Rammstein keyboardist taken to the hospital

At this time not much info is out, but Rammstein keyboardist, Flake, was not at tonight's show in Copenhagen, Denmark. At the start of the show, frontman Till Lindemann made the announcement "Ladies and Gentlemen, Due to a severe infection, our keyboard player Flake Lorenz was taken yesterday to the hospital. We did not want to cancel this concert and have brought in a substitute; a warm round of applause for Alf Atorthat (Knorkator keyboardist)."

It is unclear at this time how many more shows Flake might miss due to his illness, but he is reportedly already out and doing better. People in attendance have confirmed that the band didn't walk Alf like a dog or make him use the treadmill.


Rammstein will release "Ich Tu Dir Weh" as the next video and single of the band's highly acclaimed album Liebe Ist Fur Alle Da which was released in October via Vagrant Records in conjunction with Universal Records.

Be sure to pick up the super limited edition sex box at this location.

The single for Ich Tu Dir Weh will be released on January 15th in Europe and January 19 in the U.S. as a digital download.
