Reports over the weekend have described how Rammstein frontman Till Lindemann was questioned by police in Russia over a planned – but then cancelled – festival appearance.
The vocalist was set to perform on August 29 in Tver (as well as the Spasskaya Bashnya festival in Moscow on September 4 - 5), but German newspaper Bild (via Consequence ) said that Till was questioned at his hotel before the set due to the event being in violation of COVID-19 restrictions (the festival was ultimately cancelled).
"It is known that they were warned by the authority on the restrictions and health needs due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Russia, where massive events are banned for now," said a source.
