Rock Am Ring 2007

[poppacherry86]

Hey, i couldnt find any info on the rock am ring festival in the forums. I was wondering if anyone has been to it and what their experience was like.
im from california and was looking to go this next year but there's certain information i cant seem to get ahold of like how to get from the frankfurt airport to the nurburgring race track, where i can purchase tickets in english (the official site is in german), and any other info. Rumors about possible bands or the dates it'll be? How many days will it go on? Anything is appreciated.

I've never been to the festival, because its 90% Pop-Music. I prefer the racing events, like the 24 hours race. - Fantastic atmosphere.

From Frankfurt, there is a direct train-connection to Koblenz...

yeah, i've been there four times. it's 85% pop/rock-oriented, BUT they have a alternastage, where i've seen bands like messuggah, killswitch, mastodon, dillinger and others playing the same day, with, like a thousand people there. so it's cool, though there are about 140'000 visitors, most of them go to the big scenes…

just one advice though: don't play in drinkin' games with germans - you'll loose!!! uke:
