I wouldn't say that Nos has that much of a festival vibe in the first place to be worried about it being killed! Lots of people standing round chatting at all the way down to the barrier for some bands! 

It was certainly like that at main stage this year, though the tent was a lot better because people were there specifically to see the acts playing rather than standing round.  I'd think the main problem the number of fans who camp out at the front hours before the headliners come on, so even if there are rock bands on before them their audiences aren't getting anywhere close to the stage.

I know its early but I have been attending this festival on a yearly basis since 2014. This might be the first one ill skip if the undercard fails. Though to be fair all I need is Foals ?????

What are the possibilies of Tame Impala headling or co headlining? I think that Kevin is finishing the album and they may do some festivals next year to promote it.

If they can finish their new album on time, big possibility for a high spot (i can not say headliner, that will depend from the festival).

I'd prefer to see them on NOS Primavera Sound but I'll take what I can get

Can see them headlining Super Bock Super Rock.

2 years in a row coming to Spain (2018 and 2019) and not coming to Portugal (last time was back in 2016), I think 2020 will be the year.

Could Tool be a possible contender for 2020?

I thought they would return to europe in march or april but since more and more bands are already announcing their shows for june, I think it's already too late for a spring tour, so another run in the summer seems more likely to me.

Or maybe they will follow The Black Keys and just stay in the US.... ?

Taylor Swift - Billie Eilish - Tool is the most schizophrenic triple I can possibly come up with tbh

I'd stick to something more general, like a mainstream pop rock band (or something similar)

[thomas9790]

Tool will be touring Europe in April - May 2020 AFAIK. Probably won't be playing any European summer festivals.

Danny said in an interview with a French magazine March / April. So this is new info. Legit or gut feeling?

[thomas9790]

Oops, I did mean March - April 2020. Sorry for the confusion. All I know for sure is that they're playing Ziggo Dome (again) after Bon Iver plays there in April.

Thanks!

Ken, any truth to The Black Keys scraping their EU plans completely?

I'll be disappointed if they have, although I have heard that rumour. Shame, 2020 would have been a good year to have them.

Where‘d you hear it? There‘s an interview with Dan out there about not touring outside North America and word they scraped plans for EU festivals.

But there were also rumors about them booking venues for spring.

It was an interview with Dan where he says that if anyone from Europe wants to see them play on this current tour then they'd need to get a flight to Denver!

Yeah I quoted that in the Werchter thread. The only source of them not coming to Europe atm. And contrary to rumors on here...

[Andrej]

I also heard The Black Keys will not be in Europe until 2021, from a promoter in Italy.

[Karlos12345]

Well. I wouldn‘t put my money on 2021 either. If they skip 2020 with a new album out what would make them to come over 2021?

Looks like I never get to see them. (Had tickets 2015).

[Ken19]

I don’t know the current status. But the black keys tour was almost finalised a couple weeks ago.

but also, not the first time a band cancelled their tour plans on the last moment before announcement. Normally their was a Kanye west Europe tour in 2017 and 18. Sportpaleis in Belgium was Two times booked.
