Plakias / Whiskey Business
« on: February 25, 2017, 05:24:08 PM »
Well it's all sorted. We are meeting up to play in Plakias between 31 May and 6 June. Gigs and venues to organised by the advanced retired party :) But we have one confirmed date on 31 May supporting a the Horny Boys rock band at On The Rocks. They are a great entertaining band. As for us we will be far more ropey as it's the first day together since last year. In our defence we do it for free though. However it will be a fabulous fun night.

More dates to follow. I'm also looking to do one or two more laid back solo gigs to let the old men rest. So if anyone knows anywhere?

Cheers

Where to go / Mountain Biking
« on: January 15, 2016, 12:49:40 PM »
Anyone done any serious mountain biking around Plakias before. Or some hard mountain walks near by I could try ride a bike down? If I get over this year I may bring the bike as well as the guitar. It might keep me away from the bar. There appears to be plenty I could try on google earth but just wondered if anyone had any route ideas. Don't mind the ups being on dirt roads but looking to come down narrow technical footpaths.

Been a few years since I brought the bike over but these are from last time to give you an idea of the type of routes I might be looking for.

We ride again at end of May. Probably one gig for fun at Costa Chrysoula. Maybe some others. Hoping to play at Mes Tin Ammo during the day on last weekend of a May. Think there's a motorbike rally on so could be lively. Same as last year. No practice and just for fun. Hopefully see you at one of the gigs

Two gigs next week. Just a bit of fun. Come along if you are around.

Costas Chrysoulas Saturday 20th 9:00pm

Joe's bar Sunday 21 9:30pm

We are two friends who met on holiday in Plakias and found out we both like playing and singing. We haven't rehearsed as we live in separate cities but we should manage to cobble a couple of sets together. Some songs we both know. Some we will have to wing it on. Be great to see you if you fancy coming along. Like I said it's just some fun for two old blokes who should know better :)

Anyone ever got a taxi from Plakias to Chora Sfakia? If so any idea on price and journey time?

Thanks

Last year I met Paul and Hans at KC. Angelos introduced me to Paul as we both do a bit in bands back home. Les organised an impromptu gig. Well we kept in touch and are back this year at the same time as each other so it looks like it may happen again. Still a bit impromptu but we have exchanged songs to sort out the keys for me and are bringing a little bit of gear. So keep an eye out as if it happens it will be during week starting 27 may as I am only there for the week. Be just old classics and may not go smoothly all night but was fun last year.
