CANCELLATION- CHUBBY AND THE GANG (UK)
"Lightning Don't Strike Twice" - Unfortunately now it seems like it does. Holy crap, but unfortunately CHUBBY AND THE GANG canceled us at short notice without giving any precise reasons. Super annoying, we were really looking forward to the British. Whatever you want to do, complaining has never helped, the nightly slot is now taken by MIKE AND THE ASSFUCKERS. Thanks to Torgau!
So THE RUNNINGS starts at Waldbad on Saturday at 12 p.m. So you can pet your Friday hangover a little bit.

BAR STOOL PREACHERS (UK)
After the downer of the illness-related cancellation of 7 SECONDS - see previous post - we went through our imaginary band wish list again yesterday with our index finger. And stopped quite high up:
Welcome THE BAR STOOL PREACHERS - England's good mood guarantors! Awild mix of ska, pop and punk, we hope you have packed your dance slippers! Really more than just a last-minute addition! We hope that we can use it to dry a few shed tears!

CANCELLATION - 7 SECONDS (US)
We regret to inform you that 7 SECONDS have to cancel their planned tour due to health reasons. (see band statement below)
Of course, we understand this and wish you a speedy recovery.
We pulled out all the stops and can tell you that we found a great replacement in a short amount of time. Announcement coming tomorrow!
„Hey Everyone - It’s come to our attention Steve was hospitalized yesterday, and has been diagnosed with Pulmonary Embolism. A condition in which one or more arteries in the lungs become blocked by a blood clot. He has been administered care and medication. It’s his doctor’s orders that he doesn’t fly for at least 4 weeks, and gets immediate rest as this is a very serious condition. I’m very sorry to let you know that the band has to cancel this trip. If they had more time they could rehearse a replacement, but they sadly don't. Can you please reach out to all the ummed about this."

Greetings from Glaubitz! Once again we caught the warmest days of the year for the construction.
As you can see, we have our hands full and therefore little time to answer emails. But we have updated our website! Perhaps you will find the answer to your questions under ›INFOS – take a look! The downloads include the running order to print out and a map of the area, as well as the form for minors that you absolutely have to bring with you!
In our »FACEBOOK GROUP you can offer and find rides. Still room in your car? Maybe you can give a few train passengers a lift from Glaubitz station?
You can still get tickets up until and including Wednesday at our authorized ticket offices and at TixforGigs, after that only at the box office on site.
We'll keep working hard and are really looking forward to seeing you!

The early musical education project is running extremely successfully
The number of registrations for the family campsite has increased again this year! But we have made room and can offer a few more places to those who decide at short notice. Click here for »REGISTRATION
Unfortunately, it was not possible to move the family campsite to a quieter area as planned. As in previous years, you will find the entrance on the B98, at the Rodaer Weg intersection. ›HERE you can find the site plans.
Some of you have asked whether your registration for the family campsite was successful. Yes! Please do not wait for a confirmation email from us. If you have registered using the form, you are registered with us. We only ask for your email address in case we have any queries. Have you not booked a pitch yet? We still have a few available!
Would you like to celebrate your favorite band without worrying while the kids have a great time? Last year's success calls for a repeat - take a look at our children's program and let the kids choose their headliners!

BAD NERVES (UK)
It's Coming Home... das hat bekanntlich nicht ganz gereicht bei der Europameisterschaft für England. Hingegen dürfte es kaum Zweifel geben, dass von der Insel immer wieder Bands kommen, die so außergewöhnlich gut sind, dass dem Hörer einfach die Spucke wegbleibt. Mit THE MEFFS, CHUBBY & THE GANG, den CYNIDE PILLS oder den BAD NERVES haben wir euch auch dieses Jahr vier Kleeblätter gepflückt. Und gerade letztere gehen momentan richtig durch die Decke. Das "uneheliche Kind aus RAMONES und STROKES" (Selbstbezeichnung), kein geringerer als Billie Joe Armstrong von GREEN DAY als Edelfan, eine gerade absolvierte US-Tour mit THE HIVES... es kann gut sein, dass dies hier der allerletzte Aufruf an euch ist, diese Band noch unter "Geheimtipp" verbuchen zu dürfen: "Ich war dabei, damals, BAD NERVES beim BACK TO FUTURE 2024, als die noch nicht so groß waren!"
Wann? - Samstag, 20.40 Uhr
Wo? - Hauptbühne

PIY PUNK ROCK KARAOKE are back!
Date: Friday, July 26th - from 11 a.m. - shortly after washing the cat, so to speak. Where? - in the forest bath! The helmet will be painted properly again! So you could become the person who will be talked about in awe and admiration for the entire weekend from your "Moment Of Fame" onwards! Pats on the back at every beer stand ("You sang SLIME well!", "You really look like GG Allin!"), skyrocketing follower numbers ("... hey, you sounded like Otze!") and appreciative looks everywhere.
It's very simple: select and perform a song, grab your reward liquor and enjoy the fame! From DOWNWARDS to AGNOSTIC FRONT, from MOTÖRHEAD to BABOON SHOW, RANCID or WIZO! Here is the song selection for practicing!
After a self-imposed break, the punk rock jukebox is finally sparkling again! The band themselves describe the process like this:
"... you choose your favorite song on our flyer with the song list, then you come to the stage and tell us what you want to sing or write the song name and your name on a piece of paper and throw it into our song jar. Then as soon as it's your turn you come on stage, get the lyrics and we play and sing the song together! As a reward or as a little encouragement in advance, a pepper is placed down your throat as needed."

BEER YOGA - Drinking with Yoga
Bier-Cobra und Bier-Stuhl? Was für manche erstmal ziemlich strange klingt, ist quasi ein echter Geheimtipp auf dem Back To Future! Denn hier gilt eigentlich "Punkrock meets Wellness" - wieso also nicht schon früh "Saufen mit Yoga"?
Aufgrund unzähliger Nachfragen von fanatischen Bier-Yoga Fans gibt es dieses Jahr gleich an zwei Tagen eine Warm Up-Session fürs Festival: Das heißt am Freitag und am Samstag, jeweils um 10:00 Uhr, leitet euch unsere Punkrock-Yogalehrerin Simmi von »RIOTYOGA Leipzig durch eine feucht-fröhliche Bier-Yoga-Sitzung im Waldbad. Es ist einfach der perfekte Start in so einen langen Festivaltag! Erscheint bitte pünktlich mit eurem Handtuch oder Stranddeckchen an der Waldbadbühne!
Du trinkst kein Bier? Kein Problem, du kannst auch mit jedem anderen (auch alkoholfreiem) Getränk mitmachen! Also Prost und Namaste!
