The shaky video he filmed in 2010

I discovered them in 2001, when a cousin showed me the “Mutter” video in tiny, low-quality resolution — RMV format, the way things were back then. It stuck with me from that point on. In 2010 I traveled alone from my hometown, San Gil, all the way to the field in Bogotá where the concert was set up; I had no one to go with, so I went on my own.

I filmed the show with whatever I had on hand, and I still have that video — I’ve shared it on the Colombian Rammstein community’s Twitter. It comes out pretty shaky, honestly quite shaky: back then image stabilization simply didn’t exist. Even so, it’s one of the few things I have left from that night.

I don’t really have a collection to speak of right now, and that’s exactly why I’m interested in being part of a community — putting together a group with other fans, even importing things together so it comes out cheaper than doing it alone.
