Rammstein in Manchester

El Kapitano · Feb 6, 2005, 06:57 PM

I've Just got back from seeing Rammstein in Manchester at the MEN Arena.

WHAT AN AWESOME SHOW!!! I've seen pink floyd, ozzy osbourne, the who, deep purple, led zep, motorhead, hawkwind, joy division, green day, blink 182, zz top etc. and apart from metallica NO ONE has even come close to a stage show like this....friggin' awesome. Highly recommended.

Now it's time for some kip (if my ears'll stop ringing

)

Best concert ive been too was a Korn concert but Rob Zombie was opening. Zombie upstaged Korn so bad. so zombie was the best concert ive ever been too.

Ive seen Metallica, slipknot, korn, rob zombie, ICP, System of a Down, Disturbed, Kittie. Black Label Society (zakk wylde is the friggin man), Henry Rollins. i cant even remember them all.

Congrats, A little heavy for me these days Ramstein, but I enjoyed Green Day at the M.E.N. last week.

Try living in Idaho...you have to travel to Salt Lake City, Portland, Seattle, Vancouver, or San Francisco to see any good shows. But it's kind of worth it - in the past six years since I've lived in Idaho, I've seen:

(Numbered list indicates chronological order and bands playing together)
1. The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Smashing Pumpkins(one of the last shows)
2. GWAR(twice), Bad Acid Trip(played two shows on the same tour together)
3. TOOL(twice), Meshuggah(1st time), Tomahawk(2nd time)
4. aperfectcircle, AudioSlave, Jane's Addiction(Lollapalooza!)
5. 311, Zebrahead(they played at my High School Auditorium!)
6. PowerMan 5000, Korn, Papa Roach(they all SUCKED

)
7. The Misfits, Murphy's Law(the BEST punk show I've ever seen)
8. AFI, Rancid, The Distillers(the WORST punk show I've ever seen)
9. Eyes Adrift(Krist Novaselic's other band after Sweet 75

)
10. BB King(

)

Not too bad for living in the most technologically and socially backwards state in the U.S.

Ahh...Meshuggah, ive played on the same gig as them back in 92 or 93, before they got big. It was a local thing here in my town called "Speed Convention" They rocked even back then, awesome musicians..very technically able to say the least.

Likewise

Well last nite I saw Live Aus Berlin and i was greatly impressed. The whole performance was amazing, especially the pyrotechnics. They played songs from Herzeleid and Sehnsucht. Even checked out a few of their videos. "Keine Lust" is hilarious

I would really like to see them live

md5 · Feb 20, 2005, 01:18 PM

Dang, missed 'em

I'll definitely go to their next live concert

Skrov · Feb 21, 2005, 08:27 PM

You used to play? I never knew that. Who did you play for?

pr0digal jenius · Feb 21, 2005, 09:07 PM

too bad they never come to the states

I love concerts:

Metallica, Linkin park, Mudvayne, Deftones, Limp Bizkit, Sum41, 30 Seconds to Mars, New Found Glory, Stone Temple Pilots, Bush, Offspring, Foo Fighters, Adema, Guster, Hoobastank, etc

Also seen DJ Tiesto for you techno nuts

Drakon · Feb 21, 2005, 09:09 PM

New Found Glory sucks!!!

pr0digal jenius · Feb 21, 2005, 09:12 PM

I like the music, but their live show is terrible

Callandor · Feb 22, 2005, 01:27 AM

But you gotta admit, the stage props they use during their live performances are nothing short of amazing tho...

L-E · Feb 22, 2005, 02:43 AM

I saw Rammstein live here in Oslo, Norway, and what a concert!!!! They kept the whole crowd in the palms of their hands the whole concert.....Awesome..!!!!!

The most amusing was the song "Mein Teil" wich is about this german cannibal who searched the internet for a dude that wanted to be eaten. This case was on trial in 2003 i believe...anyway Till Lindemann was pushing a HUGE kettle around stage, with a guy in it! And dressed in an leather apron and having a butcher's knife for a mic.....hilarious!!!!!

This is a must see concert......!!!!!!

El Kapitano · Feb 22, 2005, 03:20 PM

That guy in the kettle was the keyboard player (strange dude he is.) and in Manchester Till Lindeman was firing a bloody great flamethrower under the kettle with the keyboard player still inside.
