Written on a Bathroom Wall

You metalheads out there all know that Wacken is basically the pinacle of metal festivals, held each year in Wacken, Germany.  If you don’t know, don’t talk to me.
This year a 70,000 sold out crowd (that’s the official number, the actual number was closer to 100,000) came to camp out and bang their heads to Maiden, Carcass, Gorgoroth, At The Gates, Lordi, As I Lay Dying, Watain, Primordial, Obituary, Nifelheim, Nashville Pussy, The Haunted, War Bringer, and many, many more.  The music went from 11 AM ’til after 3 AM and the German drinking songs never stopped.
After three days of metal, Becks, mud, and friends from around the world, I’m back to sleep and give you all a taste of the highlights.

It only rained once this year.  But thanks to the official Wacken ponchos, people were prepared!
