RarerThanDandyB Posted June 10, 2019 Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 Have our 2019 line-up, so why not start the 2020 thread? Thursday: Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds / The Strokes Friday: Rammstein Saturday: Tame Impala Sunday: Green Day Nick Cave has gone up the line-up and with a new album pending I reckon he will headline like he will do Glastonbury. If not on his own, I reckon he could do it with The Strokes since they have an album pending also. Also, with Rammstein releasing a new album, Werchter like booking them and I can see them headlining 2020. Tame Impala are big enough now and can see them headlining , especially as they also have a new album and aren't playing this year. Green Day are the biggest question but I reckon they'll be back and will be there if they are back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThijsDB Posted June 10, 2019 Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 Nick Cave played last year so I don't expect him back this soon. But I agree on Rammstein and Tame Impala, they should be pinned down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDave Posted June 10, 2019 Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 Coldplay should be back next year so I'd throw them into the mix, although they can sell out most venues unaided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yelo, the Parmiggiana Posted June 10, 2019 Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 Rammstein Tame impala / The National Metallica Black Keys / *Pop-ish Act* IMO, That is a best case scenario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess will be something like this: Rammstein Tame Impala / Black Keys Red Hot Chili Peppers or Kings of Leon Queen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you're talking about the Freddie tribute show May and Taylor are touring with. Alright, Queen ft. Adam Lambert are able to headline Rock Werchter in my opinion. If Twenty One Pilots are still touring next year, they could play the (sub)headliner-spot too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't there a post in the 2019 forum about acts that cancelled this year and would instead do 2020? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polnico Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 (edited) I'd surely throw Liam G, Vampire Weekend and Foals in the mix too, and yeah of course Editors or KOL are probably nailed on already haha ! Also what about Paul McCartney ? If he does Glasto, he'll be around... Edited June 11, 2019 by polnico Paul McCartney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitchieG Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 I’d like to see the “HIGHLY SUSPECT”. Can you imagine them playing “MY NAME IS HUMAN” in the Barn... Unreal!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RW is not waiting on them anymore. In Belgium we say: de kaarten liggen goed. There are some really big bands in the mix. But everything can still change off course, it usually does. I already mentioned some smaller bands, don't forget about them. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polnico Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 Maybe that "the new normal" set by Primavera will change how the festival looks ? Because so far, no females in any of our propositions, and I am guessing that they will be female headliners in the mix ! Even if she's not headliner sized, I am really hoping for Courtney Barnett too ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judithmt Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 Based on Ken's remarks I am counting on Tame Impala: ' RW had the option to book them. But in their feeling it was better to wait until 2020.' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank fuck for that, I'm a fan of KOL but they're a bore live and as a Brit I can see editors at my student union for a few quid so them headlining Werchter just doesn't feel right.

Death By Sexy Posted June 12, 2019 Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) Apparently Eddie Vedder said at the solo concert last weekend in The Netherlands that he will be back next year. Not sure if he means solo or with PJ. Edited June 12, 2019 by Death By Sexy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken19 Posted June 12, 2019 Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) Last year: David Byrne played a lot of festivals. Even some small ones like gent jazz. But his non festivalshows were very expensive. There is a serious differente in fee between an indoor show and a festival. Elton John is a serious contender to play BST next year, TW Classic would also be perfect. Edited June 12, 2019 by Ken19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
