Daniel Ferreira Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Here in Portugal they are doing the same refund method. I didn't understand it, but I can already understand that if it weren't for this very festival, they would die next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maesydderwen Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 The thing is we are not talking about a little independent venue or festival here, who I would be willing to help out if I could. We're talking about LiveNation/Ticketmaster an enormous multi national. We're also not talking about a £50 ticket. We are talking of large sums of money (especially when you add food/drinks vouchers) which maybe someone bought last year before COVID and have consequently been made redundant. Those people probably have more need of the money in the short term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm indifferent about Pearl Jam (they're good, but seen them a lot) and Red Hot Chili Peppers are godawful. Gorillaz are nice, but not a good replacement for Kendrick at all. Only The Strokes are a reason to keep my tickets (considering they'll announce them later). How big are the odds of Kendrick and SOAD returning next year? Think the odds of Kendrick and SOAD returning next year are close to zero unfortunately. Really hoping The Strokes are announced sooner rather than later though as they’re the decider for whether I keep my ticket for next year or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(How sad it is to consider that year as ‘next year’, I’m done with 2020) I think SOAD and Kenny are pretty nailed on for that year aren’t they? Because that would be interesting for the voucher thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those people probably have more need of the money in the short term. In Belgium, Live Nation and RW are sort of a godfather. Yes, they don’t need the money. But they help the festivals, venues who are needing it. It aren’t easy times for Pukkelpop, Cactus... and all the freelancers, partners... They act really independent from the American bosses. Yes, normally are RW and Live Nation Belgium a money machine. But without their help some festivals have to stop and partners/freelancers going broke. But I understand your opinion, and can not say that you are wrong. Edited September 15, 2020 by Ken19 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reality is there are no winners in this situation even multi nationals need money to keep employees and they help support a network of others. Let's just hope there is a festival season next year. We could all do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When big bands like Pearl Jam are announcing a tour for next year, that means that they have serious indications it will be allright. Planning a tour costs a lot of money. They don’t start that with serious guarantees. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judithmt Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 @Ken19 can you shine a light on this article: https://newsmonkey.be/tickets-rock-werchter-graspop-2020-geldig-in-2021-2022/?utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=socialmedia&utm_medium=social&utm_content=PostContent It states that if you don't want to go to RW 2021 or 2022 you can ask for a refund, but you'll probably have to wait until after 2022 to be refunded. Is this a general refund option, without the conditions stated like getting married? Or is this the option mentioned in the mail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if that's stil 2020 info though It probably is, since it is fed by bandsintown. We also saw bandsintown schedules for other unconfirmed RW artists, so it's probably the 2020 event rescheduled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, this kind of info makes me think we might really have the vaccin before June 2021...! so many artists might announce something before end of September.

And if artists have a feed from bandsintown on their own website (like Kendrick) it will now show the 2021 date. Although, that's what I make of it.

Also confirmed by Woo Hah. Werchter anticipated and with Gorillaz they have a decent other headliner that day. To be honest, with the latest info that I have, I don’t know where he will fit in... It seems that he will play the same dates as last year. And TOP - Gorillaz - Kendrick is too strong en very expensive. But I want to be surprised too.

lighthouse Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 I'm over the moon with the Kendrick-coming-back-after-all news. Gorillaz - Kendrick would be a terrific combo. Or The Strokes into Kendrick. That would melt my face off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this maybe the "Push" Rock Werchter needed to make it a 5-day (4.5) festival with the wednesday being a half-day experience like P!NK in 2019?
