Yeah baby!

Crammerock in Groeneputte Stekene... what's next?!

I'll be there

Great !
So again Belgium and a popfestival late in the Summer

Just visited the website of the festival, but there is not so much to read.
Some news items and photos of the festival held in 2010.

So when is the sales starting and how to get a ticket ?

and an other question .... will they play in The Netherlands ...

Excellent Now that's the Belgian countryside for you!

One should never ever miss a Sisters gig in the middle of nowhere in Belgium.

I cannot really afford this one as well, but I'll check all budget possibilities, including biking or crawling to get there

Now that's the best line I read all year
Hope you can make it!

Apparently the festival is gonna announce the first 10 names/bands tonight at 21.30h...
This must be the very first time the Sisters are breaking the news on their very own website

Exaaactly

Btw, any idea where approximately it is, close to any town?

It looks like it's almost in walking distance from Wim's house. Probably.

Anyway, I'm in!

The location is nearby the highway E34 Antwerpen-Knokke as mentioned on the website

EATB! Steak n°8! (oh and the Sisters! )

So any idea about ticket prices? The site still seemed to be last year's earlier...

I can find Stekene, but what/where is Groeneputte? A place in Stekene?

I think it is, but Stekene is a teensy village anyway so it'll probably be easy to find once your there. Nowt to worry about

Ok thanks - I cannot see any (still functioning) train station or place to stay. As I only sleep in tents when I hike and as I only drink Belgian beer when I don't drive, what could a taxi cost the 10 km something to/from Sint Niklaas? I guess the best option is to sleep there or in Antwerpen (or not at all of course..)

Edit: ok I found a page for another region, but should be an indication..something like 25-30 euros for a taxi to Sant Niklaas after the gig, expensive but ok if sharing with others.

I have to think seriously about this, it's sadly much more off the map than for example Tienen or Lokeren, I can already see the expenses will add up along the way

yeah I don't do tents so I always prefer a gig in a city...nevertheless this is under consideration but wouldn't mind something in NL. if decide to go more than happy to share taxi euphoria

There are no trains but I think there are fast buses. No idea until when they go though, I'll check later!

Maybe again this will be a late night / early morning concert ?

This time I will stay and sleep in my car ....

or I must buy a tent to sleep in ...

Waitin for more information

and yes
