Fool's
Mate n°288
(- Mucc)
...not that I suddenly fell in love with Mucc, far from that, -but-! Photos
of Wacken! I didn't go to Wacken this year after all (bands were less interesting
than previous years, up to me), and I missed it! So it gives me some rememories!
(yeah because there is really the "black stage" on the right,
a small space, the "true metal stage" on the left, then another
smaller stage on the left side, and the "wet stage", where Mucc
played, is under a tent in the back, at the entrance of the festival...
aaaaah rememories!)
Oh yeah, let me explain you what Wacken is exactly about: Imagine a lost
village far in northern Germany, 2,500 human souls living there all year
long + ten times more of cows, sheeps and the likes. All year long? Not
really: 3 days a year, the first week-end in August, the poor village is
invaded by 30,000 metalheads, the air is filled with heavy-metal, heavy-metal
brotherhood is everywhere (...go to Wacken and you'll experience what "heavy-metal
brotherhood" is really about!), and, and.... AND IT'S GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You feel like you're in a heavy-metal village/town (small surface, but over
30,000 persons!), nothing but metalheads everywhere, heavymetal music everywhere,
you're in heaven actually! WACKEN RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(+ Little note: Maybe someone should tell them that "Euro" isn't the short version for "Europe", there's no short version for "Europe" actually, it's only that the European money is called "euro"... or maybe they tried to act cool? Nice photos anyway, looks like they had real fun!)
