Uk tour

[bittersweet paradox]

So is Tokio Hotel definately not coming back to the Uk for a tour then becaue of the bad press they got last time? Arghh.. I'm going to have to wait a couple of years till I'm eighteen and try and save up enough money to go watch a concert abroad somewhere. And does anyone know when they came to London when they got all the bad press?

I think that was in 2007 or 2006 or so? I don't know if they got bad press, just not much press at all.

I think the UK would be lucky to get just one gig, not even a full tour. >< They're so focused on the USA and Asia right now.

ah how annoying! Do you think they will do in the next couple of years or so? Cus there was a rumour that they were thinking about coming during the past year - which obviously didn't happen. And yeah, not many of my friends have really heard of them, and I guess they're not as popular here as other countries - but still damnd annoying

There have been rumours about every country, I think. All it takes is for one person to put something online and it spreads like crazy. So don't get your hopes up until it's actually been confirmed.

To be honest; I don't think they will come any time soon. They've had so many chances and right now they're really focusing on the USA and Asia.

... It would be good if they had the chance to play at festivals here. I'd die of excitement if they played at the Leeds and Reading festivals.

Marianne did post this:

From Billboard UK -

"Universal Music Germany's Ballin says South American markets are also a priority this time around, and an initial push in Asia is planned for next year. Even the United Kingdom, which now stands alone in declining to embrace the band, will receive the full Tokio Hotel treatment in 2010."

I've also heard that they've had trouble with record lables over here and that's why they've not come :/

Doesn't Universal have a UK depaertment? And they recorded most of Humanoid in the UK. So it's too bad they didn't come to the UK more.

I'm sure they'd have to have a UK department, heck even little tiny Ireland has one, it's right beside my college
