The Wacken Hot Tub (General Chat)

Kinda inconvenient and uncomfortable

yeah. and I always wonder how long that'll work.
I guess once you walk on solid ground it'll rip up quit fast.
And I need to get back to my tent to at some point

 

[Milkie]

yeah.

remember how deep we sunk into the mud during TSO at the first night, is was crazy deep.

I don't really remember how it was during any specific band but I just remember the last two years it's been quite bad like that Sinking in the mud

Yup, so you should carry a lot of bags with you and that's not really nice D:

 

[Milkie]

Should make the food... But I feel lazy

 

[TheToecutter]

Bit too early to worry about how the weather will be when we go, yes, but defo not too early to worry about how it'll be few weeks before...

Yeah I never thought about it that way

 

[Milkie]

Yeah I never thought about it that way

Yeah Because for example last year, it rained a lot before Wacken so that's why it went so bad so fast

 

[TheToecutter]

Ah OK I never realised that's what happened last year. I'll be checking the weather daily in the next couple of weeks then!

so that would bring a new problem, because I don't want to wear my rainboots on the dry festival ground, because they'll hurt my feet after a while.
But I also don't want to walk through the very deep mud with my normal shoes.

Just buy yourself a pair of gore tex boots, I had no problem last year with the mud

They're so expensive

you have vacation you're allowed to be lazy.

there wasn't a lot of rain during the festival itself, only a few showers in the morning if I remember correctly.

Are gore tex boots worth the investment? Do they keep your feet totally dry?

 

[StrungOut84]

They're so expensive

I couldn't tell It's part of my kit at work, but how much does it cost?

I don't know the price, but IMO If someone is going to multiple fest or even just Wacken every year it would be worth the investment.
i was walking with mine in mud/water all day and my feet were always dry
