  "account": "Toto, the American band that redefined AOR in the late 1970s and early 80s, is set to perform in Germany. Their debut album, released in 1978, was a masterpiece of clean, crisp sound and innovative arrangements. Hits like \"Hold the Line\" and \"You are the Flower\" showcased their unique style, while \"Takin' It Back\" demonstrated their bold musical experimentation. In 1982, Toto's fourth studio album \"IV\" catapulted them to global stardom with the chart-topping \"Africa\". Despite the tragic loss of drummer Jeff Porcaro in 1992, Toto's legacy and fan base remain strong. They are currently returning to Germany, performing in several cities including Bremen, Mainz, Balingen, Bonn, Regensburg, Konstanz, and Northeim, with a performance at Burg Clam in Austria on July 23rd, 2027.",
  "summary": "One of the greatest Pop and Rock bands on this planet, Toto, have survived many decades. They are still strong. And they will be performing all over Europe, including in Germany and Austria.",
