I know what you mean, and I thought the same thing today. I've always said I'll go do this and I'll go see that and I hate it.

The only thing I need to worry about is my house (which I rent so it's fine, just breaking the lease I'm concerned about.. and as for mortgage before I'm considering buying this year cause I'm tired of paying dead rent), anyway I just stress about my beautiful kittens, my tenancy and my debts. The thing is though I've been wanting to do this for years so I had a big long talk to my boyfriend today and he said if I can organise everything before June we'll do it.

Fuckin AWESOME. I just need someone to take on my lease, look after my kittens and look after my stuff. So long as that's all out of the way I have no worries.

I'm wanting to travel to loads of places, I want to be o/s for at least 12 months so I'll be hitting you all up for advice.

I'm not backpacking either, I want to set up camp in some countries for a good few months at least and I'd definitely be needing to work while I'm adventuring. I'm so excited, I've been planning all night! I hope it all comes together. I might be at Graspop this year mafuckas! Perhaps Wacken too although the lineup doesn't appeal to me so much. Anyhoo.. YAY!

I cant account for Graspop, but at Wacken you can literally watch no bands the whole weekend and still have a great time. Thats why i keep on going back, because of the atmosphere

charlie · Post by **charlie** » Mon Apr 07, 2008 2:44 pm

Fuck sake Wacken, get some better bands on the bil

Plausible for testament to be confirmed?

not likely, they will probably be on tour with H&H, JP, and Motorhead during this time in North America.

The organizers do need to pull at least 5 more "big" bands out of the bag though. The Castle fest in Serbia just confirmed Amon Amarth, Morbid Angel and Symphony X. SX at Wacken would rule. Cheese to the bone.

And every other festival still seems to be booking Meshuggah except Wacken

Watw-Drums · Post by **Watw-Drums** » Fri Apr 11, 2008 11:09 am

Stam1na were just confirmed. Personally dont know them

morgbite · Post by **morgbite** » Fri Apr 11, 2008 3:28 pm

Fuck sake. Amon amarth put out a thing saying " 2 new festivals confirmed" I was like SWEET one of em's got to be wacken. But NO

whitemike · Post by **whitemike** » Fri Apr 11, 2008 4:05 pm

I'm quite glad this is to be my last Wacken. It's getting too shabby.

BMFOhio · Post by **BMFOhio** » Fri Apr 11, 2008 4:41 pm

Who are all of these lame-name bands that they keep confirming?? No way bloke!!!

whitemike · Post by **whitemike** » Sat Apr 12, 2008 3:21 am

I think they are stocking fillers to be honest. Since it's sold out I doubt they're trying whatsoever to get anyone decent.

charlie · Post by **charlie** » Sat Apr 12, 2008 10:39 am

I'm confident we'll get a few more decent bands. Fucking hope so anyway.

charlie · Post by **charlie** » Tue Apr 15, 2008 1:40 pm

Potential running order is up:

http://www.wacken.com/uploads/media/RUN ... R_2008.pdf

Im pleased to see that Maiden are playing on the thursday. That will be a cool way to kick stuff off. Same goes for Airbourne. Also great to see that Opeth have an evening slot this year and Gorgoroth in the 2-3 slot is fucking

Things Im not happy about is Watain at midday and Obituary clashing with At the Gates is atrocious organization if you ask me. Why put 2 death metal bands on at the same time. They must know that everyone will want to see both bands.

morgbite · Post by **morgbite** » Tue Apr 15, 2008 2:14 pm

Watain at Midday

fucking hell. it's going to be shit. Obituary and At the gates on at the same time?! wacken kneeds to sort its shit out.

whitemike · Post by **whitemike** » Tue Apr 15, 2008 3:28 pm

I saw the running order about 10minutes ago before I came in and thought the exact same what's been said.

Hopefully they'll change the clash between Obituary and At The Gates, because they are 2 bands I want to see the whole sets of, not waste time between them crawling to another stage. Fuckin gay.

Watain at midday as fuckin dumb, but I can cope with it. But Grave on at 11am... fuck sake.

Also, 1 and half hours of fuckin Nightwish...

Fucking yes!

I'll probably just watch about 3 songs and leave after i've jacked off over the singer.

whitemike · Post by **whitemike** » Tue Apr 15, 2008 5:37 pm

Haha, yeh she is hot... but she's nowhere near as good as the previous one. She makes Nightwish sound like a fuckin Karaoke band or something.

Watw-Drums · Post by **Watw-Drums** » Tue Apr 15, 2008 7:48 pm

Lauren Harris just confirmed.....

Now apparently word is, shes hot.

charlie · Post by **charlie** » Wed Apr 16, 2008 2:16 pm

Holy Moses and Mortal Sin confirmed.

yeah, she can't do the operatic stuff atall.

whitemike · Post by **whitemike** » Wed Apr 16, 2008 2:43 pm

The running order's been amended somewhat. Now At The Gates and Carcass aren't on at the same time thank FUCK.

But Obituary on the fuckin party stage? That's almost as annoyin as fuckin Immortal on the same stage last year.

I think you mean

weonlywonfiveone wrote:"Now At The Gates and Obituary aren't on at the same time thank FUCK."

And Obituary are playing on the Party Stage the same time that Hatebreed are playing. I'm fine with this. It will be like when Enslaved played the Party stage last year. It made the set more intense and they stole all of Lacuna Coil's audience.

I know, I think I was even listening to Enslaved at the time.
