Accept, Municipal Waste, Anthrax and Slayer! Really liking the emphasis on thrash for next year, that's one ticket sold

Accept, thrash?

I don't think the line-up is looking as good as they have in the past, but it'll still definitely be worth going to.

I'm still waiting for more announcements. By this time two years ago I was already sold. Last year took longer to convince me and so is this year...

Very meh line-up. Will see if I can get a ticket cheap off ebay a couple of weeks before it's on but I'm not paying full price for this.
