What bad experience did Graspop have with Motley Crue?

Bob Schoenmaekers, the man who is coordinating the program of Graspop, said in multiple interviews that one of his dreams was booking Motley Crue. In 2009 it happened, but they were not professional (Vince Neill arrived drunk), really crashed the backstage (old school), had problems with Graspop crew... and their show was not that good. 

Never again he said.

Think they will play Groez

They play Brussels on April 16th. Impossible to play Groezrock after and got the information the festival won't be happening again in 2020.

I think PWD will make a break after the shows in April and won't come back in Europe before they finish the new album. Reverence In 2018, Ire in 2015, Atlas in 2012... new one in 2021 I guess. Early May, after their short run in Europe, Reverence will be 2 years old. Enough to focus on a 7th album. They made festivals in June 2018, June 2019, August 2019, that's enough.

Why not Rammstein as a headliner? When you view the tour dates, you see that all performances up to and including the performance in Ostend are sold out on 10 June. Afterwards they have 3 performances in UK (14, 17 and 20/6) and on June 24 they play in Nijmegen. So it is possible on Friday 19/6 or Sunday 21/6, on condition that they leave their tower and the main part of their equipement ... The performance in Ostend is not organized by Live Nation, but by Greenhouse Talent.

They don't seem to play ANY festivals next year, but I expect them for 2021.

Volbeat just got announced for Download, so chance of playing Graspop?

It's 50/50 (even before the Download announcement). Rumors send them to Werchter as they've a huge success in Belgium. If not at RW, they'll be back - again - at GMM.

No Volbeat for Graspop normally. I’ve expected them there but their agent wants to do something else next summer.

Something else. Like a Volbeat headlining open air show? Or maybe a Knotfest with Volbeat on it? :)

My bet is Lokerse Feesten.

It wouldn't make any sense. The capacity of the festival (15k) is smaller than the SportPaleis where they played a few days ago (20k). In Belgium, they've the size to headline Graspop, co-headline Werchter, headline Pukkelpop. Not smaller festivals like Alcatraz or Lokerse Feesten.

Was surprised to see Metallica announced to a festival in May, does that relaunch any rumor of them being around in EU next summer, and would that included Graspop or RW ? I'd love to see them !

Are you speaking about the festival in USA? The band announced it already a few weeks ago. They gonna play 2 shows at 5 festivals during the Summer. Those festivals are from May to September. Each show will have a different set-list. I'd really surprised if Metallica come in Europe this Summer. Chance are 0.1% in my opinion.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
