Exclusive Interview with Tokio Hotel

The German band will give their first concert in Perú Thursday the 25th at the Jockey Club. Bill and Tom Kaulitz promised a great show

Awards precede them. They are flaming winners of the MTV European Awards (category Best World Stage Performance), plus collectors of gold and platinum records; the German group Tokio Hotel is closer to giving their first concert in our country as part of their Welcome to Humanoid City tour.

"You will see more or less the same show that we have given in the European tour. The thing is we will not be able to offer exactly the same production. But there's no doubt that it will be spectacular. We are taking all our outfits; and, we will be playing songs from our new album", details Bill Kaulitz via telephone about their upcoming presentation.

The show they will give on the 25th of this month at the Jockey Club will present a futuristic style inspired by their last album: "Humanoid" (2009), that gathers diverse elements from science fiction. Of course, within the 'set list', they will perform songs from their whole career such as "Monsoon", "Ready Set Go", "Humanoid", and "Automatic".

Since they formed the group, a decade ago, the twins Bill (vocals) and Tom (guitar) Kaulitz together with Georg Listing (bass and keyboard) and Gustav Schäfer (drums) began playing in small clubs before making themselves known. That's why they learned to take the splendor that comes with fame patiently.

"We understand what it feels like when people don't know you, even though now we've also seen the other side of things. To remain focused, we remember what it felt like in the beginning when no one knew us", explains the singer.

If well they don't know much about our country, Bill and Tom demonstrated being excited to play in Lima for the first time and letting themselves be surprised by Perú. But not necessarily by the cuisine nor the scenery, but by something closer to them: the fans.

"I think the most wonderful thing one can see is when we meet for the first time with them. Those reactions, above all when one is so far away from home, they form a magical moment", shares Tom. His twin does not fall behind and completes the idea with a thank you to all their fans. "The energy they give off is incredible. That's why we love them so much. We love our fans. They don't live music, they live Tokio Hotel", he adds.

For the moment, the German band is focused on the Latin American tour that will take them thereafter to Chile and Mexico. If they confirmed that they have a project in mind, they don't want to say too much about it. What they did assure is that they will continue to record in English and their following destination is Tokio, the city with which they always dreamed of.
