Does someone have an idea if it will be possible to buy tickets 3 weeks before the festival?

My parents used to be that way too, but it's just stupid really, most sites have very good encryption of codes and various other security systems.

I don't know if there are other places were you can buy tickets, but I've got this site www.metaltix.com from the wacken website and It seems that you can also pay without visa.

Haha, my parents are the same way. It was hell trying to get them to use the credit card to buy my computer online.

I'm still in doubt if I'll go or not. A lot of the bands playing there, I don't know very well (Korpiklaani, Finntroll,...) or I have seen them already (Children of Bodom, Fear Factory, Soulfly,...). The only bands I really would like to see are Gamma Ray and Amon Amarth (though I only know their latest album and probably they will tour here after the release of ther new record). Second thing is that Wacken is quite far and none of my friends (stupid non-metal-minded friends ) will join me on my trip. But I know I can't wait too long to decide...

My ticket arrived. Where do you live, blood_brother? If it's not too far away I could pick you up. With too far away I mean hopefully not in West Flanders or something.
Or, if I decide to not go by car anyway (still have to check the price of the night train) then maybe could still meet on the train.
I'll probably take this one:
Diest - 01.08.06 - Vertrek - 22:25 Hamburg Hbf - 02.08.06 - Aankomst - 06:52
That train also needs to be reserved though. It's Diest to Brussels, then in Brussels the night train directly to Hamburg. The easiest way really. Normal trains would require from me at least 5 times changing train in different stations and that's not something I plan to do with a shitload of baggage.

But picking me up is not an option, I live 90km or so from you in the wrong direction... But maybe I can come to you and then we go together by car?

Sure. That sounds good to me. It's fine for you to pay part of the gas, right? Because the reason I'd take the train in the other case would be that going by car all alone would cost too much. I'll fill it up before I leave, but I'd still probably need to tank twice, once on the way there and once on the way back. So it would be around 50 € to go there and back.
But sure, if you come here I can take you. Or meet somewhere along the way. You're certain, right? In about half an hour I'm leaving for Hasselt, and if I want to go by train I'd have to order that ticket this afternoon (won't be able to go to the city anymore for a week, and the local train station doesn't sell international tickets). But I won't buy the ticket then.
Where exactly are you coming from?
BTW: I ordered my ticket from Metaltix and it arrived yesterday. It took 8 days to get here. So you should be fine even if you have to order it in Germany.

@ Sneltrekker: I really like you can wait till the 22nd when I know more about how I might go there.. But there's 3 of us, you remember that right? I mean, will there be enough place in your car for you + Blood_brother + 3 others + luggage? Or do you take the bigger car?

ooooh .... there's 3 of you? I thought 2 ...
shit :/
I'm not allowed to take my dad's car. So I have to do with my own car which isn't too big. There's enough sitting space, but not space for all the luggage of 5 people (counting me also)
There's no chance at all you know anything earlier than the 22nd, right?
From what he said on MSN blood_brother will definately come with me. And he's sure already so I won't cancel him anymore. The two others that contacted me from some big forum I told to wait until the 22nd because I wasn't sure anymore before then if I could take them (well, I don't know them ... and if I have the choice I'd still rather drive all across Europe with someone I know than with someone I spoke to in an email once). But if it's 3 people that could be a problem either way.
I'll do a little test tonight to check how much luggage can fit in my coffer.

Learn something new every day. Apparently this fabric kind of ... lid between my coffer and my rear window can be opened. I still have to figure out how exactly. I am such an idiot sometimes Anyway, talk to you on MSN ... but just don't take your entire wardrobe ... the only girls I can compare with are my girl and my sisters ... and I'm pretty sure if they'd go to a camping for three days they'd take enough clothes for 3 months. But then, I'm a worrier myself Except with me that doesn't come with the amount of stuff I take, but instead with the time in advance I want to take care of stuff. I hate doing things at the last moments.

There's only a slight possibility I see these guys before the 22nd (however much I want to see them ^^) but as soon as I know, I'll let you know too of course.. I know it's all a bit messy hate that but anyway, we'll all get there in some way ^^ But we'll anyhow see we don't take too much luggage.. It will probably be the food and damned drinks that will take up most of the space I fear..

Sure. That'll be fine though. A bit of pushing and shoving and it would work.
