Translation:

For a while now the Tokio Hotel fans have been confused: Does drummer Gustav have a tattoo or not?

Now it is out: He has one! And two right away! Exclusive in the Bravo, Gustav shows his huge back tattoo and a small one on the arm. And now? The one that always claimed in interviews that he would never get a tattoo?!

�Secretly I always have thought about it,� he admits, �but I was waiting for the perfect image. First I wanted two birds on my shoulder, with a wreath and a sword in their beak. But what kind of mini sword would that be?� the drummer laughs. Then finally my saving came: �I met this really good tattoo guy and told him about my birds-with-sword problem. After that he sent me some sketches.� The 19 year old liked them so much, that even before the rehearsals of the 1000 Hotels European tour had finished in February, he�d run into the tattoo studio to have them done!

�It was really spontaneous, two people from our team went along with me. I didn�t tell the others at first,� he smiles. Seven hours is how long his first tattoo took: four hours for the lines, three hours for the shades and even after that: �It still isn�t totally ready.� The star tattoo on his arm went quicker. �That only took two and a half hours, Gustav tells.

Did it hurt? �Oh yes, it was really painful! The one on his back was especially painful�; according to Gustav. �We had to pause constantly. To stand all the pain I was most of the time biting on my own shirt.� But the suffering paid off. On Gustav�s back you can now see two wings, a sword and a wreath.

And what does the artist want to say with that?

�The wings stand for freedom. The sword is for all the bad things that have happened to me � or maybe will even happen in the future. The wreath stands for all the good things and positive achievements: the happiness with the band and my family for example� Gustav explains. Of all people his family was the one that had to get used to the piece of �body jewellery�: �My parents were always against tattoo�s. That�s why I didn�t tell them anything, when I was getting my star on my arm done. But now they like it.�

And what do the other Tokio Hotel rockers say?

�They really like it: Bill has gone through the pain himself. He immediately has taken a good look at it. Only Tom warned me: �Man, you know that will never come off?!� Though, that won�t shock the drummer � contrary: he just got a taste for it and wants more tattoo�s: �I will definitely take one more, but what, I won�t tell yet,� Now Gustav is preparing for the trip to the USA. Bill has recovered well from his vocal cord surgery: �during his vocal rehabilitation he is singing his own songs again � and is accompanied on the guitar by Tom,� band manager David Jost tells. How it looks now the band will be on a plane to the USA on 1 May.

Bll: I�m fine. I feel just a little bit bored right now. I miss the stage.

RTL: Real TH fans will notice that his voice hasn�t changed. Bill is back

Bill: I felt so terrible that I couldn't continue our tour.I was thinking: Why me? Why not another person? What went wrong?

RTL: The tour was canceled and Bill underwent surgery 4 weeks ago. He was scared to loose his voice

Bill: You must imagine there�s a doctor in front of you and he�s telling you he want to cut this zyst on your vocal chords. My vocal chords are my biggest capital. And I am very prissy aswell and so I was really scared.

RTL: He was forced to be silent for about 10 days and he could only interact using his hands and feet.

Bill: When I was going to any gas station in the evening they were just like: �Hello, can I help you?� And all iI could do was to nod my head and give signs. They all thought I don�t want to talk to them �cause I was in bad mood.

RTL: Tomorrow he will perform his first show in NY. He�s very nervous but practised a lot with his doc.

Bill: I felt so silly! We started right away saying: �A, B, Monday, Tuesday etc.�

Bill wants to perform a whole concert in the next days but even if it would only be a, b, c, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday - his fans would love it.

First concert after the surgery

They are on stage again! And right away in new York too!

Today Bill (18), Tom (18), Gustav (19) and Georg (21) from Tokio hotel will play 3 songs in the US metropol on a festival - and all their fans are incredibly relieved.

Because it is the first concert of the band since the vocal cord operation of the singer Bill about a month ago.

In a interview, that can exclusivly be seen at BILD.de, Bill talks about his fears from before and after the surgery.

�The diagnosis was a real shock,� the singer tells. �I was afraid that I could never talk again.�

�After the surgery I wasn�t allowed to talk for ten days, or laugh or whisper: I didn�t think I would make it, but the fear for my voice was too great.�

When Bill was allowed to speak again his voice sounded unfamiliar.

�It sounded strange, somehow unknown. After a few days that was over.�

Can he ever sing again without fear?

Bill: �I won�t ever forget this experience and will never be totally without worry. But I survived and hope that it will never happen again.�

Bus Stop has been destroyed

"A group of 30 unknown teenagers destroyed the famous bus stop in front of the Kaulitz house in Loitsche yesterday.

That was the place the twins used to wait for their bus to school every day, and of course it became some sort of pilgrimage place for fans.

Police is currently trying to find out who those kids were."
