A rock music festival in western Germany, Rock am Ring, is being evacuated over a "terrorist threat", the organisers have announced.

Fans began streaming out of the venue in Nuerburg after the organisers asked them to leave "in a calm and controlled manner".

"Due to a terrorist threat the police have advised us to interrupt the festival," they said.

Well let's hope its a whole lotta nothing. Problem is 80000 in one place, if there is a panic (even unfounded) it can cause its own serious issues.

Terrorists don't generally give threats any more, so it's probably a hoax, but no-one can take that chance.
