Semprini Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 Cracking line up and that's just based on the bands/DJ's I know. Facebook post says 'check the full line up now' so sounds like this is the lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDave Posted March 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 very low positions for King Giz and Sigrid. No LG either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r55N Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) I was 100% sure Halsey will be there... and generally the pop acts don't appeal to me. overall the poster looks pretty decent though and is refreshingly different to most summer festivals so far. congrats to the team!

#1SzigetFan Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 At least you got Slipknot. It could have been worse, it could have been Kings of Leon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDave Posted March 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) Having looked again, it's comfortably the worst line up since 2015 for me, ignoring last years. Some decent bands there but not just not the headliners for me and the lack of proper Marquee bands is really disappointing. Pop acts aren't the greatest either as @r55N has said. May have to look elsewhere sadly. Edited March 21, 2022 by DDave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adequate8 Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 what is pukkelpop like compared to roch werchter and sziget? we found werchter to be very quiet/chilled compared to UK festivals for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VCF Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 Studio Brussel says it's 90% of the line-up btw (but PKP's facebook page promotes it as full line up). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On poster, you can see "Loading... 92%". So I guess we still miss 8% of the line-up. Including maybe one last big name for Friday because both Saturday and Sunday have 3 "big names". Stormzy?

VCF Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) Oops didn't see that, good catch. Ken told us Stormzy would eventually play CORE Festival in May, but I don't know whether that rules him out for PKP or not. EDIT : "Maybe PKP but not as a headliner". Why not then!

johnybegood Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) Maybe what has not been announced yet are bands that are playing other belgian festivals? There is one strage thing in the line-up. Every day we have a big rock name topping the bill (Slipknot, Limp Bizkit and BMTH) but there are not similar bands in the smaller names. What it going to do a Slipknot fan the rest of the day? It's is hard for me to understand why removing shelter stage but still booking big rock/metal bands. I am sure that the festival will get sold out really fast, but I would like to see the line-up from the day-event (August 14th) before taking a decision. I have a feeling that the day event line up will be full of interesting bands for my musical tastes.

bluenova Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 What is happening with Cypress Hill to make them headliners? They played in 2017 and weren't even in bold on the line up - at least nine other names bigger than them. Seems like a very odd choice.

I think it'll rather be bands that still have to sell out their standalone show. There are quite a few "near-certainties" who have a Belgian club show this Spring which isn't sold out yet: Beach House, Parquet Courts, Strand of Oaks, Low, ...

Archi Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 About SlipKnot, they play a few mainstream festivals this Summer and always have a non-rock line-uo that day. look at their day at Cabaret Vert with sub Pixies... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muppetmark Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 Clash dependent this could be a really good or really bad lineup for me. 5-10 acts per day i really want to see. If i miss out on glastonbury ticket i'll give this a good think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friday 3 / Saturday 8 / Sunday 4 bands for me and some of those I'll be seeing at Primavera. Not enough to get me there at the moment. If it was Rage instead of Slipknot that would have probably done it for me but not to be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
