Hopefully they don't clash with Linkin Park. I really hope Arcade Fire are still in the "headliner" slot on the Thursday. Seeing them in the light would just be wrong. I mentioned them as Klub C headliner possibilities a few weeks back. Not such a big surprise for me, a big dance act on the klub c stage was certainly due to come. Sadly, after the switch of the names on the poster, I think it is clear that Arcade Fire is before KoL and probably, using the same logic, LP is after SOAD... so A&B will probably clash with LP as Klub C headliners. Anyway, this is my clashfinder, I'm open to suggestions: http:///s/werchter2k17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunther Mickey Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 For the last addition : The dream : Kasabian, Biffy Clyro, Jamiroquai, The Hives, The Killers, Tool and other unlikely bands... The best (for me) : The Hives, Biffy Clyro, Belle and Sebastian, Bloc Party, Catfish and the Botlemen, Circa Waves, Highly Suspect, Wolfmother, Warpaint, Blossoms, Milky Chance and Wild Beasts. The most likely : Belle and Sebastian, Mø, Wilco, Highly Suspect, Zara Larson, Live, Don Broco, Kungs, Her, De Staat, Ryan Adams and Circa Waves.

I don't see any band big enough and suited for that stage 3rd/4th down main stage on Friday (depending on Royal Blood) I think we might still have some interesting bands left.

So he could end up in the Barnd, where Passenger is at now. * Passenger could be at Tom Odells place, making room for another big act, but I don't think that's gonna happen.

All except The Weeknd I'd be thrilled if your TBA suggestions are true. But that's because I don't think he'd go well subbing Foo Fighters but that's just my opinion. All in all - great job!

Machine Gun Kelly is to high Rag 'N Bone Man is to high, should be in a tent. Tourist Lemc is gonna get a longer set + likely to get to play the Barn/Main not the Klub C.

Tourist Lemc and Bonobo are held in high regard on the poster, it seems to me very strange, a lot of the bands considered on a lower tier are better known. I think Bonobo will sub the Klub C. Don't think the optimistic predictions would work so well at this time, but I think there is no way we get too many fillers on the last announcement, I think the next one will be at least on par with this week's, but most probably a better one.

arcuse Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Yup, indd.. I could see Tourist Lemc having an afternoon Main set. Bonobo - Above & Beyond could work yes, just like they did last year with Lost Frequencies - Paul Kalkbrenner I remember? We've been having low tier acts for weeks now, I'm still waiting for big acts.. Where are Fleet Foxes, Belle & Sebastian, Kasabian etc etc you know what Im saying? There's still a lot to add I think, and still positive for the next adds but meh.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree completely about OATW and Bazart, will change. White Lies can be in the Barn , then we have 2 main stage TBA's. To be honest, it beats me why Seasick Steve would be higher than well known bands. The first time I heard about the man was when the Main Square announcement came and I don't really like his music. MGK could possibily be on a lower Barn spot and then one of the Barn bands will be on that Klub C spot About Rag'N'Bone... he seemed to be leading the pack he was announced in... so I think either he will be on main stage like Nathaniel Rateliff or he will headline a tent. I find the main stage slot to be more likely, maybe on a lower spot though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcuse Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Well I had the same thing about JEW but looking at the site. Seasick Steve is placed higher than JEW so I'm just assuming. Seen Seasick Steve once at PKP and he was very amusing for an afternoon act :') I'm sure Rag 'N Bone Man will get a spot in the tent. With Soulwax and G-Eazy, he's not even close to Klub C head. Anyways, who are we still expecting at this point?? Fleet Foxes, Warpaint, Belle & Sebastian, Lukas Graham, Mo, Zara Larsson, Dinosaur Jr, Highly Suspect, Circa Waves, School Is Cool, Biffy Clyro, The Weeknd, Kasabian, The Killers, Van Morrison, Father John Misty, Bear's Den, Halsey, Run The Jewels, Tom Odell, Live, A Tribe Called Quest, De Staat, Wilco etc..?

nickybu Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) Pretty decent announcement earlier on today. Not sure if this is the best place to ask (probably not haha), but does anyone here usually smoke up at RW? Coming from abroad and wondering from where we'd be able to buy. Never had problems at Reading & Leeds, but not sure about RW. Cheers EDIT: spelling Edited March 10, 2017 by nickybu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWerchterJuggernaut Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) I have to say I have been totally celebrating the announcement.... I think it was fantastic despite any big name. CTE and SS is big win in my opinion. Next week is the last chance for a big act but..... I am going to have great time regardless whether it is announced or not. :-) Edited March 11, 2017 by TheWerchterJuggernaut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the problem with something being too top heavy and too much filler below that they are bound to clash quite a bit and then when you thought I can see all those....it ends up not being the case.

NomadicMan Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 I can't believe how much you lot are moaning about this line up. I think it's by far the best line up of any European festival this year. If I was to one festival pick based on line up it'd be RW without a doubt.....however....Lisbon got a beach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eratiti007 Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 I think it's one of the best line up of recent years and I'm going to the festival since 2009 which was an awesome year. Anyway, at every announcement there is at least one or two name I want to see and I'm discovering the ones I don't know. Until now, it's really good stuff in general.
