Nothing except World War III (SimV edition).

I'm still thinking about going on a festival this year, but I'm not sure whether I should go to Wacken (metal 24/7) or to Southside/Hurricane festivals. I even considered a trip to Hungary, for Sziget (probably Europe's biggest festival).

Ah well, it depends on the line-up anyways...

I think the situation is getting ridiculous. Not only do you have to book months in advance for any event but the prices are a joke & getting worse. This all started when ticket sales were organised by agencies & not the venues themselves. I don't see me attending any concerts while this is the case.

Too right Doug, prices these days are ridiculous :-/
I decided to boycott all gigs/concerts in my local area after I was told it was gonna cost [b]

The whole original point of festivals, were to allow those who couldn't afford a concert would get a chance to see their fav bands. Organisers have forgotten this.
