Tour Info
Rammstein's management is not sure if the Leipzig show is cancelled
or not. Dortmund is definitely cancelled, but there is a chance that
Leipzig may still take place, but with a different line-up and new tickets
would need to be purchased. No word if this different line-up still includes
Rammstein....
Management has now confirmed that BOTH Off Limits Festivals have been
cancelled.
July 17, 2002
Cancelled Tour Date
It appears that the Off Limits Festival in Leipzig has also been cancelled now.
July 16, 2002
Cancelled Tour Date
The Off Limits Festival in Dortmund has been cancelled. The reason given was for low ticket sales and Slipknot dropping off. As of now, Leipzig is still on, but with a different line-up. I think Rammstein and Andrew W.K. will still be on it.
Messer
The book with Till's poems and texts is the one titled Messer (knife). It can be found on Amazon.de. It should be released sometime this year, rumored to be in September. The book will supposedly contain new pictures of Till and he will be making a reading tour through Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. There will also be a poetry videoclip to support the book.

Richard's Ring
Richard lost his ring at the Rock Werchter show. From the official site: Richard
has lost an ostentatious ring shortly before the show. It regards a
huge ornated silver ring. Despite of an intensive search, this ring
was nowhere to be found.
Richard emotionally clings to this piece of jewellery due to a very personal
matter.
Of course there will be an appropriate reward.
I hope if someone finds it, they return it....
