THE FUZZTONES Live in Athens! Support Act: The Snails KYTTARO Live Club / ΚΥΤΤΑΡΟ and RUF CODE ART 24-11-2023

On Saturday 24-11-2023 The Fuzztones played at Athens Greece at KYTTARO Live Club / ΚΥΤΤΑΡΟ with support the local band The Snails

The Snails is a well known garage rock band with many years of experience and very good sound They opened the night around 21.30 and soon made all the fans in the club dancing with their fast and wild rhythm.They had a very well worked set of songs and a surprise before the end playing the song "I'm five years ahead of my time" with the bass player of The Fuzztones Eric Geevers on the vocals

Around 22.30 The Fuzztones came on the stage loud and hard with their opening theme and all the club was shaking from the noise of the fans.They played over an hour and a half a fantastic medley of their best songs with a surprise of a Cramps tribute and many of their best songs.Of course Rudi hasn't forgotten to mention his old friend Nikos Triantafilides (The famous director producer and music promoter who died so soon at his 50s) and play the song ''barking up the wrong tree" that wrote for him."The new addition on the band Marcello Salis (guitarist of The Morlocks and The Hangees) fit in perfectly with the band and had a fantastic performance along side with Eric Geevers on the blasting bass guitar Nico Secondini on the frenzic keybords and Marco Rivagli the drum master.

This time Rudi Protrudi the man behind the history of the band and also its founder had a super mood and he never stopped talking to the people making jokes and having the whole of the band in a show more like a rehearsal with good friends than a strictly "came to play a great gig and good night" performance.

''This band was never a mainstream band and never had the publicity like others bands in music industry but its still here after over 43 years with the support of the fans filling the clubs with people"

"And i am happy to see not only the good old fans and friends tonight but many young people who were born long time after the founding of the band and this give us hope , joy and strength to continue doing what we do"

Those were Rudi's words and he also added that they love Greece and the Greeks and they always feel great whenever their visit our country.Of course we love them also and want them to come here every year.All the members of the band are great simple people who are close to their fans.

I thank them a lot for the friendship that we share many years now and for the long talks we have about music and life

I want to add in the end that the sound engineer of the club Yiorgos did a great job that night and made a fantastic sound

I want to thank all the stuff of the KYTTARO Live Club for their help and support

Agnostic Front xResistenciAx Against All Odds Live @AN club 'official' 13-6-2023

Last Tuesday 13 of June 2023 the pioneers and godfathers of Hardcore music Agnostic Front gave a smashing sold out gig at An Club in Athens Greece together with xResistenciAx from Georgia and Against All Odds from Greece.

xResistenciAx opened the night with their hard music and got the crowd warmed up.Strong rhythm heavy bass and powerful drums with lyrics against the system and supporting the friendship and unity of people.Very good band and fantastic persons.We talked a lot and i saw many people from the bands and the crowd that they were there, saying the best words about them.For sure we want them to come back soon.

Against All Odds the Greek band that followed on the stage gave us another heat on the chest with their hard and strong music.Fast and slower riffs were changing rapidly and made everyone jump.Very powerful band playing since 2009 and know how to get the crowd jump and dance madly.

Around 22.50 Agnostic Front got up the stage and set the packed club on fire.Vinnie Stigma started jump on the stage supported by the heavy sounds of Craig Silverman guitar the calm force of the band, Mike Gallo strong bass and Danny Lamagna busting drums.Roger Miret took the microphone and gave the beginning of a non stop sing along and dancing fantastic show.They played songs from all their 40+ carrier and we didn't want them to stop.Stigma with a jolly mood never stopped teasing the fans and his band-mates and Mike from the other end of the stage was provoking him to music instruments battle.The band was moving across the stage the whole time and that gave the fans the push to jump among them and stage diving.It was a night to remember for all of us.

Great atmosphere from everyone in the club. The members of the bands were hanging around with the fans taking thousands of fotos,the staff of the club talking with all and having fun with everyone.The promoters HARDTIMES ATHENS and everyone who worked there that night.Many thanks to all of them for their support and help to me.BOTTOM LINE WE WERE A BIG COMPANY ALL OF US AND HAD A FANTASTIC TIME

Special thanks to my brother Craig Silverman for the talks,the help and his nice words to me (Always enjoy his company when we meet) and the merch man of Agnostic Front George Pirounakis a good friend and a hard worker.
