Me too. But not that hot as it is here now. The Kempen/Campines (GMM area) is even worse. 34°C today! :eek:

I still have to check wetter.com/de for the weather in Brande-Hörnerkirchen!

Oh good, so summer has actually arrived over there :D
Brande-Hörnerkirchen was bloody HOT, even by my standards last year (in the day time, I was freezing at night :p). I should have brought more shorts with pockets :o

True, but it'll cost you a fortune if you buy everything infield.
So.. the easiest things you can carry without the glass problem is canned beer. And sodas in platic bottles. (and tetra packs etc. )
Nothing you would want to put strong alc. beverages in. I don't even like beer in PET bottles! :eek:

We could only dream of paying the price they charge for Jäger in the festival supermarkets in this country, especially at festivals! A typical Australian festival punter might get drunk before arriving, pay the equivalent of €6+ for a "watered-down beer in a [disposable] plastic cup", and whinge about paying so much for beer, but would rather pay the money to stay drunk. For mixers it'd be even more.

I don't even really like most beers, but getting drunk on beer is fun every once in a while :D

But for us are expensive. €3.50 for a 0.4l beer in plastic, is, to our standards, expensive. It's just a matter of what you're used to.
Though Belgium's Graspop is more expensive per liter. (€2.50/0.25)
Easy calculation:
Graspop: 10€/liter
Wacken: 8.75€/liter

Edit Piaf zegt: And Wacken sells liter cups for €7.

I guess if we stay for long enough we'd be saying the same thing :p Pretty sure by the time I got around to visiting Careo and drinking actual proper nice beer, I was thinking "€3.50 for 0.5l? THAT'S AN OUTRAGE!" Then I come back home and I'm lucky to pay that for 375mL during happy hour for an Australian brew :(
