Rammstein on Schalke: enthusiasm meets frustration with high drink prices
In Gelsenkirchen, Rammstein's European tour has reached a striking highlight. The band performed in the Veltins Arena for five days and attracted a total of 250,000 enthusiastic fans. Despite the magnificent shows, some visitors remain a fader aftertaste due to the high prices for drinks.
split fan opinions according to the concerts
On social platforms such as Facebook, the concert is predominantly referred to as an "unforgettable experience". Many fans praise the atmosphere and the performance of Rammstein. One user describes his enthusiasm: "Nice people, horny atmosphere, great show with a hammer band." Nevertheless, there are also critical voices that denounce the price of water and other drinks during the event.
Water prices under criticism
Especially during the hot concert evening, at which the temperatures were almost 25 degrees, the price of five euros for water was incomprehensible to many fans. A critical comment on Facebook sums it up: "The concert was really cool. But to request five euros for water at the heat on Tuesday is outrageous."
Beverage prices and the hangover
Price policy not only causes resentment, but is not determined by the band itself. Rather, it is the responsible catering company in the Schalke Stadium that determines these prices. A fan even reports seven euros for a beer and 13 euros for a liter of water from a cup. Despite these high costs, some fans seem to keep humor and indulge in memories of the show.
Future view for fans
In the run-up to the new football season, however, there is hope for a change. The organizer has announced that the prices for half a liter of water should be reduced to just two euros, which could be a positive development for future events. This measure could then reduce the frustration of the fans from the previous concerts.
In summary, it can be said that the concerts of Rammstein on Schalke were impressive and stirring, but the high drink prices dampened some fans in their enthusiasm. The discussion about pricing is an important topic that not only influences the mood at such major events, but also provides information about the needs and expectations of fans.
