Ok, someone please tell me what the deal is with Sodom not playing for the last five years (including this). There's something fishy about this.
Seriously. They finally did their first tour of the US back in January. If they deign to grace us with their presence, they have no excuse to avoid Wacken.
damn right they'll be back. and hopefully AGAIN with Finntroll. I loved how all the Finntroll fans cleared out after their set and left more room for me to circle pit to "Ausgebombt."
Again, it makes no sense, since they repeatedly play Sweden Rock and Gates of Metal, and Onkel Tom inevitably (save for this year, apparently) is omnipresent on all the W:O:A stages all days of the festival. I think it was monochrom who stated that at some point in the festival's history, it was impossible to go anywhere without bumping into Mr. Angelripper, Esq.
Mr Angelripper normally parks himself in the drinking tent in the press lounge and does not leave until the end of the festival/except for haunting the stages and -I assume- going to the toilet. He can also ingest ridiculous amounts of beer and whiskey- at the same time.
