TheKiewitGuy Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Festileaks insider reporting that we'll get smaller packages every day of this week instead of the whole load today. I'm guessing in an hour then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero activity on social media. Heard that we are definitely getting names though, still unsure personally. 30 Seconds to Mars are playing Antwerp on Wednesday. Could be the reason?

SilverLining Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 I'm gonna nail on NERD based solely upon Chokris daughter RT'ing a wish list with them on it. Never listened to them fully so wouldn't be a hit or a miss for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKiewitGuy Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Their Instagram story contains clear hints for 2 artists: The War On Drugs and Dua Lipa. I'll be pissed if that's all we're getting today after such a long wait. Even more because I just want to see some names we hadn't guessed yet.

Slim chance though. 30 Seconds to Mars & Imagine Dragons tomorrow I'm guessing. Indeed, especially because we know ID is 100% going to be there. Greg was right again. "Don't expect mega headliners like Rock Werchter". I'm happy with TWOD, but a top line of TWOD, Dua Lipa, ID, 30STM and Kendrick is not at all impressive imo.

Surely she’ll just be in the slot XX were in last year, doesn’t make them a headliner IMO due to the short set-time. Won’t be going to see either likely.

Kikujiro Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Ok, guess we'll have to wait... I have two questions Dave: - Why are you predicting Charli XCX? She has a concert booked in the US the 10th of August and one the 31 (but i'll be very happy if she's not ruled out...one of the best pop acts we can get) - Aren't Vampire Weekend ruled out due to the fact that the End of the Road one will be their "first show in 4 years"?

Predicted Charli XCX due to the gap in touring and she's perfect for Pukkelpop. Been 3 years since she last played there. VW - I doubt that will be the first gig they'll play. Expect them to be added to a few late summer festivals, Rock En Seine possibly being one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKiewitGuy Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Local newspaper says one name for tomorrow. Come one, that can't be ID... The thursday will already be very hard to sell as it is (especially for a thursday), ID surely can't carry a full day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
