Why do you care, you wont go, faggot

Wacken has become worse. It just sucks, it's not a cool metal party from fans for fans anymore. Loud Coca Cola and other advertisings on the huge screens, a very high ticket-price.

Bands are not the reason for me to visit festivals, I go because I want to have this "metal-festival-feeling". That's imo impossible with min. 80.000 people around. Wacken has become a mainstream festival with mainstream people, there's no metal-feeling at all.

Fans who are new to the whole festival-thing might be pleased or even think "the more people, the better". For me, 2008 will be the first year without Wacken since 6 years.

I know that some users on this board liked 2007 (perhaps even more because they had to travel a long way). I hated 2007. So many people, so many idiots.

I agree with you 1000000000000%

I might go. I'm contemplating it very seriously. Needs more epic bands though.

 

[Swabs]

I'm going, ordered my ticket already

Imo, the bands werent even close to the funnest part of wacken

It would cost me a mini-fortune to go. Travel to and from Germany. Festival tickets, food, travel inside Germany. Who knows what else. Prolly cost me 3000 or more I'd estimate I'll double check. Give me a minute.

But as I said, I am seriously contemplating going.

I don't drink or piss on people's tents so I NEED BANDS

 

[the phenom]

I'm going, ordered my ticket already

Lucky fuck.

 

[pippignomie]

I wish I could afford to go

 

[Undefined]

3-day-ticket cost = $137
Roundtrip Ticket to Hamburg, Germany = approx $1180
6 day car rental = $290
Food/Other budget = $250 (at most)

= $1857

(Unless I'm forgetting something else...)

This means I could go if I saved up, but needs moar good bands though.

 

[Knarfi]

As i said, car rental = instant fail

 

[Draznog]

I'm going so i will probley see all you wackoff's there.

I didn't know my little translating bitchbot was picking me up in Hamburg.

I agree with you 1000000000000%

like you've been there

anyway, yeah last year there were to many people.
but wacken stays wacken and I still like it and will go again next year anyway
I will order my ticket in 2 weeks, when I've got the money

oh yeah and btw, bands are the less important thing at wacken (exept for some)
fun ftw

 

[Knarfi]

@Joezilla; I thought you knew me well enough i'd do anything for some €€€

I don't drink or smoke or do drugs. SO the bands are for me.

 

[ingrid]

yeah I can understand
I mean, there are always some bands I really want to see.
but I spend more time at the camparea then at the festival area (well, this year cause we stood very close and could hear everything at our tent and only had to walk 2 minutes to see it )
but the nights at the tent are the best
but well, indeed, if you don't smoke or drink (I don't do drugs either) it's less fun I guess

 

[Deadly]

sara and i might go since during graspop we probably have exams

 

[ingrid]

that sucks (graspop) I hope I can go
I guess I can, but I"m not sure yet
