I agree with everything you said. Of course it´s Werchter and there will be many good things to see but I still feel very let down that they missed so many good acts this year: The Smile, Arcade Fire, Massive attack, Prodigy, the National, Lana del Rey, Pulp etc. My daughter really wants to see Måneskin and Dua Lipa so I will go to Werchter regardless for 2 days this year and then go to Way Out West as a bonus;) 

 

That’s it exactly mate; for me the headliners and smaller names are fine, it’s just those “medium to big” names that are missing that is the difference this year I think. 

Enjoy WoW though, that looks a great line up!

Any ideas who might fill out some of those Slope slots? 

I've seen Blondshell as a highly likely which is great because that debut is excellent. I would also like to see Teenage Wrist, The Chats, Tigercub, Soccer Mommy, Basement. 

Dream modus: Young Fathers closing one night at the Slope. That would be epic.

I saw linups start at 13:00 and end up at 1:00 ...what pepole do in between beside sleep.. its like half day with no concerts and then marathon between stages.  Why???

What to do in between? Well, you can sleep, party at the camping or at your place (it takes time to leave the ground), eat well to recover for the next day... RW is just a massive place focused on music. You just go there to watch the biggest bands worldwide (not always the case, right) with anything fancy around like a big wheel, games or stuff like that.

I know they’re hyped a lot already but what a performance by The Last Dinner Party tonight in Brussels.

They’re so confident in their sound and that’s only their first record. Probably the last time they’re playing a tiny venue here.

Expecting a good turnout in the Barn to start the Saturday.

Interesting year for headliners that. Everything from stinky to questionable to "good but uninteresting". Easy year to skip and save money. Curious whether I could make something out of it so...

Thur: Gaslight >Hives > Parkway > Slowdive > PH Harvey > eat during GVF > Jane's Addiction > The Streets

Fri: Visit Belgium all day > Bad Omens > Archive > Tom Morello > Snow Patrol maybe > early night

Sat: Noname > Jessie Ware > NBT / Janelle > Avril > The Blaze > Marc Rebillet > another early night

Sun: Brutus > Scowl > Idles > Loyle Carner > Michael Kiwanuka > Foos

Yeah, bit of a rough year for what RW usually has.

Tremendous undercard this year. Thursday really is among the best days of any European festival announced so far.

Great names in the two tents that day. The main stage is a big meh though. Not feeling that Greta/Lenny ending myself.

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
