This year I thought I would be able to attend the Wacken Metal festival in Germany... last year it was booked out in March (the festival was in July/August!). Well, this year it seems I won't be luckier:

 Not even half the bands are announced - and it's in 210 days! I don't know if it's Motorhead or just the reputation of the festival (or just the fact that many people buy tickets just for the sake of selling them back on ebay, as it seems to be the case) but it's getting pretty hard to get tickets. Shame.

 Well, maybe I'll go back to the Hellfest, in Clisson, in France.. After all it was pretty good last year...

Not so many bands have been announced so far... some of the ones that have been are alright - stratovarius, epica... MANOWAR!! (come on, they're fun!). We'll see, I hope they will come up with some other good bands.

 Are there any other festivals of that type that are worth it? I heard of bloodstock in the UK... Did anyone went there - is it any good? Or anything else somewhere in europe? :)

 PS: I just discovered that the singer of Heaven and Hell was.. Dio \o/ one good point for hellfest ;)
