review by Panos ticket stub at bottom of page

The show was absolutely fantastic !!! Words cannot describe the feeling of that night...

One of the best shows i 've ever been to and by far the best within the last 5 years or so... Mark was great, the band performed close to perfection and the songs sounded even better than the LPs...A bit more electric and slightly faster than the studio versions (Pendulum, Hospital Roll Call) U n b e l i e v a b l e versions of The Winding Sheet, Borracho and Because of This !!!!!!!!!!!

What i can tell you is that Mark seemed pretty calm and pleased with the whole thing, and the crowd (about 1,500-2,000 in a dim lit reformed cinema) was enthusiastic even to songs that i suspect were new to them...This is not generally the rule for the greek audience but as it seems the guy is a legend around here, even if that is so mostly thanks to the Trees era...
