We know that the band has moved to bigger pastures…seems fitting as our Roxy show sold out in record speed! But we are happy to be involved with their upcoming show at AVALON in Hollywood - and even happier to offer a contest for you to WIN tickets! We know their are some serious die hards - and we love you for it! SO to celebrate the release of the new album (out today) we want you to pick your favorite track off the new album and make a little video! Funny, serious, crazy - whatever your little heart desires. Load it on youtube…send us the link and we’ll pick our 5 favorites, post them, and give you a pair of tickets. Send all the entries to boxrox@mac.com along with you name. Winners will be notified and announced on Monday May 11, 2008.
Here at The Roxy we like to think we have an ear for what’s hot…what we love…and what bands we know will hit it big. But TOKIO HOTEL fooled us all!! We knew they were huge overseas - but with no album out in the US, we were a little hesitant. But something told us to take the chance - and we did! The rest…lives in Roxy history. A sold out show…a line down the block…fanatic fans from all over the world…and a few new fans too To this day, we still remember the Tokio Hotel madness with nothing but good thoughts. We know we hold a special spot in their hearts too! As the Roxy crew gathered around to check out the final version of the album, we were floored when we opened the album to see pictures taken in our very own backstage - and even more exciting was when we took the CD out of the case only to see our very own Roxy artwork. The new album hits stores today - and as the site of their first US show, we hope their 1st US release breaks records!
It hasn’t been long since the boys of Tokio Hotel came to visit…but we miss them! Lucky for us, their first ever US performance (at the Roxy of course) is well documented in their new youtube videos! It’s fun to relive the excitement - we cannot wait to have them back!
How much fun did we have on Friday!?!?
It was so great meeting all you amazing international and local fans - we had a blast!
The whole Tokio Hotel process was amazing…and with the end result being an amazing, sold out, loud, fanatic show- who can ask for anything more?? We were honored to host the FIRST show ever, in the US for Tokio Hotel - and we hope they will visit us again soon. Since we’ve had such fun interacting with all of you - if you were lucky enough to attend the show- tell us what your favorite song was! What was your favorite moment?
Today has been a really really great day! And as the girls and I start wrapping up our work, and get into party mode - we are a little sad! We don’t want this day to end. The energy in the office today was a little like summer vacation…we were a little giddy - everything about our day, and the band, and the crew has been the best EVER. We didn’t quite know what to expect - as we have a little language barrier going on - and we have been pleasantly surprised! The band is adorable - and from what they told us, the have loved being in sunny CA - even if just for a day or two. Now, we are sitting here listening to them sound check and they sound GREAT. Thanks to our neighbors who have been so patient with all the fans today - and our security who came out before the sun sets to make sure everyone was safe. We hope the international fans are having a legendary Roxy experience and they find us again one day on their travels back to the states! Continue reading ‘Roxy Says Sayonara To Tokio Hotel’
This has been quite the day! As show time is rapidly approaching - the line keeps growing! Everyone is so into this show - even our big guys! (who are actually teddy bears…shhhh don’t tell!) Thanks again to all the fans for being so great, and polite, and respectful to our home!
So having been a fanatic fan at one point in my life as well, i FULLY appreciate the intensity that is currently camped out outside the office window. Perhaps my favorite part…THE POSTERS!! Take a look at the beautiful art currently making the Sunset Strip home.
And it continues!! Here’s the latest update on the line…and some new fans that have come along to join the fun! We love hearing all your stories - how far did you travel?
So friends, the time is here!! We never thought this day would come…and now here we are! It’s been non stop Tokio for a few weeks now - and we’d like to thank all the dedicated fans who have flown in from all over the world - to see the band in their FIRST US appearance! You’ve made this, what is sure to be, an amazing SOLD OUT show! We knew today would be a great day, because as we left the Roxy yesterday evening - after a hard days work - we ran into the band on the corner! They seemed to be loving the Sunset strip already…and seemed very excited for the show! Just to give you an idea of what what’s going on here at the club, at 9:30 am…here’s a few pics of some of our favorite fans in line so far.
