wouldnt mind atoms for peace.

they're one of the only bands so far that would make me be like, wow, how did they get them.

hoping for more bands further up the bill too. seems as though theres quite a few spaces higher up on each day, or am i wrong ?

I Agree with thetime! Adding Ben Howard as a massive drawing card as well as Band of Horses and Phoenix!

Bloc Party were INSANE in Johannesburg end of last year.

Think at least one very big name act is still to be announced

Carlos Santana, Blondie, Ben Harper and Keane confirmed for TW Classic. I would have loved so see Santana, Blondie and Ben Harper at RW...

[Duff Man]

Ah I'm gutted.

Would have loved to have seen Ben Harper.

[Gossard]

And NIne Inch Nails back to gather and touring in '13 and '14...maybe RW this year or next

Guess they're nailed on as headliner for Pukkelpop.

[Nafalgar]

I see what you did there..

First names usually in March, no huts I believe but I can be wrong.

And don't expect SOAD to be announced for PKP. They won't come.

Hi Guys. Just a couple of questions.

Is there information when I arrive on the shuttle bus as to which campsites are open/full so that I'm not wondering around aimlessly with my gear?

Secondly, is there an ample beer supply in the shops in Haacht/Werchter so that I don't have to bring a pile of cans from the UK?

Are there lockers with phone chargers in at the site (like Lockerhouse in the UK)?

First time going to Rock Werchter, really looking forward to it. Depeche Mode GET IN!!!

Cheers

[Nafalgar]

The shuttles are continuous all day for free. The campsites are marked full if they are on the signs but not always.. They aren't miles away from eachother anyway! As for beer, its Belgium, you can find it anywhere: also in Werchter and Haacht, you can expect there to be some stash for such an event in their area. There are indeed lockers that you'll have to rent daily - forgot the price but it's on the website, I recall 12€..?

Is it just me or does RW announcements this year seem to come after the other festivals although the names seem to be very similar?

hopefully this week at some point ...

is there a link apart from being on the same land ?

Tw = Torhout-Werchter. Used to be like Reading-Leads a 2 place festival, it evolved into Werchter and so they made TW Classic which is held on the same festival grounds . So yeah, they're linked .
