Not sure if RHCP add that many dates to their summer tour. Especially so far apart from each other. And there are rumors for Sziget and R/L.

Making new music seems to be priority. With Frusciante being back, they have to start over their work on the new album.

Nah I'm starting to think they won't play either but I'm holding out hope, although I'm cynical enough to think we'll be getting oscar & the wolf, editors and kings of leon (who really are as shit live as people say they are and I'm a fan).

All names have been dropped at 4pm Werchter time for this year's festival, apart from the initial Pearl Jam announcement, which was earlier but in line with Pearl Jam's own announcements. I'm hopeful, but every day I wake up and say 'today is the day'.

 The best source possible (Jazebel) has said there won't be any new names this week, so you should have some patience till next week.

Jazebel explicitely said that a lot would be happening for RW after this week.

I'm just expecting bigger Friday batches than usual and/or a long string of announcements starting mid next week.

I honestly don't want them to do bigger batches, but rather release 6/7 names EVERY friday (not like last year..). Keeps the suspence going :)

Has anyone else got a worrying feeling now that we've had a problem/dropout and have had to had sort stuff last minute

The Strokes announced for Primavera. I hope they just had to wait for them?

And there are still so many open headline spots on other festivals close to Werchter (2 at Mad Cool, quiet some more at Roskilde, Open'er also need some headliner, DTRH misses one also ...), so, I wouldn't worry too much, yet!

Must be in with a very good chance of being at RW, surely? 

 

I don't think so. They are not popular enough anymore to play Main Stage. They played Lokerse Feesten last year when they released a new album, so really don't think they will play Werchter this year then. 

I expect BICEP and Flume to be two of the dance names this year.

Someone on Festileaks says their attendance in 2015 was so low that RW is no longer willing to give in to their financial/poster demands. Given the good relationship between RW and CB, that must really mean something.
