Well, Ourzone are the number 1 online magazine that give information on bands and stuff. They like the interaction between bands and fans too; which is always good.
Basically, I was reading through their latest mag and decided I would email them. Then I thought *lightbulb* maybe this could be a fan-action thingy! Forgive me if it's not.
So i did email them. Here's a link to contact them.

I emailed the fans@ourzonemag.com
and this is what i said: Heyy,
I have been a fan of your magazine for quite a while now & the other day an idea sprung upon me and I wondered if there was a possibility that you could help me out.
For the past year and a half, I have been a tremendous fan of the German Rock Band Tokio Hotel. Everything about them is magical and since hearing their music, I have been inspired to do many things. They are a four piece band that write their own songs, create their own music in both English and German and help their fans by writing songs they can identify with.
They have been playing for a while, are big in America and are starting a European tour with over 30 venues. Unfortunately, the UK is not included in this tour and I, like many other fans, feel that is because the UK fails to notice them. Apart from being shown on MTV a few times this year and having small articles in the Bliss magazine, most other mags have shunned them, without even knowing what they are really like. Tokio Hotel are more than a band to the majority of their fans; thier songs are more than just a jumble of words thrown against a tune, these songs actually have meaning. The band have done more than just introduce me to music I never believed i'd listen to, but they have introduced me to new friends, a new hobby and a new approach to foreign music. They earn tons of awards and work twice as hard as most bands because they create albums that are English as well as in their mother tongue and I feel that isn't taken into consideration.
This is where the Tokio hotel fans need your help. We would hugely appreciate it if Tokio Hotel were shown in your magazine. Even if it's a tiny article just saying their name, this would help tons. We need to give them more attention in the UK and grow our fanbase a little more so we have more of an effect on them. Maybe then they will come to the UK, as we believe they are more than welcome.
Thankyou for reading and I hope with all my heart you can make this happen, but if not, thanks anyway.
Yours hopefully,
Jess.
So maybe if more people emailed them, they would see the demand TH are getting and feauture them in thier mag. just an idea.
Also, sorry this post is sooooooo long.
