Had an awesome weekend! It was so good that I felt I had to post it. Saturday night was Machine Head Live. One of the top 3 concerts in my life (the other 2 are Pearl Jam and Meshuggah) and I've been to probably more than a 100 rock/metai/pop concerts, some bands more than once. Proper Metal mayhem at the pit, Mosh pits and wall of death, got punched, kicked and headbutted at the nose (this hurt but luckily didn't bleed). After the concert I was so puffed that I didn't want to go home so I went to Sudyaya and Cabeiri Live at the "IT place" in Athens. Some lovely chill and melodic prog while outside the rain was pouring tonnes of water. It was great relaxation after such a powerful concert. Stayed until about 8 in the morning and outside was a lovely cool yet sunny morning (gotta love Greek weather). The following night I was forced to go at the Athens beach area (Glyfada) by a friend of mine who wanted to talk about some marriage problems she has. Although I didn't want to go, it turned out to be one of the best decisions EVER: We were at this very posh bar with people with expensive branded clothes ( I was in my flip flops). Next door to the bar is a shop that sells 2nd hand designer handbags with price tags that start over 500 eur. So as we were talking I see 7 huge guys with black clothes coming in the bar..... IT WAS MACHINE HEAD with their crew... I spent the next hour talking to the group and rolling tobbaco cigarretes for them, since they like Greek tobacco (the legal kind) but can't roll, so for every cigarrete that I rolled they bought a round of drinks to the fans (just 5 of us really) that were there. The rest of the people didn't seem to like them being there.... fuckin posh pompous kids. Anyway, I was invited to continue at other clubs with them, but UNFORTUNANETLY had to decline since I had to drive some guys home..... Otherwise I would have stayed and rolled cigarettes with them all night!!!!! "Hey man, whos the guy with the hat next to Trunksan?"
