maybe the greek language does not translate well in2 english...the fact is that everything a greek person says in english sounds like a command... instead of 'would u please sit down' it's 'u sit down now'...+ the women sound harsher than the men...very strange... @ 4:30pm the promoter stuffed 4 of us in2 a little taxi + we drove 2 the venue, a modern amphitheater near the acropolis, surrounded by hills that looked like a movie set...the promoter's sound company had problems w their gear + soundcheck was @ 8pm instead of 6pm...i was assured that the horrible hum from the p.a. speakers would stop as soon as the generator was started + the lights had their seperate power source... hm, but when that FULL MOON appeared over the hill + we started the show @ 9:30pm everything was fine @ last...the audience was gr8 + dug the music, the younger members standing around the stage + noding their heads as if @ a rock concert...everybody played well + we got in2 some new music, playing w the songs, improvising 2gether... afterwards we went 2 a restaurant w the promoter + a man from sony + drank uzo, a traditional greek liquor...1 person claimed it had opiates in it, another said it was like the french absinth, but it seemed like a regular alcoholic drink 2 me...i guess i should ask gary...he had 3 glasses of uzo...
