Yeh Omg me and my Bessie katie were saying exactly that earlyer. That we dont want to call them that but thats sort of what its becoming  The theyy should come be sell outs here ! I say they should have finished breaking the whole of europe instead of missing out parts and skipping to America ! (I know they tryed but they should have finished the job lol ) |

What really guts me, is that I can remember a post I made a while ago, strongly saying that they won't move there. That there is a BIG difference between loving a place, and calling it home. And I believed it, truly.
And it really breaks my heart that I cannot make that same defence now, because honestly? I just don't know anymore. 
They can just Piss Off then because to be fair, they wouldn't have Europe to fall back on if they do...
The amount of international fans I talk to and they say that they'll ditch the band if they move over there...
watch out scouting for girls, I'm your new fan |

That's not an accurate quote though and there's also some marketing in all the US things just like in all things. It's like musicians saying I love this and that country in whichever country they happen to be at the moment. I mean, I get annoyed with the USA stuff sometimes and it frustrates me but it also frustrates me how things get blown out of proportion every now and then or are just being implied. Like the time in some interview Bill's subs read "the American album" when he only said "the album". Hm.
I wouldn't ditch them if they'd move there... it's not the place they live or move to why I like and support a band. However, I still don't see them move there except if it was temporarily for work (or maybe a holiday home ha ha). They love Germany too much.

I don't like this country right now, I'm froze but yeah, I don't think I'd ditch them!
I mean, I just spent £28 on mags in France for posters of the four turnips, argh!
hmm....
I've noticed the subs aren't 100% correct

LOL. Four turnips. I don't mean to fuel the fire, but this is what the thread is for and we all have to get it out - THEY'RE DOING A SIGNING IN MEXICO?  ?? Okay, I know the promotion last year in the UK sucked. And the whole thing went tits up, but GOD DAMN we didn't get a signing. We got one lousy gig that sold out because of the mainlanders. ARGH. It's not fair. Not fair at all. And I feel like writing that and sending it to every contact in my address book with a big F U. But I won't. *sigh* Claire |

How much is a FLight to the US?
Im a nomad
i could go follow them around for a month with a big sign
saying
'The Uk is Always here....'
and just BE EVERYWHERE THEY GO
like a creepy street preacher predicting the end of the world.
I could even be all Freaky and Carry a BoomBox playing Rage Against the machines' killing in the name of.
LOL
theyre doing so many signings in the Us..
I mean in Paris they didnt doa sigining, i would have left my place at the front to go to a signing... but yeah... it seems like almost every concert they have a signing... And Im Making every American Fan i know Casually mention the Uk and asking if they know where the hell my kangaroo is...
but yeah, i know i havent been waitin for them to be in the uk as long as you'all... but i mean... its beyond unfair.

You know what else makes me really friggin mad? And I've been seething about this all night and actually dreamt about moaning on here about it .....
The sheer audacity of those d*mn interviewers. Tokio Hotel are GERMAN. They live in GERMANY. Their friends and family are in GERMANY. And yet they just assume "Oh, hey guys, are you gonna come and live here now?" Like their country is so amazing that everyone can't wait to ditch their lives to go have a better one in the great US of A.
UGH
And lol Kate - I'll come with ya!

ok.. im annoyed right now..
i was talking to a girl in the us i know... i hate her right now
she went to there concert in detroit (it was last night i think)
and Bill said during the concert that they would be back there next year..
now shes going on about how there will be a us tour next year
and i went..
'oh that would probably be for a world tour for the new album'
She said some not so smart things about how doing a European tour is the last thing they want now theyre famous in america.
i said some not so choice words to her... and then got personal and made her cry...
but... AMERICA NEXT YEAR AS WELL..
Lots of people are claiming bills saying at concerts they wil be back next year..
I am not amused

I'm not that surprised really. They will need to maintain the success they're having. I heard they'll be back there in the autumn, so next year is not so bad. LOL.
It's too early to know whether that will mean anything to us. I swear, they still maintain that they are working on the UK situation, but who knows.
All I know is that TH will release their new album and they probably will tour the world with it. Especially since they will want to improve on the chart position they had with Scream. Whether that will include the UK, lol, is anyone's guess.

I'm going to kid nap the four turnips that secretly go by the name of Bill, Tom, Georg and Gustav.
Also, I don't understand the whole Mexico thing and I really don't like the fact that they've dropped Canada already!
They have no new dates for them!
GAH!
Can't we just beat them with egg beaters?

Okay, Bill said they're going back to ~Detroit~. How specific is that? If they announce it any time soon, I might just ARGH.

Why Detroit?
Do they want to be shot there?
They're a really weird band and they all need a slap (:
We could edit all of the interviews to make them how we want them and I don't like them in America, I like them in Canada!
