A couple of pixellated photos for those interested, taken from behind the fences on the far end of the venue at Vingio Parkas, Vilnius, 18.05.2023.
- Schneider has made changes to his outfit, it seems darker with some shoulder pauldrons. He has also dyed his hair darker. Only he and Flake wore costumes.
- Paul still has grey hair
- Till has dyed his hair blonde
- Flake still has his golden suit
- Oliver wore a hoodie and sweatpants, and he did NOT have drop-crotch pants, so you could see his long legs!
- Richard was wearing sweatpants and and his red caps, but also a long coat on top of it.
The sound was fantastic. I really can't wait for the shows!
Could you please please translate what they're saying? Sounds like something funny

Hi 👋🏻
So this is the video in question (x):
It's actually just Till doing shits and giggles during 'Engel' like the "ahaaaa yeeaah 😏" part like a sleazy pop singer and Paul enthusiastically saying "now don't sing along 😃", all in all just a wonderfully chaotic rehearsal vibe 🫶🏻

He didn't manage to scare the guitarist, but Till distracted Paul enough to make him play the wrong notes, and the vocalist made sure to make fun of him for it. | 🎥 Kim E., kidarctica
More of my photos from the 2023 Europe Stadium Tour. It is not a secret that Oliver Riedel is my favourite Rammstein member, but it was really challenging to photograph him this tour. His initial outfit had his entire face covered by the visor, and when he took it off, my camera didn't want to focus on his face because of his dark make-up. I have so many bad, unfocused shots of him, but fortunately, some turned out okay.
L: 20.05.2023 LIFAD Rehearsal. I may or may not have screamed when Oliver Riedel first walked onto the stage wearing his new costume. It was surreal.
R: 22.05.2023 Vilnius. I failed getting a proper shot of his new outfit during the rehearsal, but managed to get a good one during the first regular show.
L: 27.05.2023 Helsinki. I love how this shot came out.
R: 28.05.2023 Helsinki. Oliver often looks really focused when he comes out to dance.
L: 02.06.2023 Odense. Oliver through confetti.
R: 03.06.2023 Odense. Oliver looked a bit tired in the photos I took on this day. It could have been the drama taking its toll on the guys.
L: 07.06.2023 Munich. Oliver doing his Puppe outro dance.
R: 08.06.2023 Munich. Oliver, the otherworldly creature.
L: 10.06.2023 Munich. While I loved Oliver's costume, I did miss seeing his face.
R: 11.06.2023 Munich. Oliver leaning on his bass during the Du riechst so gut freeze.

R: 16.07.2023 Berlin. Oliver smiling after doing his Puppe outro dance. It had been my goal to capture him smiling at least once during the tour, and this photo made me incredibly happy.

R: 22.07.2023 Paris. Oliver kneeling during Zeit.

R: 31.07.2023 Chorzów. Oliver looking pretty majestic.
L: 03.08.2023 Brussels. Oliver smiling, again(!), as he visit to the front of the stage during Du riechst so gut.
R: 04.08.2023 Brussels. Oliver probably accidentally stepped on his pants during the Du riechst so gut freeze, and it looked like his butt almost popped out of his pants.
05.03.2023 Brussels. The last bow of the last show of the tour.
It was a great summer, and an emotional one. I managed to interact with Oliver on stage, not much, but everything counts. When the next tour leg starts, I will be back and keep showing my appreciation for my favourite musician.
All photos taken by me. Please don't share without credit.
Last night I got back home from Prague and I still can’t believe it really happened, the whole experience of travelling around half the world and getting to see Rammstein performing so close to me was the most surreal and amazing thing ever, I’ve never been happier 💗
I was planning to post the photos and videos I took during the rehearsal but I think I’d rather keep those just for myself. Who knows, maybe I’ll change my mind eventually. For know I’ll leave this one:
