While the fifth show of “Let's Dance” is already underway, Gustav Schäfer is on a completely different stage: On Friday evening he will be at the “Radio Regenbogen” awards in Rust with Tokio Hotel. But don't worry. Gustav has a plan. Immediately afterwards we continue towards Cologne at high speed – first by car, then by plane, then again by car. The distance? Almost 403 kilometers. That sounds like a lot of stress, but the musician takes the challenge sportily: “Together we can do it!”

He himself knows that it won't be a walk in the park: “It'll be a little hara-kiri action.” After all, the schedule is extremely tight – from the performance at 8:35 p.m. we go straight to the airport, then on to Cologne and from there to the studio. Despite everything, Gustav remains optimistic: “I'm trying as hard as I can. Everything is organized.” His goal: to arrive on time enough to be able to warm up. Because he definitely wants to dance. “If something goes wrong now, it's unfortunately out of my control. But I don't want to assume that, I'm thinking positively now.” He receives support from the entire team: “The entire production is behind me. (…) We try to do everything humanly possible to make it work somehow.”
