RUNNING ORDER + DARK ANGEL + TAP

Created by Wacken-Holger
07/04/2003

Dear Metalheads,

we can´t answer all your questions about the running order in the Q + A for your satisfaction needs. So we give you a statement: We have to make many compromises because of the bands/management, stage overlaps and your wishes. Everybody have seen it: We updated the running order often and some people see and understand the problems ? other people don´t. Problems like ?I don´t want to play before 14 o´clock? or ?we don´t want to play at the party stage?! We want to give the best to present you a fucking cool festival and make everybody happy. But some things will not be optimal for all.

 

We ask for understanding.

 

About DA + TAP: We don´t know what´s going wrong. The Punchdrunks should have come with the Dark Angels (see Gene Hoglan) but we haven´t heared something for weeks. Gene hasn´t phoned us and on their homepage you can read that the singer was hurt really bad. But we have no statement from the band and from TAP. So we have deleted them from the billing! Also the management did not get him on the phone. Now the billing is finish but we will give DA ? not TAP - the chance to play if they phone us. We ask for understanding.

We can´t understand the behaviour of Gene. The fans were happy to see DA.

Your

woa-team
