Do Models Follow Atkins ?

Wacken 2010 - Friday

there my Hot & Spicy Sauce on Thursday not so well liked I had breakfast on Friday again Dutch French fries with cheese sauce. The really interesting

bands have only played in the afternoon, so I've dragged into the tent to Sven Astral Doors thought that would be his music. He is then left for a few songs, because he was very boring. Particularly excited I was not, but I've seen it over.

Later all went to the horsemen that I yes this year have seen it often enough, so I wanted to see Voivod that played simultaneously. I'm already gone after a few seconds, as they were very crap and Jason Newsted apparently no longer be there (at least live? I have subsequently seen their website and this does not really get it). Anyway, I am then to the riders, from the side I was even very far forward. Musically, no difference to the other two appearances this year. They had a kind of mortar here, with which they have shot something into the audience. I had understood that there are superhero costumes, with which the people should then Crowd surfers. I think people have it in rather than plugged it to attract, at least I have not seen it. But someone has surfed in a teddy suit that was very cool, especially because he has it even the Muppet-like moves.




After the riders have played Bosshoss who even made fun of being on the True Metal Stage. Now I've finally seen it after I missed it at the CeBit yes. Unusual band for Wacken, but was really cool. Finally, they have brought several girls from the audience on stage to dance. It was also luckily enough room to participate.



Towards Arch Enemy a hot air balloon is flying just over my head, which is probably the stages have come dangerously close while still Kamelot played. The sound was unfortunately very ... changeable, we suspect that the boxes were not secured enough and are rocked in the wind. In addition, too little playing songs that I did not even. But otherwise a very good performance. Even if the optical Angela Gossow bonus with their increasing age is shrinking more and more.




then I would have liked to see Equilibrium, was a good place for Slayer but more important to me, so I used the time to me kloppen forward. Equilibrium is said to live especially stupid with the new singer. I would have probably liked it anyway, but really great, I found just before the first album and they have been packed on the far too small wacking Stage. So "could" I have to wait on the Slayer on the stage next door look Grave Digger . There's a triumvirate of boring, over-priced German Power Metal Bands (Saxon, Running Wild, Grave Digger) and Grave Digger are the worst. And I thought at first that it might be better than me, opening a whole crew same bagpipe player came on stage and said something to the best of Scottish given. I love bagpipes. The band then announced to play some music for the anniversary complete. A clear case of overconfidence, so great to hear it completely, most things on the album that is definitely not something boring ... people have been sitting most of the time and have only risen, as Dorothy was a guest singer on the stage (and are then quickly put back because it was bored with her too). Doro in a black, fine dress, a strange sight: D The only song that made fun was rebellion. Van Canto singing were to be extracted as a few seconds intro, Hansi of Blind Guardian was the guest singer (in civil, to on a kilt) and there were bagpipes again.



highlight of the day were clearly Slayer . Although a very routine performance, but these are just Slayer. Come on stage, make their thing and leave. Say there was little, but it has also served perfectly when Tom Araya has grinned for a few seconds into the audience. And if Slayer ask "are you sure you are ready?" Then you realize the question is not simply the amount of heat to which my question seriously. Between some guys are pretty broad to me passed, where it was very hard to the front ... It was also exactly the songs that I heard last year was not yet on the Seaside. So eg no Disciple, but that Seasons In The Abyss .




(photos again borrowed from the Wacken website. The balloon I made here in the forum. Incidentally, I have yet to find a few good photos of the already described days that are secretly still and added softly.)

Wacken 2010 - A Night To Remember

was then finally the big day came. We again had breakfast

Dutch French fries, this time I have tried Hot & Spicy. It was tasty, but neither hot nor spicy. Sven has this time tried the cheese sauce. The seller wanted him instead necessarily hollandaise turn on, but anyway the cheese sauce always pushed out of the hollandaise-tetra. The sellers were a bit confused this year total, plus more in the report on Saturday.
Since much time had I'm with Sven quite early again at metal market, where we wanted to encourage each other to unnecessary purchases of hat and sunglasses, as we both spend the same amount of money meaningless. I've just bought afterwards, three by pseudo-juggling balls. They are not quite ideal, but very pretty, useful for the beginning and do not dust at least. Sven has also tried a didgeridoo, which has attracted a nice, medieval-dressed drummer, who played to bongos.

This was followed killed some time, learned by heart the running order of the day for lunch and grilled. As we once again at the Dixis were before we wanted to go to the festival site, where other visitors had built up a few cheap instruments and played with it to the toilets.




lohos Jetzt gehts ...!

declined by 15 clock then release it. I'm with Sven directly at the opening of doors to run to the stage area a good place to secure the sound tower. We have a little bit surprised at the people there were already two hours before to get onto the site first and then not there in the first row wanted, but for a good seat at the beer stand won ... I have also seen at the merch booth on the grounds of the so much desired by me Iron Maiden football jerseys. In the hope that they are cheaper to buy than they have direct import from England, I went and was killed with a price of 75 €. So buy it online ...

At 16 clock have skyline and the festival officially opens the event. Skyline is the band from one of the Wacken-Orgas and had Doro (Pesch) and Udo (Dirk Schneider) as a guest singer. Have ever sung their anthem and their Wacken greatest classics ( All We Are and Balls To The Wall ). In addition, the beginning of the year late Ronnie James Dio Holy Diver with a tribute was paid to cover.



Following the Metal Hammer Awards were awarded 2010th The only bad all day. Metal-"values" have made themselves celebrated and so grandiose things like the Legend (introduced to further exploit Dios death), awarded Hero and Maximum Metal Award. Often even knew Moderator Schmier (Destruction of singers) is not exactly what was actually a price. Embarrassing embarrassing just to foreign ashamed. At 18 entered

clock then Alice Cooper the stage, or rather his "Theater Of Death "as it announced the curtain that covered up to that stage Initially there were a few songs to sing along to the audience to fuel -. Schools Out , Eighteen , Poison , etc - then for one hour long but entertaining story with a confused but less mitgrölbarer creepy music is offered four times in the Alice died / was (beheaded, hanged, stabbed, gemehrteilt) for each return from the dead, the end "VENGEANCE" screeching than on a high platform spider. terrific. Unfortunately, there was no Welcome To My Nightmare , but as a final Billion Dollar Baby and a second time Schools Out . Strange but effectively to inspire the masses again.





followed half an hour Mötley Crüe . Which I had already presented well, but they still bring a lot as a great live-video feel. A lot. With just a guitar you have created a sound which even the Three Amigos by Iron Maiden swept from the stage would have. I have not got my favorite song Too Young To Fall In Love , but each song has rocked rough and was absolutely mitsingbar, even if you did not know the text. Given a lot of cannon fire and was driven. Fat.




Scream for me Wacken ...
SCREAM FOR ME WACK!


And finally they came, the Heavy Metal Messiahs Iron Maiden . Each of the more than 75,000 visitors had come to see this concert, but we were right in front of the sound tower and had no crowds to be feared, but were in the middle and close to it, had good vision and ideal sound. Shortly before they took pictures of us up even as we pity the fries fork \\ m / have stretched into the air, that we do not have the photo ...
The performance was epic with a word. Hardly classic, but still the best of the three Maiden concerts which I previously 've seen.
Doctor, Doctor by UFO announced in the boxes on that soon, as always, the redeemers, each one has been or sung loudly called the band's name. Then an orchestral intro before the curtain to The Wicker Man fell. The band has again brought huge stage sets, this time a space ship and its own stars. Although there were from the new album The Final Frontier except for the first single El Dorado heard anything yet, but also to the Brave New World Songs has worked out fine because the album is very ambient sound. El Dorado ago was still worlds better than the great studio version. Blood Brothers Dio was dedicated and has also been found to be particularly great live number. In general, it was until just before the finish, with one exception only songs of the last 10 years (which I actually feel already a classic ...) and mainly of long, epic pieces. I think a couple of older gentlemen were around me a little irritated that I (also) could sing along with all new stuff: D all you could to unavoidable songs like Fear Of The Dark and The Number Of The Beast not do without, however, , the self-titled Iron Maiden the giant mascot Eddie came on stage (and even has guitar "Played") and to finish there was also the very first Running Free Single .



Overall, simply brilliant, even Sven, who barely knows what Iron Maiden / heard has called all the time, according to "Maaaaiiiideeen": D If you are not just stopped in the past and just want to hear old stuff was the concert did not already physically schlechtfindbar. sounded



As the ejector Night To Remember wiedermal Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life from the speakers. Someone must have found sometimes that can be drunk metal heads and grumble to employ well-not that the way back because of the crowd pretty long. We have also brought the masses to sing xD Scooter

night we had dinner then bought on the site at the entrance to the stage, so we looked at the Dio Memorial Movie Night on the Field. Unfortunately, it was probably just playing just concert footage, but there were some metal heads there have undertaken a Dio, which was very nice. Since the camp of the Bielefeld and our neighbors, nothing went to sleep then we are gone.

(the photos of the bands are not of me, which I got from the official Wacken page and festivals2go. Unfortunately I have no camera which is suitable to make decent photos of bands and concerts, I usually have different to do ^ ^)

(yes, use it for my longer entries once a cut would 'practical. But as a man I can the entry page is not aufhübschen)

Scotland Scrapbook Embelishments

Wacken 2010 - Opening

Wednesday I had to get up at 6 clock, as Sarah and Dennis to midnight set off and wanted to arrive at this time. I have met Sarah at the main entrance to the camp Inge border and guided to our tents. They had another pavilion and Sarah's sister, Esther here, so we have a really great camp. On the way to tape issue, I bought myself Dutch French fries with cheese sauce and fried onions, was a full breakfast xD also are free cans of coke, afterwards you should throw in a large empty barrel for it to get a Burger King coupon. A further action to show Metal Heads, has how to deal with garbage, but very ineffective, because all of their box with the camp were empty and there dropped into the grass. had

While Sarah and Dennis first catch sleep I'm open to new merchandise booth went to the stage inputs to me to look at the motives that it was this year. There I spied also the Dio-Memorial-shirt, for which I had then done something more than an hour.

lunch we went through the opened first medieval village until it started to rain in torrents. As the weather again was better, we strolled about for hours on the metal market, where I have tried on hats and sunglasses Sven, though none was able to wrestle of us to spend money. Sarah has decided, after long trying on for a very expensive "Bondage" pants.

also Ilka's people were now there, the afternoon we visited briefly. They wanted to go but only by 22 clock to Mambo Kurt and before you leave camp.

played At 18 clock then the first band: were on the Stage-wacking Fiddlers Green . At this stage was very little space, yet the band had probably the biggest audience of her career and was hooked. The people, despite rain celebrated. At one point I had lost in the huge mosh pit Sven and again found only in our camp. The performance was a first highlight, the band was great and you could jump, dance and sing along.
The following video I stole from some music blog. Since it was not from the stage and filmed from the audience can be nice to see the full Renaissance Faire site.



At midnight, we then looked at the last show of the day Mambo Kurt . This time the applause by the audience themselves can choose between € 80-Dance and known Rock-/Metalsongs. Although this has first scooter about Rammstein is selected, but always Rock numbers preferred. Here, the rock stuff to Mambo Kurt are pretty boring ... I would have preferred times Pokerface heard from him and as usual each year Sing Hallelujah Dr. Alban.

College Admission Chances

Wacken 2010 - settling

Tuesday morning, I was so about 9 clock out of my tent (woken up by a guy with a megaphone, which has spread from the back of a small truck garbage bag. The garbage problem seems to have become really big in Wacken) and met at Ilka, which already and was read to the sun had set. Shortly thereafter came Sven and we went together to the nearby supermarket Festival. I think we wanted to see if there is ice to cool our flesh. Anyway, we have there first too salty Cheese-tomato-breakfast bars, ice cubes, there was none. Later I went again to Sven for Edeka, where we have purchased from our cash 30 of cannabis iced tea cans. A very convenient and practical investment that we had enough to drink and it was cold in a cooler in spite of sunshine too.

afternoon was re-grilled. Since it was a little cooler then I have had tons of sugar bags with Sven at the festival go with supermarkets to make grog, oddly enough, has not popped right, but was quite tasty in this weather.

Then, when my phone rang I thought at first my parents had it, but I could not with the first Numbers start over with the voice of something. But the voice said something about "Wacken". It was Dennis and Sarah, who wanted to know if this year we are back! Especially we thought that we could use more people in the camp because we got a call Wednesday that the two will arrive tomorrow in Wacken!

Our neighbors were so excited that we had grog that they offered in exchange "Skullsplitter" and sat with us. Skullsplitter has filled up as ice tea granules identified with vodka, alcohol has not tasted it, it was very thick and supposedly it should quickly make drunk, but we felt nothing.



When it was sunny again wanted to play our neighbors with us Flunkyball. I wanted to try out from time to time, although I do not like beer. It has made me so an empty beer bottle filled with mead, which I have somewhat adulterated cannabis ice tea, if not for lack of carbon dioxide in the advantage. My team lost, but I emptied it about half a bottle of mead within 2min. Felt, we still have nothing from the alcohol. That has not changed throughout the evening, we sat with our neighbors in their luxury pavilion and we know better. We also have the rest of our grilled meat, since there was no ice for further cooling.

Exercise During A Herpes Outbreak

Wacken 2010 - Arriving

On Monday we made the pilgrimage 02.08.2010 - Sven (Wacken companion since 2007), Ilka (role-playing friend, we have taken the last year already on the way back) and I - once again after the Wacken Heavy Metal Mecca. For the fifth time for me, so a small anniversary. How time flies ...

now we are very experienced, so we have hardly discussed even before. Sunday evening I had with Sven schonmal loaded our luggage into the car.
Monday morning at 8:30 we have to do then made their way to Real at last minute shopping. Short term, we have decided to take a grill and buy meat for the first few days. Last time we were so Sarah and her boyfriend (I refuse to "man" to say this is so strange ...) by lining, and we wanted to eat this year not only ravioli and 5-minute sterols. Then we brought
from Ilka already and hoped that it does not confirm old stereotypes and roles drags half their household. The two bags they took from her apartment awakened also erstmal our confidence, but it then has conjured up another mountain of other stuff in the trunk of her boyfriend, including a new pavilion, which she alone has bought because we felt we were just to place neighbors with a gazebo to when it rains. Amazingly, I could still see in spite of the baggage from the rear window.
Before then went off we had breakfast at our car by tanks and Maccers tape with the W: O: A logo plastered, so that we recognize other Wacken-goers on the highway too.

beaten 6 hours we drove on the highway, never more than 120 km / h, fuel is always the most expensive on the whole festival. There were also two short queues at smaller sites.
The road to our campsite was shown us as always by friendly Wacken folders. This time we were a bit later since the last year, so that the back rows were already filled and we were ushered directly to the best spot of the whole area - the very front, in the midst of the party, close to the stage, but not directly on the way in which all must pass, next to a small ditch of the camp from one side to be protected against a single pass. We have always been good places to get caught, but that was really ideal.



tents and pavilions were built up quickly, first words were exchanged with the neighbors. They had a large, very stable luxury pavilion also, which gave the impression as if it would withstand even a tornado. Then we picked up our tapes and Full Metal Bags. The man at the counter was very nice, we can adjust the width has the ribbon itself and not offered to cut off the excess. The Full-Metal-bag contained This time, among other things finally earplugs and a small LED flashlight with a key ring, which lies in super secure under the "ceiling" of my tent. Thus equipped
went there on a first reconnaissance trip to the now-familiar village. In the Information Office, there was already a long queue of people wanting to secure the first T-shirts. Even Sven and Ilka have her there already worried because we knew from previous years that were later entirely times over an hour for it is present. I have won first omitted since it Wednesdays are many other motives, and I actually have preferred the time offered Dio-Memorial-shirt wanted, whose proceeds go to Stand Up And Shout Cancer Foundation, and that was not yet available. After the purchase, we then found that the headliners appear this year in the regular shirt, but only on the separate A Night To Remember shirt (which has existed for some years, especially for the Thursday-playing, usually well-known Hard Rock Bands ). A total Verarsche has reduced my need for a shirt that much. My theory is that the user fees for the logos of the big bands, the now are too high on Wednesday about 10 different designs, and you want to have consistent lineups. In
Edeka me then I try to buy a can of cannabis iced tea, which turned out as the only cost 15 cents, has the stuff because it seems easy wanted to get rid of quickly. Was neither particularly good nor particularly disgusting. In particular, it has the taste of sweetener and water.



On the way back to camp to have Sven and Ilka be bought even in supermarkets of the Wacken Festival Wacken everyone has a camp chair for far too expensive 15 €, because they had forgotten their chairs at home. Meanwhile, there was already quite late, so we have our first grilled to hunger and then have a little more together and talked rumsaßen until Ilka wanted to sleep around midnight.



I'm still trying to Sven on the caravan-tent Anne to find, but this year was because (at least at the time) not. So we stood nurnoch a little to the people the big screen and projector, where it had music videos are happening and then crawled into our tents.
