I need Wacken 2014 friends!

[Revalon]

Which reminds me, I'm looking for a companion to travel with me with the Metal Train. Free ride included. Departure from Cologne.

If my girlfriend would not kill me if I travelled by the train with someone else while she drives the car alone, I would be all game

Hey, if you have money and means, I'd book if I really wanted a space in a campsite near the arena. The people on the forum are really welcoming so hopefully finding companions won't be too difficult for you.

Money isn't the issue, as such... just that I'm a bit reluctant to plan it this early in advance. I don't know if I'd end up camping with my Swedish friends who are driving down.

If you have the chance to camp with friends it may be a better experience for you. I don't think the hire tents will sell out this soon.

That can easilly be arranged if you talk it through.
And if they're driving, why not ask if they can bring a tent for you? That way, you're safe, and don't have to bring one on the plane, avoiding extra weight & costs!

I you speak German I would highly recommend this for a good time! Not so much if you don't understand the language but if so then if it's an option you should DO IT! And also Quark is a cool guy so all the more reason

It's never too early Honestly, I started planning in August 2012 for last Wacken. Of course I had 3 weeks of trip to fill in as well as all the stuff for WoA.

Why not rent a big tent and have your friends join you? I guess it depends what kind of person you are. If you like to party all night and drink and don't mind being kept awake by drunken people then the normal campsites are fine.

Personally I'm old. I was there to enjoy the concerts and the atmosphere and not to be listening to drunk kids all night The rental tents were great - you can request a site on the edge of the area which is the most quiet place..relatively speaking because you aren't really going to get 'that' quiet. It's also closest to the infield and the flush toilets which means unless you have to go in the middle of the night you won't have to deal with the dixies

My guess: the RtR tents are placed on A (B), and his friends were DRIVING if I read it correctly. So... they can't get there with their car(s).

But that's my guess.

You can get a parking place I thought? and yes the tents were at B area right next to the entry to the infield. Awesome location actually!

I don't like being bothered by drunken people. I'm an old person too, I guess. :\

I don't have any concept of A and B areas. Could you please explain?

That's the plan. If they drive down, they'll get a couple of big tents and we can all camp in those but if they don't drive down, i'll need my own tent. :S

(and they seem to be in no hurry to decide, there's 10 months to go still)
