RAMMSTEIN Announces North American Tour - Nov. 14, 2011
RAMMSTEIN, the Berlin-based band known for its incendiary live performances, will bring its brand new live production to North America this spring for 21 dates kicking off April 20 in Ft. Lauderdale. Tickets for the tour, promoted by Live Nation, will go on sale beginning Friday, November 18 and will be available at Ticketmaster.com and LiveNation.com.
Demand for RAMMSTEIN's pyrotechnic-laden performances has been so great in Europe, where they regularly play capacity level soccer stadiums, the band spent nearly a full decade without setting foot on North American shores. In December 2010, the sextet returned to North America for two sold out shows including a performance at Madison Square Garden. RAMMSTEIN followed with a nine-day trek of major North American cities in spring 2011.
The Los Angeles Times described the live experience as "epic stagecraft on a Wagnerian scale, several notches up from most arena rock."
RAMMSTEIN first stormed America in 1998, touring with a set based on their Grammy-nominated breakthrough second release, "Sehnsucht", featuring "Du Hast", the song that brought the world’s attention to the band. During their 1998 "Family Values" tour, praise was high, as well as indignation: band members were jailed in the U.S. on indecency charges due to the highly provocative live show.
