It’s actually Hugh Jackman, was mentioned weeks ago on Discord tbf. We’re heading to Brussels weds for a piss up and then head over to Werchter first thing. Need to get Hive tickets too. I'm sure someone suggested Billie for bst recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenG92 Posted Friday at 08:43 AM Report Share Posted Friday at 08:43 AM Really solid first act for us personally. They may be everywhere next year but I'm just not bothered about the other bills they're on overall. Hoping Rock Werchter comes through with something a little different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have the hunch they will pass by Glastonbury but not for a full set. Like they aren't getting paid loads anyway for a full set so it's more about if they want it. That gap between Oslo and Luxembourg is too big not to notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernangel Posted Saturday at 06:46 AM Report Share Posted Saturday at 06:46 AM Chucking The Prodigy into the mix too for this. Olivia Nick Cave Green Day The Prodigy Linkin Park Billie Eilish Metallica Jack White I could also see The Prodigy headlining the marquee but not sure what their size in Belgium is now. I don't think Werchter will get larger than usual acts but I think they'll get more acts of a size they can book will people wanting to do this year.

BenG92 Posted Saturday at 10:43 AM Report Share Posted Saturday at 10:43 AM Chappell Roan also a strong contender in the pop girly bracket. Primavera have really knocked it out of the park for a specific audience this year with her, Sabrina and Charli. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest a lot of festivals knock it out the park for a particular audience though, you don't book rock bands if you want to the young pop kids.

We are talking about a festival that booked Avril Lavigne, Sum 41 and Dua Lipa has way more grit for her songs. Pink! Is pure pop but she's edgy. Sabrina would look so out of place for Werchter even on a poppier year....I don't think it's someone that will massively appeal to them or they've want or need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohad Posted Saturday at 02:14 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 02:14 PM The new OATW album is crazy good. I know the general opinion here, but damn. I won't mind him headlining (and that would be my 6th show) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParanoidTourist Posted Saturday at 03:56 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 03:56 PM Thom Yorke is currently doing an autumn solo tour in Australia apparently playing loads of Radiohead songs. Would be an awesome headliner for the barn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or perhaps its just a filler until Johnny Greenwood is fully recovered Or perhaps Thom Yorke has the juices ready for a Radiohead reunion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yes, a Radiohead reunion would be the best but I guess the odds are more in favour of Thom solo or the Smile. But I agree: the setlists are amazing for his current tour.

Ohad Posted Saturday at 07:31 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 07:31 PM I git to see the smile in Free Athens last June and was utterly impressed. A solo set with some Radiohead drops would be very welcomed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strudd3rs Posted Saturday at 11:54 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 11:54 PM If they’re available (which they seem to be after being announced by Rock Am Ring) do we think The Prodigy would be at Werchter or Graspop next year? I wonder if Graspop may have tried to get them after the success of having Pendulum this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pendulum would have a lower spot to thus not taking a more likely graspop higher band away like Prodigy would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karlos12345 Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago I wonder if we can expect NIN here. Them not being on the Primavera lineup could mean they are doing late June/early July fests. Unless they didn’t scrap their rumored plans of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
