Description:

For those of you that have previously enjoyed the music of Jimi Hendrix, AC/DC, Queen, Pink Floyd, Fleetwood Mac, The Who, Thin Lizzy, Motley Crue & The Rolling Stones played live in a stadium or theatre, whether by the great originals or a top tribute band, this event will truly add another dimension to the experience.
Are You Experienced? Live Wire, The Bohemians, Think Floyd, Fleetwood Bac, Who’s Next, The Thin Lizzy Experience, The Dirt & The Stones, the foremost U.K. tribute bands, will be playing music from that classic rock era, at a venue like no other. The beautiful Greek island village of Lindos next to the Aegean Sea.
They will be joined by Not the P.L.O.T., Stonewire & Stone Free, 3 of the best rock covers bands in the country with a huge repertoire of classics + some of their own great songs. Also The Ben Poole Band will be returning after their sensational debut at Rhodes Rock 2011 with their own brand of Blues Rock. These 4 bands will be in Lindos for 2 weeks from 16-30 June & will be gigging in the Lindos bars, hotels & nightclubs at VIP exclusive events throughout the 2 weeks. The gig schedule will be advised to VIP clients before they travel so they can plan their holiday. Please note that some of the bars & clubs have capacity limits so you’ll need to come early to ensure entry.
The white sugar cube houses clustered at the foot of the ancient acropolis, the sandy beaches, the tavernas, restaurants & bars &, of course, the friendly locals make it one of the favourite holiday destinations for those in the know.
Since the early 1960's many people return year after year unable to do without their annual Lindos fix whilst others have succumbed totally & moved there. In the early years this Aegean paradise was a haven for foreign artists, writers & musicians whilst in the 70's tourism began to play it's part & the locals began to convert some of their houses into pensions, tavernas & bars with sunbeds & umbrellas beginning to appear on the beaches.
As well as famous actors, writers & artists, Pink Floyd also made the village one of their homes in the early 70's & David Gilmour still owns a villa in the village. David's family still visit regularly & sometimes the great man himself returns to see his many friends in Lindos. Other rock stars have been regular visitors over the years sometimes staying in David's house. However, please be aware that locals & regular visitors always respect their privacy & if you come to Lindos & by chance you see a familiar face you will be expected to do the same.  
Among the bands' friends are bar owners & restauranteurs who can sometimes be persuaded to re-tell some of the anecdotes of life with Pink Floyd. Try Dimitris & Michalis Mavrikos' restaurant in the village square or Socrates' Bar where there is the constant sound of great classic rock music & photos of Socrates with various rock stars on the 400 year old walls.
This festival of Classic Rock takes place in the magical village of Lindos with 2 show nights at Pauls Bay in the shadow of the 2,500 year old Acropolis and another in front of the ancient amphitheatre. Featuring all of the Floyd, Queen, Hendrix, AC/DC, Fleetwood Mac, Rolling Stones & Who classics, the bands will be paying homage to the rock gods for 3 nights spread over the 22nd, 23rd & 26th June 2012.
For those on the 2 week holiday there will be live gigs every night in the bars, hotels & clubs.
Imagine it ! Flying to the beautiful Greek island of Rhodes with a plane full of Floyd, Who, Fleetwood Mac, Thin Lizzy, Hendrix, Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Queen & Motley Crue fans for company & a week or two in the sun seeing where it all happened in the 70's & 80's & talking to the people who were there. And the bands will be around during the holiday to talk to & buy drinks for !!
