Eh, there's about seven bands I'd watch and I can catch them anytime at the Marshall Amphitheater down the street across from KFC. I can grab a bucket and a show all in one quick and easy motion.

I think this yeahr's line up totaly sucks... last year were a lot of better bands... anyway I'd like to see VR, Slayer, StoneSour and of course Megadeth again...
but the best at the Rock am Ring is still the camping, because in fact there are no rulez... that was fuckin' great...

"Nürburgring" is not a town, it's an old Formula 1 circuit, so the festival is comparable to Donnington.
"Nür-burg" (Burg = castle) is the town; "ring" = circuit.
Haven't been to this festival since 1993, even not when Maiden (and "'tallica") headlined a couple of years ago. The addition of Slayer, Megadeth, Type O Negative, Machine Head, Lamb Of God and a couple of other good non-metal bands to the lineup looks promising, but still not good enough for me.
