Like you say, the posters obviously fake, but it might be worth wondering who could on this lineup could realisticly end up at the actual festival. The Killers? Adele? Drake? All names which we haven't really thought about. Opinions?

[Red Day]

Tame Impala would be decent addition.  See Nile Rodgers is taking Fold festival to London the week before RW.  How would Chic go down at Werchter ?

I'd love to see Chic as Sunday night party act after Florence! Would be a great closer imo! How likely, I'm not sure.

I saw Chic at Glastonbury a couple of years ago.  Magical experience and would be something else in the Barn

I work for Zumic.  We were getting some traffic from your site to our Rock Werchter event page (link above), so I checked and you're absolutely right. That poster is fake and the lineup isn't accurate.  Sorry for any confusion, we've fixed it up as soon as we noticed our mistake!!!

I have my fingers crossed massively for Tame Impala, hoping they'll headline the barn but I'm thinking they may be too big in Belgium but I just don't see them pulling off outdoor stages.

I hope we'll FINALLY get some names tomorrow !! (Tenacious D, PJ Harvey, The National would do the trick).

Tame Impala playing in Italy, July 5th

[McCallion]

I think I'll break down if we don't get new names tomorrow!

Believe strongly ! I'd be surprised if Tame Impala does not play at Rock Werchter. Now, after viewing who's still possible for RW and touring, I'm hoping for Glen Hansard, Gogol Bordello, Frightened Rabbit, Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats, The Lumineers and Stereophonics. 

[Hyllebergxd]

These are the bands I am really hoping for and can make the lineup even more awesome: 

From Download Festival that Graspop doesn't have (yet): Korn, Breaking Benjamin, Billy Talent, Halestorm, Deftones
And other bands around: Five Finger Death Punch, Tenaciuos D, Of Monsters and Men, Bloc Party and SIXX: A.M.

Other wishes: Blink-182, Bruce Springsteen, Myles Kennedy (with Slash or Solo), Godsmack, Papa Roach and Starset

 

[Mr. luiguibangbang]

Waiting for an announcement today !!!

[Rouckos]

Out for Weezer & Panic At The Disco -> US Tour

[McCallion]

Parov Stelar, PJ Harvey, Richard Hawley, Courtney, Unknown Mortal Orchestra. Some pretty dece names but not as staggering as I was hoping for :/

[Cammers]

And still no Thursday?!?

Haha! Didn't notice that! Madness!

[Cammers]

I actually just had to check the website dates just to make sure RW was still going to be a 4 day festival this year!

 

[Red Day]

That's more like a last few fillers announcement. Pretty poor imo. Was expecting something a bit better

[Nicklord]

I have an (crazy) idea. What if they have Guns n Roses on Thursday with only like 3 bands before them or just Guns n Roses? I mean, they cost a lot and I mean, a lot  and they'll probably sell day tickets.

[Red Day]

Very unlikely. 

[Tremousse]

Glad for Parov Stelar and PJ Harvey, but I expect more. Guns'N'Roses are too expensive for Rock Werchter. I'd be disappointed if it's Gun'sN'Roses cause that means that the other names will be cheap names. So please no GnR. Honestly, who is satisfied for the moment ?

Personnally, I don't care the fuck of MO, Jamie XX, Beirut (worst gig I've ever been to), Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Richard Hawley and Courtney Barnett. It sounds like Coachella.

[Dietediet]

Actually, PJ Harvey, Richard Hawley, Jamie XX, UMO and Courtney Barnett are the only names I care about for the moment. It's currently still not looking like I'll buy a combi ticket though. 

[lightning1000]

Yeah, pretty shit so far.
