ANyone from USA going to Wacken 2003?

[konstrukt]

Only 19 bands confirmed and it already look fooking cool!!!

 

[metal71]

right here!

I'm all booked in- plane, hotel, tickets, even rental car.

Coming from Las Vegas, can't wait!

 

[LooseCannon]

I'm getting everything booked after New Year's.Metal71,who did you go through(travel,hotel,etc.)?

 

[Warthog]

Went last year, going next year if it kills me! I'll make a point to fly Old Glory by my tent next year, so we'll have to meet up. Gonna be a fuckin' incredible fest (aren't they all?) for sure!

 

[LooseCannon]

Warthog,we gotta meet.I MIGHT be at the Nuclear Assault show at Jaxx.

 

[konstrukt]

I'll probably go too.

I'll make my descision soon...

I so want to go this year, it looks too cool for a power metal whore like myself!

 

[SheisTheDark]

Yup. Im going! Are there any groups of metal heads from the states meeting up this year?

 

[konstrukt]

We got to do a meet up for metalheads from the USA...

The problem is that the fucking country is so HUGE

Maybe we can meetup at Wacken?

 

[Warthog]

It might be cool if we could arrange something where we all have our flights connect through JFK airport in NYC or Logan in Boston, and meet up for the trip across the water.

Probably would be a nightmare to arrange, but it's a thought!

 

[konstrukt]

Does anyone have flights going through JFK yet? If anyone has anything, post it here and lets all try to get on the same flights!

It would be a nightmare, but it would be so cool to have a bunch of metalheads on the plane together.

 

[monochrom]

No chance that you'll ever organize that - mission impossible!

But there is honour in trying, and even just to let the idea float in the room is valorous indeed. True US Metalheads.

Depending on when you will arrive I can offer a place in Hamburg for you to join up at (is the last part of this sentence even remotely english?) - but I'll be driving over to Wacken (40 Minutes) on Thursday to get more of the party.

Anyway, surprise me and manage to get on the same flight...

 

[Warthog]

It would require booking the NY->Germany leg for everybody all at once, which renders it even more of a pipe dream. I think we have a much better chance of meeting up at Wacken!

I'm not sure what my plans are...I'm still looking into the possibility of getting a summer job overseas.

BTW, I'm working on a webpage for Americans considering the trip to Wacken. It's at http://www.maccusweil.com/wacken It's nowhere near complete, but take a look and if any of you have anything to offer or add, please let me know!! That means all of you!

@mono - technically you're not supposed to end a sentence with a preposition (at, of, in, to, on...) in English, but that's one of those rules no one gives a shit about anymore English has enough rules that everyone breaks as it is...

 

[konstrukt]

At least we can all hang out at monochrom's house!!!

 

[Warthog]

Hey, I'd appreciate a place to crash...and I'll try not to puke on anything, monochrom!

Just spoke to a travel Agent. (not giving up on this pipe dream!!!)

She told me that if we all book a flight together as a group, we can guarantee that we get on the same flight together, AND it will be cheaper.

If people are interested, I can give try and make a travel agent close on this, and if there are enough people we can get a group rate.
