Bands I want to see at Wacken and Bloodstock:
3 Inches Of Blood, Airbourne, Alestorm, At The Gates, Avantasia, Carcass, Exodus, Gorerotted, Gorgoroth, Iron Maiden, Kreator, Obituary, Sonata Arctica, Warbringer, Evile, Helloween, Dimmu Borgir, Iced Earth, Eluveitie, Kataklysm, Overkill, Swallow The Sun. (22 Bands)

Bands I'd want to see at Graspop:
Kiss, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Whitesnake, Def Leppard, Iced Earth, Saxon, Morbid Angel, Sonata Arctica, At The Gates, Testament, Obituary, Yngwie Malmsteen, Nile, Forbiddon, Arch Enemy, Smyphony X, Behemoth, Firewind, Alestorm, Korpiklaani, Rose Tattoo. (23 Bands)


So not only have I paid twice as much to see less bands, but the bands are of much higher quality at Graspop. I'm rather annoyed.

Graspop always seems to be the festival I'd like to go to the most. I can't really be 'ersed' going all the way to Belgium just to pay two quid for a Fanta though.

Hellfest and Graspop are pretty mental this year. But I think you'd be hard pushed to beat the Wacken atomsphere loveliness.

Saul has a point but i am so annoyed that JP are not playing.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

To be honest, that's all I'm really crying about. I really want to see Judas Priest at a festival.

I refer you to my MSN conclusions!

This would certainly rule, although I hadn't planned to make any fest trips this year...

I can tell you now that it's one of the best things you could ever imagine. Gods of Metal 2004 was an unbelievable maument of my life.

I really want to go to Graspop this year I have decided. I really really do. Hopefully it won't ever sell out and I'll have money one day.
