As the forum is falling asleep, I´m gonna open some new threads. So... what are your favourite festivals (where and when is it normally)? And WHY? And what are your best festival memories from the past?

You have way too much free-time Twi ;D True! My magazine isn`t online yet, means I can´t work on it ... so I´m bored in front of the computer! But even if I didn´t have time at the moment... I don`t want this forum to fall asleep!

I'm going to be very un-metal right now... My favourite festivals are NOT a metal festivals but: "Andanças", a folk music and dance festival in the North of Portugal, with great bands from all over the world and lots of people playing their own instruments in the gardens and such, brilliant; and Interceltico de Sendim, which, as the name implies is also a folk/celtic music festival in the far far far Northeast of Portugal... saw Hedningarna live last year. This year I'm goin' to Wacken, maybe I'll change my opinion.

i'd love to see the Festival Interceltique in Lorient (Breizh) some day, but our local festival (Festival Lent in Maribor, Slovenia) offers quite a good dose of folk/etno music and freakish/weird street theatre... a bit too commercial lately though which means that everything in the town gets more expensive, esp. the BOOZE metal festivals largely turn me off, too many black-metal kids trying to be "grim", "nekro" or some other crap - basically an excuse to behave like the worst assholes and fucking up other festival-goers as well as the organizers i like medieval-festivals... mmmm... mead ;D

It's just brilliant... really, no shit. Get either Trä or Kaksi or Karelia Visa, those are the best ones imo. About Wacken, of course we'll meet, I'd say we'd drink a beer together, but since I know you don't fancy beer, I'll just forget all about being a gentleman and drink all by myself!!

Well, I've only been to one festival so far, Graspop 2003, which was great. Gotta agree with Tom S, Iron Maiden ruled!
I'll be going to either Graspop or Wacken this year (or both....) and I'd like to go to Tuska as well. Oh, my poor bank balance!!!
