Well that is sad to hear

But I think it makes sense. It's the type of trip that you should plan and prepare for over a course of time, not a last minute type of thing. Plus the money is always an issue, but if you begin preparing and saving now, you can easily get there nexte year.

yep, exactly.
next year I plan to do something like what Smoo's doing now...
travel to Europe, and hit as many festivals as possible... while visiting people in between.

A great idea. And you will be at a perfect age to do that. You can get your passport started now. Then research which festivals, when and where you'd like to go to and strat plotting your course. Then buy your festival tickets early to lock them in and commit yourself to it.

I am sure that Sipy and Q are sad about you not going this year though.

exactly what I plan to do.
I just have to wait until the dates of the festivals come out... I'm thinking like Graspop, Dong, Sweden Rock, Bloodstock, Wacken of course, and maybe more.
the main problem is, as far as I can see, not only getting the money for it, but figuring out exactly how much I can do with what money I'll have, and in advance.

Good point about the money. The thing is to have as much as you can, you don't need to spend it all, but it's always better to have a cushion. I have been told that Sweden Rock is an excellent festival. Very well organized. Though it's not just a Metal festival, it's Metal and Rock, hard Rck and clasic rock along with a bunch of Metal. Sweden Rock would be the festival I'd like to attend next. Graspop had a good billing this year.
