    I read 3 weeks ago in a newspaper that the have already sold 2000+ tickets, which in my opinion is fairly good considering the fact that we Greeks, usualy run for tix at the last minute... However, at the same day, Depeche Mode who are playing on Tuesday 1/8 the had sold 10000.

    wow. i hope pearl jam knows that you greeks are last minute buyers and don't cancel the show.

    The promoter still hasn't start promotion for the show. No radio spots, no posters. August is a "dead' month in Athens since everyone hits for the islands (including me who leaves in few hours...). I think that in early September they will do a mass promotion for the gig so it is too early now to discuss about presale.

    I think it will be an unforgettable weekend in athens. PJ, late summer in athens (is beautiful), greek wine & food...
    Never been a concert to greece.

    I'm interested if the concert will be sold out. So far it's one of remaining gigs where tickets are available.

    You are Very Welcome, Final Bow ;)

    Hey desertman only 2 months to go!!! :D Any ideas for a meet up?

    My hubby and I will be in Athens @ Sept 3rd. - will stay a couple of days before heading to the islands then be back before the concert. If you set something up, please let me know before we leave Canada (Sept. 2) if you can because not sure how much internet I'll be accessing in Greece. If not, I guess I'll have to keep checking at internet cafes.

    Sorry we seem to all be relying on you, but you are THE DESERTMAN :cool: after all

    Peace

    I will let you know man...
    don't worry...

    i think we are going to have a "small" party at Sept 5th or 6th...just before some of us leave for France...we will be so glad if you come...
    it will be fun... :)

    That's sweet of you to invite us. We'll definitely still be an Athens then and would be delighted to be included in your night out.
    P.S. :confused: by "small" do you mean it's actually going to be a bash?

    Sidetracked,
    Thanks for the welcome. My lovely wife gets to do all the research for the islands & hotels(flight attn.) she's very good at it. Looks like all I have to do is get tickets for the show. Being helped by RELEASE ME, working it out. Hope we can meet up at some point before the show.

    hey Sidetracked! Glad to see you are trying to get everyone to meet up. That was quite "fun" trying to get the Athens tix - many hours after they were scheduled to go on sale....haha.
