They met at a battle of the bands. Bill and Tom are twins and had been preforming when Georg saw them. He pointed them out to Gustav and he recognized them from school. After sitting back and watching the twins, Georg realized Bill was playing the keyboard as the drums and bass, and they were both singing. He then asked Gustav if he wanted to lend them a hand. Gustav was okay with it so they approached the Kaulitz. Georg pointed out that the twins needed a bassist and drummer then that he and Gustav had been playing those instruments for some time. Bill and Tom talked it over then they tested the older boys. Once they passed the test they all decided the name Devilish sounded cool, since they were only 13,14, and 15. After they switched label companies, they changed their name to Tokio Hotel. Tokio because they like big cities and Tokyo is a big city that they wish to play at some day. And Hotel comes from the fact that they are constantly on the move and live in hotels more than their actual apartment homes in Magdenburg.
