Vannacht heeft de organisatie van Wacken Open Air laten weten dat de gemaskerde brigade van Slipknot één van de headliners voor de komende editie van Wacken Open Air is.
Thomas Jensen zegt: “We are thrilled and admittedly a little proud that one of our great musical dreams will finally come true next year, when Slipknot will be on stage for the first time at the Wacken Open Air”, says the festival co-founder and organiser. “We are also glad for this opportunity to state once again that being sold out is never a reason for us to stop working on delivering a great billing. We would like to thank our fans for their continued trust and hope that this announcement will be as great for them as it is for us.”
Het festival, dat altijd begin augustus plaats vindt, is al lang en breed uitverkocht. De eerste bands beloven dan ook al veel goed. De tot nu toe bevestigde bands zijn; AMON AMARTH, ANNIHILATOR, AT THE GATES, BEAST IN BLACK, CEMICAN, DEATH ANGEL, DIRKSCHNEIDER, HYPOCRISY, JUDAS PRIEST, KAMPFAR, MERCYFUL FATE, NERVOSA, ORDEN OGAN, OVERKILL, SICK OF IT ALL, SLIPKNOT, SODOM, U.D.O. (met Bundeswehr Orchester), VENOM, WHILE SHE SLEEPS .
Kortom, Wacken Open Air staat nu al voor een mooi feestje in 2020.
