Black Magazine - Spain

Black Magazine

Cover: ‘Tokio Hotel took Spain by storm’
Like a real fan.

This is how we lived TH concerts. The first time is always special, and this one was magical. Bill, Tom, Georg and Gustav came to Spain and they did not disappoint.

Our stomachs flipped with excitement when we arrived to one of the most waited concerts. The ‘Go TH’ screams filled our ears and finally an intense night began..

They jumped on stage with an energy that put across their excitement. While they chained up songs, winks and special effects our legs did not stop. We could not stop jumping and Bill asked us to keep doing it!

When the Scream! moment began our throats were already sore but that is exactly what we did: scream. But the night had just began. “Are you okay?” asked a smiling Bill.

We kept rocking. We went crazy with Don’t Jump and Ready, Set, Go! and Reden made us shiver “Dedicated to my brother” said Bill.

The night was ending but there was a hit left: Monsoon. He sounded tired so we helped him with the chorus. Few tracks after, Rescue Me became the last song.

Before leaving Bill threw his towel towards the crowd, Tom and Georg theirs picks and Gustav his drumsticks. Then everybody clapped while recording the moment in our minds.

We finally saw them and with the amazing greets they received, they will surely come back soon!
Tokio Hotel: “Success is a drug”

Black-clothed, wearing dark glasses and giving us a smiling “hello”. This is how the Germans who rocked Spain in an unforgetable weekend appeared. Since then, 15 minutes with them…

Willkommen!! Nice to see you here in Spain again..
Bill: Same here! Fans over here are marvelous. Besides, we are told we have a lot of success here, so we are very happy.

Let’s go through it slowly. How was your staying in Barcelona?
B: It was a very beautiful performance. People were queuing for days, which dazzled us.

Sure! We were waiting for a long time, and since Madrid…
B: Yeah…we felt sorry for letting you down, but it was something unstoppable.

Don’t worry, we understand it! Are you recovered at all?
B: Yes, I finally can say it’s like always! It was a bad moment in our career. Days before stopping I was really harmed. Besides, it’s frightening when someone is raking through your vocal chords. Now we’re going to rock!

Yeah…you’re working a lot!
B: Hahahaha, we’re workaholics. We’ve been three years working without a break. We only have two holiday weeks in a year, but that’s what we wanted.

Don’t you prefer tranquility?
Tom: We are the ones writing the agenda. Of course, sometimes we are exhausted, for instance when we travel to three different cities within 24 hours!

It was this way: Friday 27th Barcelona, Saturday 28th Madrid…
B: And Sunday in Lisbon! But performing in Rock in Rio is amazing.

Sunday 19th? Did you miss the match between Germany and Spain? Germans were in a bad way after the match!
Gustav: Yeah..to be honest, I bid for a 3-2 winning Germany, of course.

You don’t have the Eurocopa, but you have money, success, girls…
B: There’s something of them lacking! Hahaha. The four of us are still single! We’re always thinking about our dreams and success hooks. It’s like a drug, you always want more: more glory, more concerts…

So singles, ah? It was said over here that Bill was going out with the majorcan Monica Sanz.
B: Hahaha! That’s not true, I’ve been single for three years, so…

Do you think fans could disappear?
B: Of course! But we know what is living without it. That’s why we appreciate it so much and we hope it to go ahead! Worst days may come, but fans are always a good incentive to go on…

The most important thing is our fans’ said Bill. That’s why we want you to tell us how you lived the landing of the German Monsoon. Thank you so much for sharing it!
