TOKIO HOTEL IN SAN FRANCISCO
Scream! Scream! Scream! The teen-band Tokio Hotel urges the U.S. market, touring the country - and demonstrates a legendary club in San Francisco primarily one thing: that pubertäres circle of the only true global language these days.
The flair has kept, despite all the changes. The area around the corner of Fillmore Street Geary is still a little shabby. Dark House inputs alternate with small dilapidated shops, Neonreklamen advertise fast food restaurants, those homeless for a few cents for a beer beg. Above all lit a lone, yellow lettering of the building with the number 1805 - "Fillmore".
Here, in the legendary Fillmore Auditorium in San Francisco, has been rediscovered the blues. Here, the adults played: B.B. King, The Who, Santana, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Aretha Franklin and many more. That is long gone, and now here are those that want to be big.
Or even greater.
Just as Tokio Hotel, the German teen band from the vicinity of Magdeburg that are currently preparing, with their success translated into English melodies the hearts of U.S. teenagers to conquer. With more simple song lines like "Turn around, I am here" or "We are here tonight, leave aside the world" they want girls here just to the circle of how to bring home.
In May reached the first English-language album "Scream" place five of the U.S. rock charts and was even the tasteful music magazine "Rolling Stones" into schools: "These types are the largest German-Bubblegum neo-glam-Goth-Emo-Boyband. All times . "
That was not even meant ironically. But real help came from the music channel MTV, which is not only a Fanwoche einlegte, but the hit single "Ready, set, go" also in two categories for the MTV Video Music Awards nominated. Do we need more to teenagers heart to beat faster?
And so are the fans on this Tuesday evening far beyond the next block into the snake until it in small Grüppchen the "Fillmore" left, to the concert in Tokyo hotel.
Quite earlier in the series is Cathleen, for a week in a hostel around the corner ausgeharrt, one of the best places wet. "I have the band on the Internet for the first time, because I do not know that it comes from Germany," says the 15-year-old. After she read it in the Wikipedia - and the guys all the more into the heart closed: "The fact that the singing in two languages, impressed me. They lead the world so that together, and that's good," she says with a pathetic seriousness, the so - not to match their commitment, "in Bill immortal love."
"San Francisco is beautiful"
Singer Bill Kaulitz, 18, look like a Japanese cartoon version of Christian Siriano - the youngest winner of the talent show "Project Runaway," wrote the New York Times in February. And added, the U.S. fans should not ask for a "Goth-punk-Boy-band" durchdrehen, "led by sexy Androgynen frisiertem with spectacular hair."
Why not? However, it would then no longer in Rammstein, the German picture in the United States to dominate.
By turning in the U.S. are the German fans certainly in nothing. As a Tokyo hotel at just after nine on stage, breaking a los ohrenbetäubendes Kreischkonzert - as deprive the fans the album entitled "Scream" literally. The parents, in the not insignificant number present, are tortured and seem only relieved when their children tend to every song mitzusingen line.
Object of hysteria - as in Germany - singer Bill Kaulitz, the first three songs as routinely as little exciting. Only after the third song, it welcomes the audience with the lack of imaginative sets "Hi everybody, how are you tonight?" and "San Francisco is beautiful!"
This brings the fans again to circle Chen, also shows how the ambitious project of the four boys, in a language to sing, not their native language.
Music by children for children
Allegedly they were a year ago not even particularly good English. Their debate is quite hard, "eyes", "ice" - but the fans seem to be rather sweet. And that's just it is. To wild enthusiasm trigger, you just have to anyway, that Kaulitz off and bends down and hands are affected. Sometimes he even stretched the microphone into the audience, but such halls for larger-scale gestures work in the "Fillmore" is not, this is the old jazz club intimate.
Here in this evening just children's music for other children - was not necessarily bad, if band and fans so happy. Pity that neither the one nor the other seem to know where they are located.
The boys had only the gezuckt shoulders, as he pointed out, where they occur, says a member of the crew. Most fans say the hundreds of concert posters in the vestibules of the "Fillmore" not even the four decades of music history represent.
Somewhere there will soon be one of Tokio Hotel are, so will the tradition.
After about an hour and a half is the concert to an end. Elder, still other times knew, surprised. "This is surely not an early concert to an end," snarls the taxi driver. "It was formerly different."
Presumably he did not know that the overall work of Tokio Hotel is not really for a longer appearance last.
