I'm still waiting for mine.
Then during the festival we walk with him and with a bracelet ?

If that surprising news is Arcade Fire or Kendrick Lamar shaped, I'll be very happy.

The 18th is currently that stand-up comedy event. So either they're throwing the concept around because of an unexpected availability (Springsteen is rumoured to consider touring again), or the ticket sales must be so disastrous that they're already axing it after barely 2 weeks.

Yes, was confirmed yesterday by the organisation to the local tv station

Comedy event on the 18th has been cancelled, poor ticket sales

Good news! Not sure if I dare to reawaken my hope for McCartney  but hopefully a good line up will appear. 

[VCF]

Is the surprising news the cancellation or a last minute replacement then?

[Archi]

Guess we could have the announcement tomorrow then! Only acts like Bruce Springsteen or Paul McCartney could sell enough tickets for this size of shows in less than 3 months.

Don't think McCartney is that huge of a ticket seller. Didn't even sell out his day at RW16 actually.

Thanks

So, unless plans changed since our last discussion, Encore is actually TW Classic 2 with Florence as (co?) headliner?

Because the thread is suddenly speaking of Bruce and Macca, but that would be surprising if Florence is still due to play.

Unless she’s a sub.

According to trustworthy sources on Festileaks, Encore will take place on 26 June and there will be no replacement event for 18 June. So we can drop those hopes of having another classic headliner.

My GF didn't even go to see Paul, just went home. Still makes me cry when I think about it. But for a lot of people he remains the guy that plays the guitar on FourFiveSeconds. 😢

Is tw classic 2 happening on the 26th then? Or just another day?

Yes, TWC2 is happening on 26th of June, Werchter Boutique 19th of June, TWC1 25th of June

[VolkIreland]

So this special encore has nothing to do with RW as a whole then?
