Vinyl..Stories..Festival/
Athens..2007/
The festival took place in Technopolis, an old natural gas processing plant, now
"polished up" and converted into a center for all kinds of events: shows,
presentations, exibits and concerts.
All the old gas processing equipment are left as they were, creating an interesting
decoration.
They were two main buildings, where they had the exibits and in front of them, was
the stage for the concerts.
Here's the outdoors (clear nights and high temperatures):
This is the bazaar building, filled with people buying vinyl (my paintings hanging
on the walls).
This is the rock phorography building - check it out!
What a great place for an exibit....
Here's some photos of a couple of wild bands:
During the festival, there were a few greek bands playing both nights, but two stood out
that I enjoyed a lot:
One is Firewind - Metal/Prog.Metal
and the other is Nightstalker - Rock/Alternative/Metal.

This is what a fan had to say about all this:
The festival was organized by the Spacerockers team.

Next to the festival, on the same grounds, but seperate buildings (and seperate entrance fee...)
was the European Tattoo Convention, so I visited in the day time and took some photos
for the memories.
...I cought this security guard, shaving in the ladies room, sometime
in the early afternoon!
The Hell's Angels are everywhere these days...
