Wacken Open Air - Where metal dreams come true!!

This video which I have posted below is about the heavy metal music festival known as "Wacken Open Air" . I luckily had an opportunity (which I saved up for 3 years) to visit this great festival earlier this year in August in Germany. Words cannot sum up or describe my experience. Below is a little video I made about Wacken Open Air with some little information about it's history with images and some clips mixed together. Unfornately due to the space available on Jing and such I couldn't some up all the images I would have liked to share and speak more into detail about this great festival. Anyways hope this gives you a peak at my expericen. Enjoy!

  1. Very interesting but seems to prove that Jing can't handle the bandwidth required for good video streaming. The parts that have voice over stills download and play fairly smoothly but the replay of videos is frustratingly slow. That is a confirmation of what I found out with my experimentation.

  2. To watch the entire video in one stream, I let the whole video play in the background (took about 15 minutes. Then after it finished, I clicked on replay and it played all the way through in less than 5-mintes, without interruption. Fascinating info! I'm afraid playing it will quickly use up all the free monthly allotment of Screencast bandwith, thus, everyone in the class may not get a chance to view it.

  3. I've never heard of this festival before, but it looks like it's extremely popular. Seems like a very fun environment for heavy metal fans. That's pretty cool how you got to attend a show.

  5. My brother has actually been to this concert in 2005. He said it was insane! This video took me 20 minutes to watch it completely, but had great information and was well worth it.
