Some names confirmed for Werchter 2005 fucking finally

[rodneyscat]

So they've changed back from three to four days after all...

Up until yesterday only Faithless was confirmed. Now they were on my list of 'wanna see groups', so that was nice, but I knew they were coming since November last year and I was getting damn curious by now. Especially because some interesting names started popping up for other festivals that traditionally have matching groups listed.

I checked this morning and yay, an update. Some goodies for completely different reasons: REM, NIN, Chemical Brothers, Elvis Costello, Keane, Rammstein, Ozark Henri and QOTSA. Some I'm curious about because I don't know them (all that well) or haven't got a clue how they'll be live: Tom Mcrae, Soulwax, Pennywise, Audioslave. And enough moments to go grab some lunch or queue for the toilets: Within Temptation, Jamie Cullum... *ducks*

Looks like I'm going again this year.

(I'm still hoping for some names that are up at Pinkpop but not at Werchter (yet) *keeps fingers crossed*)

[edit] (because I know you were all dying to know this) My wishlist going by Pinkpop: The Frames, Bloc Party, The Prodigy, Di-rect (shut up, they're cute) and Beef.

QOTSA!!! I saw them on a lineup for one of the Swiss festivals recently... can't remember which one, though, and these things are always at very inconvenient places for someone who lives so far away from everything anyway... *sigh*

I saw them two years ago at the same festival, and it was a bit of a disappointment then, because they didn't really connect with the audience. It sounded good, but like they might as well have played the cd real loud. I'd expected more of a live feeling you know, more sparkle.

I now know what to expect though, so I think I'll enjoy it more this time, because they were really good.
