...because they could have had a really cool small metal band instead?

a lot of people like "minor" metal bands that would kill to play wacken and would fit right in. Instead they can rock out to cover songs.... great...

i know it is not my preferred kind of bands too.. but i mean if there were 10-15 tribute bands it would be too much.. but just for a band, i think that you (and me) could drink a beer with a friend, listen to another band, take a look to wackinger or to the market, have a nap, eat an hot-dog :D

the most important thing should be confirming at least another top-act..

and I think it's a bit poor myself. People that want to listen to AC/DC songs would probably die for seeing the real AC/DC. Don't see why you should listen to the songs by a coverband. It's just wrong somehow

Only thing I could respect a coverband is if they make a totally new style out of it. But since they're still playing at a metalfestival I guess they'll just play it the same

I just think it must be disappointing to listen to some of your favourite songs played by a different band... I wouldn't like to listen to a coverband of a band that I like...

I'd normally agree, but recently happened to see The Australian Pink Floyd and they were fucking great. But then, there's no way of ever really seeing pink floyd live anymore....

Pink floyd would have been miles better I assume, I probably would have soiled myself.

...and I wouldn't want them(the coverband) to play a festival. Even if it's a small slot.. small slots are made for small bands. I'm just pissed off because every slot they fill with a band like that it could have been a small band with original songs getting their first big break...


....maybe I'm just romanticising the whole thing...

I can understand it anyways. Though the coverband might have some great talent too. But possibly only in playing and not composing... dunno
