Hope I’m wrong, would have loved to have seen them here PJ Harvey played Rock Werchter on almost every tour she’s done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's very true, hadn't realised she had been announced alongside Pulp too. I was just thinking if they're booking Dua Lipa for one of the nights then Pulp would have been a fantastic counter-booking in the Barn for us boring old souls. *I say that as a big Dua Lipa fan to be fair, I was just thinking of someone realistic who could be playing Werchter who Pulp could play opposite in the Barn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJ Harvey is also doing Bergenfest in Norway mid-June as well, so I'm guessing there's a good chance of seeing her at RW as she'll probably stay around in Europe then...

Doubt that the Barn would be packed, regardless of the headliner they're clashing with. They also seem like an act that would prefer headlining Lokerse Feesten or Live Is Live over playing the Barn.

Why the downvote for this, @SonicSleuth? I'm saying I'd rather NOT want this to happen, so I'm very positive about both names. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're probably right, but I do definitely agree that I think they're sadly more likely for one of the other festivals you've mentioned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My preference is Pulp + Dua Lipa on stage together, let's get the "Common People" update for 2024! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
49Lawson Posted October 26, 2023 Report Share Posted October 26, 2023 Rumours in the 'Tour Announcement' Thread about Pearl Jam dates gathering speed. Have to imagine they'll be back here if they're about. I wouldn't mind it personally as I've not seen them since 2018 but appreciate some people may be a bit disheartened by it with them being there in 2022. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrej Posted October 26, 2023 Report Share Posted October 26, 2023 From what I hear, PJ are definitely in Europe next summer, and are doing a 3 week leg, a mix of solo headline shows and festivals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they would have packed the Barn, but who knows. Maybe it's the nostalgic in me talking, but I for one would have loved it 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strudd3rs Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 Are Machine Head too extreme to be expected at Werchter? I’m considering returning in 2024 instead of going to Download but if Download have Machine Head it’ll be tough to resist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archi Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 No chance Machine Head play at Werchter. And as they came as exclu EU this Summer at Graspop, there's no interest/logic to see them coming back at Graspop in 2024. About heavy bands, I'm wondering if Parkway Drive could come back at Werchter as they played already on the Main Stage in 2019 (between Muse, Greta Van Fleet and other Yungblud...). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohad Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Seems like Rosklide is announcing first headliner tomorrow. If it is indeed, as rumored, Foo Fighters, I guess it makes RW even more likely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
