of the first day?

 

Thank you :)

    • A mixed first day for us. First of all, we were honestly quite shocked that there was no security check at all at the VIP entrance around 7:30 PM. No bag check, nothing. I’ve attended Primavera many times over the years and this felt surprisingly lax for an event of this size. Did anyone else experience the same?   Another disappointment was the communication regarding the weather situation. Primavera has some of the best sound systems and speaker setups in the festival world, yet somehow they were not able to make a single clear announcement explaining what was happening. Instead, people were expected to read tiny messages on screens in Mordor while thousands were left wondering what was going on. A simple and direct audio announcement would have gone a long way.   On a lighter note, this guy absolutely made my day. Sitting right in front of the Estrella Damm terrace, wearing nothing but a long-sleeve shirt, jeans and a pair of Converse All Stars, he remained completely unbothered by the rain. While everyone else was looking for shelter, he sat there wearing sunglasses, calmly watching the crowd as if he was watching a movie.   Absolute main character energy!
    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today. 
    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
