De afgelopen weken is het behoorlijk los gegaan met touraankondigingen, line-ups van festivals In Europa (Primavera, Novarock, Rock am Ring/Rock im Park) en daarbuiten (Coachella). Van veel namen weten we nu dat ze onderweg zijn volgend jaar lente/zomer, wat de kansen voor RW doet stijgen. Soms is een touraankondiging gelijk fataal (denk aan de System of a Down-domper).
De nieuwe lijst bevat dus de nodige stijgers en nieuwe namen, veel daarvan zullen uiteindelijk op andere festivals (Graspop, Lokerse Feesten, Live is live, de losse Werchter evenementen) belanden. Voorlopig kunnen we nog dromen. Er gaat veel meer duidelijk worden als de festivals rondom RW met hun line-ups komen (Roskilde, Mad Cool, DTRH, NOS alive, Open'er, Main Square).
Wijzigingen en nieuwe namen ten opzichte van de vorige lijst staan in vet.
