Athens
has anyone been recently?
I've been a couple of times before. First time was in 2006 and it was lovely, really nice. Second time was last year and things were a bit tense, like certain areas felt really uncomfortable to walk around, and police presence was far greater than before. They'd be cycling around at night with a baton in their hand, waiting to clock anyone who looked a bit unruly. So much has happened in the 18 months since I was last year, I don't really know what to expect. I'm doing a benefit gig for political prisoners of Greece and I know the police tend to dislike any form of anarchist activity so that should be interesting. I hope I don't get attacked by a Golden Dawn member for being gay and tanned.
Has anyone been this year? How was it?
