Interview with Romeo from "All Stars" Russian Magazine
Interview Romeo for “All Stars” Russian magazine !
ROMEO:
“I WONDER, WHAT IS IN PEOPLE’ HEARTS?”
The keyboarder of Cinema Bizarre Rom3o was born in German town Hahenburg on the 4th of August in 1988. He was fond of music since his childhood. Played in different groups. In autumn last year, after Luminor’s leaving, he began to play in Cinema Bizarre and gave a concert in Russia. And then he became the constant member of the group.
What do you remember most of all from the tour in Russia, except the transit from Krasnodar to Moscow?
- (Laughing). Yeah, the trip was great: 25 hours in the train. But if seriously, I remember a very good food.
What was your first reaction, when you learnt about the tour with Lady GaGa in America?
- I didn’t believe in it. Sometimes now it seems to me that all this was just a dream.
What was your brightest impression from America?
- I won’t answer this question, because it’s very private…
You are not a newcomer in music. Where did you happen to play before Cinema Bizarre?
- I sang and played in groups, which worked in different music styles, such as: Ska- Punk, Cover-Rock, Tyrone Jackson in the Musical Fame (played in Germany, Ireland, France), Emo-Progressive, Emocore, Screamo, Progressive. Then there was another project, which I left for Cinema Bizarre. Now I am the happy rocker with the keyboard in this awesome band.
Did the work with Cinema Bizarre change something in your life or may be in you yourself?
- Too many. I can’t describe it in several words, but I am happy to be in this group.
What does it mean to you to be a part of Cinema Bizarre?
- Spend 24 hours a day with the best friends!
You and Yu are old friends…
-Yes, and we always have something to remember.
The friends for you is….?
- Without friends I am nothing, they are always in my heart. There is a very good expression: true friends are more valuable than diamond.
What are your most favorite songs from another groups?
- “Wait For Tomorrow” by Blessthefall and “The Crimson” by another American group Atreyu
What is your favorite music direction ?
- Screamo.
What do you think about fans, who come from different countries only to see your concerts?
- It’s amazing! I love such people for that what they do.
What kind of people you don’t like at all?
- Assholes!
Without what can’t you imagine your life?
- Without music, of course!
Would you like for one day to get an opportunity to read thoughts of other people?
- It’s not so interesting what they have in their heads, much more interesting that, what they have in their hearts!
Can you describe yourself in several words?
- I’m great organizer, open, true friend. I think, I am not silly and very creative. Also, I can’t bear injustice at all.
The last question: can you say something or wish to your Russian fans and readers of “All Stars” magazine?
- You showed me that you love me and still keep on doing it. I am happy and want to say: thank you very much! See you soon and I hope, that you will show me some other sights of Russia, about which I don’t know yet!

New blog from Strify!
TOYZ 2009.04 - Music remains.
„Willkomen, Bienvenue, Welcome –
Cinema, Cinema, Cinema!“
It’s bloogin’ time again and so much stuff is goin on.
We are workin’ on the idea for our new music video „I CAME 2 PARTY“, it’ll be shot in June. It’ll be some kind of video remake based on an idea of a music video that’s a classic. I’m not going to tell you too much. What do you think should a Cinema Bizarre party look like?
A week ago we’ve been in Italy and had a wonderful performance of „DEEPER & DEEPER“ at the Italian MTV TRL Awards. Because the album release was postponed again, we wanted to make you a little present and this track is downloadable for free at cinemabizarre.com!
And the journey continues: On the weekend we’ll have the „TOYZ“ pre-release-party in Hamburg where we will appear as DJs and even play a few new tracks from the album for you. Hope I’ll see you there!
Next week we’ll be in Paris and have a little special event for you - an intimate accoustic evening – and the we’ll head to Moscow and Kiev for some concerts.
But a few things happened these days that weren’t so nice.
There was some buzz about stuff that leaked on the internet that upset some of you.
Also I read some reviews about the album that were kind of... I don’t know how I should say it... they were kind of funny. They were writing about all our make up, about how much hairspray we use, about the „wrong“ way of writing „TOYZ“ with a Z and so on.
That’s fine for me, but I really don’t understand the point of writing a review about an album without writing about the music.
Yes, Cinema Bizarre is not only meant to be heard but also to be seen.
We are making video, photos, are creating images... but all this comes along with the music.
There has always been a lot of controversy in my life. I guess it’s the same with the band.
But I just don’t want you to lose focus on the most important thing.
You can have as much posters as you want in your room, you can have zero posters.
You can dress the way you want, you can write whatever you want about us.
As long as you care about one thing: the music.
I don’t want you to forget that, it seems that happened to the person who has written that review (or copied it from another writer).
So many things come and go. Music remains, Art remains.
Stay Bizarre.
