Florence + The Machine and QOTSA for MadCool

Much, much more names for Mad Cool actually. 

Animal Collective (!!!), HAIM, Chvrches, Sam Fender, Four Tet, Arlo Parks, Glass Animals, Flume, Villagers, Yves Tumor,... Those names are much more interesting for RW actually than the ones you mentioned.

Mad Cool has a day with Muse , Queen of the stone age and Faith no More , hopefully at least RHCP and The Strokes on the same day on RW.

There have been criticisms about the organization of the MD here on the forum but one thing is for sure is that they have a big poster... and they still lack a name

Rock Werchter had bigger lineup (just in popularity, quality can be debatable always) than Mad Cool in the previous years is well. Mad Cool is the one who announces first so they get all the "wow, look at that lineup" reactions then Werchter comes 3 months later with basically the same lineup + some more and people aren't really wowed

Yeah that’s true enough. Werchter is my favourite festival and the only one I’ve done annually since I first went in 2014 (barring the pandemic editions obviously) but one area I would say they’re slow in is getting the line up out compared to the festivals they compete with. 

In 2018 I ended up doing both Werchter and Mad Cool because the MC line up looked too good to resist and I couldn’t risk it selling out and then Werchter not delivering. In the end Werchter had a line up equally as good so I’m hoping for a similar scenario in 2022 as well as I’ve still kept my tickets for both of them.

    • So we've signed a Horny Czech, and Bruno's turned up the training camp instead of doing Isak's nonsense.   Still not sure I believe Bruno's staying mind, but glad he's not doing the sh*t Arsenal are asking him to do to lower the price. If they want him they can stump up.   My suspicion is that whichever of Madrid/Man City don't start next season with Rodri will go for Bruno, and one of them will come in while Arsenal have f**ked about trying to get him cheap, which while I absolutely want to keep him, would still be good enough bants and a nice middle finger that I wouldn't mind it so much. I just wish we'd report Arsenal for tapping up.   If rumours are to be believed, we're after 2 more defensive signings, and an attacking player, on top of a replacement if Bruno leaves, having already signed a LW, 2 CMs, a GK, and some youth players. Huge churn, but apart from a couple of Bazou Toure's games for Ivory Coast at the world cup, I've not seen any of them play. Over 2 summers we've basically changed our entire team aside from the CBs.
    • I think the level of headliners Bloodstock get is varied    There's been bands who have gone on to play Download in quite a low spot like Meshuggah, Behemoth, Opeth etc.    Then they've had years like 2025 where you can argue that all three headliners are download main stage sub level    Knocked Loose right now i'd argue are 3rd down on main/opus headliner level while EC and FFDP are borderline main stage sub
