Jo.

Pro:
Not that big. Max 10.000 people. Nice overview, 2 stages, but one is in a tent, for smaller bands, most black/death metal, no crashes, as the 2 stages are not (always) simultaniously., reasonable price. (but €3 for a .3l. is a bit too much, but then again, it's apparently a normal price)
It is an airport, we were close to the airport strip. Meaning if heavy rain, your feet are relatively dry, du to the concrete.

Con:
The trip with public transportation is a bit hazardous. The nearest railway station is Mühlhausen (Thür), and it's all in 2 hours interval. The shuttle runs every 2 hours. (so do the trains actually, but from more than 2 directions, most Erfurt (Hbf))
Nearest village is Schlottheim, but you need a vehicle to get there, or a shuttle bus.
And if you can't have a reserved spot, you're pretty far from the stage. It is after all an AIRPORT!
And... apart from the tent, there is NO SHADUW! With the heat from the last weeks, a BIG problem for me.
And sometimes the sound is better at the camping, than on the festival area.

But I plan to go there again, be it in 2 years. (no, no 2 festivals after one other! :uff: )

And I'm still tired from wacken haha. I'm glad I'm not doing 3 festivals in a row anymore.
2 was a limit. But that is something I willl keep in mind for next year!
One of the reasons I won't be in Schlottheim next year. Nor in Headbangers. Even if it meant a very short trip to Wacken!
This year, bweh, I made a mistake. I didn't 'notice Graspop and Hörnerfest after each other.
And now Metal Mean after PSOA! But thank goodness, Méan is just one day. (and sold out, most likely)
