Provoca banda alemana Tokio Hotel lágrimas y alegría entre mexicanos - AOL.COM
Ofrecerá concierto este sábado como parte de la promoción de suálbum "Scream". México, 29 Ago (Notimex).- Con una ovación y lágrimas de emoción, la agrupación Tokio Hotel fue recibida por sus seguidores mexicanos, durante una firma de autógrafos realizada en una plaza comercial en el sur de la ciudad. Ni la larga espera impidió que más de dos mil 600 jóvenes dieran la bienvenida a la banda alemana, en su primera visita a México donde sólo permanecerán por un día más. A pesar de la larga fila, el cansancio y la lluvia, los admiradores de la agrupación no desistieron en su intento por compartir este momento, donde las lágrimas y la alegría se reflejaban en los rostros de las jovencitas que no daban crédito de estar junto a sus ídolos. Algunas seguidoras, luego de recibir la rúbrica, rompían desconsoladas en llanto, asegurando que la firma estampada en sus discos eran su mayor tesoro. Durante la espera los seguidores coreaban los temas de la banda que se escuchaban por el sonido local del establecimiento, donde también decenas de curiosos observaban a las jovencitas, quienes desesperadas besaban y entregaban algunos regalos a los alemanes. Globos, muñecos y algunas cartas, fueron parte de los obsequios que recibieron los artistas, quienes promocionan en México su álbum "Scream". Según datos de los organizadores, solamente dos mil jóvenes recibirían la rúbrica de Tokio Hotel, ya que la promoción señalaba que ese número de copias vendidas tendrían derecho a la firma. La mayoría de los adolescentes, oscilaba entre 15 y 18 años, sin embargo, no faltaron los padres de familia quienes perdieron la pena y subieron al templete para saludar y recibir la rúbrica de Tokio Hotel. Luego de su presentación este sábado en un concierto organizado por una estación de radio viajarán a Los Angeles, California, para seguir con sus compromisos de trabajo.
Tokio Hotel puede visitar próximamente tu ciudad - DESTINO ROCK
El próximo 7 de septiembre tendrá lugar en Los Angeles la ceremonia de entrega de los MTV Video Music Awards 2008. La banda de Magdeburg está nominada en las categorías de Best Pop Video y Best New Artist. Desde la portada de la web oficial se está realizando un llamamiento general para que los Fans voten y han ideado un magnífico reclamo para que los Fans no cesen de votar ya que en el caso de que el grupo salga galardonado, tendrá lugar una enorme fiesta con presencia de la banda en una ciudad europea a modo de celebración y despedida del actual Tour. Asimismo han confirmado que también tendrá lugar una sesión de firma de discos.
Si bien en la categoría de Best Pop Video, han de vérselas con los temibles Jonas Brothers, cuentan con la ventaja, de que en la nominaciones de Best New Artist, es difícil imaginar que Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Jordin Sparks o Taylor Swift hagan sombra a la candidatura de Tokio Hotel. Es por ello, que ya se está empezando a especular sobre la ciudad que tendría el honor de recibir a la banda. Por el momento suenan con mucha fuerza Berlín, al igual que Paris e incluso Londres, donde se dice que la banda intentaría volver con un premio bajo el brazo y su éxito conseguido en los USA para dejarse ver y preparar el terreno para el tercer disco. No hay nada definitivo. Cualquier ciudad europea puede ser la agraciada, incluida alguna de España...

PERO EN CUANTO EMPEZAMOS A TOCAR, CADA UNO REALMENTE ESTUVO EXCITADO Y COMENZARON A GRITAR Y GRITAR DL MISMO MODO AL K STAMOS ACOSTUMBRADOS EN NUESTRA CASA. REALMENTE ESTUVIMOS MUY SORPRENDIDOS. EL TENER FANS NOS DA MUXO PODER Y ENERGIA CUANDO STAMOS TOCANDO. NOS GUSTA ESTO!! ESTO ES MUXO MAS D LO K UNA VEZ ESPERABAMS.
- ESTO ES BASTANTE ASOMBROSO PARA SER VUESTRA PRIMERA VENTA EN TOUR EN EE.UU

CADA UNO TIENE K HACER SUS PROPIAS DECISIONES E IR A TRAVES D SU PROPIA EXPERIENCIA - AVERIGUAR ESO. CADA UNO TIENE K ENCONTRAR SU CAMINO. LA UNICA COSA K YO DIRIA ES K ES IMPORTANTE TOCAR EN VIVO Y DIVERTIRSE XK STO ES TODO. Y ES IMPORTANTE HACER ERRORES. STO ES LO K HICIMOS Y TODAVIA HACEMOS.

NUR TOKIO HOTEL
DIA 10 - Bill's Tour Blog - Part 2
Hi everyone!
Today we had a day off in Chicago and it was gorgeous. But let’s start from the beginning – at the Detroit show and the Oakland signing session at Hot Topic. Well, the show in Detroit was awesome since the venue there was really beautiful and the fans were just incredible…we couldn’t ask for anything better!
the day after the show we departed on our tour bus for Oakland where we met our fans in one of the Hot Topic stores in a mall. The employees at the store were at least as astounded as we at how many fans came out to the signing – it was huge!
To me these signing sessions are always something very special because we get to meet the fans face-to-face and hear so many of their stories, they tell us what moves them and also share their feelings. This is truly inspirational and I get so many ideas for our new songs from that – thanks so much for all of that!
after the in-store we headed towards Chicago. Georg and Tom talked pretty much the whole way about the fans…like who was the sweetest girl or whose number they’d love to have – such dreamers they are sometimes! A highlight on the drive to Chicago was a stop at one of the supermarkets! The bus dropped us right in front of the entrance and I have to tell you: I love these gigantic supermarkets – they just have everything you want, including my favourite sweets, all the fruit you can dream of and even birdhouses – seriously, they carry birdhouses… crazy! On top of that they didn’t even have a cashier – all I bought I had to scan myself at a station where I also had to pay…but you’ll get all the inside scoop about this little supermarket adventure on Tokio Hotel TV soon!
Shortly thereafter we finally arrived in Chicago where we had a day off! As usual we slept in really late but I also wanted to explore the city, which is why we got up particularly early - at 3pm. Gustav had already gone out long before and Georg refused to get up so I had to bug Tom until he finally said he would join me to check out the city! Downtown Chicago was gorgeous – the sun was shining and it had this summer flair that put everyone in a great mood! Chicago as a city seems just perfect – it was a mix of these huge buildings like you see in NYC and the summer flair you experience in L.A., which is basically a perfect mix! Tom and I grabbed a coffee and pretty much explored the city for the rest of the day – Tom was like a tourist the whole time since he took pictures of everything. At the end of the day we visited a cool restaurant on the beach and enjoyed the sunset while having dinner…absolutely WICKED day!!!
That's it for now…
Take care,
Bill

Tom's Tour Blog - TEEN MAG
Welcome everyone to “Tom’s blog”!
Yes, we are finally back on tour! We are travelling from city to city on our bus, meeting so many of our awesome fans and have had some wicked shows so far. Since it’s our first real tour in the States and Canada there has seriously been a lot in store for us. So far we visited New York, New Jersey, Montreal and Cleveland. Let me tell you, each of the shows we played so far has been really special in it’s own way. And we are sooo excited to be nominated at the MTV VMAs for “Best Pop Video” and “Best New Artist” thanks to all our fans!
The kick off for our concert run in New Jersey went surprisingly well, which worries me a little. Usually during the first show something goes wrong but this time everything was so smooth! Well, obviously Georg missed some notes but that happens all the time (lol!).
On our way to Montreal it looked like our smooth run would come to an end...we had to wait at the Canadian border for ages since there was a Greyhound bus ahead of us and the officers searched every little bit of it – they even checked all the clothes the people brought with them in their suitcases. Luckily when it was our turn, the officers took it easy – they let us pass without taking our bus apart. Security checks and border controls are definitely not my thing… I just don’t have the very best experience with them!
In Montreal (to be precise, in Saint-Jean-Sur-Richelieu) we performed at an awesome festival with about twenty thousand people. The weather was great and throughout the whole day all kinds of different hot-air balloons rose to the sky. The coolest one of them looked like the head of Darth Vader and I would have loved to be on board that one! But we stayed on the ground and performed a show, which was great – all the fans sang along to each of the songs with us…just amazing!
After the show we had a quick stopover at the hotel where we took a shower (yes, Georg did too) and then it was time to get on the tour bus to travel overnight to Cleveland. On the bus we played video games. We played a guitar playing challenge and obviously I beat all the other guys – what a surprise!
After that I went to sleep and woke up the next day in Cleveland where it was really sunny…at least in the morning. Pretty much the rest of the day it rained so we spent most of the day (it was an off day) watching DVDs. Gustav also had a little excursion to Lake Erie and when he came back he was soaking wet - not because he jumped in the lake but because it started to rain so hard!
Let me tell you guys, it’s pretty exciting to be on tour in North America – so many new things to explore. It’s great to be here and I’m looking forward to seeing YOU at one of the concerts soon.
Thanks for all your support at all the concerts so far and also at the MTV VMAs where you all made it possible for us to be nominated TWICE....that’s just unbelievable. Please keep on voting for us as “Best New Artist”
Take care!
Tom

Hi guys it’s Bill!
It’s been a pretty busy summer since our last stay here in the U.S.! We performed at tons of festivals all over Europe but now we are back in the States and the first thing I have to say is: THANK YOU so much for all your support these last few days. Being nominated at the MTV VMAs was really unbelievable for us! Your votes made this happen and we’re totally blown away – it’s sooo exciting!
But let’s have a look at what has happened so far in America: We had a great start in NYC where we spent most of our first week at MTV's TRL, which was pretty cool.
Then, on Thursday night we had the kick off gig for our American concert run in New Jersey. The whole concert was wicked and we had an awesome time with all the fans!
After the New Jersey show we boarded our tour bus to head to Montreal, Canada where we performed at a festival and then it was already time to come back to the U.S.!
Actually, right now we are on our way to Cleveland and we’ll be spending all of August touring in the States so make sure to check our concert dates. We hope to see all of you guys at one of our shows!
Oh, the other three guys just told me to say “Hi” from them! Take care and hope to see you soon!

TH answers YOUR questions! - TEEN MAG
A few weeks ago on teenmag, we asked you to send us questions you wanted to band to answer. We got thousands and, here is the first batch of queries submitted by fans like you - along with their answers!
1. How did you get in to music? (Lysa Thompson, Sioux Falls, SD)
Bill: We all started really early. Tom and I started when we were about seven. Back then it was only the two of us. Tom got into playing the guitar because of our step dad and I really wanted to sing – I was always too lazy to learn an instrument :-). We started writing our own songs and performed wherever we could – at weddings, birthday parties and little clubs.
Gustav: I started playing the drums when I was about five. I always used to drum with my fingers on everything that came along :-) - so my parents decided to give it a real try and got me lessons.
Georg: I was in high school when my friends decided to start a band. They where looking for a bass player and I thought “That’s pretty cool, I can do that”…so that’s how I started.
2. You've just been nominated for Best Pop Video at the MTV VMA's. How does it feel to be gaining so much success here in the U.S.? (Alison Luedke, Oswego, IL)
Bill: Oh my god, it is sooooo amazing and we’re all so excited. This is something we didn’t dare to dream of!
Tom: We all freaked out when we received the great news. Our fans are really amazing and we can’t believe that they made this happen for us.
3. Why did you pick Tokio Hotel to be your new band name? (Anita Morales, Rockwall, TX)
Tom: That happened a few years ago. We decided to look for a new band name when we started to work in the studio – so it must’ve been at least five years ago. That was a really new beginning for us and we wanted to start with a name that really fit us.
4. Bill, what is your favorite song that you wrote? (Alexis Snyder, Saxton, PA)
Bill: That’s really hard and I can’t actually pick one ‘cause every song has a special meaning to me and is personal. But if I had to I probably would choose “Live Every Second” - that’s one of the first songs I wrote. I was eight or nine back then.
5. Were the four of you always interested in music? (Saadya Philyor, Saint Petersburg, FL)
Bill: Yes, music has always been what we all wanted to do. We put all our time and energy in music. During the week we went to school and on the weekends we played wherever we could. What we are doing today is all we ever wanted. And I can’t even imagine what I would have become besides a singer.
Tom: Hmmm, if I wasn’t a musician I would probably work at the playboy mansion as Hugh Hefner’s personal assistant. (lol) Georg would work as construction worker and do a lot of body building in his free time and Gustav would be a trucker!
6. Tom: Is it true that you still have your teddy bear? (Jen Ii, Sandefjord, int, NO)
Tom: You must be talking about Georg. He has his one with him all the time. And guess what name he gave him?? Tom!!! Georg: Ohhhhhh sure….
7. What do you like to do during your free time?? (Anetia Jones, Norfolk, VA)
Bill: Sleep! We sleep in as long as possible.
Tom: If nobody wakes me up I sleep ‘till the afternoon.
Georg: Yeah, sleeping, eating, sleeping again, watching DVDs and going to bed
Bill: Gustav is a little different – he’s really an early bird.
Gustav: Yes, I wake up quiet early and then I like to meet friends, ride my bike, do all kinds of sports and spend time with my family.
8. Did any of you guys have imaginary friends when you were younger and if so, what were their names? (Kendall Green-Grouse, Halifax, NS, CA)
All (laughing): NO!
Tom (laughing): Well, to tell you a secret: Georg has some imaginary friends and they might be his only ones besides us…
9. Where do you see yourself in ten years? (Kim Leblanc, St-Paul de Joliette, QC, CA)
Bill: Hopefully on stage!
All: Yes!Bill: We really want to do this as long as possible – till we’re old and gray :-)
10. Which part of the world that have you visited have you liked the most? (Crissy Stubbs, Douglas, GA)
Bill: Ohhh, that’s a hard one…! Each and every single country has it’s own nice and special qualities, they are all very different and hard to compare!
Tom: In Russia there are the best parties.
Georg: We all love Italian food – so Italy is great as well.
Gustav: Yeah, and the French have such a sweet accent “Guestaw”… Bill: We also love America! The food, N.Y. , L.A., the weather is so great, and as we are traveling through the middle of the country now we are learning that there are lots of amazing places to discover, it’s just awesome!
Tom: I have to say, there are hot girls everywhere, I wanna meet them all! But we are always happy to come home once in a while to be with our families and friends, that is so important!
