That's what all pop fans say

Then afterwards, they say "I was there" and attempt to bask in glory

This lineup doesn't excite me too much. Anthrax are good, but they tour North America often. Sabaton is a similar case, though they are definitely the best announcement for me. I can't go anyways, but I'm going to be following the announcements to see how it stacks up.

Also, for whoever said they don't have good lineups anymore, look at 2010 and 2011; both are completely insane lineups. Even this year's lineup was pretty strong, it was only the headliners that were weak.

The size shouldn't be a deterrant. With the exception of Scorpions, I could get as close as I wanted for every band and could see the stage and screens for all of them. For the bands in the Bullhead City Circus (W.E.T./Headbanger Stages) I was either on the rail, or could have been on the rail but chose to stand further back. For the main stages, you could also get extremely close, and probably even get to the rail if you really wanted to.

Wacken would be fun just because of the atmosphere and the stuff they have set up there, but I would much rather go to Hellfest, Party.San and Obscene Extreme before Wacken.

God yes. Party.San this year is unfuckwithable.

You guys have obviously not heard about the series of spoken word gigs in London next month called 'Rockstars Say The Funniest Things' featuring Scott Ian, Duff McKagan and Chris Jericho...
