    Anyone out there in the same boat or a group that dont mind taking on a straggler?
    Are you just coming for the concert or having a vacation while you're there? I'm pretty sure as the date gets closer, a pre-show meeting will be set up for the night before, then we can all meet and hang out.

    I'm not sure yet, it depends on the prices, but I'm planning to stay somewhere in the center of Athens, close to the metro..like most of the people I know.
    I'm coming with a group of friends, so It'll be great if we'll get to stay at the same place or tour the city together.

    sadly... 15 minutes makes all the differense in the world to me! :(
    I can't imagine fighting my way through thousands of Greeks to the stage... unless some nice gentelman is willing to save a spot for a nice girl who really wants to actually see the show?
    I'll be forever thankful...
  • I'm thinking of staying in Greece a week after the show but DO NOT want to stay at a typical tourist spot. What I'm looking for is a quiet little town with a few good resturants, a nice beach and as few as POSSIBLE tourists. Anyone know such a place in Greece? Please let me know :)

    By the beginning of October tourism goes down in Greece. Especially in the Cyclades (places even close up for the season on some) so maybe you should try an island if you really want to get away from tourists. I'm obviously a fan of the cycladic islands, haven't been to Crete yet, but heard they get tourists much later into October cause its still very warm. I like Milos alot and Serifos was nice(but windy in June), lots fewer tourists, more Greeks on vacation. As for a place on the mainland, haven't got a clue. Hope that helps. I can think of some other islands, depends on how far away from Athens (Amorgos- beautiful but hard to get to) you want to get. Cheers.

    i prefer the Cyclades too... :)
    but i suggested Poros because is 1 or 2 hours from Athens...
    and it's beautiful and peaceful..

    btw..Amorgos is one of my favorites... :D

    It will make a massive difference i think... it pretty much guarantees ten club members will be right down the front... on that thought... do you think it will still be important to get there and line up early... even if you DO have a ten club wrist band??
