Wacken to Amsterdam (and maybe back?)

Yo, n00b here. Been lurking for quite a while, though in need of some information, so thought I'd finally sign up.

Basically, me and my friends are attending Wacken Open Air festival this year and we are planning on visiting Amsterdam for a 3 days afterwards. Anyone with any information on the journey to do this, would be really useful.

I'm guessing there is some sort of train from ZOB (Hamburg main train station) to Amsterdam Cetraal station? Though this is guess work. I need to know when/how much this train would be.

The other issue is flights. We're planning on flying outbound from Standsted on the 29th to Lúbeck (Hamburg). But does that mean we'd have to do the return flight from here too? Or are there any cheap flights back from Amsterdam itself?

Thanks...anyone?

I'd check DB's website. I had a link to it in the transport section sometime ago.

Deutsche Bahn is the German railway. Here is the link. Let me know if you've got any questions. I used it to find routes on a 3 week trip all over Germany, Amsterdam to Haarlem and to find the schedule from Amsterdam to Paris.
