Rock Werchter 2009

I notice on the website it says you can take cartons and thermos flasks into the festival site - do they check if these contain alcohol? Are those cartons with screw caps allowed?

[Mr.S]

Ah yes, I remember now that A3 and C3 are the only available campsites on the web. A3 is fine by me. Does anyone have any idea when this will sell out? Also, If you have a ticket for A3, does that mean you will be able to pitch your tent there even if you arrive late in the evening?

[sinstar]

Excellent! But surely they will view a carton with a screw on cap the same way they view plastic bottles? A flask it is then. But surely this is as dangerous a missile as a plastic bottle. Oh, those crazy Belgians.

How possible does it seem that Peaches might play? New album in May, dates in Europe in May and then more touring in June? That would be dead good.

Anyone know how far away from werchter the other airport in brussels is (chareloi?), just had a gander on ryanair and flights are only £35 return which is pretty amazing, plus i might go glastonbury the week before, so driving might not be the best option lol.

As good as the rw lineup is, it'l be criminal if nin arn't there what with this being their last year of touring, and they're appearing at oxygen the week after. Just really itching for some new names now haha.

damn that sounds a bit long winded, my only criticism of rock werchter is that it seems stupid not to have people camping on the wednesday, must be loads of queues getting everyone into the campsites and then into the arena. Still, at least there's a few months to sort it.

I'm hoping for these guys to be added (being realistic and realising that Radiohead, The Strokes and Sigur Ros probably won't play):

Arctic Monkeys

Doves

Bon Iver

Fleet Foxes

Daft Punk

MGMT

Vampire Weekend

Royksopp

Manics
