– 2 international live acts: Party Arena + all international DJs
Oke, only 5 more main stage acts, but how big wil the main stage artist be? Wil there be head liners with them?
there are two different bands: “Rada” (Ukraine) and “Rada & Ternovnik” (Russia). Here (http://www.sziget.hu/fesztival/programok ) wrote that on Sziget will play ukrainian band Rada. But on the French official site wrote about russian band Rada & Ternovnik.
i think that on Sziget will play ukrainian band. About it also written here (http://www.sziget.hu/festival_english/news/the_next_batch_jared_leto_nina_hagen_calvin_harris_and_many_more.7591.html but before here was also written about Rada & Ternovnik)
My guess is that Toy Dolls, K.I.Z., Lyapis Trubetskoy, Subsonica, Death Valley Screamers and / or Rada & Ternovik will be the opening acts. Faithless, Muse and Iron Maiden are definitely headliners…
This way we should get two more headliners (I think 30stm will be a co-head) and three medium-sized bands.
@chudo_pahan:
You just made my day! I really couldn’t believe that the russian band was set to play on the mainstage! 😉
@chudo_pahan: it’s strange that you can’t find too much reference on the Rada Rada Romanovskaya they mention on the site. Or maybe it’s just that we don’t speak Russian…
@Mellowmaniac: Kasabian could be a co-head, too…
The ukrainian Rada band would definitely fit better! 😉
Concerning co-heads: I think 30stm and Kasabian are 99% co-heads. The Hives, The Specials and Billy Talent could be co-heads. The Specials seem to be co- heads very likeley
Just looking at The Gaslight Anthem’s schedule and they have nothing planned between the 13th & 19th August where they are playing in Germany & Austria, possibly they could be added to the line-up? 😀
Yes, that’ s a possibility…
Chances that Gaslight Anthem will come to Sziget are close to none: They are playing festivals on 11., 13., 14. and 15.08.
Well, you do have 12 and they’re playing every day during that period…
yeah, but TGA won’t travel from Norway to Sziget, and then back to Western part of Germany.
anyway why are these noname bands doing the main stage? this is a joke.
For me this years headliner nr 1 is Muse and headliner no 2 is Kasabian…:)
@wert: stranger things have happened :))
kasabian are playing the same day as muse, there is no way kasabian will be a headliner…
Raised Fist are playing Pukkelpop, might be a (great imo) rumour for this year’s Sziget..
The dutch band zZz ist selfconfirmed for August 13th!
Kasabian will be playing at 8.00pm. According to their MySpace page.
According to the French official site, it’s Rada & Ternovnik, the Russian band – http://www.szigetfestival.com/2009/index.php?id=75&artiste=613
