Wacken Open Air 8/2005
Our 5th Wacken trip was rainy, cold, the camp was crowded with all too many people -- yet the festival was as awesome as ever! Endless band pictures are boring, so didn't take many -- for those see Poltsi's pictures ( a link will be here ). - Matti
| Arrived in Hamburg after our morning flight. Searching for breakfast on Reeperbahn, we noticed Schweinske had closed its terrace, blaah! |
| So Durum Pita it was |
| Later on having dinner before going to the W:O:A preparty in Headbangers Ballroom. |
| |
| |
| |
| Bunch of Irish fellow metalheads |
| |
| |
| In Itzehoe.. |
| ..where we hitched a ride to Wacken in the Mökä bus. |
| |
| Enjoying the last of the good weather upon arrival.. it would soon rain for straight 3 days from here on. |

| Esko's happy -- 8 bottles of booze to go |
| Poltsi & the usual |
| The Mökä's bus driver Scooter and rock hard angry dragon Baris |
| Definitely a good way to transport beverages |
| W:O:A firefighters once again. |
| And off to the Headbangers Ballroom tent to drink ourselves stupid and band heads to playback music.. had a blast. |
