Graspop Metal Meeting & Hellfest to be streamed this weekend

Two big names in the world of Heavy Metal festivals are broadcasting at least parts of the big festival line-ups - both totally for free!

First to go is the Graspop Metal Meeting which gives you the chance to see some bands on two different channels. You need to have Silverlight installed on your device to be able to watch this.

Underneath of the stream window you can check out the schedule of the bands that will be streamed - check for the green or partly green marked fields in the overview. Those bands will be shown, or at least some tracks from their set.

Keep in mind that the schedule changes over the day - bands may be added to the broadcast list very shortly (just for example: I saw two changes in the few moments of time I took to write this article - so check back often :-)  At the moment I'm typing this these bands are confirmed for today (Saturday 20th June)

Orphaned Land
Morgoth
Danko Jones
Godsmack
Judas Priest

Update 2015/06/22: It's sadly over but there's still a chance to see stuff from the Graspop Metal Meeting at the concert video archive that has been opened up. Go and watch it while it's up!

The next one to check out is the Hellfest from France. There it's a bit more complicated. Leave the guy with the gray face on the top of the page behind and scroll to the six pictures below. Hover over the stream you desire (they are sorted with the date and stage name) to see the bands that are scheduled for the live stream. One more click and you can watch it. Or even better: see the bands you want directly here on my page. Great to see the people from Arte allow embeding streams to other sites. Thanks for that! The streams start at 17:15h today.

Update 2015/06/22: It's sad to see the festival is already over now. :-( But wait, some stuff can be seen again (or for the first time if you missed it out). The Hellfest livestream page is now a archive of some of the festival performances. :-) You can watch shows from Sodom, Children of Bodom, Scorpions, Faith no more and many, many more on the linked page. Enjoy (again)!

This is what is confirmed for the Altar & Temple stage at the moment for this very saturday:

Desultory 17:25
Finntroll 18:15
Coffins 19:10
Ensiferum 20:05
Skinless 21:10
Obituary 23:35
Venom 00:40


This overview shows what will be shown from the main stage:

L7 17:50
Slash 18:40
Killing Joke 19:45
Faith No More 21:45
Scorpions 23:25

Rock am Ring 2015 shows to be streamed online and later on demand / TV

Yeah, the festival season has opened up it's doors. Next to go is the famous "Rock am Ring" festival which will take place the coming weekend from Friday 5th June to Sunday 7th June 2015.

You can also be part of the show if you can't make it there (like me)! There will be a free and legal livestream available on the websites of SWR (german TV station), DasDing and on the sites of Ring Rocker. All the streams start daily at 18 pm (CEST, german time) and will run up to 3 am in the night.

The exact timetable and the list of the bands that will be streamed will be released in the upcoming days. So far it is confirmed that the gigs of the Foo Fighters, Slipknot, Beatsteaks, Broilers, Eagles of Death Metal, Fritz Kalkbrenner, Clueso,Bad Religion, Kraftklub, Slash, Interpol, Papa Roach and Yellowcard will be shown online.

I'll update this article as soon as I have info on that so please keep checking back from time to time. 

Update 2015/06/08: Is it all over now? Yeah, the festival is over. But streaming is not. :-) This week TV station EinsPlus is showing Best Of stuff from Rock am Ring 2015 starting today until coming Friday. Best of all: you can watch the stuff online at this location.

Update 2015/06/07: Here we go again. :-) This is day three and the final one of Rock am Ring 2015. Today we can look forward to some special shows I think. Let's hope the stream capacities and our internet connections will keep going strong. Always keep in mind that there's also a audio only stream out there. That one worked out fine for me yesterday. :-)

Update 2015/06/05: The timetable for friday has been released. The shows will be shown on three different webpages. Each site features one stream that will only broadcast a part of the festival. Here's the exact overview with direct links to all the three streaming sites, all times are CEST.

If you prefer to listen only to the shows then you might be happy to know that the Ringradio also streams the shows but they start airing off stuff not before 18h daily.

For all those living in germany it should be mentioned that the show of Die Toten Hosen will be aired exclusively through the TV station Das Erste. From 8th to 14th June special broadcasts of the format "BEATZZ in concert" will daily show off stuff of the festival starting each day at midnight.

Prior to the Rock am Ring fest a radio stream will update people in germany and nearby of the things going on in the festivak location Mendig. For all those who don't live there: you can listen to it through the apps for amartphones. Pick your copy for the iOS or get the version for the Android smartphone system.
A webbased version of this so called Ringradio can be found on the website of SWR3.

After the festival you'll find some stuff of the festival online from 8th June to 12th June 2015 on the websites of SWR and DasDing.

Most of all: have fun through the festival days and enjoy summer!
