Hey
Don’t know if you still want this but anyway, I translated this so…
Sorry I’m French so…

I think the first question was about the US but we don’t have the question in French and I don’t speak German so…
Any way, that’s what they answered :

Bill : Actually, normally it’s a good thing to arrive in a new country where there are not so much people who know us, we can go in the streets without being recognized, what we’ve done of course, but we also arrive in this country to change it. We want people to know us afterwards, and it was really a success, it worked really well. The concerts were really great so we are really happy !


Interviewer : Well, in France, your are performing the concerts only in German, contrary to the other European countries. Why is the French audience different from the other countries ?
Bill : Euuuuuuuuh (-_-’)
Tom : Actually, in France the difference is that we sing only in German because we feel that the audience likes these songs so we adapt ourselves to that. But we have to say that there is always the same energy which defines the fans in every country so there is really an equality everywhere. We began our tour in Brussels and now we are in Paris, it’s the… 5th concert today
Bill : Yeah
Tom : So it’s really going well and we can’t say that there is one characteristic in particular for each country. It’s really each fan who is individual according to his personality.

Interviewer : Bill and Tom ended school. How do they feel about this ? What is the first thing they did ? And what does it change for them ?
Bill&Tom at the same time : Burn everything !
Bill : Yeah, the first thing we did was to burn and throw all our stuff you know, it’s a thing we’ve always wanted to do, we said to ourselves, the day it’s over, we burn everything.
Tom : If we had to do it again and take again the school ending test we would need everything again.
Bill : But of course, it’s easier now, cause we can concentrate on the band, we are really happy that all this shit is at least over. It was really a horrible nightmare so now it’s really only the band.

Interviewer : You will release a new single that you will test during your concerts. Can you give us the preview of the title you’ve chosen.
Tom : What ??
Bill : What ??? Actually, there is absolutely no new single or new song preparing.
Tom : It may be a rumor.
Bill : We haven’t benn to the studio for the moment. The 3rd album isn’t begun. But of course, there will be new songs, we will go back to the studio this year, we’ll do a 3rd album. There’s a lot of material already, lots of new ideas of text and songs, so it will be done but now it’s not planned.

Interviewer :The fans are really concerned by Bill’s hair so I’d like to know what are the secrets of his cutting, how much time it needs, and does he consider cutting it ?
TH Staff : You can take another question, he will not answer. He doesn’t answer the question about his hair

Interviewer : Do you think it’s possible to have a normal relationship with a girl ?
Tom : It depends on what you mean by normal ! But yeah, why not ? Except that there is of course a problem of time. If we had a relationship with a girl now, everything will happen over the phone but if we’re really in love, it’s really possible, and we could travel with this girl so yeah of course.

Interviewer : Your fans are often hysterical. Do you have an example of a fan who has been too forward ?
Bill : Euuuuhhh (again lol !)…
Tom : Pfff..
Bill :We can’t make a choice, we can’t say this fan or that fan is more hysterical than the other. Our fans are always very crazy, they are always hysterical when we arrive but we like it.
Tom : The worst for us would be an audience clapping.
Bill : Yeah that would be the worst, an audience clapping like we use to see for other artist.
Bill : It would more kind of afraid us an audience clapping. We find it great these screaming, and noise, it gives us energy.
Tom : What we want on stage is to free this energy, to scream. We’re not there to relax, we can do it at home.
Interviewer : Are you stressed before going on stage ? And do you have some rituals before the concerts ?
Tom : The only ritual I’d say is that Georg goes to the toilet to do number two, but otherwise don’t have any particular ritual. 30 minutes before the show, we meet in a room and we say : okay we’re gonna make the stress grow up all together but that’s all.

interviewer : You may certainly know some reality shows such as in France Star Academy or La Nouvelle Star (American Idol equivalent). If you weren’t famous, would you like to participate to that kind of shows ?
Tom : I think we can’t do it as a band so that would clearly be no. But if there would be something like that for the dancers, for Georg, it would be great. Have some dancing movements, for him it would be perfect.
Bill : Each one has to decide if it goes with his own style and if it corresponds with his personality but for us, for what we do and our music style, it’s not the good thing.

Interviewer : Bill was elected as the world’s sexiest man by a Spanish magazine last year. What does he think about it ? And who is for them the sexiest celebrity ?
Tom & Georg : What ?
Georg : Jessica Alba !
Tom : Jessica Alba !
Georg : No !! I said this the first !
Tom : Yeah, even if I don’t need to sleep with her. But for Bill, it was of course the wrong choice. We have to ask ourselves who can have voted that, who can have chosen that ???
Bill : Of course, it’s a great honor for me.
Tom: For me of course, it’s Jessica Alba, I think it’s a little stupid to do this for men, it’s really strange, above all when it’s Bill who wins.

Interviewer : The other two didn’t answer…
Bill : I don’t know, I don’t have any preference…
Gustav : For me it’s Scarlett Johanson.
Tom : Who ??
Gustav : Scarlett Johanson from The Island.
Bill : May be I would have some actress I find good
Tom : Yeah me too.
Bill : But I don’t specially have an idol or a star I find super-sexy.

Interviewer : Which TV series are they watching ? And which TV series they would choose if they could appear in as guest-star ?
Tom : I really like 24, it’s a series I have discovered for myself
Bill : I really love King of Queens and if in real life, they were as funny I would love to play in it.
Tom : Or also Girls Next Door, or Playboy Mansion

Interviewer : What are you listening to at the moment ?
Bill : It doesn’t change, it’s still the same as two years and a half ago, it’s still the same mix : Coldplay, Keane…
Tom : For Georg, it hasn’t change either, it’s still Janet Biderman [The translator says it's a German strange thing and they laugh because she said it's bizarre].
Georg : I listen to Jimmy Edwards.
Tom : I can’t understand because the translator only says you’ve heard it’s… and as she’s laughing at the same time…
Gustav : Moi c’est Live Antagony, l’album Ugly.
