OMG at last...
Thanks for the info!

We have a tickets from 18/9 pay from ticketarena.gr.The tickets will be issued ,but from where?Ticketarena.gr office or PAOK Sport Center pay desk?

I have ticket for Thessaloniki too, clicked on "Pick up at the event" so I think there will be some place near to that place PAOK arena... I don't know for sure... I think its a fuckin mess out there in Greece... :shock:

Nice !!!!!
Hope the venue is up to the Prodigy challenge!!!

Charly_Says, билетите ще се вземат от нещо като щанд на тикетарена, между 18.30 и 21.30, концерта започва в 21.30 и приключва в 24.00, това е което ми дадоха като информация

In Both Shows (Athens and Thessaloniki) Prodigy will get on stage between 21:30 and 22:00.

Doors will open at about 19:00.

There will be a full announce from the promoters with all details next week.

Both Shows will end around Midnight.

_______________________________

"Pick up at the Event" means that you will pick up your ticket at the event!

There will be booths outside each venue where you ll show your id and order number and you ll get your ticket.

- IF - there are still tickets on sale there ll probably be two booths: One Selling Tickets, and one with a Ticket Arena Sign. Choose the Second!

These booths will open at 18:30. Please arrive early to avoid dissapointment.

These booths will be open until the begining of the concert (Band on Stage) unless there are still people waiting.

i hope someone who can change thinks will read this post. I don't know why but this new venue in Athens "Tae Kwon Do" has a sound system that any band that respects its music (and its audience) shouldn't use it (not even for annoy some stupid neighbors). I am not some sound specialist but when i pay some money i dont want to hear echoes. My personal experience of this place's acoustic was when zztop and gorilazz were trying to sing over the noise that this place creates. After all only as noise you can describe it ...not music.
I really hope that someone can inform as if prodigy are aware for the above informations (because they are informations, not rumors) and if there is anything done to make this place ear friendly.
Or if it is to late now , i really think that people who bought tickets the very first week for the gig 17/9 must also have the right to take their money back as those who has ticket for 16/9.
If none of these can happen then we will meet friday 17/9 outside Tae Kwon Do just to sell our tickets to people who believe that 48 euro is a good price just to see prodigy (even from distance) with their ears closed.

P.s I am not the only one with these believes about the "Place" just take a look around the web or just ask other bands who had try to perform there in the past!

Looking forward to see you in Athens and thanks in advance,

I heard the same thing about the acoustic.
They say that is shit,but TheProdigy bring their own sound equipment if that could help...

Anyway i think the gig shouldn't move from "Athinon Arena" and go to a place such as "tae kwon do" stadium coz of the acoustic and the capacity witch is not that big compared to "Athinon Arena".

I hope that we are all wrong...

Big Respect

The acoustics don't depend just from the hardware or the skills of the audio engineers but also from the space (dimensions, shape, matterial ect) so if the place is not the right one there is nothing you can do about it... there is no perfect hardware and audio engineers are not gods.
Just go and let the vibe get you.

Guys,

Does anybody know a nice cheap hotel near the PAOK Sports Arena in Thessaloníki?

Thank you

There isn't.
I suggest you stay in the town center and go to the Arena by bus or taxi.

Oh My God...what an EPIC night in Athens!
The lads gave us their best shot,i have no words...we were also an amazing audience,out of our minds and TheProdigy seem to enjoy that a lot
Highlights of the night for me were:

-When me and my mates were pointing at Rob and he was like "who me or Keith?" and then both laughed.
-When i pointed to Maxim and saw me saying to him respect man big respect!
-When Master L. played Religion!!! one of my favorite tracks by them,i could't believe it,i was SHOUTING and the people around me were like "wtf is he talking about...what track is this" hahaha bad for them
-When Maxim command as to get down low for the big explosion at SMBU...fuckin' epic-mental-divine!
-When after Take me to the hospital Liam grab one of his laptops and SMASH IT on stage!!!!!!!!!and we were praising him
-When Maxim was like "all my Greek people we owe this to you" and Liam drop No Good.....WTF No Good???this night could't go better!
-When we all singing Out Of Space it was a moment of full satisfaction and peace.
-And then when i was waiting for the lads to say good bye i hear Maxim saying "DO YOU WANT MORE???" YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
"this is called comanche" and this crazy night went more crazy and extended by this banging song!

In conclusion it was a hell of experience...better than expected...the lads were just perfect!
The only thing the most of as didn't like was the place...the acoustic was terrible at least at the front and the Ventilation system was crap(we were dying in there )but fuck it there were a lot better things than bad things!

The only thing for sure is that TheProdigy will be back and there will be performing in an open air gig with the double amount of crowd

I want to say a BIG FUCKIN' RESPECT to Liam,Maxim,Keith and the crew and a BIG FUCKIN' THANK YOU for that thing they gave to as!
