First bands confirmed: Immortal and Corvus Corax.

And the first 10.000 tickets are sold out already.

faery · #2 Post by **faery** » 04 Aug 2009 14:11

Which is really ridiculous, the sold-out tickets, but well, probably to be expected.

First 2 bands look promising though

Mackasfour · #3 Post by **Mackasfour** » 04 Aug 2009 14:59

Anyone that gets to go I'll be so freakin' jealous!!!!

The Rider Of Rohan · #4 Post by **The Rider Of Rohan** » 04 Aug 2009 15:03

I don't think it's that rediculous. They made a lot of improvements this year, which are promising for the future. If you knhow that Wacken will definetely sell out, and if you know that you definetely want to go, I see the reason behind buying tickets early. After all: buy it now and you'll pay 110 euro for a ticket and a shirt. Buy it in the next three months, and you'll pay 110 for just the ticket.

Makes sense.

Sentinel · #5 Post by **Sentinel** » 04 Aug 2009 15:17

Wait a week or so before Wacken starts and you´ll get an even cheaper ticket at ebay.

The Rider Of Rohan · #6 Post by **The Rider Of Rohan** » 04 Aug 2009 15:30

Or just go there on wednesday and buy a really cheap ticket there.

Sentinel · #7 Post by **Sentinel** » 04 Aug 2009 16:04

Right, you see there´s no real sense in buying your ticket that early.

corrupted old gnom · #8 Post by **corrupted old gnom** » 04 Aug 2009 19:03

yes, there is - and that's why i got one

Sentinel · #9 Post by **Sentinel** » 04 Aug 2009 21:42

Would you like to explain it to me, then?

corrupted old gnom · #10 Post by **corrupted old gnom** » 04 Aug 2009 22:02

carved in stone -> don't have to care about it anymore
...that's reason enough for me

Sanctuary · #11 Post by **Sanctuary** » 05 Aug 2009 08:46

with immortal alone the billing would be better then in 2009, imho.

and i have to agree with simon, i like to know that its carved in stone and i dont have to care about it anymore

Wicked Child · #12 Post by **Wicked Child** » 06 Aug 2009 14:55

Shouldn't all these threads be on Metal section?

It's really annoying to read about Wacken on Coffee Shop.. Mostly, because I can't goo

Hey, admins! Do something!

Gandalf de Grijze · #13 Post by **Gandalf de Grijze** » 06 Aug 2009 15:17

wacken has always been a sortof semi forum meeting place, so therefor it is posted in here where more people read about it, same goes for a few other festivals like summerbreeze.

last.fm · #14 Post by **Joost** » 06 Aug 2009 19:21

Maybe it should be in the Slaughterhouse, but definitely not in the metal section.

corrupted old gnom · #15 Post by **corrupted old gnom** » 06 Aug 2009 20:05

wish list for 2010:
- judas priest (never seen'em before

)
- alice cooper (everybody has to see that he has countless songs better then poison!)
- heaven's gate (reunion! - their first few records are quite unbeatable)
- eläkeläiset (humppa!)
- wuthering heights (they never tour and their last record is one of the best albums of the last dacade)

Gandalf de Grijze · #16 Post by **Gandalf de Grijze** » 06 Aug 2009 23:49

Cooper heerscht!!!

the priest is good live as well

The Rider Of Rohan · #17 Post by **The Rider Of Rohan** » 07 Aug 2009 01:40

I think they should book both U.D.O. and Accept (with their new singer), put them on different stages at the same time, and see who'll attract the biggest audience.

They all sound quite Metal to my ears

Wacken has always been the major meeting place for the forumers, it's only logical that people post about it here - the threads are always about the forumers and who comes and who doesn't, the bands are a secondary thing

The metal section is not the section to talk about forum meetings. And in this context, Wacken is definitely a forum meeting.

The Rider Of Rohan · #21 Post by **The Rider Of Rohan** » 10 Aug 2009 19:51

Plus, we go to Wacken to drink a lot of coffee. That's why this is a logical place.

Now I get it.

The Rider Of Rohan · #23 Post by **The Rider Of Rohan** » 10 Aug 2009 23:24

See? I knew it couldn't be that hard.

last.fm · #24 Post by **Joost** » 10 Aug 2009 23:34

Coffee? But the last time I went to Wacken, we had a tea party...

Gandalf de Grijze · #25 Post by **Gandalf de Grijze** » 11 Aug 2009 00:07

yeah!! teapahtey rocks!!!

Who knows, after 4 years I might go again...

No one was. Just Joost's imaginary friends and his teddy bear!

Well, last year half the tickets were sold before even a single band was confirmed for the festival...

In comparison, this is much less ridiculous.

Frozen within · #34 Post by **Frozen within** » 11 Aug 2009 20:11

With a strong lineup (for once) I might decide to go again, but it has to be exceptionally interesting to make it worth my while.

The Rider Of Rohan · #35 Post by **The Rider Of Rohan** » 11 Aug 2009 20:53

We trust you'll buy a ticket anyways.

perfectly fine (or at least nothing to complain about)
not that it's been bad before...but things turned out quite well since we last (=first

) met
the short hair aren't that bad, btw - i never miss'em
the first few concerts were odd because of the lack of headbanging-fun...but that's about all

it's nice to see that you guys are at least a bit considering coming to wacken again

No‘am · #40 Post by **No‘am** » 16 Aug 2009 13:40

btw Simoon did you get your memory back from Thursday evening?

corrupted old gnom · #41 Post by **corrupted old gnom** » 16 Aug 2009 19:25

no - but i'm pretty sure i was just sleeping

No‘am · #42 Post by **No‘am** » 17 Aug 2009 15:25

I saw you at the H&H show after Running Wild and it ended around midnight, then the next day people told me you don't remember anything from the day before.

Deliverance · #43 Post by **Deliverance** » 17 Aug 2009 17:32

Hmm,. I paid 130 euro for the normal tickets... so 110 for X-mass would be quite good imo...

and yes, that means I'll be there

The Rider Of Rohan · #44 Post by **The Rider Of Rohan** » 17 Aug 2009 18:44

Ansd then to think I tried to save Simon from insomnia by sharing his bottle of Jack that day.

No‘am · #45 Post by **No‘am** » 17 Aug 2009 19:30

you bought a christmass ticket Barry?
