Pearl Jam must be the Pixies.

I think Friday is going to be The Killers and The Strokes. Although there is talk of strong rumors of Queens Of The Stone Age at glastonbury 2022

I think you can quite easily fill in the missing headliners such that you come to the following set: 

Thursday: Pearl Jam - The War On Drugs (Pixies one position lower)

Friday: Metallica - Royal Blood

Saturday: Gorillaz - Twenty-One Pilots - Faith No More 

Sunday: Imagine Dragons - The Killers (or another usual suspect)

The Strokes could possibly be shifted to TW Classic (as they did with Placebo)?

As much as I agree with you on Thu-Fri-Sat vision...that Sunday looks WRONG 

 

@Ken19can we expect anything this week/month ? 3 months of silence is enough !

[Daniel Ferreira]

Sunday without RHCP, at least Strokes and QOTSA!
If it's not even worth leaving my country because it will be identical to NOS Alive.

Another week, another nothing ;(

Think we’ll most likely be waiting until November/December again

In the lack of other news, I can mention that Bergenfest, a Norwegian festival, released some names today. It's taking place two weeks before RW and has previously had quite a few overlappaing artists, especially among the undercards. Today they released Grace Jones, Michael Kiwanuka, Ziggy Marley (doing a Bob Marley tribute), Jade Bird, Gary Clark Jr and Charlotte Jane for the 14th of June. Previously Robyn is announced for the 15th and Biffy Clyro for the 16th of June. Hopefully this could mean that other festivals also are starting to come around now..

Today! 😉

My money still is on the RHCP. But not for any particular reason. Maybe because their 2022 tour still isn‘t announced although it should have been. Combined with Werchter mysteriously waiting for the Sunday head. Maybe this adds up.

I'm with you.

Graspop announced on Wednesday and yesterday. So today is available... announcement at 4pm? Would be great!

About the RHCP, I also think they gonna be there in 2022 but I guess they're waiting to release a new single and/or announce officially the new album before announce the tour.

[misterplow]

Hoping for The Strokes, Tame Impala or Arctic Monkeys at the moment. 

[tmolvik]

I'll take anything that even resembles to a sign that there is announcement activity going on, even if it turns out to be Barry Manilow 😉

[Nicklord]

RHCP put out that they'll tour next year, EU leg starts June and USA leg starts in July. No dates yet, was that it for today Ken?

 

 

[Karlos12345]

Looking at their common tour structure it is 3-4 weeks per leg with a week off. Guessing early June to early July in Europe and US from end of July.

Best tour trailer ever 🖤

"Breaking News: The news is broken!"

Just sad they didn't announce the dates at the same time! But the hype is real!

I’m confused why there is hype as they were booked for 2021… surely it’s likely they’d be back in the frame again.

Not really, as they cancelled most other festival appearances.

[Ken19]

Stadium tour it is. But honestly, I haven’t followed all the bookings lately (events in Belgium are a go, busy with other things). In Belgium, Peppers are not a stadium band. So it would be typical Herman Schueremans to fix it and let them play in Werchter. Just like pink, muse, gnr… I expect the tour announcement of the peppers next week. 
 

Werchter will announce very soon, but you didn’t need me to realise that 😃.

We didn't but the reassurance is much appreciated regardless
