Hello!

I was wondering if there are Dutch members on this board who are going to Pinkpop 2012? Last year was much fun and this year also promise to be perfect! Just saw the list of artists which may be there! You can find it on Pinkpop 2012

Please let me know!! Perhaps you can join me !

Rumors are going that Linkin Park will perform @ Pinkpop 2012! Would be the best Pinkpop ever.. No one else interested in this event !??

Line-up looks good so far. Been waiting more than 15 years to see Soundgarden. Always cool to see Springsteen. Cure aint a bad headliner.
Linkin Park, cant stand them . Hopefully rumours about Neil Young will come true

Never been to Pinkpop before, so can u tell me what to do after the music's over? Read somewhere that last act finishes quite early, about 11pm. Also is there a good atmosphere at the festival?

Considering this event for next summer, Anyone here been before ?

Is it far away from Edinhoven airport ?

What's the atmospehere like? is it laid back like other of the european festivals like RW and hurricane

Will definitely be going to Pinkpop this year for the first time...was already quite sure after Bruce being announced but it just keeps getting better.
Hope Neil Young will be the third Headliner...Linkin Park would be unbelievably awful and crap.

Now that Mumford and Sons have been annnounced nothing can go too wrong anymore though...
Full lineup (or nearly) is announced at the annual press conference end of Feb.

There isn't much to do in Landgraaf after Pinkpop is over. Try to find some transportation to for example Eindhoven where you can do something afterwards..pretty big city!

It's a 45 minute drive with the car when arriving at Eindhoven Airport...!
