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.

    • Spring (or early) next year now.   Says to me that the album is/was delayed. I've done some digging but not had anything beyond that.
    • Same’s happened at MSG recently with Rush and Phish alternating nights. I guess each band has its own unique production so their riggers will be kept busy
    • The rumour was uk arena tour late this year.  Same as Charli xcx cant be announced until Reading headline is done.   
    • Latest from the sun at least is that harry is still headlining but Olivia has turned down a spot next year to work on new music and hope for 2028.   So they can't have Fender, Fontaines, Harry, Olivia and Madonna. 
    • I mean I don't think EC and FFDP are borderline sub, they wouldn't be any lower now.   2025 is about as strong as Bloodstock gets yet this year only one headline would sub and the others would play 3rd down or lower.    Machine Head wouldn't sub at Download regardless of rarity, they don't sell enough tickets and I'm not sure Gojira would sub either. Their last UK tour was a mix of smaller arenas and academy dates. Ally Pally being the only London date, not even Wembley Arena.
