Minsk Update

Rammchick has found a new post regarding the Belarus story. It would seem that the promoter for the Minsk show has done his homework, though why he would only now be investigating the show's content I can't fathom.

We have read a lot about the corrupting force that is Rammstein, and the deleterious super-powers they apparently have, so a leavening dose of rational thought is nice, but I can't help but see the humour in this situation. Imagine a mind that considers a band, performing to a small slice of the population, being considered influential enough to cause a crime-wave. Now imagine the owner of that mind in a mosh-pit, surrounded by adrenalised, mesmerised Rammstein fans. Laughing?

I will not be entirely reassured until the show is done and dusted, because the promoter's reassurance and the politicos' response are not by any means the same thing, but this is a positive step, at least, after hearing so much from the humourless prigs who oppose Rammstein. Now we need for the Morality Council to send one of their own to a show, to see for themselves what is on offer. I'm sure Till pouring 'molten metal' onto Flake so he emerges a sparkling butterfly, setting fire to a 'fan', and spraying the audience with mega-spunk will be a most refreshing change for them...
