That's great news! That saves me money from having to travel to NY to see them, though if I'm bored enough it might just end up happening anyways...

thats great.. they were amazing when they played at wacken in 2007.. but i want some black metal band announcements soon.. !!

 

[metal_martin]

Not unexpected considering Biff self-confirmed via his video about the saxon competition over a month ago - but great news nonetheless.

Big Update on Monday, 18h!!

Yes.. in German News , the WOA organizers puts a message about it:
"large update Monday 18.00h" (i think europe time, 11.00h to me )

Perhaps the "large update" will be the bands that everyone knows:

Bring Me the Horizon, Der W, Devildriver, Doro, Gamma Ray, J.B.O , Mambo Kurt, Mägo de Oz , Nervecell, Pain, Rage, Schandmaul, Sonic Syndicate
Subway to Sally, UK Subs.

But also in that message the WOA Organizers says: "we have the only truth that the forums doesn't have"

I really expect a big surprise


---------------------------------------------------------------------
My W:O:A 2009 Request:
Venom ,Tankard, Pestilence (reunion), Wehrmacht (reunion) Voivod, Artillery
Arkona, Thyrfing, Equilibrium, Manegarm, Cor Scorpii
Unleashed, Vader, Hail of Bullets, Arch Enemy

Hope not, I will be extremely disappointed!! But Rage would be nice though...

Like I said in the other thread:

Let's hope all of this (delays, lack of major bands, lack of communication from the Orga, etc) was worth it.

I'm expecting some major bands from all metal genres (doom, black, death, thrash, folk) and not just a bunch of bands like subway to sally or bring me the horizon. A few from this list would be nice:

Manowar
Blind Guardian
Iced Earth
Candlemass
Samael
Immortal
Opeth
Exodus
Onslaught
Kreator
Slayer
Ensiferum
Finntroll
Moonsorrow
Primordial
Dimmu Borgir
Rotting Christ
Arch Enemy
Carcass
Deicide
Anthrax
...

(list based on my personal band preferences but note they are all major bands in their style, i guess they would make the majority pleased)

 

[slayerizer]

all right let's wait till Monday and see what happens....

ME TOO

One quote I cannot forget to mention.

(...) We also see what's happening on the forum!

See if this is true!
As the professional pessimist.....

Dear Metalheads,

we know that we've had you waiting for new announcements for quite a while now. Also we do realize what's happening on our forums.
We can tell you that we're in the final steps of creating the running orders for the WOA 2009. Furthermore we will announce a huge number of bands on Monday 04/06/2009 6 pm.
Thank you for your appreciation and until monday.

Yours

The Wacken Team

I seriously cannot fucking wait until tomorrow! I really hope they don't disappoint! Looking at some of the other festival lineups I'm really hoping the additions to Wacken will reflect them where the more extreme bands are concerned. Damn I'm excited. Please let them not add anymore bullshit

 

[metal_martin]

Nothing short of KISS will do. (Not really expecting KISS - although it may be possible.)

Alestorm would be a bonus. Apart from that, there are enough good bands to make this worthwhile. Tomorrow will, I hope, just be a big bonus.

Manowar would be good, but I'm seeing them at Hellfest. AC/DC and/or Rammstein would be awesome. I would expect Rammstein out of the two because of the 20th Anniversary thing and them being a German band.

 

[Canuck]

I'm pretty sure that if they booked KISS, ACDC or Rammstein I would just give up on the festival... Luckily all of the above are very unlikely to happen

Can't wait till tomorrow!
