Watch Rammstein guitarist Richard Kruspe play Du Hast to fans on a street in Mexico City
While German metal heavyweights Rammstein were in Mexico City for a three-night run at Foro Sol earlier this month, guitarist Richard Kruspe took to the streets to perform one of the band's most popular songs.
Wearing his stage gear and armed with what looks like a ESP E-II RZK-I Burnt Richard Z Signature, the guitarist treated gathered fans to a stripped back version Du Hast. The song, taken from their 1997 album Sehnsucht, has enjoyed 371,810,000 streams on Spotify to date. We can't remember the last time a Rammstein song wasn't accompanied by a retina-searing spectacle.

Metallica's guitarist also sat in on the band's Infinity-era single Wheel In The Sky on the night.
"Had a wonderful couple days hanging out with Neal and the guys from Journey," Hammett wrote afterwards on Instagram. "Thanks so much guys for having me jam on Wheel In the Sky, super fun and hope to hang again soon! Much, much Aloha!!!!"
Journey guitarist Schon also posted on social media about the unexpected Cali-jam, alongside a photo of himself and Hammett onstage.
"Had a great time with Kirk Hammett of Metallica last night at 2nd Sold Out Journey show in Hawaii Neal blaisdell Center Honolulu," Schon tweeted. "I put together a jam today for Wheel w/ Enter Sandman."

Def Leppard and Mötley Crüe on tour to Europe
In a recent interview with Chiles Radio Futuro, Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen, was asked if fans can expect to see the band tour South America in support of the group's latest LP, "Diamond Star Halos".
He replied, “Definitely. Of course, this year we are going to tour the United States with Mötley Crüe, Poison and Joan Jett. And it starts in a couple of weeks… But the tour will be three years - at least three years - for the album. We're doing America this year. Next summer we will definitely come to Europe »
The very very exciting "The Stadium Tour" with Def Leppard together with Mötley Crüe, Posion and Joan Jett & The Blackhearts was to start already on June 21, 2020 in San Antonio, USA, but was postponed due to Covid-19.
But now it's happening!
The tour starts on June 16, 2022 in Atlanta. New venues are constantly being added to the tour schedule as of now counts as many as 37 locations in the United States. The "closing concert" on the tour in the USA is per now dated 09.09.22 at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
Getting "The Stadium Tour" to Europe next year will be great!
Horror rock with Alice Cooper in Oslo Spektrum!
Rock legend Alice Cooper made an entire evening out of his visit to Oslo Spektrum this 7th of june 2022, with Frankenstein and other nightmares embedded in the stage show.
Alice Cooper, or Vincent Furnier as he is actually called, has been on the throne of so-called horror rock since the early 1970s when his career took off with immortal hits such as "School's Out" and albums such as "Billion Dollar Babies". He quickly became known for his bloody, effective stage shows, and has kept it going ever since with varying effects on his audience.
Around 1990, he got a new lease of life with the first monster hit "Poison" from the album "Trash", which he followed up with "Hey Stoopid". He has also now in the 2000s experienced a renaissance that especially the ongoing tour is marked by. It is five years since he was last in Norway, in 2017, and now this year he can celebrate that it is 50 years since he released his biggest hit.

This insane live footage of Måneskin at Rock Am Ring shows why they're rock 'n' roll's most exciting band right now
Måneskin continue to be one of the most hyped and widely discussed rock 'n' roll bands on Planet Earth right now, and some new live footage posted by the band on social media has gone some way as to explaining exactly why that is.
The Italian four-piece, who recently returned to Eurovision to perform a live debut of new track Supermodel, having won the whole competition back in 2021, seemingly continue to sell out venues and steal the show at festival bills wherever they go.
This past weekend, the Rome natives played German mega-festivals Rock Am Ring and Rock Im Park, which take place every year in Nürburg and Nuremberg respectively and share the majority of their lineups. Playing Rock Am Ring on Friday June 3 and Rock Im Park on Saturday June 4, Måneskin shared a stacked bill with the likes of pop punk legends Green Day, much-hyped modern metalcore firebrands Spiritbox and, er, German techno mainstays Scooter.

My Hero - Foo Fighters | Rockin'1000, Paris 2022
Amongst the many musical tributes paid to late Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins, it's unlikely any will be as spectacular as that paid by musical collective The Rockin' 1000 at their recent show at the Stade de France in Paris.
With 1008 band members spread out across the stadium floor, the band's set climaxed with a cover of the Foos' My Hero, dedicated to Hawkins by band founder Fabio Zaffagnini, who originally set up the Rockin' 1000 project to attract the Foo Fighters to play a show in his hometown of Cesena, Italy, in 2014.
After attracting the required amount of musicians, Zaffagnini made a video of the collective performing another Foo Fighters song, Learn To Fly, in July 2015. Mission accomplished: the success of the video – 60 million YouTube views and counting – led to the band actually playing a show in Cesena that November.
