QOTSA missing better be an error. Holy shit that will be a huge loss if true.

Stoked for Modest Mouse though, glad that got added.

Them not being on the website doesn't make it seem like an error to me.

[49Lawson]

Yeah I’ve got to be honest I’m rather underwhelmed by that. Some of the placements look absolutely crazy, Ann-Marie replacing FNM is mental. QOTSA are a big loss and you have to imagine they must be about to cancel other things they’re doing next year too if they aren’t here. But yeah, enough to make a good weekend of it but underwhelming 

[biggygg]

Looks like qotsa is gone... Not on website anymore either when you click their name.

Wonder if its anything to do with this? https://www.theguardian.com/music/2022/jan/25/brody-dalle-testifies-josh-homme-headbutted-her-queens-of-the-stone-age

Yeah, missed the part of the website post that mentions it.

Shit. Really bad news, none of the adds make up for that.

Enjoying the line-up. A lot of people I wanted to see from the 2020 line-up are back, like Kacey Musgraves and Michael Kiwanuka, but with Carly Rae Jepsen, IDLES, Fever 333 and Snail Mail added. Good mix across the stages too. Doubt I'll have much time on my hands.

[BenG92]

At the very least, I wanted to see Sam Fender, Alt-J and Moderat anyway so it looks like I can do all 3 instead of GVF and still make Metallica. 

[Muppetmark]

Didnt  realise the streets had cancelled too.

@Ken19 Are QOTSA out for a scheduling conflict or is the whole tour off? Mad Cool and Pinkpop still have them on their website.

Was pretty confident to see Jerry Cantrell on the list, as he is in Stockholm the same weekend. Maybe added later?

[ParanoidTourist]

Good additions! 

But really bad news about QOTSA

Disappointed about QOTSA, but hopefully a indoor show will make up for that.

Anyway, more than happy with this announcement, and so excited to be back in this field in a few months. BRING ON RW 2022!

I do miss a good replacement for Faith No More and QOTSA. Hope they will find a good replacement for those names. I would imagine Florence & The Machine / The strokes could get the spot of QOTSA. Maybe Tame Impala would join either way XD

Wait a minute. They want to move them to Graspop replacing Aerosmith, don‘t they? @Ken19?

[lighthouse]

So Thom Yorke has been replaced by... Polo G? 

And how on earth are First Aid Kit subbing the Barn?

Looking at the fact there are 7 names on the main stage each day, I sadly don't see this happening.

Love first aid kit, if I go will be lovely to see them.

That's not happening. They're playing Pinkpop on Sunday.

I assume one name is missing in the Barn on Thursday. Please be Lorde at least.

THU : 1 Barn, 1 Klub C

FRI : 2 Klub C

SAT : 1 Klub C

SUN : seems complete

That would be a very welcomed replacement for me (I'm also going to Graspop) but considering that the Aerosmith day was the first one to sell out I don't see it happening. Unless they've cancelled their tour or something.

My rough plan so far, obviously clash-permitting but this should be mostly okay

Thursday
Haim (main)
Fontaines D.C. (main)
Cigarettes After Sex (klub)
Pixies (main)
The War on Drugs (main)
Beck (barn)
Pearl Jam (main)

Friday
Turnstile (barn)
Idles (main)
Sam Fender (barn)
Alt-J (barn)
Moderat (barn)
Metallica (main)

Saturday
Nothing But Thieves (main)
Maneskin (main)
Phoebe Bridgers (barn)
Jamie XX (barn)
Bicep (klub)

Sunday
Fever 333 (barn)
Sum 41 (main)
Keane (main)
Modest Mouse (klub)
Michael Kiwanuka (barn)
Royal Blood (main)

QOTSA hurts but looking at that list I'm still very happy.

Well I'm mostly happy anyway. Got what I wanted. Anything from here is a bonus.

I guess we'll be seeing each other a lot ! 😅

One thing that scares me is the Jamie XX - Bicep situation. I want to see both really badly, but I think a lot of people will feel the same way with the main-stage lineup on that day, and that might mean early "full barn-klub c"

Lots of names but I expected some more nice names. Even if I have to discover a lot. Very sad QOTSA won't be there... The line-up of Metallica's day is not that great unfortunately. Sad they upgrade boring Greta Van Fleet and didn't find a good other sub. But as the day is already soldout, they didn't really care I guess... or maybe didn't find.

I don't know at all Anne-Marie... The Sunday is really the best day: Red Hot, The Killers, Royal Blood, Keane, Jimmy Eat World, Sum 41, Fever 333... Fingers crossed the line-up will stay like that but with a few acts already cancelling their Summer plans (Queens Of The Stone Age, Hatebreed, maybe Aerosmith...), it doesn't look great.
