"The Festival was well-organised, no real problems occurred" ???

The promoters were students without any experience, they did it as well as they could. And they had a lot of problems, for example with forged tickets and freaks, who damaged the fence to come in free of charge.-- Zibaldone2 ( talk) 10:30, 18 January 2015 (UTC) reply

Hauptstadion??

Sorry, the name of this stadium is neither Hauptstadion nor Reiterstadion, but REITSTADION.-- Zibaldone2 ( talk) 10:47, 18 January 2015 (UTC) reply

  • The name of the venue was indeed Hauptstadion. Reitstadion translated to English is "equestrian stadium", which is what Hauptstadion is! Please do your research before creating false accusations! Evangp ( talk) 12:16, 18 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Please excuse my limited school-english! I don't want to create false accusations, but these are the facts: Hauptstadion (= main stadium) is only a technical term to differenciate between the bigger and the smaller equestrian stadium, that was built in the 90s. (I guess you found "Hauptstadion" as a keyword in the german wiki, and I just found this to my surprise! Obviously the ALRV promotes this new term to demonstrate its superiority relating to the "Tivoli". See also: Hauptstadion -Diskussion!! all in all: It is absolutely unusual to say: "We go to the Hauptstadion" People always say "we go to the Reitstadion or (sometimes) Reiterstadion or "to the Reitturnier". By the way: In the contract (I have got a copy of it!) between the promoters of the pop-festival 1970 and the ALRV you can find the term "Turnierplatz".

I propose: contemporary Hauptstadion formerly Reitstadion or Turnierplatz.-- Zibaldone2 ( talk) 20:47, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply
