Fans of the live music scene are chomping at the bit about news about shows that they have tickets for in the hopes that they will somehow take place if the dreaded Coronavirus Pandemic has moved along. Sadly, it hasn’t yet and this finds more and more touring cycles being cancelled many months in advance. Here now the latest update from Rammstein regarding their North American Tour that was secured from the bands Official Facebook Page.
The Statement:
Sadly, but in the best interests of everyone’s health and safety, we have to postpone our North America Tour. We are now working on rescheduling the tour in 2021, so please hold on to your tickets as they will be honored at the rescheduled show dates. We hope to have an update on that shortly and will communicate it once we do. Continue reading Rammstein Postpones North American Tour 2020→
Last month, the guys in Rammstein announced a full North American stadium tour and if you missed all the finer details about that just click HERE to be up to date. Yesterday, the world at large got a glimpse into just what a build of their touring stage looks like and to say that it is impressive would be an understatement. Watch the amazing time lapse video below.
PiercingMetal Thoughts: Whew. Here I thought that a KISS or a Trans-Siberian Orchestra tour had a stage build to contend with. Alright, they do of course but despite their mutual awesome they are nothing like this creation. Having looked at this clip a few times, it made me wonder what kind of LEGO building set it might be if the proper expert creator of that stuff took a go at it. I realize that’s a strange revelation but I did just attend the annual Toy Fair so a lot of things like that are on my mind. It’s entirely possible because someone made a Tool diorama not too long ago so why not. It’s too early to know if I will be in attendance at the September show when the group is in my area but I sure hope to be there. If I am you will aware of it for sure with clips, and Instagram pics from the experience along with the eventual show review. See you next time.
The Press Release:
This year will see the North American debut of the most extreme spectacle in live music, when RAMMSTEIN brings its full-scale stadium production to this continent for the first time ever. Rock n roll’s most ambitious pyro-theatrical experience will be on display for a series of 10 open-air dates beginning August 20 at Parc Jean-Drapeau in Montreal and setting eight U.S. stadiums ablaze before a final bonfire at Foro Sol in Mexico City on September 27. The tour is produced by AEG Presents. Tickets will be go sale to the public 10am local time Friday January 24. For further information, pre-sales, special packages etc., go to rammstein.com.
Earlier this morning, the band Rammstein announced that they would play their only East Coast date for 2017 on June 25th at Jones Beach Theater in Wantaugh, NY. This is pretty big news for fans of the German Juggernauts and their incredible presentation and while many of us might be disappointed about the lack of a full-scale tour, it’s easy to understand why the band chooses to make these appearances all the more legendary and impacting. Sadly I missed those most recent shows that were featured on the “Rammstein In Amerika” DVD but friends who were a part of the gigs said their minds were blown from beginning to end. I am going to have to try to be there for this one even if I don’t do it with the means to photograph the incendiary madness that takes place song after song as Till Lindemann guides his bandmates into glory.
Tour Date:
June 25 – Jones Beach Theater
PiercingMetal Thoughts: I’m not going to add much here since this is pretty much all my own thoughts but I would love to know what you readers think about the fact that Rammstein is coming back here and opting to do a single show. Feel free to let us all know the skinny if you attended that last time around. I had to rush this out for you since the tickets are going on sale on Saturday via THIS LINK. Don’t waste time since this will very likely sell out quick.
