Daniel Ferreira Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 Why is it taking so long to announce from RW? It must be because I go the first time. Last year by this time I already had many names released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but the earlier headliner announcements have been at 8am. This could change of course (hopefully) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santowhir Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 Without sounding old and repetitive these headliners are so meh, someone really needs to come in and shake things up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, and I also liked 4PM better, but I don't think that was the fact for recent years. I also disliked last year's way of doing it with big batches, rather than 6-7 names every Friday. I hope they revert to the latter for this year (when they first start announcing). Edited November 22, 2019 by tmolvik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eratiti007 Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 (edited) I'm starting to wonder if they're really going to start announcing today at 4pm. They usually change their profile pic and cover on social medias a few days before. They still haven't changed anything yet.

Jazebel Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 (edited) I know a bunch of confirmed artists, but hardly anything I should be sharing here, I'm afraid.

You don’t have to mention names of course, but are there some surprises on the horizon that will make the lineup less standard? The idea of FF, PJ and RHCP bores the hell out of me... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dour has no influence on the first announcement. Next week is the spotlight on TW Classic. Monday announcement, friday start of the presale. No risk taking in the fact that some people don't buy their ticket for TWC because RW announces his headliners.

Yes, we know that bores you, isn't the first time you said this, or the third time... or the fifth... On the otherhand I'm curious about the 'less standard' names too. A name not mentioned before would be great. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This and likely Graspop, with the Hellfest announcement incomming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brightside23 Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 Are we actually looking at any announcements before January at this point? I remember they normally stop announcements around mid-December because of the holidays. And if the focus will be elsewhere for the next week or more that would leave about 2 weeks to announce headliners and the ticket sale. Seems pretty tight, given the silence so far.

PJ always drops the whole tour in one go early December. And I doubt RW would keep the ticket sale until January. My guess is a bunch of big names in short notice during the first half of December.
