Last Band confirmed and new Running Order

[moshmonkey666]

.

i didnt think the running order could have got any worse but my God they did rightly fuck everything up! cant see half the bands i wanna see and there is so much shite on in the middle of the day!

 

[leigonX]

the norther/turisas clash really is upsetting

 

[Kate McGee]

I'll have to spend half of the Friday and the whole Saturday in front of the stages...no time left for drinking...and just one clash: Falconer/Turbonegro...which is really okay...very different bands and so on...I'll just go to Falconer with the expectation that I won't like them after all and then try to find my friends watching Turbonegro...
But I won't have any time for sitting down, relaxing and/or drinking...





Ah.........and be sure to watch the Forum Band right now just 20 minutes on Saturday but we hope this is just a mistake as it was 30 minutes on Thursday...until yesterday...

The news about Sabbat made my day. This truly will be a thrashathon.

A shame that I'll miss Turisas (putting them in the tent, are they mental? it'll be like Finntroll in '05), but Destruction come first.

WHAT THE ...... ???

I'm really angry about thoses changes...

1349 - CC (What were they thinking???)
Turisas - Norther (I really REALLY hope theyll changes this)
Immortal - Moonsorrow (It's even worst now)

For the good parts, the add of Sabbat really made my day. Same thing about Turisas but I just cant believe they find a way to made them clash with Norther.. As for the rest of the RO, I really like the fact that most of the bands are less overlapping. Which bring me to this question...

Its my first Wacken festival and I'm wondering if there are peoples who watch the half of one gig, then move to another stage to catch the half of another band because both are playing at the same time??? I think ill be doing this all day long but the negative point about this is that I will always be really far from the stage
Oh and another question... How is the WET Stage? Is it really small? Cause I have the impression with all thoses bands playing inside, the tent will be really full for a couple of gig.

See you in Wacken!!!

In my opinion, it's not worth skipping between sets, especially now that they've moved the Party stage. It's not so easy to get close once a band has already started. I'd recommend picking your favourite band and sticking with them.

As for the Wet stage, if it's the same size it was last time, I think it's pretty daft to put on some of the bands that they have in there. Particularly Turisas - it can get really rammed in there. That's why I'm choosing against going to see Immortal, because of the awesome run of bands on the Wet stage on Saturday night. Make sure I can get in there.

Sabbat --> Yes!!
No more clash between Destruction and Swallow the Sun --> Yes!!!
Only a pity of the many gaps in the program. As it was before you could still go to the Wetstage for 15 minutes during the changeovers. That costs me Benedictum, Týr and Fastway, but overall I'm quite satisfied.

Fucking clash between Cannibal and 1349, and between Immortal/Moonsorrow!!!

They said the WET tent was going to be larger than last year.

 

[gjallarhorn]

I totally agree. The WET stage is crammed with bands on Saturday that should be playing the open air stages. In 2005 (or was it 2004?) Turisas played the Party Stage in the night and now they're put on the tentstage with a slot that even manages to clash with a number of bands, that many of their fans would appreciate to see too??? It just doesn't make sense to me. Even if the tent would be bigger this year, it's still on the side and there are bands on the Party Stage whose slot the bands like Moonsorrow, Turisas, etc. would clearly deserve.

That's good news. I remember it being a right bastard to get in whilst Suidakra were playing in '05.

 

[Samoth]

Fucking clash between Cannibal and 1349, and between Immortal/Moonsorrow!!!

Indeed...

 

[Random_dude_667]

Im upset with a few clashes:
-Turisas and Destruction (I choose Destruction)
-Falconer and Sabbat (I choose Falconer)
-Immortal and Municipal Waste (dunno what to choose, probably skip between I imagine)

 

[MTL]

I though that was the last band. Apparently not...

OverKill are playing on Thursday!

It says on www.wreckingcrew.com (the official OverKill site)

 

[Dark One]

Wow, this is a really interesting development with Overkill - I wonder if anyone had to drop out since the last announcement (Sabbat) was stated as the "final band".

Very interesting indeed but thumbs up all the way for Overkill!!!!
