That's why Athens was left out of the tour schedule, Lumi. These ameteurs of "Di Di Music" know that people are still angry with them. Noone trust them, anymore. God, 50,000 buyers last summer said "stop messing me about and give all the money you owe me...". Everyone thinks "in a borderline case of another cancellation, i don't want to have the same troubles". Unfortunately, for various reasons the local promoter of 1998 gig doesn't undertake the job.

What the hell are you talking about? Do you mean something like "terrorism threat"?? Oh, don't worry. There is a huge difference between the Stones rolling into town and G. Bush arriving with his escort- if you mean something like that. We love the Stones...
