So many nice Acts on tour in summer and announced on several festivals. Really hope to find of them on the bill ,soon.
In my view, the discussion here yesterday regarding the lineup was based on the persistent assumption that festivals like Rock Werchter are still defined primarily by their headliners. A variety of factors—such as a generational shift, the rising costs of stadium-level acts, and fundamental changes in how we consume and encounter music—suggest that it is time to rethink how we approach festivals. And if someone passes a scathing judgment on the entire festival based on just 7 out of 100 acts (each of which is, objectively speaking, a very good act in its own right), then perhaps it is time for that individual to reconsider whether Rock Werchter is still the right choice for them.
