awww how fast...I was thinking of attending one of the two: Wacken or Munchen, and I wanted to decide based on your opinions...but it seems I won't have a choice anymore..I knew it would be sold out soon but I cannot confirm anything when there's that much time ahead, as I will be going all the way from Lebanon and will need to apply for a visa (and you're never sure to get it)..I hope I will make my decision before Munchen is sold out too...

I can understand you. I also need to get visa everytime I go to countries of Schengen. But you can buy ticket for Munich show now before it's sold out. If you won't have a chance to go to Germany you can always sell it. I think there will be many people who is interested in buying tickets for that show as it will be sold out soon.

ok, tonight's the night. And I'm just glad I couldn't get a ticket. Here it is raining all day long. That will be a muddy affair this evening.

here another little info: (from german radio NDR info)

they won't play wind of change, because it's too soft for Wacken.

Did anybody find a stream line for watching at least bits and pieces of the Festival?

Hi Lenita,

if you want livestreams of the festival, that's not hard. There are livestreams on ndr.de and zdf Kultur. And with and without moving pictures.

tonight ZDF Kultur will show 4 hours (8 pm - 12 pm) and from 10:50 pm they show 25 minutes of the Scorpions show.

Here's the link to the livestream

The whole Scorpions show will be shown next week on ARTE. And I guess I know someone who will record it and send a DVD to Greece.

Tomorrow will be a livestream from Edguy
