Dear Metalheads, The next big name in the billing of the W:O:A 2009 is Heaven And Hell! Heaven... Weiterlesen...
I think its a really good headliner. Looking forward to it Now I want the extreme bands to be confirmed. Where are they? Its really few so far
Heaven and Hell is a biiiig win. P.S. - does no fuckin' pussybands mean that Nashville Pussy can't play because they were great last year?
I mean Bullet For My Valentine, Callejon,, Lacuna Coil and those shitty bands that doesnt belong on a metal festival. Nashville Pussy would be a great booking. Like you said: They were great last year
Pretty much what I've been saying. Lets get some 'name' extreme bands on there now. After which the lineup will start to look up to its usual standard.
where has Saxon confirmed itself?? It would be great to see them^^ I think bands like BFMV, Callejon and Lacuna Coil have the right to exist on a Metal Festival like Wacken, who wants to have a mix of all Metalsubgenre and Genre who stands near to Metal, but I think up to now (!) we have to much of them in the lineup, while ExtremeMetal Bands are still missing. (sry for school english)
Biff has announced a "Riff" competition on the Saxon website offering 2 free festival ticketsfor a festival that Saxon are playing. One of thefestivals he mentions is Wacken. There is also a comment from one of te Mods on the Saxon forum which responds to a question about Wacken which says "I don't know where you got this from but it is looking very promising ".

Heaven & Hell being added is awesome! Bands I'd still like to see get added are: VENOM MASTODON and since they like to add a few Rock bands on there, why not Zeke or Peterpan Speedrock. That'd cap off the Motorhead quota of bands nicely.
I have seen Nashville Pussy live a few times in UK and loved them I thought they where terrible at Wacken though, I was embarrased for the singer too Blaine, if he'd have said "steamhammer spv i wanna have your babies!" or something one more time I'd have walked off... infact i think i did!!!! He was verbally sucking up to the record label so much it was embarrasing, I dont give a damn what label a bands on, just play your songs and get off the stage! Unless you have something interesting / funny to say... ie; Napalm Death in 2007 "Nazi punks fuck off" speech. Or the drunken talk we al know Rob Flynn of Machine Head will give us!
