I like this lineup a lot and I like the Metal Camp lineup as well maybe a little bit better then Wacken but this is my first trip to Europe and my first Festival and we want it to be Wacken. I believe this should be the first European fest done before any others. The Mecca of Metal

 

[agresionpower]

I'm thinking of going, but I still don't know...

I would have to say theres something about the atmosphere at Wacken which puts it above every other festival I've been to so whilst the lineup may not be the greatest this year, still some fantastic bands though.., you'll be guaranteed to have a great time.

 

[lifesadream]

Oh I am not worried at all about having a good time. I know its going to be awesome and there is a lot of bands that I cant wait to see. I have always dreamed of going to Wacken for the whole experience not just the music.

 

[MTL]

Going there as well, definitely. 7th year in a row, and this might become the best of all

 

[DaveAus]

got my tickets for grasspop and Wacken. Haven't been to Europe in summer yet. Flights are booked. Can't wait...
