Some news from the Wacken camp: Back in October we already gave a statement regarding the situation of the campground for handicapped people. We want to thank all of you people who supported us with their opinions, ideas and hints In advance!
Basically Wacken Open Air is always interested into the optimization of the service for our audience with the goal to offer the best possible service. So we have worried a lot about how to grant an almost barrier-free festival experience for visitors with handicap. That means as barrier-free as a festival event allows it. Our intention is to grant the highest possible integration and inclusion into the festival. That means no separation for people with handicaps or a special treatment to every other festival visitor – in accordance with the integration idea of the metal community and the Wacken Open Air. This is also in line with tenor of feedback we received from you after W:O:A 2011 and in the course of the last months.

The Prep School Tragedy brings chaos to the digital realm in the official music video for the single, “Thought I Toldja”. “Thought I Toldja” is the newest single from The Prep School Tragedy’s debut album, It’s All A Show available June 2012 through Accessory Music in association with Glitch Mode Recordings. The Chicago electro-pop collective turns up the volume and aims their unique brand of frighteningly addictive grunge pop at society’s technological obsession. “Thought I Toldja” is both sinister and sexy as it personifies everything the Prep School Tragedy is known for - catchy hooks, nasty synths, and best of all, those bubbly cheerleaders known as The Squad.
