Still 22 names to go though; They’ll still add at least 1 or 2 big ones.
Werchter has propably the largest collection of big names in the whole world, but it’s also very commercial and not very cosy.
And with only 2 stages, there’s only two options: or they’ll put sigur ros on main stage before radiohead, so in broad daylight, or they’ll put them in the marquee during radiohead, meaning you get to see only one of the two…
