Information

• After the second verse of Rammstein, the band started playing the Eskimos and Egypt remix of the song.
• This was one of the few times Rammstein performed a remix live.
• This concert was attended by Bob Biggs, the founder of Slash Records. After seeing the band live he agreed on releasing Sehnsucht in the United States.
• During the intro of Asche zu Asche, the keyboard sequence seemed to be pitched too high. It got fixed after a few seconds.
• At the start of Rammstein, the igniting mechanism of Till's coat did not fully ignite his back. Noticing this, a crew member ran up to him and ignited his back manually.
