Once upon a time, there was a German metal band that made beautiful music.
Over the span of 16 years they produced the most glorious, engaging, and heart pounding rock ever to assault the eardrums of humankind.
Somewhere inside those 16 years however, they seemed to forget about their fans in North America. They appeared to think that our love affair with them went out with “Du Hast”. They seemed unaffected by the fact that with absolutely no promotion of any kind their latest album, “Liebe ist fur alle da” debuted at 13 on our charts. They seemed to think that one show after 10 years on American soil would be enough.
Then they sold out Madison Square Garden in 13 minutes.
Thankfully, this loyal fan and her friend were able to get tickets - although not together. But, yours truly is officially going to see the world’s greatest rock band on December 11th of this year.
I am beyond happy but I also kind of want to punch Till Lindemann, Richard Kruspe, Paul Landers, Christoph Schneider, Oliver Riedel and Flake Lorenz in their faces.
RIGHT IN THEIR FACES.
YOU’VE HAD FANS HERE FOR YEARS.
YOU’RE MORONS FOR IGNORING US FOR SO LONG.
I still love you though and look forward to giving you my voice in a few months.
