Rock Werchter 2022


JSmurphy

Recommended Posts

New name for Firenze Rocks coming on Monday 3 pm. For Friday, 17.06.2022. Could be someone we know (Nick Cave, Muse, RHCP) or a new name for summer 2022.

3 pm could be someone with a joint world tour annoucement.

What was learned in the old topic (RW 2021) here on the website would be like this:


Thursday - PJ
Friday - Metallica
Saturday: Gorillaz
Sunday: RHCP

2020: PJ - Strokes - Kendrick - SOAD

2021: Metallica - RHCP - Gorillaz - RATM

PJ were already announced for 2021, RATM could not and cannot for 2022.

It's what 2021 would have looked like without cancellation of 2020 (PJ would have played 2020 obviously). And RATM had European shows announced for August/September 2020 and planned for June/July 2021.

Muse

 

I love Muse, BUT we have a two year forced break from festivals, leading to a vast array of headliners for future editions and a positive effect (in my opinion) of not having to book the same headliners over and over again. And we possibly get the same headliner they had at the last edition of Werchter in 2019? I certainly hope not. I'd love for Muse to headline again, but make it 2023, '24 or even '25.

I'm sure what I'm saying is Muse that Firenze Rock will announce today.
But you're right, I didn't want Muse on RW.

It's already online: https://www.muse.mu/tour

But this is not really relevant for Rock Werchter, since they played last time (with RW as their only festival). (On top of that Muse didn't sell out their day in 2019)

You could be right. There is still technically a chance though since they play in France on 3rd of July 2022 and no visible dates before.

No Kendrick Lamar

Will I ever see this man live, a question I have been asking myself since I had to cancel the day I had planned at Les Ardentes 2015 3 days prior. 

 

The wait goes on...

    • Rotten communication. Actually god awful. Posting sporadically on IG, closing Mordor only to reopen and cause some serious carnage. Left the festival as it got too much for my 16year old daughter. She was devastated about Alex G and Mac…but TV girl could have saved it. Took us until 1220 and already home to find out they might/are playing. Pish.    and on another note, this festival has lost its bastard soul. Gone are the wee tents with local sellers selling vinyl, t shirts etc, now you can buy a 50 f**king eur official T-shirt. The ar*e is truely out of this event now. I went to Porto for the first time last year and it was fab. I love Barcelona and the line up is always stacked, but this festival is a corporate loss take. Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.
