Featured Events

Big Concerts are excited to announce that the German, Industrial metal band, RAMMSTEIN will be touring South Africa for the first time ever in February 2011....


RAMMSTEIN, who have achieved particular fame for their hugely over-the-top stage shows peppered with pyrotechnics and special effects, will be performing on 9th February at the Grand Arena, GrandWest Cape Town and on the 11th February at the Coca-Cola Dome Johannesburg.
 
Some bands entertain, Rammstein destroy! There are so few genuine rock monsters waiting to take up the mantle created by the likes of AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Kiss, Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. Well, look no more: enter Rammstein! With influences of industrial hard rock, heavy metal and electronic music diluted by punk rock, and gothic sounds, Rammstein have sold over 15 million records worldwide, including multiple Gold albums and DVD releases in South Africa.
 
Rammstein are one of the most successful German-language bands of all time. Bass guitarist Oliver Riedel once commented that ‘German language suits heavy metal music.  French might be the language of love, but German is the language of anger’.
 
Since their formation in 1994, Rammstein has had no changes in their band line-up. Featuring Till Lindemann on vocals, Richard Z. Kruspe and Paul Landers on guitars, Oliver Riedel on bass guitar, Christoph Schneider on drums and Christian Lorenz on keyboards.
 
Throughout their career Rammstein have performed at some of the world’s most prestigious festivals and arena venues including The Big Day Out, Rock Am Ring, and Sonicsphere Festival, and New York City’s Madison Square Gardens, which they recently sold out within thirty minutes of going on sale.  Their first tour to South Africa is guaranteed to give meaning to the fans motto “Other Bands Play.  Rammstein Burns”.
