Dietediet Posted January 9, 2017 Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 I figure we can rule out The Lumineers. Supporting U2 in New Jersey on 28 June, playing Bravalla (Finland) on the 29th and Roskilde on the 1st of July. Then going to Switzerland on 3 July. That's already a murderous touring schedule without RW in the mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gossard Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 The Killers announced for Tinderbox in Denmark the weekend before RW. I'd like to have them, they were quite good in 2009.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When another festival in Belgium announce an international act before RW does, it means that this act won't play in RW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOAD Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 Been thinking about doing rock werchter for years now. Think will have to make this year a reality. I think this would be a pretty cool lineup: Thursday The Weeknd, Arcade Fire, Kings of Leon, Imagine Dragons, Foals, Enter Shikari, The Naked and Famous Prophets of Rage Friday Radiohead, Kasabian, The National, Phoenix, Royal Blood, Flogging Molly, Anderson Paak & the Free Radicals Die Antwoord Saturday Linkin Park, System of a Down, Blink 182, Frank Ocean, The Hives, Jimmy Eat World, Slaves Elbow Sunday Foo Fighters, Pixies, Franz Ferdinand, Biffy Clyro, Gogol Bordello, The Kills, Blood Red Shoes Alt J Thoughts?

I would buy tickets quicker than I can say "This is way too good to be true"... How can a single festival afford to have such fantastic bands, when places like Reading and Leeds cost about the same but only have a small percentage of great acts like these?

neacaisa Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Rock werchter won best major festival at european festival awards. Good change after all the eastern european festivals winning in the last years(I have nothing against opener and and exit, but untold winning last year's award on its debut was too much). The procedure was changed and the jury counted as 3/4 of the ranking points and the votes counted for 1/4 (last year it was the other way around) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no interest in this whatsapp group, I don't even know what it is. But please don't use the word gay as it's something bad, it's insulting. If not liking it when people downgrade certain group of our society and asking them to stop it is being on a "moral high horse" then so be it.......
