Bill speaks out
Here is the answer to the worlds emo-fans.
Tokio Hotels singer Bill Kaulitz, 18, talks
out about his operation.
- I want to thank everyone for their support, says
Kaulitz.
Tokio Hotel canceled their concert cause of a
Bill's vocal cords problem and operation. But
overall everything seems to have gone as planned.
Kaulitz talks with his clear throat and says to their
fans that he is really looking forward to the next gigs
coming up now. For us Swedes their won't be any
concert this summer.
- But their is hope of being one
in the fall. As soon as anything is decided we'll
inform you, says Anna Sjölund from Live Nation.
ZDF Leute heute 29.04.2008:
Translated by Narin @ tokiohotel.org.uk
Tokio Hotel has its voice back. Four weeks after his larynx operation, the 18-year-old has now spoken his first word in public. And of course, he directed it to his fans. Das Bild listened to what he had to say and we see the fans delighted that Bill is back. Juliana Helm and Anna Hacke (?) report.
For four weeks had the fans heard not a syllable, not a sound from their Bill. But while his voice was being treated, the teen-star understood exactly how touchingly his fans cared about him. So, firstly a thank-you:
“Hey people, I’m Bill. I want to thank you once again for... for all the support you showed me in the time I didn’t have my voice. It truly wasn’t easy and I’m sorry. It was really great to see that you all stayed with me and how you sent me so much. Many, many thanks, it truly made me happy. It’s a really good feeling to see how everyone is always there every time.”
He sounds quite as fit again he was before the operation and the 18-year-old sill had more good news for everyone who was so bitterly disappointed about the concert in Dortmund:
“I’m looking forward to the concert and I’m pleased that we can do the Dortmund concert here in Germany after all, it was very very important to me that I could play this concert. I’ve already seen that you’ve waited and I’m looking forward to finally seeing you and then to give the concert. Many, many thanks.”
But the most important thing for the fans is that Bill finally has his voice again. The news has spread like fire amongst the teenagers today:
[Girl] “I’m just so happy that the concerts can take place again.”
Tomorrow, Tokio Hotel breaks America for the first time. They had to cancel eleven concerts there too because of Bill’s vocal rehab. The German fans at least remain Bill’s communication.
With that, the waiting time until their return is perhaps a bit easier to bear.
Canadian newspapers such as The Gazette and The Toronto Sun have picked up on the Canadian Tokio Hotel concerts - great promotion. It looks like they're going to be really popular over there!
