I wasn't necessarily centering in on Pearl Jam...... i was using them as an example.

Too many festivals booking the same bands these days. Some bands who have not released anything worth listening to in years (not PJ) , IF anything at all!

 

There are too many festivals...

My first time going to RW loved this:

Tame Impala / The Strokes / Foals / My Chemical Romance

Rage Against the Machine / System of a Down / Kasabian / Royal Blood / 

Coldplay /  Pixies / Cigarret after Sex / kings of leon

Green Day / Black Keys / Lana Del Rey / Editors

Green Day, Black Keys impossible. 

Editors, KOL hopefully not. 

I doubt that Lana will tour in the Werchter period.

Green Day , They are in america on July 17 . Last date in europe is 3 days before RW starts.
Last year here in Portugal the band Bush was in the USA came to Portugal to give a concert and returned to USA.
Why impossible the Black Keys?

Lana is already doing we love green festival in Paris in early June, she could easily stick around for this

Black Keys pulled out of all their EU dates, so even if they were booked they aint now

Green Day already plays in Belgium that period. So - luckily - they are ruled out. 

A bit afraid of the early date for Lana at We Love Green. She normally doesn't stay long in Europe, so I think she is very unlikely now.

So while we are still waiting - does RATM being potentially available make SOAD less likely? Would Werchter be open to have 2 metal (co-) headliners in one year at this point in time when other festivals are going more pop?

I see SOAD doing Graspop as they did RW last time, so they were never really likely to me. Really wonder if RATM are doing Europe in 2020. Gut feeling says no, but the complete disbandment of PoR seems to suggest otherwise...

[CJTM]

How nailed on are PJ for 2020 do we think?

[DJekRus]

Any ideas about Deftones on RW? Or they will fit Graspop more?

Grand, I've just placed an outside bet on them for Glastonbury the week before seeing as they're one of the founders favourite bands of all time

PJ usually announced in Dec? or in the new year?

[Daniel Ferreira]

Will Deftones announced at Mad Cool in Spain be possible for RW? ?

Can't see them on Glastonbury. 2014 and 2018 Euro tours were announced early December.

They have been ruled out for Glastonbury by the same insider who confirmed them for 2020 on their message board.

If it's the Greek guy, don't think he has that much inside info, PJ tend to do the same cycle, so you can predict where they will be on most EU routes, i.e. Werchter

They could! For a reason I understand, Graspop have never booked them when they're on tour during Summer (they only played once, in 1998). The band play a club-show or don't play in Belgium.

I think he has. Been proven right several times with info that is not that obvious as PJ at Werchter.

[Ken19]

Off course Pearl Jam is a done deal, the Greek guy is the best source possible. No doubt about that. 

Deftones is a perfect fit for the acts that are touring next summer. If they are not announced tomorrow for Graspop, RW is a possibility.

I think Firenze Rocks is going to announce the RHCP. As explained in the corresponding thread. PJ won‘t play Firenze according to rumors.
