"right now, Bill is driving back and fro between Hamburg and his new flat in Berlin", says producer and manager David Jost. and the fans can finally breathe again: the voice will be back!

Jost: "the voice reha is running according to plan. after Bill has been only doing speaking-training for the past couple of days, he's been humming his first tunes today."

when is Bill gonna be back on stage?

David Jost: "on may 3rd, Bill is going to sing his first concert after the operation at a festival in New York." a lot of big stuff is happening for Tokio Hotel in america right now.

the band's english version of ?Übers Ende der Welt" (?Ready set go") has been the most played video on the biggest music channel MTV and the album "Scream" just entered the canadian Top10 charts.

David Jost: "Bill cannot wait to finally go back on stage. he's never had such a long break from singing before- he's absolutely antsy because he's so impatient already."
