Could see them more likely for RW. Was literally just about to ask that! I guess with them announcing a Belgian date for October it may be unlikely?

Circa Waves, Wolf Alice, Foster The People and Warpaint are possibilities for tomorrow. Biffy Clyro is the only band I don't know what to think about.

visdave34 Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) Spoon will have to play 4 days straight if they are confirmed for Werchter, so not that likely anymore if you ask me. Not impossible though to go from London to Werchter to Arras to Cologne... Weezer is highly unlikely, now they've announced a show in Belgium in October. My guess for the remaining acts: The Lemon Twigs - Warpaint - Father John Misty - Biffy Clyro - A Tribe Called Quest - Kasabian - Foster the People - Mo and three or four smaller names I have no clue of... Angel Olsen hopefully. Don Broco definitely possible. This is quite a positive scenario by the way, but one's gotta have hope... Edit: forgot Fleet Foxes, they still have a chance as well. Possibly instead of Foster The People. Or Kasabian... Edited March 16, 2017 by visdave34 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And International Main Square non-ruled out acts are nearly certain, so yes, Biffy, Highly Suspect, Lemon Twigs...are highly likely ! Kasabian would be a super surprise !

Antbot89 Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Weezer do have a pretty big gap in their touring schedule Jun 25 - California - Arroyo Seco Weekend. Jul 14 - Kentucky - Forecastl Festival But perhaps with an album release at the end of summer and the fact both giis are in America, they might use it for Studio time rather than brigning everything over to Europe for 1 show (Can't imagine that'll be profitable for a 1 off) I'm going to ignore all that reasoning though and wave my weezer flag in the hope they see it and come to RW!

But why not. the best : The Hives, Kasabian, Mo, Highly Suspect, Circa Waves, Spoon (unlikely), Foster the People, Warpaint, Kensington, Miles Kane (very unlikely), swmrs and Ghost Poet (very unlikely).

micvet Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 14 hours ago, Apocalyptica said: Little off topic. But where should I stay for 3 nights before concert. Brussels or bruges? Any help appreciated. Bruges is just an open air museum with expensive food and drinks. You will get bored after 1 day. Antwerp is never mentioned here. Strange. If I can choose between Brussels, Bruges and Leuven I choose Antwerp Biggest Flemisch City, great museums, great concerts and gigs (Trix, lotto Arena, Sportpaleis, the beautifull open air theater Rivierenhof, Kafka, Stadsschouwburg,...), restaurants, pubs,...

Skankhunt42 Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 All those in the know on the subject of where to stay beforehand I will be arriving in Belgium no the Sunday afternoon, initial plan was 1 night in Oostende and then 2 in Bruges, I want to chill wander round, have a couple of beers and some nice food, nothing to energetic, with that in mind can anyone suggest where I should stay. I want to see some cool shit basically but not be bored,, I have been told Bruges is amazing but maybe not as per the comments above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great choice of eateries and a fair few bars, There is a good brewery tour but, in general its quite quiet and you can cover most of it in a day. That would be my assessment of Bruges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful place to walk around in for a day and the brewery (De Halve Maan) is definitely worth a visit. Go to Ghent (or Antwerp) for the next two days, would be my advice.

Skip Ostend, for sure in summer Do Ghent / Antwerp. Antwerp rail station is already worth seeing. I was a few times in Bruges, the food and drinks are expensive. It's touristic rubbish I only go there for work, not for pleasure. Better go to a real city imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gossard Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Someone really funny keeps giving me - rep for my posts. I used to have 115 but now I have 89. But it's not the newest posts that get -rep but the old ones witch is strange. I just wanted to tell the person(s) who's doing this, you're extremely funny, I'm dying with laughter. ...but I can also tell you that when the day comes I start doing meaningless crap like this, that's the day I go and see psychologist as I obviously have no live what so ever and in desperate need of a professional help....!

Keep searching for hotels and B&B because People always canceling reservations and check airbnb frequently too. Shuttles between Leuven and the festival site are free. One train ride free the day you arrive and one for the day you leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
