Morrissey is confirmed to play in Athens, Greece at the fairly new "Gagarin" club, on 5-6 October. Tickets will be on sale possibly tomorrow, priced at 35 Euros. It is expected to be an easy sell out, due to the fact that the venue doesn't hold more than 1000.

      Ughhh....This has nothing to do with Greece, but just FIY, Alain said that after all of the Europe dates, they may play some more US dates, IF they do not do the album in Dec. If they do do the album in Dec., as they are REALLY hoping to, then there will will be a full scale tour afterwards in 03'. So there you are....

  • Wow! That would be really cool if they were to play Greece again. I was so sad I could not go to Dublin to see the shows, but I would even more like to see them play Greece. Weren't the Greece shows in 99' really mad, wild affairs? I hear he has a really strong following there. That's great. It reminds me that LA is not the necessarily the center of the Moz universe.

  • Geez, honestly no offense , but why Athens?
    man ..
    I mean what about the rest of Europe , can't believe 2 dates in Greece , but one in Paris?

    what about Copenhagen? Berlin?

    I wish that for once we could have more dates in advance so we could plan our trips and stop this "guess where am I gonna play tour .."
    yeah yeah don't bash me .. I know somebody's gonna tell me ..hey dude Morrissey can play and do whatever he pleases..

  • I cant believe he is returning to Athens! i wish i was there again. and to think how extremely small the venue is..arh, it will be an incredible night.

    this time around, Moz fans will come out and gather, since i never saw anyone really with moz/Smiths affiliated logos of any kind.

  • I am extremely angry with all the people complaining about Morrissey playing two dates in Athens. I know I shouldn't bother, but why do people, especially the Americans, believe that they are the centre of the universe? Greece is a beautiful country, Moz has a strong following here and he obviously enjoyed the reception he had last time he visited. I am deliriously happy that Morrissey is coming here and I would feel very happy for all the Moz fans, if he could play to any country. Ignorance is the beggining of racism.

    According to Melvyn Hayes' cuddly, yet vicious red ant (Babylon 5 self-depreciation society) Wendy James is playing Scissors, paper, stone the Saudi bread thief in a small, gradually shrinking bureau de Jessica Lange on Oct 506. Tickets go stale once opened.

Tickets will be offered to any member of the Tremoloes that are on bail possibly tomorrow, priced at 35 Dime bars each. It is expected to be an easy smelling of Nicholas Witchell, due to the fact that the venue doesn't offering any other ginger-haired Royal correspondents to inhale.

  • I had to complain about people undermining the importance of a Moz gig in Athens, not only because of 2-3 postings in this place, but because I saw the same reactions (and even worse) back in 1999, when he first came to Athens and I saw again very racistic remarks (mainly by U.S. citizens) when he did the South America tour. Definitely the U.S. is a huge music market, Moz has found a warm and welcoming home there and the American fans deserve huge tours due to their devotion, but a small country, such as Greece, deserve a gig (or two) every now and then. I really hope he will play in every place that Moz fans exist. I just still get the feeling that fans that do not come from the U.S. or Britain are believed to be "second-rate" fans, which is my sad conclusion after visiting the site, or taking part to the Moz-solo chat. Some things really never change!

  • I was ecstatic when I found out Morrissey was coming to Japan this time around -- what a stroke of luck. So, I'm sure those of you in Greece (or nearby) are chuffed. You're getting Morrissey later in his tour, when the new songs have really been honed to perfection. Enjoy!
