The less gigs the more each one will cost in a sense. Angela Merkel announced that all mass gatherings in Germany are banned until August 31st meaning the Germany gigs are out. Rammstein are hardly going to continue with the rest of the tour so it's inevitable that the whole thing will be rescheduled.
