Did anyone pick up the Daft Punk "Get Lucky" condoms they were giving out in Leuven? My mates and I all managed to pick some up; didn't realise how rare they were.

Also two of my friends got all of their money stolen during Biffy Clyro however the thieves luckily didn't take their bank cards so once we got back in to Leuven they managed to take more money out; although the scariest part was that one of them also had their passport taken, only for it to reappear at their feet a few minutes later, so I guess it was nice of them to give it back.

Does anyone know if you can buy rw13 t shirts anywhere. I've somehow managed to lose mine

Was certain I'd packed it but it wasn't in my bag when I got home.

Surely they'll want to offload any unsold stock somewhere right?

Band prediction for next year(early I know )

Pearl Jam: They played in 2010 and 2012. They have a new album this fall and already have an N-America tour announced.

Radiohead: Haven't played since 2008 but there have been constant rumors for the last 3-4 years that they'd play RW.

Daft Punk: Just a feeling. They didn't tour this year following the release of their new album, so maybe they'll tour next year?

Any other??

[Gucci Piggy]

Don't think Radiohead will have an album out ready to tour next Summer, and Daft Punk have reportedly turned Coachella down for next year, so I don't think they'll be touring.

Maybe Arcade Fire? Metallica if the new album's out in time? Agree on Pearl Jam being a possibility.

[jonnyf]

I hear Foo Fighters are working on a new album

Rage Against The Machine where rumored to be touring coming from an interview with Geezer Butler earlier this year, not sure what happened with that possibly pushed their plans back for next year maybe.

Metallica? Mumford & Sons? The Killers? Pearl Jam would be great also

I think they might go for muse and linkin park too. Is also expect avenged sevenfold to be booked quite high as they're getting huge in Belgium and Holland atm.

[Gucci Piggy]

Muse aren't doing festivals next year. Maybe Arctic Monkeys will get the headline spot they were after this year following the release of their new album?

[Gucci Piggy]

Any idea where the muse bit is from? I know they shunned festivals this year for their own shows, but are always a reliable headliner, and huge on the continent.

[msessions]

Just written a review for the festival.

Don't judge me if its not the best as its my first review haha

But read if you get a spare minute

Thanks!

Tallica, Foos, Mumford & Sons and someone who has played this year but was "good".

[thewayiam]

Wow...as far as music goes what an epic festival!!! Airbourne, BRMC, Vampire Weekend, Biffy, Bloc Party, Dizzee, sigur ros, 2 door....The LUMINEERS!!!!!!!! MAJOR LAZOR OMGG!!! KOL and blur were epic...watching the Lions win in Leuven back for the Phonics with our welsh flag (as a welshman) a personal highlight! Rammestein were insaneeee...then the Sunday, Bastille, Loved Tom Odell, Of Monsters of Men with our Icelandic camping neighbours...Jake Bugg, Dimitri Vegas was Sickkk and the End of the Editors....What a festival, Bit pricey on food and a hell of a treck for beer so would definately take a van next time.... 2 and a half hours going in was a nightmare but quickly forgotten! WOW!

Just seen these posts as I got mixed reviews this weened on KOL at werchter. A few of the T crowd had seen them there and said they were total shit.

just posting as was interested to see if they had got their act together going by anyone on here.

[thewayiam]

I didn't think they were great. Got the impression they'd rather have been anywhere else, and I felt there was no connection with the crowd whatsoever. Not big on their current setlists either, lots of random Only By the Night songs in favour of songs like Charmer and King of the Rodeo.

[Gucci Piggy]

yeah, we actually met a few at T who were like KOL are shit and two girls who are young so right in with T's demo and all that now who said they were really shit in those words.

i mean, they hadn't sold their own arena tour last i looked, albeit at £62.50 a ticket pre - fee's. it's a bit like you've sold out, you've returned after a year and just continued. people will pay these prices for bands they think are worth it etc

[guitarbhoy1888]

i really enjoyed them at werchter but again, i was right at the front and well up for it, maybe thats why
