thats true, i'm happy enough, planned it out already so im seeing most of the bands im looking forward to.
just with Gpop having such a great lineup i'd have liked to see a few of those bands make it onto WOA.

Yeah can understand the thought I'm still really looking forward to it but the lineup isn't as good as it has been including when I last went (06) and I'm going Graspop as well so I don't mind them having different bands

nice one!
cavalera conspiracy should be good, wonder if they'll do a belfast date on tour? soulfly sold out the spring and airbrake last time, could make it worth their while!

yup, have to see UK tours are never exactly predictable on where bands decide to play

Very true, nothing worse than a European tour with just the one UK show in London either

aye that sucks, it sells out within days too if its anyone decent.
the extent of our neglect is that if you look in any of the magazines like terroriser, metal hammer or whatever and go to where the tour posters are advertised, belfast and dublin are 99% never mentioned. then the bands wonder why when they do play here nobody goes??!

ah yeah, not that I read any of the metal magazine, but yeah the promo side of UK metal is almost always fairly poor.

yer just right, kerrang is useless apart from the odd interview, metal hammer has its moments with subterreanea and the odd good interview but by and large the mainstream publications are shite.
what all bands you checking out at wacken this year dude?

Erm... be a fairly long list I do tend to make sure to see as much as I can then party hard after!
but...
airbourne, alestorm (always a fucking laugh), at the gates, avantasia (really hoping for some old stuff hate the new commercial releases), Carcass, Bodom, Dream Of An Opium Eater, Ensiferum, Exodus, Maiden, Kamelot, Lordi (oh god but it should be a laugh) Mortal Sin, Opeth, Soilwork, Sonata
Think that's the majority, not so into the Death/Black scene personally so not a lot of that, not that there's so much this year.
