I should actually point out to be honest my mention above of Weezer wouldn't be filler. I think Bloc Party would be a great addition but obviously I like a lot of older bands vs new.
Just to make a point too, I'm not saying Werchter haven't just literally booked what's available and been able to but even based on this year with the one kinda poppier day with Dua Lipa, I genuinely would think that Werchter gave the reigns for Saturday and Sunday to a partnership event to curate and collab with or something.
This is also coming from someone who really wanted to grab on to it this year to give it a go and I'm still kinda hoping it pulls through.
If Download though manage to book a top end lineup one day though that's better than Rock Werchter doing it on their big year with the same headline band one of them has booked before and along the lines of band they are used to getting as apposed to the other festival then I've got a few reservations.
No but in general as an overall look the rock in rock werchter is lacking. Whether to my tastes or not, it's still very easy to see the difference between Thursday and Friday vs Saturday and Sunday....it's like two different festivals booked it. That's nothing to do with an individual taste.
Yeah I thight Green Day day at IOW was really really weak, like all the money was spent on them.
Lots of negativity about the lineup, which i know is the rule for modern day festival punters.
On the scene early summer, what would make it less filler in your opinions?
