P.bintein Posted November 11, 2019 Report Share Posted November 11, 2019 (edited) I thought they sell out within minutes. I remember it was not easy to have tickets. Edited November 11, 2019 by P.bintein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Focus for Bon Iver is Pukkelpop. But they want him. They want him very bad. Lana in the barn would be incredible. Norman fucking Rockwell is by far my favourite record of the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we expect RW will announce some other acts before that day or the plan is to start with PJ (since as you said they want to start with their most headliners)? Can you shed some light on this Ken? Should we expect any names before PJ are ready to announce supposedly in early December? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abracadabrik Posted November 11, 2019 Report Share Posted November 11, 2019 @Ken19 Is there any chance to have Blur this year? In 2016 there were no preconditions of their summer shows (like new album or tour), but you said they had been booked Does this mean that Organizers are close to Damon and band and are able to have them as a kind of an exclusive option?

Ken19 Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 Deftones were a possibility for RW. But GMM is a better alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except for Deftones, not one name that I will really miss from this list. Remarkable that Gojira isn't in this list as they tour together with Korn. Could it be possible that they play RW this year instead of Graspop? Also strange that either Volbeat or System of a Down are still not announced. I expected at least one of them to be announced for Graspop by now. Edited November 12, 2019 by EV123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't even manage to sell out the Sportpaleis (cap: 20K+). You need another big act like them to co-headline. Which is good news. I always forget the fact Editors are enormous in Belgium & The Netherlands. Over here, they usually play theatres, although they do have an arena run in Feb/March.

In 2015 they decided very late to do some festivals that summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RubenFrusciante Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 Red Hot Chili Peppers will play Pinkpop, safe to say they will play Rock Werchter too after this anouncement along with the anouncement from Firenze last week?

santowhir Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 I know the Damon Albarn camp more than the Rock Werchter camp and it's my understanding that we are more likely to get the Gorillaz next year than Blur. Gorillaz are still more active than Blur (they are still in the studio although I've no idea if that is to plan another album or they are just making songs at this stage), and it's actually Dave Rowntree's connections to Labour that make it more difficult to get him back in the band (it's been a busy time for him if you hadn't noticed) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brightside23 Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 So realistically we are looking at something like this: Post Malone - SOAD RCHP - The Strokes Tame Impala - Twenty One Pilots - Dua Lipa Pearl Jam - Royal Blood With Thom Yorke, MCR also very likely. Not terrible, but too many recent repeats in my opinion, if that is the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santowhir Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 Pearl Jam is really putting me off RW, it's just lazy. RHCP were shit last time they played aswell. I might be showing my age but I usually leave just before the main acts start, I prefer the day time drinking and strolling around the festival more than anything else. I know I'm contradicting myself, just the main acts don't do it for me. the Killers and Arctic Monkeys were pants in 2018 aswell. I think a good main act (on paper) pushes you to get a ticket but when the time comes, for me they are the biggest disapointment. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetime Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 Why are people so convinced that the strokes will play? From my understanding they have never played in Belgium and certainly not Werchter. So there standing in Belgium is not very high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you on this, it is probably because we are knackered by the time the headliners come on. It is one of the reasons I love Sziget so much, man stage does not stare until 4pm, saves the legs... Also no idea if you have done the festival scene for a long time, but personally speaking you get very jaded of the same old headliners year in year out. There is not many festivals who try and do it a bit differently at the minute, Glastonbury/Roskilde usually take a risk or 2 but mainly festival organisers go for the safe acts.

But I have my doubts, he was at Werchter in 2017 and 2018. He played a Sportpaleis (which wasn't completely sold-out) and PKP in the meantime. I think he is very likely, but I'm just wondering if it's not too much if they have him back in 2020? They will certainly need another strong name that day! I personally hope for a more refreshing rap headliner that hasn't played RW too much before. Travis Scott? Childish Gambino? Kendrick?
