Rock Am Ring 2023

[Ferda]

I forgot that Ghost is at Primavera, which makes them unlikely.

Spiritbox is supporting Ghost in France but this runs until end of May

[Ferda]

overall pretty good but the headliners are underwhelming, esp. Sunday...

 

[Archi]

WTF. Waiting all this time to get Kings Of Leon and Rise Against as headliners...

The second day with BMTH, MGK, Architects, Turnstile, Arch Enemy, Nothing Nowhere, Spiritbox and Sum 41 is really sick! Too bad the headliner is not the best that day.

[Sugar Cane]

Is Rise Against the headliner or there will be one more band? They co-headlined Hu/So with Kings of Leon this Summer.

I like Hosen, so I am very happy with Sat. Friday is also ok despite KOL bore me, still many interesting names, very good undercards. Compared to Fri&Sat, this Sunday is absolute wtf...

[Andrej]

I think this is it. They obviously had massive problems securing headliners. It unbelievable that Rise Against can headline such a massive fest like RAR / RIP. Crazy.

 

[Archi]

2010: sub below Rammstein and Them Crooked Vultures.
2015: sub below Die Totten Hosen only.
2018: sub below Foo Fighters and Gorillaz.

Nothing special happens to see them becoming headliners in 2023... I guess they had RATM that day.

Font size for Rise Against and Limp Bizkit is smaller than KoL and Hosen. Same size as the other Co-Heads such as KIZ. And yes, I just used a ruler for this 😄

I was thinking more Charlotte Sands and Maggie Lindeman. Top loads are shite

Is there day tickets to this festival?

Also, does camping is a must? because I want to go the Rock im Park and stay in hotel/airbnb instead of camping. is it possible?

Day tickets will be available later (wording of the last announcement suggests there's one last headliner to come still). RaR is camping only, but Rock im Park is perfectly suitable for the hotel stay though

Pantera out!

[Archi]

Curious to know why...

[SweetJesus]

You really asking why? Because of Anselmo’s nazi salute in 2016.

Yeps, I really asked. I know about this story and I fully understand festival decides to cancel because of that. But they knew - I guess - this story already so I thought something new happened recently and that I missed it. 

[SweetJesus]

There were some talks here on forum or on reddit or maybe festileaks 🤔 that some German associations were requesting from promoter to pull out Pantera from lineup because of Anselmo’s history.

the only European gigs in 2023, quite huge

[Nicklord]

They had to pull 2 big exclusives this year. I guess this was their Plan G for the year after everything else fall apart

[Matt86]

[Archi]

Wow. Didn't see it coming. 

They also add Bad Wolves, Blond, Cari Cari, Die Nerven, Five Finger Death Punch, Mod Sun, Pabst, Sam Tompkings, Steel Panther, Thees Uhlmann  and Yonaka.

I might honesly think about going there now...

[Ferda]

Best RaR/RiP lineup in ages. I am very happy with that, nevermind KOL 😉

Do you camp? Is the camp any cleaner in the last few years, I've been there in 2016 and that's mainly the reason I didn't want to go back. It was really disgusting by the 3rd day and I've camped all around Europe.

I hate that stupid drinking game with a ball and a can of beer in the middle of two groups.
