[Dead throne]

A new thread for a new year.

Personally I can see Metallica, Artic Monkeys, The Prodigy, Mastodon, skrillex etc being announced

Going to start it already

Daft punk ...

[Gossard]

Pearl Jam and NIN are pretty much nailed on I think....

[Gossard]

Totally agree.

Said I wouldn't go back next year, already planning to go back lol.

[thetime]

now this'd worry me to think about going, would you imagine they may play same day?

[thewayiam]

Who knows, it's one of the hardest to predict who will pay before who. Arcade fire played before them in 2010 and in 2012 DEUS who were named after a sugarcubes song(bjork).

[thetime]

played before PJ i'm guessing? ah was DEUS Bjork?

[thewayiam]

Yeah before pearl jam, no DEUS are a Belgian band named after a sugarcubes song.

[Dietediet]

I wouldn't see Pearl Jam as nailed on yet, would kinda lead to an overload... (they played in '07 - '10 - '12 as well). I bet PJ is doing either an indoor gig or Pukkelpop next summer, and possibly Werchter on a later tour.

[Gossard]

oh i got bjork from you putting bjork in brackets lol

[karelaanzee]

Some (extremely) early guesses:

QOTSA - Placebo - Daft Punk - Arctic Monkeys - The National - MGMT - Elbow - Arcade Fire - NIN - Hurts - Miles Kane - The Prodigy - Local Natives - Franz Ferdinand - Foals

Black ones are nailed on I think.

[eldest300]

Here's who I think will play on the main stage

Kasabian Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds

Nine Inch Nails Queens of the Stone Age

Pearl Jam Biffy Clyro

Arcade Fire Elbow

Does Werchter sell out fast I'm thinking about going to a festival in Europe next year and I am thinking about going to it if it sells out what over festivals are popular in Europe

Is that a top two for each day?

Kasabian played half way down the main stage last year, so won't headline.

Nine Inch Nails are subbing Pukklepop this year which is a smaller festival, so are unlikely to headline. Will probably play, though.

Biffy Clyro played 3rd from top in the tent this year, so would be nowhere near that high.

Apologies if that sounds blunt.

[Ovechkin]

Didn't Monkeys turn down Werchter this year since mr Turners ego was too big?

[Dietediet]

[Ovechkin]

Werchter turned down Monkeys cause they demanded a headlining spot, and those already were filled in at the moment they announced doing 2013 fests.

[Dietediet]

surely if they really wanted AM they could have changed around the bands a bit to make them fit for a headline slot? The National for example was announced after the new year iirc while AM first fest dates were announced early december.

[Sparticus]

Going to take a punt on next year

QOTSA - The Killers - Metallica

Kanye West - Arctic Monkeys - The Prodigy

Placebo - Lady Gaga - Daft Punk

Blink 182 - NIN - Muse

Trying to take an educated guess on who will be touring next year, I'd have said Mumford but I can see them headlining pukkelpop, reading/leeds etc

Pearl Jam just announced Australia/New Zealand tour in jan/feb. With N-American tour in the fall, I think we can expect European tour to be announced for next summer....and that means Rock Werchter is pretty likely.
