Logischerwijs zijn de namen voor The Slope wat lastiger te voorspellen dan de wat grotere namen. Toch zijn er 11 van de 24 langsgekomen op het forum. De meerderheid kwam voor ons redelijk uit het niets (wel zo leuk eigenlijk).
Nieuwe aankondigingen van andere festivals in België (Pukkelpop, Dour, Rock Olmen) hebben weer wat gaten geslagen in de lijst voor RW. De spoeling bij de zeer waarschijnlijke namen begint zo behoorlijk dun te worden...
