    THE (semi) DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO GETTING TO WACKEN

    From the Itzhoe train station directly to the Campground A Entrance... 30 Euros. We got to Itzhoe around 8:30 PM Wednesday. It was a lot easier to grab a cab than to wait in line for the buses. As far as trying to get to and from our camp. We walked in to campground A and immediately took a...

    Did anybody notice that drunk germans can only speak english?

    That's what one of the guys said. He apologized for not speaking "perfectly". I said "Believe me, you probably speak better English than 90% of Americans." He thanked me. He truly was an "old soul" for one so young. Once again - I have to say I'm in love with Germany now. Wish I had...

    Did anybody notice that drunk germans can only speak english?

    Hah! Long story I guess - but the short of is it's been 18 year this coming Tuesday. :D I rather enjoy it. You can remind people what happened the night before. We saw one naked dude - in the festival/food area. Well I guess he wasn't totally naked 'cause he had shoes on. LOL!!

    Did anybody notice that drunk germans can only speak english?

    lol. Actually we pretty much only met Germans with a few Swedes in the mix. Everyone spoke English on one level or another ... and one of the German guys said that he "loved speaking English" and "loved America". Crazy boy. lol. I think it's just the intrigue of hearing/speaking another...

    Questionary

    Mood: Pensive. Quiet. Weather: Stellar! Sunny with a cool sea breeze coming in the windows. Music: Quiet house at the moment. Last music played Loreena McKennitt (shuffling all albums on my iPod) Current favourite album: Gabriel Roth - "new age" stuff. Goes with my mood I guess...

    Wieviel Geld habt ihr ausgegeben?

    We came from the states (via Switzerland) so I won't even include that nor will I include our Eurail tx for Switzerland & Germany. (Which was a big time saver!) At the festival specifically - Ticket at Wacken price (got that before the flight etc) Cab to and from Itzhoe (thanks to some...

    The big international board meeting!

    Looks like a good time had by all! Damn. Isn't it ironic that somehow Slayerofrage posted around the same time we did and we didn't A) get on the list B) we didn't make the gathering. :( We were at the center entrance on the left. We were there around 3:15. I was had an an umbrella with...

    Wacken with an injury?

    WHOA! Wonder if it was the guy we saw outside at The Cult show in Boston. I think it's great people don't let things get in their way. We ski. I've seen people with one leg, blind people etc. \m/ And Turkish - broken collar bones (for me anyway when I had one) was a lot easier to deal...

    First Time at Wacken! What should I bring?

    :D Well, as I said - you probably speak better English that a lot of Americans. And you speak a lot more English than I do German or any other language for that matter. I know a bit of French, Spanish, & Italian - but not enough to converse.

    First Time at Wacken! What should I bring?

    As I say to most people who speak English as a second language - you probably speak better than 85% of Americans. :D There is a product here in the states that is called "Liquid Bandaid". A friend of mine who is a nurse has suggested we bring some. It completely seals the wound and no...

    First Time at Wacken! What should I bring?

    :D Probably not. I'm sure they see more interesting items in suitcases. lol! Yeh, we're camping - so the small flashlight would be good - to look for the misplaced toilet paper. :D I had hoped to avoid dragging a tent over so I ordered one from the site. (and plan on leaving it in...

    First Time at Wacken! What should I bring?

    LOL! Then perhaps a very small "pen-light" type of flashlight. Toilet paper can be QUITE important! :D I can imagine the x-ray at the airport now of our suitcases (which we're leaving at friends in Switzerland whilst we travel for metal!)... "these people travel with their own toilet...

    First Time at Wacken! What should I bring?

    I've been keeping an eye on the weather over there. Thanks Kate! Good to know. On one thread someone said "bring a flashlight as it can be quite dark walking back to your camp area".

    THE (semi) DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO GETTING TO WACKEN

    The resourceful one that I am (and map geek and always need to know where I"m going) I looked at the Holiday Inn in the Altona district - "close to the Altona train station" and it says "Only 12 kilometers from the airport". According to the map I have it's southwest of Altona.

    THE (semi) DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO GETTING TO WACKEN

    Can you believe we received everything within a week!! So we'll end up carrying it all with us. Ugh. But I can't complain - they are making orders for how many people...a-bazillion - so we'll make do. And yes, we're coming from the states. \m/ No - the "info point/wristband" area is...
