Pinkpop have now added that on their app too and Tom Odell confirmed he’s there so…. As we thought/knew.  It’s him for Werchter

 

In their last Instagram post, Tom Odell officially confirmed by Pinkpop in the times Hello Tempest Road was supposed to play

Both Southside and Hurricane in Germany also had an unannounced act on their timetables. 
Guess what? It’s Tom Odell 🙃

Why on God's green earth did anyone suddenly decide that he was so exciting that it was worth this stunt? I wouldn't say he is for any festival, but especially not one he played last year. As with many other things this year, it's extremely underwhelming.

Yeah I don't care too much myself, but I just don't understand it...

Mindblowing. I can't understand why they've not put him in the Barn either. If not just for a change from last year, that style of music is far better suited there.

agreed mate.  I’ve not been before but having 1 day on the main stage with Tom Odell, Damiano David, Yungblud and Goldband all who have played last year/recently is very odd

Bonjour à tous,

je revends 2 billets pour la journée du dimanche.
Venant de Tahiti, je dois retourner plus tôt que prévu en Polynésie, je ne pourrai donc pas assister au festival.
J'ai essayé via le site mais il n'autorise pas les paiements sur les comptes polynésiens.
Je les vends 260 euros les 2 tickets.
Remise en main propre sur Lille ou alentours.

FRI: The Scratch, Thee Sacred Souls, Jasmine 4.t, Wet Leg, Bad Nerves, Weezer, Boston Manor, Girl in Red, Lola Young into Simple Minds, Fat Dog, Green Day

That’s a lot of running around.  Great lineup for you though.  There’s a few acts I want to be at the front for so will have to skip others.  Most annoying is probably missing English Teacher to be at the front for Fontaines DC

still a while to go, but imagine 🤣

Managed to find a decent priced hotel in Leuven, so if anyone needs two Camping A tickets - DM me please.

After 3-4 weeks of glorious weather, we all know when the rain sets in 😉

If you’re worried about the weather wait until you find out Linkin Park cancelled a gig today

So that means Yungblud will be subbing on Saturday and headlining on Thursday. Good week for him.. 

 

Or maybe they'll just announce Hello Tempest Road as the Thursday headliner we've been waiting for all the time..

Jokes aside, after tonight, that Saturday would have 1000× been better by KOL closing it as a headliner....yes I'm aware they had to pull, Yungblud just as a sub and Sam pissing off. Yungblud was class tonight at the bowl, really good show. And that's how quick things turn gloomy again.

That's a line you don't hear very often. 😅

Shows the strength of it doesn't it compared to others. Obviously I'm more of a fan of then than the closer but that would have been a great 1 - 2 to finish after hearing last night. Two weeks to go without Thursday selling out though Friday and Sunday are sold out, Friday especially on the basis of the headliner itself, the undercard is quote dead overall though a level up from IOW Sunday last year.

I don't question that Yungblud is a good live artist, I've seen him multiple times myself, but he was there last year and it was a lazy booking. That's it, and it's not acceptable in any way or form. If Tom Odell now is the major surprise on Saturday, the whole thing just becomes a major joke.

I can't disagree with you on that, just based on what they've booked that would be the best scenario. Yes he shouldn't be booked again. Tom Odell I like and he some sentimental value to my Mum to do with family so for me Tom, Yungblud and KOL would have actually been better than the Friday but that's from a view of someone that didn't go last year. Having Tom. Yungblud and Damiano David all on the same day again this year is the height of lacking thought process though they have obviously struggled to book acts. A booking strategy I can't see them continuing into next year. You can't almost bet though that KOL will be in the mix now for next year as they now come into the returning after pulling out pool lol. I wouldn't even be looking forward to Weezer now on Friday as they were dull at Download, rivers crowd interaction is now very minimal and back years ago that's part of what made them a really good option to see.

[sisco]

Next week we’ll all be having the best time.  Cannot bloody wait. Sorted out most of my stuff over the weekend so all feeling very real now

I reckon The Prodigy have a chance of playing this with touring next year in April, especially being a UK and Ireland tour.
