It is even called the ‘The Cathedral of Heavy Metal’ and ‘The Mecca of Metal’. 

The two elderly planned their escape secretly. 

However, the nursing facility found out about their disappearance. As both men have mental health issues, a search warrant for them was issued by the facility. 

They were found groggy at 3 am but refused to go back! 

They were also taken to the medical tent as they both had quite a lot of alcohol. 

A return transport was confirmed and they were sent back to the nursing facility. 

The nursing facility even confirmed that they both enjoyed the festival! 

Haha… charming!
