P.bintein Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 I don't blame government, health is the most important thing and they've no other choice.

Festcrazy Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Indeed. You should stay at home if you're affraid of virus. In 60's we had pandemics of flu and we had Woodstock. People are dying, that's reality, but what sort of life will be living in cage? 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RW normally never bump up artists. I'm 99% sure we'll get a replacement for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the last two posters there's (roughly) 8 headline sized acts and 25 mid-range, we have our 8 big names on the poster so we're due about 6 more after FNM and The Streets dropping. My guesses would be something along the lines of BMTH, Wolf Alice, Bastille, Slowthai, Little Simz, Idles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it will be your decision to get a vaccine or stay at home blablabla. Simple as that Allow all events without restrictions? Its craziness . People from all over the world bringing together , perfect place to create mass infection and new variants. Then everybody goes home and you ll see what happens. As long its not your father, mother or grandparents that got seriously sick there s no problem and you can party? Better take the decision for obligate vaccination in whole world. Would solve much problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love live show but in the next few years, I don't think it'll be possible to have big show, maybe small tour in small venue but not mass event like festival. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beffrey Jezos Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 I couldn't help but notice - Nine Inch Nails are playing Hellfest so are in the local area. Any chance they'll show up As a Faith No More replacement or otherwise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they should shut down all the music industry. You can have online events, but there are not even close to real live music. We did what we can with vaccines really, virus will be around probably forever. Edited January 5, 2022 by Festcrazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think NiN probably have a few unannounced dates for next year considering they've got 3 random festival dates throughout the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archi Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 We are early January. Things can change quickly. Yes, Omicron is here but lot of countries are giving a 3rd vaccine/booster. Let's have some hope people! Come on! Remember that less than 3 months ago, in October, life was coming back to almost normal, I honestly thought we couldn't be in a situation like we are today. It's Winter. We may have some hope cases and variant will be less present when Spring is coming. Festivals need to know lot of time in advance. Let's hope the gov' will be a better job this time. From mid-February, we should have a unique Covid Passeport in all Europe (at least European Union), it may help. At least to have the same rules everywhere. Let's see in a few weeks what's the situation. Last Summer, many festivals happened in UK. A few festivals like Alcatraz happened in Belgium. A few festivals in other European countries as well. Without being the beginning of a new crisis. So it's possible. Keep hope. If you don't, how bands and promoter can? 🙂 About Rock Werchter, as it's this topic: I'm pretty sure they'll find a good replacement for Faith No More. At least to motivative a public a little bit different than the fans of ID/21P/Yungblud... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that during the summer situation is always better and in October he have better situation than now during the winter. Artists need to be sure that they can do entire tour without problems and at the moment they can't be sure about that and that's the reason why some of them already cancel tour. For example, one US artist needs to be sure that they can do one/two month European without getting positive. Looks like they need to test themselves even being vaccinated.

Floyd_Ams Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 In other news..."The Smile" are becoming more and more active. Their debut album is at the track-listing stage and a launch concert is announced for the end of January. So if we are to see Thom Yorke at RW this year (and I think we will) in any form, it looks like this will be the one. Another band that will be touring in the summer and would be a perfect fit for RW (@The Barn) is Madrugada. I really hope the the bookers have their eyes on them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd_Ams Posted January 8, 2022 Report Share Posted January 8, 2022 Me too, but I remain hopeful. There is a great number of European bands (hence, less risk of cancelations) that, a priori, will be touring this summer. Primavera Sound and Graspop have a few of them already.
