why is it more expensive to go to Karlsruhe by train than to Ulm, even though Karlsruhe is way closer

I will think about it while I get my coffee.

because people are weird.

german trains are kinda weird, it is really expensive to go to germany spontaneously.. that is why I always plan ahead, but the cheap tickets to Karlsruhe are already sold out

Pardon me...Every band before the " headliner" I call a warm up band. The line up would have been ok if it had started a little earlier. Carcass didn't go on until 11:30 !! That's bullshit.
Like you said everybody was there for them. They could have played alone and still sold out. It is a little much to expect people to stand around a club for 7 hours.

oh and sometimes I don't even go for the headliner, I'll go for one of your so-called warm-up bands.
I don't care what slot they're in, besides the fact that it's nice to see the bands you want to see play longer.

that's too bad then.

then just come later...

If they posted the set times on line I would. The problem is, they say Doors open at 6pm. That doesn't mean the first band will go on then.
It is a small complaint I know, but it gets annoying.
Even Motorhead 2 weeks ago. They had 2 bands pull of the tour and they still didn't go on untill 10. That is not late , but I figured they would be early since they were short 2 bands.

opening bands have always been called " warm up" bands. At least we call them that. I have left before the headliner as well, little miss smarty pants.

yea true
although Rotten Sound started right at 7pm, when the show was supposed to start, sooo it was pretty much on schedule.
but it's hard to plan the exact set times, because you never know how long it'll take for each individual band to set up. like Carcass took nearly half an hour plus some might play a little longer or shorter than they were supposed to.

I only call the first band the opener though, and MAYBE the second. not five
