Sure! We should do that. I'm really hoping they will come. There are only a few bands announced yet, so it's still possible.

I should be here, but its so far away you can never tell
none of the bands make me jump up for joy so much yet although I would LOVE to see Iron Maiden live. just at Wacken I doubt I'll get anywhere where I can actually see them..
already seen Children Of Bodom - no big deal there, saw Kreator two times this year already, not interested in Sonata Arctica - Avantasia will be good though

still.. I should be there but lets not get too excited about it all yet - it's still a year away

this looks damn well...but it is quite far from my home and the prize of 109 euro seems actually too high for my wallet...and that i dont count the other expenses connected with traveling abroad...

I read on a website somewhere, I can't remember which one, that Akercocke is being added to the Wacken line-up. Well, I really hope that is true.
