Rammstein announces festival dates for summer 2016 – no news on new album
A few weeks ago we reported about an upcoming news update from the Rammstein front. A picture which the band posted showed they had regrouped to rehearse on what we hoped would be the work for their first new material in six years ( “Liebe Ist Für Alle Da” was released in 2009).
Alas, like we then posted it could also have meant that the band had started rehearsing for a new tour as the band hadn’t played a live show since the Wacken Festival in 2013.
And that has now been confirmed. Rammstein will headline a range of international festivals in summer 2016. The first shows were confirmed today:
- AT / VIENNA / Rock in Vienna / 03.-05.06.16
- CH / LUCERNE / Allmend Rockt / 04.06.16
- GB / DONNINGTON / Download / 10.06.16
- FR / PARIS / Download / 12.06.16
- DK / ODENSE / Tinderbox / 23.-25.06.16
- DE / SCHEESSEL / Hurricane / 24.-26.06.16
- DE / TUTTLINGEN / Southside / 24.-26.06.16
- BE / WERCHTER / Rock Werchter / 01.07.16
Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
Since youâre here âŠ
⊠we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we havenât put up a paywall â we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Lineâs independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine â and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
