I would rule out Limp Bizkit, simply because their 2009 performance was terrible, and the organizers know that. They had the chance to book them in 2010 and 2011, and they didn't (even though they played the sister festival in 2011).

Also, I wouldn't put money on (a high spot for) Kaiser Chiefs, two weeks ago they were begging the organizers to call them in an interview....

Limp Bizkit terrible in 2009? I'm no LB fan and this Nu Metal scene is not my thing but me and all my mates were very impressed with LB in 2009. They got the crowd going and were very humble. I hope they'll play this year as there is not one band I like on Friday or Sunday...

I'd say they are all possible, yes none may play but I'd say they're all more likely than not. As others have said they are all playing dates/festivals around the time of Rock Werchter.

Obviously I know nothing about Limp Bizkits performance at RW 09 but I have seen them be brilliant on 2 different occasions and always got the crowd going. So it depends on how many options they have for slots and if they are over this certain performance.

I saw the article that Kaiser Chiefs were practically begging to play and I think if Werchter were clever they'd be a good band to book low main, in a sort of Two Door or Hives spot of last year. Not taking a high spot but a good live band playing low down the bill, look a strong and good booking that I think KC would accept.

I know Steel Panther is not your typical RW band but they are probably the most fun band I've ever seen. They have not yet been confirmed for Graspop(witch is probably a more likely destination for them if they do a Belgian festival) but I'd love to see them at RW.
