tomato12345 Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Get squid on the bill and have Squid, Shame, VB and IDLES (again) in the club one night. Who knows headliner wise at this point. It would be nice to see slipknot do lowlands and pukkelpop to wipe that metal festival tag off them but it is a pipe dream. So my last guess is Slipknot headlining with Courteeners subbing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But would like to see them filling a lower spot on The Main Stage (or The Marquee), like they did at Rock Werchter a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Pukkelpop booked them, they would play main stage. and there would be nobody on the field. Lokerse is the best option in possible for them (Rock Zottegem was also a strong candidate).

Floggin Molly or Pennywise had big crowds in the last years and they are not bigger than Supergrass. And, why not placing them in an early (maybe 4pm?) slot at the Marquee or a late slot in the Club (same a Johny Marr last year)?

DDave Posted March 10, 2020 Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) So a poster on festileaks has been throwing random names over the last couple of days with no other comment. One of the of the other posters who has given regular solid information is suggesting he is/could be right. The names he has mentioned are RATM, Drake, Robyn, Caribou, Bon Iver, Foals, The Teskey Brothers, Strand of Oaks, Millionaire, Soulwax, JPEGMAFIA, John Talabot Most of these you could probably guess at as they're around. Drake is obviously the most wildcard shout as he's not on tour. Would certainly be a ticket shifter in terms of him and RATM. Stick Drake up against Shame and I'd be happy.

Could be Ken just to make a point there to some non believers when the line up becomes public. No seriously, RATM would be great but I saw that band when you had to see them...back in the 90's. In all honesty, given the gap in their schedule and the fact that LL is also still waiting for a headliner, I can see it happen. I also don't think they are really that expensive.

Adding 10 euros onto the combi tickets will add some euros to the budget though. You can bet the day tickets will have extra added to them as well. Maybe it's not so far fetched after all.
