Should this topic be in "discussions in other languages"?

In fact Hymn to Life was named as tolkki before, but he had to change his name.

Get on the Metro and go to Monastiraki. Plenty of cheap underground cd shops there, dunno about pubs or anything though.

As far as I know most rock-metal clubs are in the northern parts of Athens. Marousi or Kifisia I guess.

I think you are wrong...The most rock-metal bars in Athens are in Exarcheia and in the Center of Athens

I'm sure you've seen it already, but just in case...

It was quite a big and long lasting quake, more than 20 secs I believe. Everyone was pretty shocked, since memories from the 1999 quake are fresh. I read that it was 6,9 R. The strange thingis that it was felt almost everywhere on Greece, South Italy, and Egypt! I mean, how bad could it be where it happened? The centre was somewhere between Kithira and Crete.And here in Athens(somewhere 200km away from that) it was pretty strong... No reports of anyone dying though. That's good. :)
I think that's all. More info on news pages, I'm afraid I'm not a journalist...

I can tell about the show in Athens, is that ok?
Setlist in order I hope

Hunting High And Low
Speed of Light
S.O.S
Kiss of judas
Maniac Dance
Destiny
Bass Solo
Against The Wind
Coming Home
Twilight Symphony
United
Father Time

Encore
Ode to joy,Zorbas(well,10 seconds of it) Paradise Acoustic, Forever
Eagleheart
Black Diamond

That reminds me... the show in Budapest had the same setlist... Unless I am forgeting something.
It was perfect, what can I say? I've never seen TK singing that high,although he said he had a flu, for over a month now. They did something funny in my opinion. While they were playing Speed of Light they just stopped... to say Hello, Kalispera Athina, pos iste and something else and they continued playing where they stopped! The crowd were really loud, I can't hear much because of that I suppose and not because of the music :lol: . My camera was confiscated so no Hi-res videos or pictures... But I still had my mobile so thank God for that. Well, I don't know what else to say, just ask me! :wink:

It's time to change my avatar, so, I'll try to find a suitable one...

The setlist is nearly the same, the only difference, we didn't have Torba in Budapest. :D I'm glad to hear, you had a good time over there.

I suppose they could play Hungarian Dance No.5 in Budapest,no? That would be nice. It would be nicer if I was there too, though!
