While we wouldn't even call this one an "escape from the studio" so much as it is a "snack run," Rammstein will be playing its only U.S. show at The Toyota Park in Bridgeview, IL, better known as the Chicago Open Air Festival. The festival will take place between July 15 and 17, with a full lineup announcement coming on February 16.

This is incredibly exciting news because Rammstein playing outdoors means that Rammstein can go really crazy with the pyrotechnics.

Discounted early bird general admission three-day weekend tickets are available for purchase now at www.ChicagoOpenAir.com. As for ticket variations:
